Hey Guys

Well I'm planning on a new project car for myself ocne i get rid of my onevia *plug*

So anywho, as it stands, I'll be chasing just an S13 Silvia. The plan is to throw in an RB30 with a 25 head on it :D

I'd like to hear from anyone who has attempted this or anyone who can provide some info on it for me

Cheers

Chris

doo it doo it..

don has an RB30DE with twin throttle bodies, and badr33 has just done it as well... both with quite nice results...

from what i gather the power to cost gains arent overly good, but its damn good to have something different.

i'd honestly like to do this conversion hey go all out with this motor would be sweet. RB26 head, individual trumpets, light weight pistons and all the supporting gear for a good 8,9 maybe even 10k redline would be sweeeeeeeeeeeeet. just not the price though :D

Cheers man that was really helpful! Anyone else like to share some experiences?

And another question - would it be basically the same having an rb25de with an rb30 bottom end as opposed to an rb30 with an rb25de head?

      Would be easier to just run the RB25DET gearbox, all you would need to do is have the tail shaft / prop shaft shortened. S15 uses the rear ABS diff sensor for the dash speedo, so you can skip using the gearbox speed sensor.

      Was the failed sensor by any chance this one? Did it just fail or start pissing on itself? I ordered one too, for fuel pressure monitoring, and now I am hesitant to put it in, hehe. Where did you find a brand one?

      You'd be insane, when a brand new 8HP is ~$4k, and all the work to put a 6 in would cost the same as an 8 and the 8 is a completely established swap. If you think that getting a cheap Falcon box is going to make it a cost effective exercise, then you're not accounting for the extra $10-15k that the task will consume.

      They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.
