Errrr man... u have the bottom end listed as $4500... and the top end listed as $3300 which comes to a total of $7800 if purchased seperately.

But you want $8300 for the lot... now thats cool if thats how you wanna do it, but usually its a discount not an increase if you take the lot, thought you mighta made a boo boo somewhere.

Also im pretty sure you mean an RB30E Series 2 Block... as far as i know there was never a twin cam version of the RB30 ever released, hence the point of doing the conversion.

(plz dont think im taking a shot at you either, just thought if you fixed up those couple of errors might help ya sell it, looks like a real solid package, good luck with your sale)

I cant remember what i paid for it. I think it was about $1800 or $2000. Horsepowerinabox sell the same turbo for $2350 so i either got mine cheap, or the prices went up.

I'd accept $1800 for the GT3040R. Its specs again are 0.7/0.82, and it requires an external gate.

Afraid not... but I do have a brand spankin' new GT3040R 0.7/0.82 700hp garret turbo. Its still in the shipping box, never opened. That was for this engine as well...

It's a 600hp turbo (not 700hp). I have the same spec turbo on my car - good piece of kit :happy:

Good luck with the sale :(

    • I think in the modern era we live in, if I were converting a hydro lifter head to solid, particularly when chasing revs, I'd be seeing what I could do to use shimless buckets. Those of us with Neos usually have this persistent niggling fear of a shim getting spat out and ruining everything. Shim-over is...yucky that way. At least the Tomei kit appears to be conventional, but it would still be nice if they'd decided to go shimless.
    • Ok guys thank you very much. GCG highflow it is then 🙂 
    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock.
