Hey guys just have few questions as im on the fence about going the rb26/30 or building a rb26 with n1 block from scratch. Ive read all i could find on here about the 26/30 way and the torque gains etcc and less revs to get the power etcc.I couldnt realy find much on people who had gone and stuck with the 26.Ive asked afew mechanics who have done the 26/30 and done a rebuild 26 and half have said to stick with 26 and half say go the 26/30.Some have said not to bother with the rb30 bottom end as its not really worth it as u can get the same if not better from a 26bottom end? Alot of the jap gtrs i see seem to be all 2.7 2.8 with some being 3ltr.Is there a reason the japs stick to the the 26 bottom end and not many look at the rb30 bottom end ?

If anything ive said is wrong sorry just from what i have read seen or heard.

Any one here done both the full build on a rb26 and then tryed a rb30 ? I just think personally the thing that makes the gtr "special" if i may is the rb26.

    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
    • Hey all. I’m looking on replacing my speed sensor on my R33 GTR. Will the center differential need to be drained, and if so, the center diff uses ATF fluid D? I found information on the transmission, front diff and rear diff. Can’t find a for sure answer for the center diff. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
