WOW Dirtygarage you are amazing and if anyone didn't already know it I'm sure you'll start a thread telling them how amazing you are. As per usual you'll build a RB30 redesign the wheel in doing so then crow how great it is and expect all to forget how much in the past you've bagged them as they are a forklift motor.

I would have said something more along the lines of a BOAT motor the way them vl's dirve!!!

Oops shit Paul, Sorry haha we wouldnt want that now!

Andrew you mean the RPMGTR thread :)

Hey Steve, dont think it was race pace. Rhemac was the one i think

My RB30DET with a totally stock rb25 head, cams are stock as well. no mods no port jobs nothing makes full power by 3700rpm and it does not drop off all the way to red line.

Can you get a RB26 to have a flat power curve like this? if so.. show me.

There was also a mark99 here in SA that built an RB29 using an rb26 block, slightly destroked rb30 crank, forged rods and custom low pin height pistons.

Rev'd to 8.5k and made some awesome power. There's a dyno sheet laying around some where that was posted.

The rod angles are of concern but it has held together without any issues so it may be a moot point.

Something else to add to the fire with your rb30 boys..

rb30 block with rb26 crank... There was a post on here a while back from an engine shop down south! dig that up it had some pretty nice looking results!

Since rb30 and rb26 both have the same bore, wouldn't a rb30 block with a rb26 crank just be... a rb26?

Wow :banana:

yes. anyone heard of the hks "hi-deck"....albeit 2.8L

have a search on gtr.co.uk/forum dave, i remember seeing atleast 1 setup on there.

but form what i recall its like the kakimoto hi-deck where its a compression deck with liners

Bottom end first

But yes, I will take you up on your offer from that call

Everyone knows that big cams get the chicks Steve-o

I didn't know you liked doing the bottom end first still, i thought therapy fixed that? ... Zing

Throw away the little ones and put in the 280's.

I want to get rid of them :banana:

I don't know why people are so afraid of spending the money on a big head job :s

Selling 2 kidneys is not advised.

Would be better to throw the money at developing a new block.

A good head job is always the most satisfying way to 'blow' your cash.

PM me a price on the 280's Aaron...i might take them.

Thats an unfair advantage Guilt-Tripper...you tuned it!

Coming right up Sir Boost Alot

nope, rb30 block is taller by 38mm

Wouldn't that completely mess up the compression ratio's then? I'm still trying to get my head around how it would actually work, putting a rb26 crank into a rb30. The block is taller, yes, but doesn't that mean your going to run into problems because the rb26 crank will still have the same travel, even when its put into the rb30

Not too far of the mark

overall terms, your graph is flatter for a section, this one comes up a bit smoother

Do you have a larger pic of the graph for km/h and/or RPM to look at?

A good head job is always the most satisfying way to 'blow' your cash.

I see what you're saying now; if you 'blow' your cash -presumably a 'wad' of it or at least the cost of a good 'pearl necklace'- on a good RB26 head job you can't 'come' at or 'swallow' the idea of the RB30 being better, and suggest that anyone who thinks otherwise is being 'sucked in'.

Have I got that right?

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
