Hi to everyone on this great forum. Im new to this forum but am a member on 3 large forums here in Britain. Skylineowners being the one i tend to use more.

Im currently running an R33 GTS-t thats putting out 549bhp with a whole host of goodies that can take it even higher, but its still on a standard engine so cant do much more without breaking it lol.

The main reason i've come over to this sight is to get as much info on the RB30 engines as im going to get an RB30 bottom end (preferrably forged) to get at least 50% more than i have now. Im probably going to be a right pain asking questions all over the place so i can get any issues sorted before i get it in order to make the conversion as easy and smooth as possible.

Thanks and much appreciation to all on this great forum.

Regards, Thwish

Hope you're getting good info on ur RB30 Thwish.

From the implication of your NAME, if you DO break your engine, I'd like to see You Tube footage of your car taking a flying leap off a Dover cliff. It'd be a nice contrast against the whiteness hehe

    • The title should have posted "EFR7670 exhaust housing selection RB26" I can seem to edit thr title on my Android.
    • I'm looking for some real world experiences/feed back from anyone who has personally ran a EFR7670 with a 1.05 exhaust housing or a .83 I'm leaning towards the .83 because its a street car used mostly for spirited driving in the canyons roads. I"m not looking for big numbers on paper. I want a responsive powerband that will be very linear to 8000 rpm. I dont mind if power remains somewhat flat but dont want power to drop off on top. The turbo I've purchased is a 1.05, although the mounting flange T3 vs T4 and internal vs external waste gates are different on both housings, I not concern about swapping parts or making fabrication mods to get what I want. Based on some of the research I've done with chat gpt, the 1.05 housing seems to be the way to go with slightly more lag and future proofing for more mods but recommends .83 for best response/street car setup. AI doesn't have the same emotions as real people driving a GTR so I think you guys will be able to give me better feed back 😀   
    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
    • This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?
    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
