hr30 is 2dr yes? and dr30 is 4dr?

HR30 is a 4 door at least mine is

also you might not have to upgrade the brakes if it is a HR30 as they came with a l20 et 6 cyl turbo engine

aussie MR30 came with non turbo l24 or l28

i have R30 workshop maual if you ever wan to look through it

sorr it aint for sale lol i need it for my HR30

Edited by gazza750

sweet as gazza that would be awesome as im goin to do somethings with the car on thursday and im planning my first lot off stuff to do with it and yeh that manual would be bloody awesome to look at! If not ill just have to source one out!

Yeh cheers bois with the info on the 30, love the fact that its actually a 30 cos ive got a few parts on the car that are 31 and now i no they interchange with everything easly afta looking at everything that it hasnt been customized makes it even betta!

check out this part of the forum http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Cl...ylines-f77.html

lot of info on dr/hr30.

you will find lots of parts can be interchange from r31, if i remember right you can also uses the brakes from a r32/33 if you do a 5 stud conversion.

pretty sure sr20 fit nicely into dr30/hr30

ive done the whole thread on the sr20 conversion it was my first thought but dont have that sort of money for it!

One thing i no of is that i would neva go r32 brakes as i have seen a mate ditch it with stock brakes and a stock engine on his r32 gtst.

And if i was to go brake upgrade with 5 stud conversion id be lookin at the r34s and thatll be min bout 2gs and i dont have that yet so im leavin it as is for now, until i get some real big money behind me

you don't need to go 5 stud for 32/33 brakes, you can get blank rotors drilled to 4x114.3

noobz, you could bin a car with big brembo's, it depends what your doing at the time. 32 brakes will be an improvement over what you have now.

lol yeh bois lol

neways i was actually already thinkin bout the 25 lata but didnt no if it was a good choice between that and the sr20 (i no a guy usin a sr20det in a torana thats runnin 8s)

But yeh i might even later wen i save the money for it upgrade the rear axle to a 34 so i have the brembos and the betta diff and stabelisors!!!

But yeh its gona be atleast a 2 year build to make it perfect and running how we wont it so yeh gona be awesome!!!

It has no engine atm that y if u look at the front pic closely, its raised bout 2"s...

neways triston man if u wont ill pm u the list of stage mods im doin to make it more interesting and show u wont im up to at that time hehehe

do you know what engine the car came with std?

If it was an fj20, i would be looking at putting an sr20 in it or another fj20.

fj20 are bullet proof, if looked after. Not sure if the 20/25 box will fit without modding the tunnel.

what do you plan to do with the car? quick street car? track warrior? dyno queen? drag car? etc etc

well today im going to look at and get pics of the rb20 that ive sourced out, so im gona be gettin that dropped in.

Well i have major things for this, not much of a dyno king, but itll be there.

its gona be build for a quick street car, show car, SPL car, and just a couple runs down the drags just to see portenial times...

But yeh goin bak to see the car today as well as checkin out the engine so expect a few more pics up tonite!!!

cheap power is to turbo a na rb30. $300 motor, $1000 turbo converson, cooler kit $500 way under budget and will eat ANY 20. and last longer.

meh my 2 cents, i have built plenty of turbo 31s with 20s and 30s always had stock brakes with good pads. they are fine.

some people go way over board, unless you are doing stupid speed in busy traffic.

    • Drilled the rubber out on a slow speed and it didn't catch much at all. Probably only half a dozen holes was enough to shred the rubber and it dropped off easily leaving the inner sleeve behind. Will tackle that later
    • I havent bought a manual cover for the dash yet and no cluster change, won't bother me too much, I just need to get that auto box gone, manual in! I miss my manual. 🤪. We started last weekend and managed to get the box out. Planning to start putting it in this weekend and then order a single piece tail. We were super careful to take time and not damage anything. It's my first time working under the car.  With my S15 mainly worked in the bay. This time, it was a headache because of three or four bolts only. They simply didnt want to leave thei homr and the one securing the tailshaft, another above the GB, and the one securing the lipstick was a shit. Mates mate, Davo caught fire 🤣, nearly opened his chest up with a grinder 🤦🏽‍♂️ and both mates nearly had a plate from the box land and slit their head open. Fun times. We all survived. Not the easiest working with limited access on jackstands. As I'm sure we can agree these are the memories which make us love our car. For all three of us, was an awesome weekend and Sunday 3.30am before tools down was a fantastic effort. I need to upload pics, but looks like it needs to be via Url now. We used to be able to just upload pics back in the day. It's been that long! 🤪 Im currently spraying rustoleum under body, not because it's rusted. It's super clean, but just so it's protected for the next 10 years. There was a few surface rust spots. Which pretty much wiped off with a 3M scourer.  Really impressed with how well the previous owner maintained it. Bank account went down so quick! Service, then GB - managed to get a spanking new 34 genuine box from Nissan. All the rest of the conversion parts from Kudos.  Went with a Nismo short shifter. New pedals and Exedy Clutch and FW. Ordered the Prp Rear Main Retainer kit which should arrive Friday and my first engine mod part just like I did with my S15 will be the Tomei Expreme Turbo Outlet. Already on order. It'll likely sleep next to me on a pillow during the coming months. 🥰 Last build was on my JET200GT profile and on SAU and Hardtuned I had documented the build. Planning to try to do that again. Brands feel scarce now. Wish we still had ARC and Apexi parts readily available. Exhaust - need some advice on this. I had an Apexi exhaust on the S15 and loved the tone. My mate had a HKS HP Silent on his 33 and suggested I go with that to avoid drone. I can't remember hearing an RB25DET running that so will likely need to wait for a meet or something to hear it.  Not after big power, just enjoy building it, and drivability with minimal negative attention.
    • Have a chat with Ben at Moore Performance or Jesse at JS Performance.
    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
