They're that bad are they? I've heard good and bad about them, was thinking I'd try them out myself but seeing they're close, ah wells.

yes they are. Should of gone around the corner to Edwardstown custom body reapais or even more south to hounslow crash :ninja:

well your just silly then.

Why pay $30,000 for a parts kit that you can do in Australia for $50.

RIPS are pulling over 10,000 rpm on burn out and 1400HP on a standard RB30 block with standard crank and crank girdle.

ugh. gtr purists. im siding with dale. f**k spending $30k on some liners and a bolt on deck when i can jump on the club and find a 30e bottom end for less than $50.

and ive heard of quite a few of the os kits failing at life. id be pretty torn up about $30k going to waste, but i wouldnt give 2 shits about a 50 buck bottom end.

*just had a look at the kaki kit, seems waaaaay too cheap.

makes the perfectly nice car look a little cheapish and nasty / track hack job imo.

and i could 'almost dig it'. the splits a little off. if it was something like this,

itd be rad, and i actually would dig it.

Think I should of called before I went for a drive, went all the way to MC Doyles Crash Repairs and they were closed... as in like they didnt pay their bills and got shut down. Guess I'll have to take my business elsewhere...

that really isnt a bad thing.

that Kaki* kit is only sleeves and a block deck so no $1500 is not that cheap

Dan its about 450-600 to get an AWD adapter plate for the RB30 but a deck is a stronger better RTA friendly option you keep your original engine number

No pos RB30 bottom ends should be in a GT-R imo

:)

Dont get me wrong, I'm all for twin cam RB30's in VLT's, GTSTs, etc but not a GT-R... C'mon lol

Putting an rb26/30 in a gtr isnt a bad idea, if you use the car for performance or any kind of motorsport

keep the 26 stock tho if you want a streeter that'll hold its value - if I had two gtr's, I'd def put a 26/30 in the 2nd one

This is actually a blessing for you. PM me if you want further info but I wouldn't send my worst enemy there...

And I'm a big GTR fan but nothing wrong with a 26/30. Shit, I'd build one would it be not for the legality issues and all. Don't fancy ripping out a motor to visit Regency

with all this talk of rb30's, im feeling good, just a cam, turbo..and a manual conversion away!

Also, whoever owns a 100 series Landcruiser...you sir or madam, know how to select a good car!

Definatly the best 4x4 ive driven, and the easiest to work on. :)

would it really be noticeable to the untrained eye though? (having a 26/30)

Easily. The RB30 block causes the head to be situated very high compared to the stock 26, pm cubes and ask him about how much clearance he actually has (he reckons its not a lot)... cant run a strut brace with a 26/30 unfortunately

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
