Hey,

Finally signed up so I could start posting. Hoping I can get help with my fruitless search for another R30.

Had one a few years ago, nice white manual '83 sedan, L24E with coated extractors and 2.5" exhaust (very loud) that was professionally re-routed (including body work) to passenger side. Nicely lowered with r31 silhouette wheels, without the naff plastic covers of course.

But as it was parked in a public area for a while, the govt took it away from me (so what if it was unregistered with out of state plates?). I expect I an still using bits of it so shave in the morning.

Was a fine car and am now searching for another to replace it as fun project car. Aim for nice restoration perhaps with a multi-throttle body set up.

If anyone knows where I can get another r30, L24E powered manual sedan, I'd be sooooo happy....

      List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter?

      @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand

      It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
