any tips on the rb30

Sell it :)

All jokes aside, it really depends on what sort of set up your chasing, if you want it to remain legal/street registered or a trailer queen? Whats your budget, auto/manual, are you only wanting to do engine work or rest of drive train etc???

Give us some more details and we can offer some advice :)

i would like a rb30 turbo setup not sure to go rb25 head tho street legal registered budget is 6000+ i have a mf5 5speed and just looking to do the engine at the moment

Well would pay to look around for a blown rb25det with harness

Then bolt it together then get a plenum, high mount turbo about a gt3540 size, power fc, 550cc injectors and you should get about 270-280rwkws or so

thank you mate

Or not, I mean you could buy all the same stuff, good standalone ecu, or Nistune for the stock ECU, and make the same power with the original head for the price of a couple of psi more boost.

$6k won't get you an RB25 head swap and good support parts, but you might squeak it in with the SOHC head.

well im doin up a a rb30 and just after any tips at the moment its my first time

Is it an N/A VL? I'm assuming it is.

Your gearbox will limmit you to around 200 rwkw... after that it will break. (If it's a VL turbo box.... 250 rwkw and not much more.)

Dont bother with a twin cam swap...

Basic Recipe:

- Basic re-build, with turbo pistons, good bearings and good oil pump. Clean the head up and use a new timing belt

- New injectors, z32 afm, upgraded ignition coil, nistune and a VL turbo computer.

- Front mount intercooler, VL turbo exhaust manifold, T3 flanged- internal wastegate turbo of choice and plumbing.

- Ancillaries... clutch, consumables, hoses, pipe work, exhaust, intake, plugs etc...

Tune it and go...

BUT- Dont forget to upgrade your brakes, suspension and brain.

If you want a quick streeter, keep it simple. if you want to go fast... how fast do you want to spend???

cheap- reliable- fast ... pick 2.

If this is your first build up... be warned, cars and speed is addictive!

Cheers

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
