yeay! :)

picked him up from ESP today and am fairly happy, still got a few issues to sort but thats cars.

194.8@5psi

224@9psi

for some reason the clutch was slipping andit had a boost leak which resulted in the cooler pipes blowing off a couple of times and next time Glen said he will spank me if bring tyres that have been sitting in the sun for 10 years...

Very happy with ESP (even though they hate my 31 now) i cant recommend them enough.

now will someone book a track day for me.

You forgot to mention the mountain of torque that it makes James... Thats why the clutch was slipping.

My guess for the final figure (when all the bugs are ironed out) is:

253rwkw @ 14.4psi (1 Bar).

700nm torque

P.S. It sounds like a chainsaw on steroids! :P

RB30 w/ RB25 head.

great numbers mate!

my car makes about the same number at those boost levels, but in HP! hahah

thanks :thumbsup:

mirandas little video of me putting it away after it got dropped off.

To quote Miranda in that video - "hehe that's cool".

It looks hardcore when it's rolling (must be the sick black on yellow paint job) :worship:

P.S. It sounds like its going to need a large muffler before it goes out to the hillclimb or they'll kick you off for being too loud :(

Quick question ... who built your RB30DE setup ?

im looking to build an RB30DE (non turbo) in future and was after a bit of knowlege on the build as I would like to build the motor myself but need to know about the machining of the block and head etc...

timing belt tensioners , timing belt , oil pump etc...

the guy/workshop who put it together is in Adelaide, you dont want hes name, did a shit house job... :P

this guide is pretty comprehensive though, its in the first post.

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
