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.

    • Spotted in Adelaide last week.... mine! New to me two weeks ago.. love it!
    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
