The rb30 'forklift' (thanks paul) will pick up and crush an rb26 in every aspect of performance let alone the rb25 :D

The r35gtr has increased capacity for every logical reason, easy and effortless power delivery.

My previous rb26 feels like a 2 stroke in comparison haha.

Anyways, will be good to get your take on it when you kick your rb30 in the guts

shouldnt be too far away. Elite dan built the new dump pipe today. all thats left is to plumb in the gate and a cuppla minor things and we are hopefully away.

I'm hoping you're right marko. :thumbsup:

Hopefully you'll obtain the same sense of satisfaction 'stacking crates' as we do. :(

Mark, don't u mean " stacking cars" hehe

To date, not 1 car has fallen off my forks...to hell with it, I'm looking at stackings motorbikes, much more challenging

Get my context :O

LOL, they do get a fright when they try to "flex their muscles" and you start gaining on them :banana:

It's a horse!!!!

yes...30 bottom ends give you an instant increase in length...your Mrs will be walking like John Wayne tomorrow.

Marko Polo...my lowly RB26 made 550AWKW with 26psi using 98 from the BP the other night.

U got that right paul, chicks flock for the bigger bottom end.

Btw that is a great result...550awkw from a baby rb26 hehe

wasted in a forklift....rb30s belong in tow cars :)

Duncan, I am truly disappointed in you...how about I give u a taste of the big bottom end?

Stevo, robbie ward will put these guys in place :) I might just send him a pm to stir the pot

At what revs?

For those that give a tinkers toss.

18 lb of boost. 7000 rpm, 470 hp. tons of fuel in it, but quite happy to run it there for a bit just to make sure all is well. It brings boost on 1000 rpm sooner than the 25.

Cant wait for 25 lb. :)

At what revs?

you will have to ask Mrs Line that question as ive already ran it past Noel and he insisted a gentleman never speaks.

Oh you were refering to my car...sorry...

it was at idle with the choke pulled out about 3/4 of the way.

I'm going to assume we are still talking about cars :|

but that sounds like a fair swap - you can take my tow car for a drive and I can make sure your gtr works ok.

whats that in metric? don't you guys have that yet??

i love how much more easily the 3l make solid useable power. 3.4l will be the next big trend. there is indeed no substitute for cubes

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
