hi guys. what power have you done on standanrd bottomend rb30s and on what boost and what turbo? il have mine going soon and wanna know what power you guys have done.

mines a rb30 bored 1mm oversize with new mahle pistons and rings and king bearings. standard rods and bolts. has rb25det oil pump on crank collar. what power do you rekn itd do on 18psi with a t04z with split pulse 0.84 rear? hopefully not too much for standard motor. hopefully want it to cop 450rwhp for a while on pump fuel. i dont really thrash my cars everywhere but that might change when i get one with a bitta power.

does the ones ripsnz have on youtube saying standard internals have anything done to them special? ones running 25psi plus 100hp shot of nos. its 650whp it says i think. and few other ones with heaps of power and he says there all good for that power. just been wondering if he does any tricks on them to make them last.

If you have aftermarket pistsons and stuff... Why are you asking about standard bottom ends?

Either way if you only want 450rwhp, the T04Z is a very bad choice, a GT3076 in a 1.06 would be the pick for 320-330rwkw.

A T04Z is 600rwhp territory. A signifigant difference.

there only cast pistons so id assume theyre about the same strength as the factory nissan ones. and the bearings wont help it take any extra power would it? the rest is standard nissan stuff.

will get more power out of it later. only wanna buy the turbo once but.

If you're buying aftermarket pistons then why go cast? save a bit more and get some forgies.

But really, how long is a piece of string?

Good balancing, good balancer and a good tune should see it live a longer life than if you did none of those things.

i have done the same and just used some aftemarket cast pistons as they were needed due to worn block and only cost 300 bucks with rings. If you do forgies then its the rods as the weak link and then oil pump and on and on it goes. I decided to save the $1750 and just limit the setup to under 500rwhp. I have one engine running a 3076r and its currently not running the correct cam timing so power is down but its running 22psi and 330rwhp. This shall be retuned very soon to around 400hp or so when i get some spare time to do it. Another engine the same exact setup will be using a hks t04z and we shall see how it lasts with 500rwhp or so. Just finishing off the final touches to the donar car at this stage so wont be running for a while yet.

I'll let you know as well. By accident rather than design I will have all the good gear in my sig on an RB30/25 stock except for new rings bearings and rod bolts. [Would have preferred to have it rebored forged pistons and balanced] With the stuff I have it should make the 500hp ok but for how long is the question. I will be relying on a good tune and 6,800 rev limit to make it last so if it doesn't quite hit the 500hp so be it. Anything over 300awkw will be a bonus

r33 N1 turbos are supposed to be good to 550 hp at the engine.

Im shooting for 400 atw or 18 psi what ever comes first, But the small N1 should give great throttle response

http://homepage.ntlworld.com/tbroom/Turbos.htm

I thought N1s didnt have great response for their size, so you could go a larger newer turbo that would have the same response but better top end.

Yeah but I have the turbos and will go with them until I feel like i need more.

if I can crack 400 at the treads it will be enough

Pits will be tuning it and the brief will be 18psi or 400 when you get to one of those stop

Slappers on big turbos do NOT last long...

I've broken 2 now... With a max of 1000KM on them... Pushing 1Bar (14PSi) through TD07S housings, t66 front and a t04r rear wheel.

Nothing below 4000/4500RPM, then everything ramps in over 200/300RPM...

Rev limited at 6600RPM.

On the dyno it made "250RWKW" wheel spinning like a spastic... Using fuel consumption and AFR it would be making around 360RWKW... (69% inj duty on 880cc injectors)

    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
