OS Giken 3.0 litre kit for around the $20K mark. But there are bigger kits than this..........Spool was looking at a 3.2 and a 3.4 kit.
$20K!!!!

or Rb30 for $200 (or realistically $5 to $10k fully forged and balanced etc)

Charlie still has his apexi 2.9 kit for sale.

There is also some company out there that is de-stroking rb30 cranks to 83mm, running standard rb26 rods and custom pistons to make an RB29.

User 'Mark99' on this forum was the machinist that developed the stroker kit from memory. I cant remember what the company was called though.

I think he worked for Rhemac in Adelaide.

the 3.2 and 3.4l kits by spool are for rb30 blocks not rb26

Yep, not sure if they will adapt to 4wd, but I'm pretty sure it has been done for the rb30. But I've got a funny idea that the 3.2/3.4 crank throw will not allow the 4wd front housing.............did I read it or am I dreamin' - can somebody correct me???

RB30DET FTW!

That RB31DETT will just be a slightly overbored RB30.

Nitto do the 3.2L kits for RB30 (soon?)

Spool do the 3.4L kits for RB30 (soon)

And I think RIPSNZ do a 3.2L aswell?

OR save your money and just built an RB30DET.. you'd only need the extra 200-400cc if running a HUGE turbo.

P.S. I love my 30 :(

love the comments on the rb31 block

i read his thread the other day

he has made it an rb26 open deck with new sleeves, rods and pistons and an rb30 crank

give a better bore-stroke ratio or something and is designed for driveability, torque and response

he has put a lot of work into it but its still in testing and will eventually be on sale once everything is tested thoroughly

on topic, if you want more displacement then you can't look past an rb30 with the 4wd adapter

r.i.p.s in nz will make you a forged bottom end with the adapter and ship it to oz, bolt it in, add your head and away you go

There are a few places now that do a RB30 adapter to run awd. Id say get a dirty 30 bottom end and a Nitto 3.2 crank. They say its good for 1200hp and 10,000rpm.

i like the sound of that.... on the other hand the sound of the price mite not be so good. haha

    • I also used Knox driveshafts when I the slip yoke T56 to the 3bolted TR6060 type. I believe I was one of his first jobs as it literally changed hands when I was there, started by the old owner and finished by the new. Everyone seemed pretty great about it. So wasn't shy/seemed pretty knowledgeable when dealing with weird custom people like me.
    • Just a reminder orange park was cool back in the day   and drifting the main circuit was even cooler   f**k I miss that car  
    • We used Knox Drive shafts years ago when we were doing gravel rally, good guy but I heard it had changed hands? He's got a lot of stuff and is miles cheaper than GJ and so on. He used to have a lathe setup with a MIG torch on the tool holder so he could get the uni welds just right, quite a clever guy. I just got a driveshaft done for my sequential installation and that was through Balancing Services Australia in Preston, they did the Gibson cars in the old days. New genuine CV's, billet yoke, new centre bearing and chome moly shaft was $2k.
    • Thanks for sharing that mate, I've got a couple of spares on the shelf but all the unis are tight....will give old mate a shout. BTW are you sure it wasn't just a $400 paint job? Any detail of what they replaced (cut/reweld?)
    • Yeah I saw that about the US Q50 recently, apparently it was shown to Inifiniti dealers (probably to help with their depression about the cars they can sell). Seemed like a really obvious step to me, the platforms are very similar in many ways. Even if there aren't many people who actually put the money up it should really help with image/reputation. What hasn't been clear anywhere if that is a V38 model of if they are just going to add the trans as an option in a new model year. What they did with the Z from 370z to "Z" is just weird so I'd be surprised if they released this as a V38. Great news for me to have an option; it is far from confirmed that I can get any decent track sessions through the auto so having a manual I can swap to is great.
