Mines just a dead RB30E ATM... Gotta start somewhere tho :)

I think Trina is gunna flip at "another" car bit as it is... So, your out of luck sorry Pred :D

Now I have to read that long arse RB30DET thread... And start to choose pistons, rods, etc...

*sigh*

rb30det is the way to go if you want a lot of power..

yeah, read through most of that several times :) i really have to work out how much its gonig to cost me, and what else i might need to spend money on.

So will be at least 6 months before i really think about mine. I asked around a bit and would probably cost at least $5k or so, depending on whether you go forged rods, etc.. And thats just the bottom.. never mind turbo, installation (assume you're doing that yourself :D ).. etc.

hehe - really only joking about the storage.. this is why the places i have been looking at renting *must* have a garage.. for all my car crap (and cars)..lol

Mmmm... Just started reading it... Looks like standard rods and crank are good for 350rwkw...

This is getting cheaper by the hour!

yeah.. just get em prepped :D In fact the whole bottom end is probably good for around 250rwkw or maybe more as they have cast pistons.. as my engine was just removed for a conversion and is still pretty fresh - i was even thinking of just dumping the head on, getting it all fitted up and just running it for a while like that.. if something breaks just has to come out and get built properly :)

Nah my 30 has got low comp as it is... So, I'm gunna take my time, and make it STRONG...

RB30's suck. Haven't seen a good one yet. Even John Munro's OS 3ltr was a waste of money, just ask him

look at the australian street car drag list though.. and some of them are even SOHC.. mattlow has/had ? a 11sec gts-t in melb using a 3L bottom end..

There are a lot of shitty engine builders out there though.

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
