Why would someone buy a 40K Tomei engine if they could buy this ^^ And plug it into the RB26

IS there something i should know about the RB30DETT?

[snozzle]

thats only a short block, it does not have a cylinder head on it etc

Yeh but if you have a GTR already wouldnt this be better then the 2.8 tomei?

Sorry i meant better then Stroking it to a 2.8L

Tomei - your paying for a name & some stickers!

[Beer Baron]

not sure a tomei engine is $40K either.... but yeah it's a good package for $10K no question.

Doesn't a short block come with heads but no accessories?

[Beer Baron]

nope, short motor is no head. with head is long motor.

better question would probably be,

why would someone pay 30k for an OS giken 3l or 3.15 block compared to a RB3O bottem end.

Its just a preferance, and generally, quality.A TOMEI 2.8 fits in the bay easier than a RB30 also.

Not saying that there arent a lot of quality RB30's out there, but there certainly are cheaper ones and dearer ones...

RB30 still a cheaper option either way.

So cool! Wish they had this kinda stuff and tuners here in Malaysia. And not having the authorities limiting CC upgrades!
