rb30's done use main caps, they have a crank girdle. you can use stock main studs from Nissan without any problems or if you wanted to spend the money you can also buy ones from arp (I dont have the part number handy). I am not aware of anyone oversizing the mains.

I hope you aint building it yourself...

Sorry to point out, but so many of your posts seem condescending and intimidating. Chill brah!

:(

OP, what's the specs of your fuel system and turbo?

atm i have a 2 044's surge sys but isnt installed in car , as i am trying to sell my R32 as i am importing a r34 .

will be id2000's , 2 044's and 3L surge tank +fuel rail + fuel reg

and tossing up between to4z and t51r spl , not really sure yet ;)

T51r for sure! What about a KAI rather than a SPL? The SPL will be heaps laggier and the KAI would be much more efficient (i.e. less boost for the same power, cooler air charge -> more ignition advance = more power. KAI = more midrange, SPL = only top end.

T04zs are an old design and are pretty lazy, there's better options these days.

yer i haven't completely made up my mind, alot of people rag on to4z , But the fastst time attack car in NZ runs a stoker and to4z on gtr ;)

i want around the 500kw mark maybe a bit more on e85 but i dont wanna go jam a gt42 on to do it and turn it in to dyno queen (like few other cars atm pushing big numbers but are just useless)

T4 .82 housing is probably what you want on an RB30. Would make up to about 700hp before it ran out of flow. Then probably another 100hp ontop of that with E85 and advanced timing.

Correct me if I'm wrong, that's all just guess work!

Arent the ARP studs too long? I'm sure you will need to use washers so they don't bottom out?!?

I believe the issue with the ARP studs had to do with one stud needing a little trimming so it wouldnt interfere with the AWD sump in GTR conversion. But if youve chopped hell out of your sump and added extensions and modified baffles/windage/trapdoors etc (as most tend to do) then the stud problem probably dissapears too.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
