Let me know if there are others you want to know about..

so WTF is an MA09ERT? I have one downstairs?

well Duncan my friend that motor code describes homosexuality at it's finest...

MA - March - favourite month of the homos as they get to recover from februarys mardi gras poundings..

09 - is actually 0.9 in reference to the faggy capacity of their fagmobile motors

ERT - Erection Riding Time - Describes their favourite past time..

and you have one downstairs you say? :)

You are most probably correct in saying this. CA18DET motors are Nissan's strongest rated factory motor horsepower-wise. Basically, out of any performance Nissan motor, they can produce the most horsepower without being re-built, somewhere around the 600rwhp figure, and part of this is due to fact that the CA18DET is a cast-iron block, while the SR20DET is an alloy block like that of the RB-series.

LOL I will give you 50 bucks if you can get a stock Ca18 to hold 600rwhp for a week.

The RB30ET is based on the RB20ET as seen in some HR31 sedans and wagons. Obviously the 3 litre engine makes more sense for the export market as we have more long Freeways and the like and less tax and shit on higher displacement engines. If you look at the RB30ET though it is basically an RB30E with lower compression and the bolt on gear from the 20ET.

CA20's were fitted to S2 Blueys and weren't that good in stock form (I don't think they have a lot of potential either)

R31 Pintaras as well.

D = double overhead camshaft

E = Electronic FUEL INJECTION (not ignition!)

T = Turbocharged

The number is displacement rounded to the first 2 digits.

The letter prefix simply refers to the family of engines. Ignore it, and what you think it stands for, Nissan engineers probably got a 5 year old to point to 2 letters in the alphabet and went with it for good luck. Insert a myriad of other explanations for it, we aren't going to resolve what has been debated for years within the confines of this thread. In the end, who cares?

Was there anything JDM that used the RB30ET? If not I'd say it was completely Holden's doing. They did buy the rights to the RB30 from Nissan AFAWK.

T actually stands for factory turbocharger.

RB30ET was all holden AFAIK. wasn't the camshaft in the vl RB30 designed by holden as well?

Tommy kaira made a 30DET but that's about it.

and using nissans amazing engine identification system(excluding R and S), Its called FJ20DET :P

don't forget the ca18i, the most awesome engine ever produced by nissan. So awesome it doesn't follow the naming convention or need the twin plug stupidity of the ca20. It's bottom end is factory rates to 600ps but Nissan didn't want to unleash such an engine on the unsuspecting public so limited the power to 80ps with it's sohc rocker snapping awesome sauce head.

I'll see your CA18I and raise you a CA18S.

LOL I will give you 50 bucks if you can get a stock Ca18 to hold 600rwhp for a week.

EFI up here in QLD has had a 550 rwhp stock bottom end ca up and running for years and years, they slapped a 42r or some such thing on it for lols, bashed 30 psi through it, and have been unable to kill it yet.

Fkn useless for anything other than making 500 + rwhp on a dyno though!

The VQ motor Im running seems to be a strong fighter.

VQ25DET, factory unopened motor, throwing more than 300kw at all fours..

from my understanding the rb30e was based on the rb20e

holden were going to release the 202 in the VL but the emision laws changed at the last second, holden then spoke to nissan australia and together they designed the motor based on the rb20e, and for marketing reasons, holden went with the mx7 gear box, and turbo, where nissan went with the n/a'd options and rb20 gearbox

toyota engine codes confuse the shit out of me though

nissan;

RB26DET R - ? ~ B - ? ~ 2.6 litre Dual ~ OHC T - turbo

2JZ-GTE - WTF? isnt this a 3 litre? its almost like someone was like "what do we call this?" smash the keyboard "that"

JZ = engine code, 2 = 2nd generation of that motor, G = wide angle valve DOHC, T = turbo, E = electronic fuel ejection.

Afaik holden didn't help design the RB30E nor did Nissan Australia design it originally. Afaik it was a design from Nissan Japan and possibly not necessarily based on RB20E as they may have been designed at the same time.

Keen to hear anyone's input on this.

    • The average previous owner for these cars were basically S-chassis owners in the US. Teenagers or teenager-adjacent. I often tell people that neglect is easier to fix than something that was actively "repaired" by previous owners.
    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny
