Hi Guys!

I wonder if anyone know how much KW an unported rb25det head can handle on an rb30? Is it worth fitting Tomei Poncams and harder valvesprings on an unported head?

If the bottom is forged, balanced and has a nitto or Tomei oilpump with the longer crank collar would it be safe to rev 8000-8500 with the std hydraulic lifters?

I also wonder if it´s worth keeping the NVCS when build an rb30 or is it better to not use it, As the rb30/25 has enough torque at low rpms?

I will use Ethanol as fuel if it matters.

Sorry for newbie quests :cheers:

realy impressive! Wonder how much more poncams would do if it´s worth it before porting it?

you must have DEEP pockets, you would be looking at around $1000 just for the cams alone. . . the oil pump is right up there too

Keep the VCT - no such thing as too much torque.

    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
    • There isn’t really a cheap upgrade here. If someone made a decent, bolt in 6 speed that holds some grunt, it would do very well. The 5 speeds suck. You can put a - OSG 5 speed gear set into it. Ratios are tall so it zaps the “zing” out of it. Had one, busted it. - PPG 5 speed gear set synchro or dog’s. Ratios are even taller. - An overpriced Getrag. Nice to drive, expensive to source now. - A sequential of some sort. Expensive, very expensive. How many times do you pop a 5 speed before you throw the toys out of the cot?  
    • Yes, fair call. I don't have any special love for super/hyper cars but it was impressive to watch the Lambo line up against successive skylines without any problem at all.
