Hey all, as you all might notice, im new around here and was just wondering if someone can point me in the right direction.

I'm interested in a RB30 Engine Block, complete with crank, rods, pistons, waterpump, oil pump etc.

Can someone point me to a forum or someone I can buy it from or enquire further about it?

Thanks

Edit:

Lol, just saw the "rank" thing saying in RB20E and it just so happens that I am presently driving a RB20E powered cefiro A31!

Ok im not from Australia. Or from Adelaide SA... Not even sure where that is.

However, I am from Trinidad, West Indies.

Now that's the other side of the world, but the reason I came onto this site is because I cant find it anywhere else on this side of the planet.

What will the prices of a block be? On average! If I was to buy it in Australia? Id need to work out shipping after, But first id need to see if its worth it or if I should just stick to a RB25 build.

The RB30 block are only available in AU so you would have to import it.

Thats what I had to do for mine.

You can get them from site like this: http://www.rbthirty.com/

Or, you probably are fimilar with your local forum : http://www.trinituner.com/v3/

There are a few guys that do importing of parts that might be able to help you out.

I was on there looking for A31 parts so I have talk to the importers from there, they are willing also there is a whole section on RB30 conversions here I suggest you look around there.

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/forum/184-rb30-conversions/

Good luck but search around there is alot of info here too: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=RB30+conversion

The first link says there are currently no rb30 for sale...

Also, for to get in contact with someone locally to bring it down will be a REAL BIG TASK.

The minute you ask them personally to do something ur paying big bucks for it! BIG BIG BUCKS. So it would come out cheaper for me to probably buy it from someone. And they put it in a crate or something and ship it down for me...

We brought a few in at the same time with a bunch of other parts so selling those basically paid for my block and then some, if you can swing it I suggest you do the same.

Again good luck

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
