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.

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

    • 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 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
