PN-Mad Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Well, with 30k Euro in the block, crank, head alone, you aren't going to get there with the $4000 euros left in your 50kAUD budget. Shit, your not going to even have an engine. Still need rods, pistons, All bolts/fittings valves and valve train gear, dry sump system, manifolds, turbo, gates.Thats before we get to clutch, GB, shafts, diffs. Budget well and truly busted.

JDM_R32_R35 Posted August 13, 2013 Author Share Posted August 13, 2013 (edited) e30K is $44k aus. now calculate redability of parts. shipping, price of living you are pushing it to the very least $75k AUD. labour tax aussie car dream boats who over charge on EVERYTHING now, we are in the $200k AUD mark already. Lol didn't know AUS was this expensive. Iet's stop talking about the $$$$$ as I already have the quotes here which are around 50K for everything . No need to jump in and go offtopic for this. Engine rebuild is max. 30K. Been quoted over and over. It's not that expensive. It's not a R35 GTR. We are talking here about a R32 GTS4 with a rb20det.

GTSBoy Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Hang on. You have already been told what it will cost. So therefore the spec of pretty much everything must be known. So why are you asking questions? By the way, a 1000HP RB20 is probably doable. It's only the same as a 1300HP RB26. BUT IT WOULD BE SOOOOOO POINTLESS. There is no point. What could you possibly do with it? A 1000rpm power band at 11k is going to be sooooo much fun to drive. That same amount of money, spent on good cocaine and hookers would benefit you so much more.

You are not going to achieve 800kw with a 30K euro motor, at least not more than once. Australia is expensive, but it's perhaps 10-20% more expensive, and I bet we do RBs better (and probably cheaper) than anywhere in Europe.

WMDC35 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 yeah this does sound a lot better than 1 of those proven RIPS motors or the OS 30, maybe you could sleeve it down more again Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/430153-rb20det-specialists-only-question-no-rb2526-replies-here-please/page/3/#findComment-6967803 Share on other sites More sharing options...
BakemonoRicer Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Yeah, Lots of stress on the body when you're putting out 1000hp....especially in an older & fragile R32 chassis. Chances are the panel gaps will get warped. To achieve 1000hp with an RB20, you're going to need to stroke out the block to 2.4L (go with I-BEAM conrods as they can be lighter yet attain the same strength as a heavier H-Beam) and cement fill the block for high boost application,then strap on twin HKS GT3040 turbines, convert to solid lifters, full E85 conversion and fuel system to suit, modify the cylinder head as necessary (including a set of drag spec camshafts) and optimise port design etc etc, and lots of other stuff. Done. 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/430153-rb20det-specialists-only-question-no-rb2526-replies-here-please/page/3/#findComment-6967809 Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotty nm35 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 BMW got some manky 4 cyl 1.5L iron block to hold 1500hp years ago, reliably too, they got at least one race out of them...

WMDC35 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 google the britten motorbike, he made all the parts at home, you could make a new head for the 20 which would be awesome, if you stroked it down as zebra says you could copy the design of a hayabusa head don't worry about the panel warping thing, if that happens just paint it orange and jump in and out of the windows golden Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/430153-rb20det-specialists-only-question-no-rb2526-replies-here-please/page/3/#findComment-6967839 Share on other sites More sharing options...
