I have one in brisbane. It's been rebuilt in 2006 and had only done about 5000-10,000km max before the car it was in was rear ended. It is a series 2 block and has 20 thou over acl cast pistons, standard rods and acl bearings. i believe the block may also have been decked slightly. make an offer if you want it. I don't want too much for it as I have too many engines around at the moment. I also have a good running series 1 rb30 out of my one owner vl wagon that i recently bought off the original eldery owners. It will be out of the car within the next week or so.

I have a bare RB30 block (not sure what series) with crank and cradle that came out of a VL wagon. Not sure of kms.

Will let it go for $300.

Located in Wollongong NSW.

First up sorry for the delay... Been flat out these last 2 weeks :(

I have a bare RB30 block (not sure what series) with crank and cradle that came out of a VL wagon. Not sure of kms.

Will let it go for $300.

Located in Wollongong NSW.

Bare RB30 block is good... Does it have the machine area at the front to fit a new tensioner and does it have the holes for the turbo lines on the right side of the block?

To be honest, $300 is very pricey. Can get the whole motor for $350-$400. What's the lowest you'd go???

Hey bud, sounds pretty decent. Just need you to give me a starting point for a price - don't want to unintentionally throw a ridiculous price at you. Plus I gotta figure put how much it will cost to get it freighted to Sydbey!

      R34 Gt Auto Tuning

      If you want to do the wiring, the GTT engine ecu has the same pinouts extra that the seperate TCM in the NA car has. You can literally grab the wires/pins that lead into the Seperate TCM and wire them into the corresponding pins in the GTT Engine ECU. You could then in theory Nistune it. I realised this when everyone put it in the too hard basket and I actually looked at the f**kin R34 manual. This is after I had previously had a seperate aftermarket TCM controller in my original N/A chassis car and a very built gearbox from a GTT, running a seperate Haltech engine ECU. I ran into this issue when I re-shelled the car into a GTT shell, so my aftermarket TCM was no longer plug and play, because the loom/modules were not present. I was pretty livid when realizing just how simple the original fix actually was. It sat for 3+ years at various workshops trying to find a solution. In practice none of this is a worthwhile idea for a lot of reasons, generally surrounding the shitness of the NA auto, the autos in general that come with skylines, and the NA engine and lack of gains. The gearbox is specced for the 2.5L N/A and barely at that level. If you have to pay anyone any money to do any of this, that is money spent on manualizing the car and it's not even close in terms of a comparison. Learning to drive manual is simpler than going through the pain of dealing with the N/A gearbox and he'll have fun to boot.

      Semi-correction to my blanket statement that you can't bend rubber hoses. It seems that you can get most of a result, by doing as this guy does. I wouldn't promise that the bends will stay in the hose forever. I think if I found they wouldn't stay, I'd get a larger hose and cut some 90掳s out to go over the bends I wanted to be in the smaller hose, as a reinforcement.

      Just a heads up. Mine has just failed. When i turn the car on it just reboots everytime then the word "Android" shows up then goes to a black screen. I've aksed the company i got it from for some help but it's passed their 90 day return so they wont help. I have to swap back to my old system this weekend 馃槶

      Does the car have to stay auto? If so, you might be looking at a ZF swap in future.
