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!

      How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.

      Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

      The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
