Preperation Required Rb30 Block For 3.2 Stroker Build


Nismo 3.2ish

So is a PT6262 a good turbo for this combo? must be a decent size for a 3.2L to take 4000rpm to be spooled.

I hope it does not have to go to 4000rpm to be spooled :(

But I will have to wait to find out how this combo will work in together :/

Pete don't be ridiculous, it'll probably make 300kw at 4 grand so stop worrying :)

Is that all, heap of shit :)

Joey, I know what I expect from the car from what you, Paul and a few others have said, the others have their different opinions and as all of them have more experience with these cars, I cannot push my uneducated opinion and as a bloke that is an optimistic pessimist , I always go for the worst and it gives me more chances to be happy with the end result :)

At the end of the day, when it is done I will know , but i am happy with the run in tune, the clutch :wub: great advice! I can also notice the difference of the drive train, not sure how to explain it, it seems more balanced around the twisty stuff and as you know there are plenty of 35s in this area on an 80 limit road, so I get a little idea of how it is working .

Good to see you have it back and hopefully I will get to see it when final tune is done, would be nice to compair side by side with my 3.0 34

It will improve a good amount when they start playing with cam timing, if there is something CRD do well its cam timing, I still use the settings they did on my 32 from 8 years ago and they should have learnt more since then

Dave was pointing out the rev limit is to be set to 80,000rpm :)

Hi Mick, all good

From what you have said before to me and on other posts I felt happy having CRD do this work, they have always done a good job. I forgive them for the other shit :wub:

It is good to hear what you think about their cam timing abilities and your experience with them.

80,000rpm, :) WHOOOOOPS MISSED THAT :yes::rolleyes: those pesky "O" do not look like much, but :woot:

vids of beast starting and brief drive??? :yes: 3.2L of goodness

Not much of a beast at the moment, like it has a hand tied behind its turbo.

I was surprised at the difference the .6Lt made to how the car runs at low rpms, that was one of the results achieved , just have to wait for the rest.

I will do something after the final tune , do a vid and graphs.

Maybe have to get the support strut modified or get a slimmer type to fit as the motor height has altered, I think he said about 38mm after some engine mount modifications.

Most likely custom strut brace which is what i have to do and i lowered the subframe by 8mm, needed depends on use of car, i like to track mine so its needed for me

The deckhieght on the RB30 block is 38mm higher then the RB26

I thought he said they lowered the mounts by 12mm or 18mm, not sure, but think he said it was still about 38mm higher .

I had made a tray system to stop the water going over the motor through the vents of the Z-tune type bonnet, the idea of water pissing all over the motor just seems dumb to me, so he had to cut a small section out of it to close the bonnet, easy to fix and does not affect it anyway, just have to do a few tests to see what happens with the water now if it is pissing down.

The photo shows the rain tray and the old strut brace

They are going to see what they can do with the strut when I go in for the final tune and if they cannot use the original one I will hunt one up. Seen a few flat types that should do the job.

Are you saying there are custom strut braces for these builds, if I need one where can I get it ?

A decent fab shop should be able to make you one up Pete

I'm sure someone can recommend a shop close to you

Measure the strut position this morning and it is OK, 3 inch clearance. The strut can go under the water hoses and I will have to modify the water tray to go over the hoses, DONE, well maybe , lol

    • @Butters I can't tell you why but the bigger HKS step 2 cams improved low and mid end immensely. Turbos started spooling about 1k RPM less than before and the idle/vacuum was rock solid, it was an absolute thrill to drive, 3rd gear pulls hit 180kmh where previously only managed 160. Conversely, the milder poncoms in there now have a funky idle making it harder to get off the line, drives poorly in lower revs, laggy and makes less power/torque throughout. Feels better after I swapped the EBC but unless I put it on the Dyno again, I can't say how much better.
    • Hi Sydney kid   do you still selling spring and blistein shocks for Nissan 260rs? Air any suspension upgrades? Please advice     yudy
    • Cams are not needed at this power level, they will create lag. The cam gears are a good idea though.
    • @Murray_Calavera yeah, I guessed as much, cooler temps, more boost, less knock, more timing, hello power. Unfortunately not quite within reach ATM, could upgrade my whole fuel system to support but still wouldn't have E85 to run it 😂  Anyway, I changed cams again, 260/260 poncam B and everything else the same except an EBC upgrade. Now I must say I was quite disappointed with the result as it was like running stock cams (didn't try to dial them in as they're supposed to be optimum already) but after awhile I suspected my new EBC was underperforming not to mention difficult to use. I recently swapped back my old EBC and it drives much better now, boost comes on sooner, more stable, no spikes etc, feels all quicker and faster than with stock cams. Planning to fiddle with the cam gears and see what happens but maybe skip the Dyno as I intend to revert to the HKS cams cos they really made the car come alive; low and mid end was unbelievable and it just wanted to rev to the moon, finally knew what people were raving about, RB26 really loves revs. Anyway, Dyno 03 is quite disappointing, in Dyno 02 although peak power was less and trailed off at the top, the low and mid end improvement more than made up for it.
    • @Darrel It's so tempting to say e85 is borderline magic. It cools the intake charge, so if you're flirting with the edge of the turbos compressor map it helps dramatically cool down the hot air the turbos are pumping. It is very resistant to detonation so you can crank the timing, I don't really want to say you won't be knock limited anymore.... but you probably wont be knock limited anymore lol. I wouldn't be surprised if you made 20% more power swapping to e85 (provided you have the fuel system to support them, bigger injectors maybe bigger pump etc).
