rb30 block needed...

Hey good day to all

been a long time browser of these forums and decided to register recently...

I drive a c33 laurel with a rb20det, I had plans of doing some upgrades the the 2 liter lump but I have changed my mind and decided to keep it stock and do a build on the side. My choice as you would have already realized is the rb 2530 route. Now where i'm from (island of Trinidad) we never had any vehicles with the rb30 engine locally (r31, vl etc), so in order to do this build i would need to source and import a block (or two depending on the prices) from Australia to Trinidad. 

So basically i'm looking for someone who has for sale and is willing to have it shipped to my location...

You looking for just a bare block?

basically a good complete short block i'm after... I was also thinking once the prices are good, to purchase two just incase, seeing that these engines are almost non-existent locally...

    • I can believe it if you're getting air into the pickup. Cavitation is tremendously destructive for pumps.
    • I think the pic in the first post is another car, and post 7 is OP's car with standard arms and swaybar swaybar swaybar. I can't tell what brand the silver coilovers are, and even if I could I don't know whether the spring rate is OK, if you can find a brand on the shocks and numbers on the springs that might help. Also, if you can measure the ride height from centre of your wheel to the guard that will help with advice too as handling suffers if ride height is too low
    • sadly, pics no work. that car must have spent a lot of time in a cryo bubble
    • In the first photo you posted, the colour of the control arms are the signature colour for Ikeya. Same for the swaybar, signature colour for Whiteline.  I like Hardrace, they also do hardened rubber bushes if your car is mainly a street car.  I like GKTech as well, but they use a lot of rose joints in their stuff so might not be the best choice for everyone.  The system might have been good back in its day, but it's a prehistoric system now. I suspect that most people have removed the HICAS as they want the car to do what they want to do, not what the car wants to do. From what I also understand, it isn't consistent in it's behaviour on track so it's hard to trust the car/know where its absolute limits are for track use.  Having said that, I think the HICAS eliminator kit was the first thing I installed when I bought my car. I don't personally have any experience with the HICAS system on a race track.  
    • Thanks for the info. Didn’t know I had aftermarket control arms already? Will talk to my garage. What brand would u recommend if I want to play around with my camber more? I would think my camber is around stock level right now or more negative now due to lowering with coilovers. I will be lower her again 1.5 cm to get some more.    also why does everyone like to remove the hicas system? Is it because most don’t work properly anymore or ppl just don’t like them. Mine is functioning as it should be right now.    thanks for the good info
