GT Four! either stagea swap or RB30. if you RB30'd it would you use the NA gbox from it or would a stagea one fit?

sell your car NA n then we can stick the turbo on my car! haha jk, rory wants a turbo for his AW11 though...

Depends what you want to do ,Drag it, Drift it, Circut Race.:confused:

The 2 wheel Gt+t is good for the RB26 swap less weight without the 4wd system and damn cheaper than the GTR.

If you've seen in Japan there's a few GTT's running GTR engines even better if you can land the VVT version of the RB26.:jump:

Hey Dan Go with the RB30 build & be a little different & go with the RB26 top end with a large single turbo on it

I was looking into it & had got an idea of price of around 6K with out turbo & computer just for the motor build & head/manifolds with no turbos.

I have a lot of info on it if ur keen let me know, mind you that build was with head port work & a 30 thou over on the block with pistons & rods with a fully balanced bottem end I got told it should be good for around 350 at the wheels with the right set up injectors & cooler, only prob with the big single & head port work is it will be very lagie but once it on hold on ;) I don't have the money to do what I wanted to do now but looking into KAPA with super charger kits ;)

there was a rb25 complete for $2000 on here in QLD.. still available last i checked.. loom, ecu, afm, everything..

would be a non-neo r33 engine.. but at that price worth considering

otherwise you get Rb30 blocks for a couple of hundie, and rb25 heads for around $1000.. throw in some cams .. the rebuild costs you a few thousand but that is with the serious bits. Near $10k you can have 350-400rwkw engine if you like.. add a nice turbo and start blowing up drivetrains.

rb26 head is a little too expensive.. flows better and tougher but $1000-$2000 more.

Hey Dan

Originaly myself and a mate built it but had a few problems so I took it to Power Break and Enginering (near Harrys Diner)

They pulled out my original build - rebuilt/ balanced the whole botom end - rebuilt mild port of the head - put it all back together - put it in the car and got it working for $2500

the engine is completly balanced - bored 10 though and runs awsome!

Just waiting to put on my fmic and power fc now and Ill be almost all done with the 33

rb30 with a rb26 head and single turbo is hardly "a little different"......

Go the 4.5 or 4.1 nissan V8 and put twin turbs on.... even with a stock engine this combo would haul some serious A55! the 4.1 will obviously be a little more rev happy, but the 4.5 will have more off-boost torque....

V8 skylines r.o.c.k! (but im biased)

Thanks riceline, may have a yarn to the guys down there then....something *cheaper* like the RB30DET may keep me happy for a bit before I move onto another car :)

Also what turbo are you using on that...is it still the stock one?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
