Greetings,

I know there are quite a few people out there who have built their version of an RB30DET and im interested to know what parts you ended up using and what work you all had done to the enigne. Turbo sizes, cams, what head etc.

Pictures would be nice too! :wassup:

Thanks for your time,

well lets hope some people reply for you then.

but the people on that thread have stated it over and over and people keep asking the same thing 101 pages later cause they don't want to read it and they have stopped trying to help.

if it helps you at all, WHEN... I do my one.

it will be stock rb30 bottom end with the pistons that are in there....

new rings.

stock rb25de head... tested

stock rb20/25 exhaust manifold.

some turbo that will make close to 500hp at 1 bar. and with a 1.03 rear so I can actually drive it without frying the tyres.

Add intercooler, oil cooler, PFC, GTR injectors, fuel regulator (if required),

that is all in terms of MOTOR mods.

not that it helps you but I want to do a budget one and see what I can safely get.

and I'm quite certain it will be a lot moe driveable and safe than a modded RB20 that will come with the car.

    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
