yeah buy my car. u wont find better. ;)

mine is a rb30 with turbo and full exhaust. converting it to manual i bought a r31 rebuilt gearbox and a brand new hd clutch.

all up mucking about with the conversion for both the engine and gearbox done professionally you are looking at 1500 for manual conversion, 5000 for all turbo work ive had done at least.

so def go rb20 route as it is cheap and although it hasnt got as much torque its good power and get the box and engine put in at same time. dont bother with nics engines ie. make sure its a silver top 20 out of r32

on the other hand if you want to destroy rb20s :lol: rebuild your rb30

id prob have a rb30 and a 25 on par in terms of potential. my budget wasnt defined unfortunately i ended up spending money on assorted hurdles such as tein headgasket and enlarging the wastegate. labours a killer and all that money was spent over a year. but yeah you are kinda right if i had tha patience it wouldve been a good option. anyway cars for sale.

    • This sounds like someone who would have owned an R33 in their past... It's okay, I'm 100% picking up what you're putting down Mark.
    • Just back on what was raised about jacking off the the tow/tie down point on the front of cars. I've used it plenty. I've also watched it on a car where you could see it move the front end of the car. It was like the front end/whole car being tweaked and twisted a bit. I will say, I struggle to find good jacking points on MOST cars. The ones that have good points, I then normally struggle to find a jack tall enough to make the car change height!   One of my go to points for either the jack, or the axel stands though, is either a suspension pickup point, OR a subframe to chassis major bolting point. I actually think its the subframe on my R33 that has a bit of a bend in it, from being jacked in the middle too. However, it could have been one of my many other cars I've had over the years! Or it could also be the from me jacking it up, and the fact the top of the front radiator support isn't there, so it can allow the front of the car to move and bend etc.
    • My apologies. I forgot we were talking about weird beard M series stuff. Had been talking elsewhere with someone about an R33 with similar subject and got confused.
    • Nope, I don't like the look of ND RF, or any ND really, I don't like their faces or arses, why, because of their "modern" lines, the NC, whilst "modernish" has a more rounded shape that I like Well, that's how my overly judgemental eyes see it anyway  
    • Should be more than fine, especially the overall fuel pressure would never exceed 3.5bar (assuming that thing never gets more than 0.5bar of boost in stock form). According to the chart, it's 11amps.
