RB30 motor still on original crate - so I am told. Brand new......well, never used anyway. $2,800 ono. Located in Queanbeyan, NSW.

This RB30 engine was obviously purchased new through Holden many years ago as a back up for the previous owner's Holden Calais VL. But as you would expect of the RB30, he didn't need it.

Unfortunately it sat in a mechanics workshop for most of its life and some parts were taken from it. It is missing the front timing belt gear including the covers, bottom pulley/harmonic balancer and fan. The injectors were removed but a new set of Nissan injectors is included. Some hoses and a couple of screws/washers were also removed. Naturally it doesn't have the starter motor and alternator. It does, however, have the water pump, exhaust and inlet manifolds and depending on the price paid it may include the throttle body with cruise control linkage.

Basically this is a complete motor from rocker cover down to sump.

I got it to put in my R31 wagon as the mechanic advised me I would need to completely rebuild my current motor (it was dripping oil) but one new cam shaft seal and one all-nighter in my garage I fixed it myself. Anyway, the RB30 is taking up space in my garage that I really want back so I need to move it on.

If you are in the Canberra region, I can deliver it to your door. I will also assist in delivery arrangements for anywhere else.

Enough waffling on though, now for the pics.

      Maybe I also should have wrote that a bit better lol. I did come 8th last in English at school during the HSC, ironically spent 2 decades reading/writing specifications and contracts in IT 😂

      Right, but that's in-cylinder, there's the interaction between that and the TWC which complicates things. Pulling out timing to reduce NOx is a strategy I saw in transitional emissions vehicles like stuff from 1974 or so. The two inlet runner system is interesting but I'm not sure it makes a huge difference as far as emissions goes, is it a tumble valve? I've seen stuff like that even in cars from the late 80s.

      Swapped rb25de neo how to get the gear indication on the dash to work

      By romel · Posted

      Hello all,   so i recently swapped out my rb20de neo with an rb25de neo( engine,transmission, wiring and the diff everything) but i just cant get the gear indication light on the dash to work when i switch to tiptronic mode. Note there is a steering wheel switch beside the shifter and i dont have that. I did notice yesterday while switching to tiptronic that the indicator on the dash started to work but it didn't afterwards. Does anyone know how this actually works? Or do i still need that steering wheel switch to be connected and on for that gear indicator to work?

      Hence why I said earlier that I don't think the turbo Neos ever would have actually qualified as an LEV. I suspect the only actual LEVs that came out of Nissan were the NA Neos. Still call them all Neos. They all stil have the Neo-ness. Just that they don't all qualify as as LEVs.

      Rb26- Enlarging Std Throttle Bodies

      By sucram · Posted

      It will give gains, but you wont hit 600 It will give gains but it wont get you to 600 imo. You will also sacrifice low down and you will be adding extra volume if you port match it, more so if you port the plenum runners depending and how its done I think the only time youre going to see about 100hp gains is if the car is making well over 1k kw I do have a spare set that I was going to test with, but i dont actually think there is anything worth getting going larger. I did a fair few S14/S15 and the standard TB is fairly small, I went to 60 and in some cases 64mm which is significant over the stock unit. You can also get some weird ratio changes. I think 20kw will be a stretch on a roller dyno. If I had it apart I might mill the shafts a little and not expect much, I think the stock size is still pretty good for a street/track car even with larger capacity. I might change diameter it if its a drag only car
