Wow... That's a handy piece of knowledge. Thanks heaps. Only wanted to find out cos I wanna build a fun bit of gear... AWD for track and street, but 2WD for ... ahem. fun?

Yeah, there are no part time $WD skylines in production. However I have heard of a front drive disconnect? It sounds unfeasable, however I would be VERY interested to know more! Anyone else heard this?

Hey. I don't know if there is any regularity throughout the system. Looking to buy (From R32 onwards) but want specifically 4WD and RB26 powered cos I want the drivelinefor a project. However, most people don't list as to whether its 4wd or not. Do the GT, GTS-T GT-R, etc actually designate what ebgine/drive combo is within? Any help appreciated, CHeers. Blake.

Thanks heaps guys, you know the site a "touch" better than I do. Will check it out, cheers for the info. )

hey guys, I'm very... um... lacking in RB knowledge but LURVE how they go, I've checked out the forum, bloomin huge at that, well done people, however: I'm planning to build a very basic (not necessarily low budget) donk for and early series Holden Commodore, (I'm Aussie), and was hunting around 300 Rwkw. I'm confident of the work I require to do, (read the conversion pdf). What sort of boost pressures will standard TT setup put into donk roughly? Plans were for a reliable engine: Standard crank with collar modification, Standard 26 oil pump Spool imports 26/30 conversion kit @ 9.1 comp Standard RB26DETT top end As basics. Obviously with aftermarket ECU and exhaust, etc. Ideas on ECU, ignition systems, fuel supply / injectors? For RERLIABILITY? prefer to overkill, but help please. Capable mechanic and machinist, I'm just used to N/A v8's, not turbo's!!! Will this be enough to entertain? Cheers, Blake ANY HELP PLEASE!!!

Hey guys,<BR>Just wonderin if anyone knows of a rb30 stroker kit???<BR>I know you'll all call me a farken idiot, but I wanna build a rb26/30 hybrid stroker, to be different, not cos it wouild be better.<BR>Although I think an awesome capacity rb with a 26 head would be cool.<BR>Anyhoo, any info would be much appreciated.<BR>Cheers, blake

Hey guys, Just wonderin if anyone knows of a rb30 stroker kit??? I know you'll all call me a farken idiot, but I wanna build a rb26/30 hybrid stroker, to be different, not cos it wouild be better. Although I think an awesome capacity rb with a 26 head would be cool. Anyhoo, any info would be much appreciated. Cheers, blake

Aha... I thought that Tomei did... Just shows how little I know. Which ones had VCT??? I was told that in the whole RB range it was only the 30 and 25 NEO that didn't? Oh well. Nonetheless, cheers.

Hey guys, yeah I'm another blerrie newby. Umm, I've spent gawd knows how long glazing throught the sh$%loads of pages here and found it to be the best discussion on rb conversions out... Good form people. I know I drive a Bommodore, (I'm sory), but I have just started doin the bastard up. Now I'm an apprentice 'Chanic working for my father,so I got a reasonably good idea what I'm doin however, I'm new to Jap stuff, all I know is Holden v8's to be honest. Now I'm looking to pull around 500hp atw, (370 kw) one day, (a long way off I know), but as I'm just starting where should I start? Initially I'm gonna acid dip the block, balance the stock internals. I wanna chuck a 26 head on it, with the VCT, that doesn't worry me in the slightest. Now I need to drill and tap the rb30 block to accept the larger head studs? What is the best idea for inlet / exhaust / cheap starter option? I mean eventually I'll throw some good Tomei gear down the 30 block, port and polish the 26 head and go to about 25 pound on the boost guage... What should I be looking to do to get that far? Money are an issue of course, so any price guides would be much appreciated. As for time, well I have got a second RB30 al;ready in the car, so I have THIS one on a stand for the rebuild... I got no idea on computer gear, dynoing and whatnot, any advice? And before I go, (Cos I know you'd be sick of a prick like me), I'm gonna convert the VLK to manual, the cursed 5sp, I'm guessing other than a decent clutch and light flywheel, it should be able to cope with a gentle right foot until I can drop a r34 manual in it??? Sorry for being a long winded bastard, but I wanna do it right! Cheers
