i know that JUN Auto from japan had turbo'd the RB30E before holden, so maybe thats where they got the idea...

i was having a conversation with a workmate today (he worked for nissan dealer servicing for 15yrs apparently), we start an innocent convo about the impounded datsun 1600 sitting out in our yard. He says now thats a classic car, which i agree with then say "and it has a nice FJ conversion" (which it did) which he didnt agree with, saying the "CA20" is the best engine in the world....long story short the discussion turns to, what the RB25DET engine name stands for....i told him RB = Race Bred 25 = 2.5 litre capacity D = double over head cam E = electronic fuel injection T = single turbocharger....he disputed all of my claims and said all the titles stand for the symmetry and ratios of the engine or something...what do all these engine names stand for -- RB, SR, FJ and CA.....lastly.. *cant stop laughing*.. he claims that the RB30ET from the VL calais turbo was a holdens idea, apparently they engineered the turbocharging of the engine and the japs had nothing to do with it....

i've just lined up a pair of tie rod ends to suit a R34 rwd gt-t, do you think they will suit my R34 4wd gt-four? i've had a look at the ones in the car at the moment and they look the same as the gt-t
