Looking to run as close to 11.5:1 compression in my RB30DET (Forged 3.0l Bottom end, RB26 Head, GTX45, E85, Built C4). Any Tips or links as to what piston & HG combination will get me closest? also what block work should be done to help raise the compression?

Brad @ Spool Imports isnt sure if CP Pistons will be able to fit enough Dome on the piston to achieve that CR.

Cheers

It won't be easy. Only ever heard of one person running more than 10:1 on an RB30 and that was originally designed to be n/a - haven't heard how the turbo conversion worked out.

Most people aim for around 9.5:1

my 26/30 just made 673rwkw on 39psi thru a T400 with a very loose converter, head is still fairly much standard apart from springs, tomei cams and standard GTR inlet with STB conversion, its in a VL

Hey good numbers! What turbo? Post up the chart in the section above. 2wd you will be just spinning the wheels most of the time?

Thanks, Garrett GTX45, yer 2wd, so for the street it will be fun, makes 510rwkw on 24psi with exhaust shut so that will tame it down.

Very happy considering the setup still has some restrictions, under sized exhaust etc.

cheers for the replies guys but cutting the factory 34 pipes isn't really an option as i plan on put a 26 back in it at some point,

I think I have come up with a solution though, turns out the 32 hoses are a bit longer then the 33/34 ones and they seem to line up perfectly,

I've fitted the one from the chassis to the plenum already and it is a perfect fit just can't for the life of me find the spear one for the other side, will post a pic when I get it done

Hey mate, is this the hose that goes into your plenum? If so I’m in the same boat looking for options.

    • Back in January, I noticed my car felt noticeably weak. I had the injectors cleaned, which seemed to solve the problem -- until now. Recently, the car suddenly lost power again while driving. Suspecting the injectors, I brought it to the mechanic. He recommended replacing them entirely, saying the current ones were getting unreliable and fiddly to work with. I could not find a direct replacement for my current injectors. The closest match I found were 440cc injectors. This led me to look into the possibility of upgrading -- and of course, that would mean remapping the ECU. From my research I found: The OEM Part numbers are 16600-72L20 and 16600-72L21 Both the RB20DE and RB20DET use the same 270cc injectors. There are much better options out there over the old OEM injectors. Nistune could be a viable tuning option. While the RB20DE isn’t explicitly listed on their site, the ECU is essentially the same as the GTS-T version - just with a different map. The ECU code on mine is listed as supported. One concern is finding a tuner who works with Nistune. Aftermarket ECU like Haltech and Link, but this would be the most expensive choice (and possibly overkill for a mostly stock RB20DE) I admit that I am very new to the tuning scene and would appreciate any insight or recommendations regarding this.   These are some SAU links where I got some of my information from for reference: https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/380324-rb20de-injectors/ https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/477396-factory-270cc-injectors/  
    • The inspectors are not forensic by any means but if you forge your documents and/or badgings on vehicle parts and are found out, the consequences are just far bigger than if you just run illegal parts. And their job quite literally is to cross reference what parts you got installed and what your papers say you got. Something as silly as your suspension being 1mm too low will fail you. Nonetheless I asked if someone knew the damn pipe and I certainly did not ask for smartassery or underhanded comments, no idea why you need to be told this. Great way to waste both our time.
    • As useful as you explaining what forgery is... But then again, I wasn't aware your inspectors were also forensic experts and inspect nameplates on each component to confirm everything is original. They must inspect roughly 3 cars a year at that rate. You're right though, my comment doesn't help you in anyway, so I'll go talk to my wall now. Cheers. 
    • Say that to the guy that is going to fail your inspection or tow your car for illegal exhaust modifications. If you have anything else useful to say, please go tell your wall.
