Who To Get To Build A Tuff Rb30det 500hp+

[azzr32]

hi, im finding it hard to get someone to build my rb30det. Alot of mechanics i have heard good things about are to busy and have up to a six month wait!!! so could anyone recommend anyone who i could get to build this motor?

I already have the rb25 head, 30 bottom end, forged pistons, rings, revs h beam rods, turbo and some other little things, i want it to be capable of producing over 500hp, so i need some who really knows what they are doing, so any sugestions would be much appreciated.

thanks

I think BU5TER on here is from your area...

he has what I would say is an "OK" built RB30det

give him a PM to find out where he went.

Pro Engines - www.proengines.com.au

Has built multiple RB's that support well over 500hp

BTW, before i forget just wanted to let you know there is an Oran Park GP track day on 5th of March. It will be awesome, small numbers, lots of track time and pro instructors too if wanted. if you want to come along just pm me.

Do you want the engine built and you (or someone else) fits it to the car?

Or do you want it built and fitted?

If you just want a machine shop to build the engine I may be able to help, PM me for details.

cheers

Pitty your not in Melb or I could recommend a top place

Why did you choose REV conrods out of curiosity?

As for engine builders, the logical choice given your location is Steves Autobarn as has already been said

[azzr32]

BU5TER ill give steve a call this week when i have a chance and organise a time,thanks

MRC @ castle hill, used to work at UAS to

Had a VL with somthing like 430HP @ the wheels, rb30 with 25 head.

Also rebuild my RB30DET putting out 330HP @ the wheels with a shitty auto box.

Ah, I know Mark - nice guy and great mechanic

If the recommendation came from someone like Mark then go for it

[GTR_Legend]

Yes, great mech.

Like i said, got him to rebuild by RB30det when it blew, it was due for it. Was running 17PSI with stock internals apart from a cam with 235K's on the clock. one day while driving my gear box f#cked up and the car just reved out as the rev cut was not set on the microtech. Then came the smoke, HAHA.

Got it rebuilt with tomei head gasket, arias pistons etc...

mark now owns a couple of XR6's, one turbo putting out arround 3XXkw @RW

Anyho....

Nothing wrong with REV rods I have used them with great success, as said seem to be taking as much punishment as any other rod of a similar price ie under 2K

[azzr32]

BLITZ- a guy who was a mechanic for rick shaw, he seems to know what he is talking about

plus ive heard of people making big reliable power and still using standard rods, and you would think REV would be better then stock rods!

Im after the same but in Vic, anyone got any suggestions?
