Hey guys,

Over the last 8 months or so i've been slowly putting together a twincam rb30 setup for my R31. Now this was all going well and was about 95% complete, untill i managed to crash my car on sunday (i was in a captain planet suit when it happened actually...) It was a relativly minimal accident, no one was hurt, except my car, a r33 skyline and a vz commodore. Now i have to sell off some parts that i was going to use, so i can pay for the repairs to their cars. (lesson: always get 3rd party property insurance!)

anyways, heres the prices, if you dont wanna pay what i want for them then fine, ill just keep em, but considering they are in exactly the same condition as when i bought them off other forum users, i rekon what i payed, or a little less (for SOME items) is fair. I also have reciepts for everything.

- GTS2 front suspension setup (yes, with the bilstien shocks!) and r33 calipers $1000 ($800 without 4 pot callipers)

- A Bosh 044 fuel pump, $SOLD - BRAND NEW IN BOX

- And a Sard rising rate fuel pressure reg $180 - BRAND NEW IN BOX

- A alloy oil catch can $75 (custom made by ISLEEP) - BRAND NEW

- A alloy surge tank $SOLD (custom made by ISLEEP) - BRAND NEW

- Bare RB25DET intake plenum - with cracked corner piece, repairable $20

- Standard RB25DET exhaust manifold - $100

- 48mm External HKS style wastegate - $200 (i paid 330)

- GT35r (XR6t specs) BRAND NEW - $1650

- 740cc NISMO fuel injectors - $840 BRAND NEW IN BOX

- RB25 ignightor pack (connect the coils to the engine loom) - $100 (i paid 150 for it from this forum about 5 months ago)

- POWER FC for rb25det - $SOLD BRAND NEW IN BOX

- RB25DET complete engine loom - $200

- Q45 AFM, with plug and bottom half of air box. - $150

- Pager alarm system - $100 BRAND NEW IN BOX

- 600x300x76 intercooler, no-name brand but still looks good quality - $100 BRAND NEW IN BOX

- BOSH EL falcon coil packs, good for wasted spark setup (eg, power fcs) - $100 BRAND NEW IN BOX

- RB30DET engine complete, minus 2 turbo suport lines. -just tell me what you want to come with it and we can work out a price. OFFERS? (if you live in sydney i'd love to help you get this running, just as long as i get to go for a drive in it)

I also have a series 1 TI in storm grey that im parting out. Theres is only damage to the front end of it, and it has a manual conversion that i will be selling complete - the box is from a r32gtst. It also has lovels springs and shocks all round, afterburner tail lights, all electric options, and those cool blue velour door cards. -I'll have to work out prices for these from other sales on the forums, but feel free to PM me your offers.

Im located in the eastern subs of suyney, and my number is 0420 316 326

thanks guys

-Tom

that turbo looks like a GT30R rather than a GT35R (GT3540R).... only because its using a .50 comp housing rather than a .60 or .70, but i may be wrong....

can you provide some more specs about the turbo and where you brough it from, thanks

xr6's run the 0.5 a/r compressor standard

Is the bottom end utilising standard rb30 pistons, rods etc

If so RB30E or RB30ET (need to know for compression difference)

What kind of head, 25DE, 25DET, 26DET?

What other components, Headgasket, type and thickness etc.

Any details you have would be appreciated along with a ballpark figure :(

About the RB30...

It has a stgandard rb30e bottom end, It has a genuine nissan headgasket, it has a rb25det head. I will accept offers of 1100+

About the turbo...

It is the same CHRA (center housing, wheels etc), the exhaust housing is exactly the same as the Garrett 1.06 version (except it has "Ford" cast into it), and the compressor housing is a .50 sized one (smaller than the .70 version). The parts are all made by Garrett, so there is no problems with quality control or mismatched bits.

I wouldn't say it is rated at less horsepower, the XR6 guys seem to be pulling out rediculous power figures for a "stock" turbo. The only difference I can see is with the smaller compressor cover the compressor map would be more efficient at lower boost levels (less than 25psi) than the .70 cover.

thanks for the interest

is the RB30 put together?

It would have to be shipped if I wanted it..

What have you done to it to improve it

ie:

Is the VVT setup

Whats the static compression

Have you moved all the idler tensioners

etc

Let me know

Thanks

the engine is 90% together, there are no spark plugs and the intake plenum is curently off the head as i was going to put my 740cc's in, but i can put it back on mefore it is sold. (740cc injectors are not included stock injectors are still in)

The VVT is all setup.

The compression ratio is 8.5:1, just like all stok rb30e blocks with rb25 heads

The timing belt tenisoners have been setup, there is a timing belt on it already.

-I can get you guys some high res pics of it after the weekend, id get them earlier but i have no car and the gear is at my pop's garage.

thanks

sounds good.

Just a few more q's.

1. Did you "refresh" the engine

2. What was done in the "refresh" if it was done?

3. Will you ship it, and how much do you think it would be?

hey tom,

i'll still be coming down this saturday can't wait :) just a quick question what manifold where you going to use with the turbo? and have you still got the turbo and wastegate? If you still got it in a month or two i'll probably grab it off ya give the motor the turbo it was always meant to have :)

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
