I'll be talking to actual machine shops about this, but would like to get the opinions of some here as well.

RB30 Bottom end. Would be using 25DE pistons, so no piston costs.

Stock rods.

Stock crank.

Do Rings and bearings......but what else?

Just needs to be fresh and ready for a low hp application.

What would you recommend doing, and has anyone does a little freshen up rebuild like this? If so, costs?

Any experiences with brisbane based workshops? Would deal direct with the person doing the machining/assembly.

Comp will be high with 25de pistons, wont be an issue but. Had them in my rb30 sohc for quite a while and it went very well indeed, also work fine in a rb30de/t conv.

Have the rings checked out, most are ok to use again if its out of a low ks motor, and if its low hp application then it should be fine.

      Pillar gauges

      See, that button sounds like perfection Duncan! My eyes really don't like light shining at them from a dash when I'm driving. Being part red colourblind, I've found for most cars that I can change colours on, I set everything to red, so my eyes see the elast amount of colour! I miss normal gauges in cars

      bro, knowing the Japanese in  the 90's, i wouldn't be surprised if they shared components across their model lineup.

      Possible swap on R34 RB20DE NEO?

      By Kapr 路 Posted

      Maaaan so many "little" things  i rly hope my old RB20 would be "ok" and not too bad. I try to learn what and what not do i need. I look at crossmember at it looks different...even parts numbers are different. Wiring and all that i rly do not know...yeah someone mentioned the speedo thing. On that yoke clip. I rly do not know what can and cant be done "custom" so that is why iam asking to know and not be suprised 馃檪  I know what it looks like

      Oh, there's also the gearbox crossmember which will probably be different between the small box and the big box, and the wiring loom will probably need to be modified, because the plugs for the switches etc, will probably be different. And I think the speedo on the small box R34s is from somwhere stupid, like the diff, possibly, so you'd need to work out what needs to be done about that (assuming it is different). I think the thing you need to realise is that the front end of that yoke is a large hollow tube with splines on the inside that mates with the splines on the box's output shaft. It is a dedicated thing - not available "aftermarket". They were made to suit that box, by the car's OEM.
