R33 Rb30 Conversion

[platinum]

The car must pass an emissions test, he did say there wouldn't be issues if it ran on the std ecu as airflow is relative.

What sort of emissions test though, if it's the $3000.00 mitsubish plant one, bugger that. You interstate guys would be okay though I'd say if thats all it needs.

Grind off the rb30 engine number and put the rb20det/rb25det one etc

that is very legal

[Cubes]

Just as driving a modified car is. i.e ecu, larger turbo and injectors.

that is very legal

New nissan blocks come blank, so transferring numbers on nissan motors is legal.

Your more likely to get defected over the custom inlet manifold, and bodykit sitting too low....

My car finally idles properly THANKS CUBES! Joel came over and gave me a handle for a couple of hours great bloke! Found out that my AAC valve was totally stuffed from the sand blasting, was completely full of sand, no wonder it wasnt working . Now she idles perfectly i just have to wear her in and then she'll be ready for a dyno tune .

[R31 POWER]

Bring on the legal,what they dont know wont hurt em

Hope theres no sand in your plenum

[r33_racer]

she'd be right mate, thats the fully sick port and polish with grit isnt it?? Hes just taken the joke a little bit too literally without even realising it. haha.

'

But yeh obviously were hoping no sand in anywhere else.

On a side note, i got the jun collar fitted to the crank by the machinist, and i fitted the water pump and oil pump and put the new tensioner on the block. The new motor is coming together very nicely.

LOL well she runs fine and goes well, maybe she did get a port and polish and a slight hone hahaha , its called FOOLBOOSTS 1 second motor wear in method!

[r33_racer]

haha yeh...hopefully you wont have any problems with it. Will be interesting to see some dyno figures since its a 4wd system, once you get it fully tuned.

Think Joel's going to have to start charging for his time soon, hehe! He was a great help with getting my baby going and probably couldn't have done it without him!

Can't wait to see your results foolboost, we'll have to have an r32 rb30 get together i reckon with all these rb30's in 32's here in Adelaide!

Mmmm, just had a thought about a special stand/group of r32 rb30's at small car sunday!

haha, the things we have to do!

[FORZA-MOTORSPORT]

Having gone threw cutting 3 bonnet supports , i have noticed that the bonnet now will just close but the plenum is actually touching on the bonnet so it will be the grinder to that next!

[Craved]

does it hit on the throttle body or the plenum itself? just curious

[Cubes]

I found with measurements the closest point was the front of the plenum then as it moves back the clearance increases a little.. But not by much as a simple throttle body hose clamp sitting up will touch the bonnet underlay or what ever it is.

Get to it FOOLBOOST.. You have another plenum there should you go through it. :S

ahh right ...

friend is going through the build for an R33, just trying to work out the clearances etc see if there is a way around the mod to the engine mounts or front facing plenum ..

cheers

[Cubes]

Best bet is a front face plenum.

If you want it to look std. the only way is to lower the engine a little.

[r33_racer]

Just blocked off the front feed with a brass bung and put the tomei restrictor in the back. I know the guide said 1mm feed, but the ones we machined up with the 1mm hole were too sloppy and didnt have anymore time to stuff around making another one. Eitherway its gotta help, especially with the rear welsh plug gone and a line down to the sump.

On another note, the high energy sumps are nice. Nice work, very simple in design, im kicking myself now cause my idea for the old sump was very similiar to what the high energy one is:( But its a good setup, next to only a dry sump system id say.

Build so far includes,

RB30 S2 block, 20thou oversize for CP pistons, Scat I beam rods, RB25DET VVT Head has been port and polished, tomei 256 8.5mm cams, N1 oil pump, JUN collar, R33 S2 Water pump, Greddy plenum, q45TB, S/S manifold with a gt35r with .82 housing. Heap of other stuff. Ill get some pics when its done tomorrow night or sat. Should look good when its all done. Were hoping for around 450hp at the rears.
