Cubes Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 (edited) I've used stock as I'm only after up to 300rwkw. Sky30 is running a complete stock bottom end and has been running slightly over 300rwkw for some time now. Also.. With regards to strut tower braces, I was looking at a cusco that very well may do the job.

Dahtone Racing Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 i wanna see how far i can push an engine that im going to build myself with upgraded parts. so im gonna go for an aftermarket set of rods instead of prepped stockies Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/15420-r33-rb30-conversion/page/128/#findComment-1639962 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cubes Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 If I had the extra cash at the time I definitely would have gone forged rods. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/15420-r33-rb30-conversion/page/128/#findComment-1639965 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_rbman Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 just wonderin where you guys got your oil pump gasket? Have tried all the usuals like repco, sprints, motormate and supercheap and in all their books it doesn't seem to list them, any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Had my engine booked in for this friday to get the finishing touches but it looks like i might have to change the dates because i'm having a bit of trouble finding a secondhand series 1 Rb25DET oil pump, Getting the gasket for the oil pump and there's been a bit of a delay with getting my VRS gasket kit for Nissa (Japan) should hopefully be here this Thursday though! ARGH! the drama's of building an engine, fingers crossed it'll all be worth it!
