Unless the poncams 260 will be restrictive at 500rwkw ( head with port job, valve springs etc ), I need something bigger. Whats avaliable if any? Nengun seem not to have anything? Also been told anything bigger is hard to install on the Neo head becasue of it's design???

RB25/30 with t04z 1.x a/r

cheers

I would assume there wouldnt be many choices since the Neo has twin VVT. Lots of people delete the VVT and run the 26 cam's which come with many choices and much cheaper. Just an option.

due to them having similar soild lifters to rb26, yes it is possible to use gtr cams. Although max lift that can be used is around 9.5mm ive been told. Apparently due to their lifter desgin, bigger lift pushes down and exposes oil feed galleries.

drag and dyno applications..Im just concerned that 260's will restrict power from the t04z using 1.x a/r and rb30 bottom. Although i have seen 256's pull 487rwkw from a rb25 with the same turbo...Concerned the extra cc's may need more breathing

IMO the only way to get the best from an RB30 is with an RB26 head . Std and aftermarket GTR cams are set up to work with the RB26's six throttle inlet manifold system and thats why they can cope with the increased overlap . When you use a single throttle per cylinder system the plates block the positive pressure reversion pulse you get from reflecting back into the plenum chamber when using greater overlap and longer period cams . So the multi throttle system gives the least throttling losses and copes far better with reversion which is the mark of a competition engine .

Broken record I know , do something with the head stud holes and the 26 head falls on . Almost always the best manifolds for super duty engines are for the hottest one out of the box - RB26 in the RB family . Heaps of cam/valve/spring options .

For the best from a T04Z your going to need a divided T4 flanged manifold (and housing) because you won't get the gas flow through a T3 flange no matter what sized housing it has - particularly with 3L in front of it .

If it were me I'd sell the Neo head and that won't be hard to do because they are not like grass seeds , and buy an RB26 head .

RB25 heads in a way are a big PITA , people want to fit GTR spec cams / adapt the GTR inlet manifold / exhaust manifold/s and end up spending more money than the right head costs . The 25's VCT is a pain to work around and has no place in a high RPM engine .

Your call , I know what I'd do .

yes ita a neo head going on a rb30 bottom end. What specs are the hks cams and where do i get them from? I have searched on greenline and nengun. Also been told from numerous people including hi octane themselves that tomei are the biggest???

    • Latest round of updates on the car. I purchased and installed a SWS clutch slipper to help with 60ft times and got some second-hand good condition 275/40R17 Hoosier DR2 radials. Test and tune in November showed the tyres were an upgrade over my over 15 year old mickey Thompson's and I got a 1.8 second 60ft and pb et of 11.71 but even then, that run wasn't great due to rain and driver error (the event got called off 10 minutes later fast forward to the weekend just gone 25th of Jan and there was finally a break in the weather to let racing happen. The first run the track was slippery and only managed a 12.1@129 Second run the track was better and got a new pb et and mph: 11.54@131   Lith and I then worked out that I installed the previously mentioned clutch slipper incorrectly and its never been working, and I had just been dumping the clutch the entire time, we also noticed it was on street boost and not race boost. So I lined up for a third run with the car turned up in the first two gears, but the passengers side axle objected to clutch dumps and left the chat which stopped my weekend.   so there will be another attempt in the future once I replace the tyres as they rubbed and are stuffed now. but a low 11 should be on the cards.
    • Ceramic coating and heat shielding, you mean?
    • Turbos don't require pulling the motor apart so that's "easier". I would recommend the Nismo R3 turbos instead if you want to do stock twin turbo. It doesn't make as much power as the 2530s but it's only like ~50 whp off the mark and should have better response (ball bearing CHRA, slightly smaller turbo). A local that went with a Garrett G30 and 6boost manifold recently nearly burned his car to the ground after the hood insulator started melting and and burning so if you go single turbo I recommend doing a lot of research and validation work to make sure you don't do the same.

    • 100% is gyprock, I agree. Slip of the keyboard. Haha! I left my indicator bulbs out to save a bit of weight.
