Rb26 Or Rb 30

[Marko R1]

will be getting the ol' 26 forged soon,

have -5's, and the usual supporting bits and pieces,

was thinking about going towards an RB30?

whats the general consensus?

so have u come a verdict as yet...is it going to be an rb26 or rb30 for donkeypunch?

i've always wanted to try a donkeypunch just never had the opportunity

ha yeah the ol' donkey punch, not for the faint hearted aye

i think (when i rob the local bank ) will go 26, want the car to remain standard(ish)...... ive got no gauges, not lowered, no aftermarket spoilers, the car has LMGT4's and looks like it came out of the factory. i was even gutted when my mechanic said i needed a FMIC and an aftermarket BOV.

i kinda like the idea that one day my car might be a classic, alot of my friends have modifyed their cars so much that it would take the purchase price of the car to get them back to standard. hey my car would look better lowered, but compared with my mates supra with his entire aftermarket spoiler kit cracking and falling of because its so low and the adjustables are so hard its like hitting the car with a slege hammer everytime he hits a bump, ill think ill stick wih the dirty ol' engine she was made to run with and hopefully may hold its value a bit.

but hey it sounds like the 30 is the way to go for power/torque, and well, everything else!

cool. just put your stock bovs back on for petes sake!

as of today, ive taken the plunge & picked up my block, pistons, rods etc for my rb30dett build (after 4months of decision making on which way to go)

i just cant go past the results RIPS have attained with their rb30's over the years - i always want more power

besides, if keir wilsons well respected gtr is good enough for an rb30 then so is my gtr

keir wisons cars run the ol OS GIKEN RB30.. Its a bit different to the rb30 found in the vl/r31.. Plus they're 20k for a bottom end, makes r.i.p.s prices look like a steal!

[donkeypunch]

cool. just put your stock bovs back on for petes sake!

yeah i will asap

[donkeypunch]

[N1GTR]

RB26 vs RB30

[Lithium]

RB30 gives RB26 a 4 second head start and goes for it for under half of the dragstrip and the RB26 won = RB30 gave RB26 a little too much of a headstart?

you snooze you loose!

RB26 cuts a 0.05 light...RB30 cuts a 1.02 light...race is won at the tree.

RB26 wins by an 8th of a mile.

NOTE: the RB26 was street driven to the race meeting.
