Hey guys, can anyone help me with possible modifications to an L20et in my HR30 Skyline? kinda stuck on where to go no with this engine.... currently running 12psi on I/C and exhaust, but want a little more out of it (If i can get it!!!). Would injectors and fuel pump get me anywhere decent or upgrade to an RB20 turbo a better option??? Or do i try and get an FJ20et?

also anyone got a DR30 for sale? deadset serious please email me. :blink:

cheers

Don't shoot me for this, but go to an SR20DET or an RB25DET...

Reasons: FJ's are more expensive for parts these days, harder to find parts etc(i looked at this option when i had my 16, so badly wanted a stroked NA FJ with ITB's) and less off the shelf mods avilable...

Rb20's are less common these days, a mate just paid 1.3k for one! they used to be half that(yes i know exchange plays a part, but they were cheaper before the exchange rate was good then bad)

SR's have heaps of bits around, as they were used in s13/s14/s15, so JDM and ADM, most mechanics know them etc.

Rb25 was used into the 2000's in the R34(in NEO form) so there will be more bits around for years to come.

      You're 20 years too late mate. Used to be 80% skylines back in team trackday days

      There's a lot of drug money on that side of Sydney. Just sayin'.

      At SMSP, I mainly see Hondas, M cars, A90 Supras and of course, plenty of Evos. Have not seen a single R32 ro R34 Skyline on the night sessions that I've been to. That's really saying something.

      I like mine. Much better than stock. Like i said before the reverse/parking cameras look even worse than normal, still useable. When you buy one make sure it's the latest version. Heaps of cheap ones that run the old hardware and software. Got mine from AliExpress. Mine is quick no lag, boots up 1-2 sec. Menu is fast. Netflix is fine and so is YouTube. Android Auto is random taking 3sec to 15sec. Most of the time it's quick. Very rare it doesn't connect. But that could be a phone thing.   Now I think they use a Pixel 3XL to run this whole thing which i guess is fine, but the problem is that some apps will not work on old hardware like Disney Plus  Maybe Prime Video too 🤔. they will not update. Iv'e tried getting the APK Disney + but i still couldn't get it working. I have a Data sim installed so i have internet all the time. You can't Hotspot off your phone and connect Android Auto at the same time. Not that you need too, if you want you can hotspot off your phone and run any internet map app (google maps) and you can run the Spotify app on it's own (the app runs better than android auto) You can still access the INFINITI intouch system for all the o.g stuff    P.S i got new non Polarization Sunglasses too 😎

      I also don't mean to rain on your parade. But with a 5-10k budget for road only? I'd want to check confirmation that everything IS working correctly and I'm with @GTSBoy for a plan of action here. I'd be checking subframes, bushes, exhaust hangers, interior bits and generally QOL things and CONFIRMING they are working right before thinking about motor. You can get 250KW+ on stock RB26 hardware by simply removing the built in restrictors and tuning the stock ECU. If you want purity that's as far to take it, which I would be worried to do and won't think the budget would allow for when earnestly checking for 30+ year old car stuff.
