Body resto and what ever needs done to be done then will see if i build another motor but add a few goodies in side

and bolt on s will see what turns up no rush as i think it's a good buy doesn't owe me a fortune so spending some on

it no an issue.Finding the parts will be.

congratulations mate hope you're happy with the purchase and if you need anything just give us a ring...

looking forward to some updates trickling through soon :blink:

Hey Mate

Yeah real happy really nice car will be going in the shed and spend a few bob on the body as we spoke about

then see what i can do to screw some more Hp out of it but keeping it as it looks ie: cam rods head turbo ecu

etc etc, all in good time though.

get in contact with 'stagefumer' who is one of the users on here

He wringed 130kW out of his L20et, he used VG30et injectors and turbo, exhaust and a few other bits from memory.

Seeing as you are in melbourne, I suggest getting in contact with Status Tuning in Dandynong or some other NISTUNE professional tuner, they will highly likely be able to rig up a RB30e ECU to replace the L20et one.

The RB ecu can be re-tuned on the dyno/laptop/ air fuel guage combo,

the flap style AFM can be replaced with the RB30e unit too.

the L20et cant be re-tuned itself as no-one really has hacked it, as its too many hours needed and just easier to get a later model ECCS unit.

the 300zxt (Z32) ECU is also a good one, has better resolution,

A mate had his RB30e turboed with just ebay bolt ons, and had his ECU chipped from a fella in Adelaide, 'darkhalf'... anyway his dyno run as stockish RB30e netted 102kW at the rears, then with turbo gear, and the chipped ecu... 210kW at the wheels. that was an 8 hour install. Was a ripper of a day, drove in at 6am, drove out sideways thet evening

Thanks for the info will file it away for future reference i need to get some front panels first though do the body so any help on panels for one of these would

be appreciated.

Hi,

Post up a list of what you're looking for. There are some R30's at a local pick-a-part. (Best one disappeared recently - hate to think what happened to it). I can do some scouting (with camera) if you like.

I am wrecking a 4 door hatchback currently. Shipping will be a killer though.

front panels are spoken for, basically all that is of use to you is the front stone tray and the doors?

So how are the 'bit' for me coming along, or have you forgotten ?

Why would you bother with an L20ET?

Just bung in an L28E and associated turbo gear (yank ebay would be your friend for stuff like L28ET manifold and injectors, afm, ecu etc). Will end up about 1,000,000,000,000x better off than modding the L20. Simple maths, 40% more capacity is going to make a massive difference.

paint and panel would be foremost but a simple turbo upgrade to a VG30 and a decent intercooler would see a 30kw gain or 130kw easily. And cheap too

i would have bought it just for that rear garnish for the boot lid!

yeah you don't find them anymore and the aussie delivered one ain't the same... i did see a wrecked one in QLD years back that had the same boot trim and it was still good but yeah, years ago

And LAG out your ass on an L20A engine.

Me for one, likes response from the loud pedal and therefore bigger turbo's on a little and very badly designed motor is not a plus in my opinion.

    • IMG_8641.mov     She doesn’t sound the best but starts with out using any gas now. I just ran some injector cleaner through her. started roughly the first time after adding it but gave it the beans slowly upto 4k, Must have cleaned a few cobwebs out. another step in the right direction for the sub
    • Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in
    • Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.
    • Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
    • How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box
