Hi everyone

I have recently been planning up a project. I am thinking of building a r32gts, or a s14 with a RB30DET.

Before i jump into it and spend money, I am interested to know if there is any troubles with registering and engineering the RB30 in a 32 or s14. I hear that you cannot put a motor in a car if it was manufactured before the car was. This is probably false because plenty of people are running this conversion on SAU.

So could anyone please give me some information on what the regulations are for doing this build if it is possible at all. I am going to see a engineer shortly about the build, but i am just interested in doing abit of light research before hand.

Thanks.

Dude, use the search feature, this has been covered countless times.:)

Yes - please search.

As you are NSW - the thread by "Guilt-Toy" will answer ALL your questions.

There is also another thread in this section separate to it (with similar information).

If you just put in "engineer" and similar words, should take 5mins to find it - they are long and detailed threads

Cheers

    • I'm running a Haltech Platinum Pro with the stock map for the RB20DET + tweaks for my build. When I started it this morning, the IAT was at 32F/0C (Outside temp was ~42F) and the AFRs went off the scale for my AEM gauge. I let it run for ~30 seconds then turned it off. I then did a smoke test, by hooking into a vacuum line directly behind the throttle body, and confirmed there was no leaks ( i let the smoke tester run for ~5 minutes / confirmed it was generating smoke before hand ). I then started the car again, after fixing a power steering leak.... and it seemed to be happy for ~30 seconds (was at ~11/12), but then seemingly shot back up to ~18 again. I then let the car run for a few minutes, thinking this was just cold start related, but the AFRs never came back down. I didn't let the car fully warm up, so maybe this makes sense, but I'm not sure what to do? The AFRs, when I last ran it, were normal, but because of personal reasons I haven't been able to break in the car. It was rebuilt last year.
