L28 With Rb30 Ecu And Loom

[432-r]

I have a L28 efi and was thinking of trying to install a RB30e ecu so i can get a nistune.

Has anyone done such a thing? i.e. RB30e loom and ecu with L28 EFI manifold.

With this i was thinking of going turbo which brngs me to my next question - what to do on the distributor front. Since it would have RB30e ecu and loom was thinking RB30e afm and somehow getting the RB30e dizzy and coils to work. a shoehorn may be required.

anyway anyone who has dabbled with the RB stuff on a L series any help would be much appreciated.

Scorcher in melbourne can buld a custom dissy, basically grafting the RB30e dissy onto the L series shaft and mounts. perfect.

other solution is to source a L28et dissy, which has the optical chopper wheel CAS in it. prety much he same thingas the RB but half the price.

I got one here, but Im not letting go for any less than $300.

I didhave a RB30e ecu running my practice L24e but it would only just idle. i didnt put too much effort into it as I got a Wolf 3d

For a few hundred more you could go Megasquirt II, with EDIS

thanks for the reply's. i am aware of the megasquirt option but was thinking along the lines of nistune if possible. If the RB30e ecu can be reflashed then why not?

Would megasquirt be a better option?

Also is there a difference between L24E injection manifold and L28E?

I like Megasquirt, a bit of a learning curve to start with, but now there is some very nice "on the fly" tuning software that will tune while you drive.

L24E manifold will bolt onto a L28E, and L28 will bolt onto a L24

some heads don't have the larger bolt hole in the head. (early L24 / L26 , I believe )

After talking to many people on this one it looks like it is a bog hassle to work through the RB30E business so i am leaning on standalone, or megasquirt. once i have found out more i will revisit this. Wolf 3D v4 sounds quite good for what you get so far.

I did want to go megasquirt, but the lack of actual workshop support put me off.

The wolf is suppored by quite a few workshops. the one I got is the V4x, heaps of features...

True.

but if it's not your daily driver, then you dont have the pressure to get it going over a weekend,

lots or reading, but in the end, I'm very happy with it, and I can say, I did it myself.
