Good to see this kit available at last! Have to say 450kw is somewhat underwhelming but the extra capacity will have to translate to more power. It will be great to see someone build either a drag or a circuit car and see what it is really able to do!

please note this is on pump fuel with a rb25 head

another note is that the builder needed to get a new clutch because of the extra torque

hope to build this in the future.

I am sure it is capable of much more. The 3L going into my Stagea is looking too small already!

Its a sad day when 608hp/450kw doesnt impress.

That said, im sure Brad couldve got a T51RSPL on there at 2 bar on e85 if he wanted a big number, surely the point here is just crazy low end grunt more than a big hp number :)

yeah id like to see the power curves on this engine.

he was making close to 580-590hp with the 3.0l so this is a great improvement especialy how it is relativly cheap comapeared to a full house jap bottom end.

probly total cost for the whole engine is 6k - 10k by guesstimation.

There is a price at the top of $5500 for the rolling assembly so you would have to say closer to 10k all up ready to go depending on how far you go.

RB34DET Results

RB34DET 'vs' RB30DET

The RB30DET boost and power curve is in green and the RB34DET is in red

Resize%20of%20142JHK%20power%20vs%20boost.jpg

A comparison between the old RB30DET engine and the new RB34DET stroker engine is complete. The two engines are identical in every way except for the new stroker crank set up. The purpose of building two near identical engines was the only real way to make a true comparison between a RB30/25 and a RB34/25.

We arent trying to make the most power or we wouldnt be using pump fuel and a medium frame old school T04Z, we are trying to make a comparison.

Straight from the horses mouth.

    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
