Hi all,

I have up for sale some crazy custom RB30 parts. These parts are custom designed and made especially for me.

First: Full counterweight 4340 billet crankshaft. It is a 85mm stroke so just shy of stock, and was designed to achive maximum rev vs harmony of rod to stroke ratio etc.. The crankshaft itself was made by the well respected and reknowned Crankshaft Rebuilders in melbourne. It is my belief and the guys that made it that this crank will comfortably spin to 10k RPM, it is fully balanced and machined to suit the rods that go with it, it is heat treated, nitroed and cryo'd. It took well over 12 months to get this made and cost $6500

Second: BME aluminium rods custom built to suit the crank, but still work with a standard wrist pin height rb30/26 piston. Do a little reading and you will find out how good these rods are, heres a link to their site http://www.bmeltd.com/rods.htm. These rods are huge and I have been told by Bill Miller himself that these would comfortably take 300hp each and would run in my chamber specs easily at 15:1 comp with 30 psi boost and be happy! With frieght and all the extras such as top bush etc these cost me $2350

I am selling as a package as both are designed to suit each other:

Price: $6000

I can be reached on 0418 327 427, i have no pics but will try and organise something for serious buyers.

Daniel

    • @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣  
    • I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia. 
    • Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.
    • I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).
    • As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
