First Time Engine Build. Rb25/30 Neo Advice

[iruvyouskyrine]

Oil pressure is almost a perfect 10psi per 1000rpm at all rom range which is good.

Street tuned the car today. It certainly wakes up after 4500rpm. I think I will fix my VCT problem as it would f**king kick ass if it had it.

Hitting low boost cut (5psi) at 2200rpm.

Thought i should revisit this topic haha.

The RB30 has been running faultlessly now for almost 2 years. It did 1 year on 300kw and now almost 9 months on 340kw. That includes 5-6 drift days in which the car gets driven very very hard (sitting on 7000rpm limiter in 4th gear). All i have done to it maintenance wise is to keep doing regular oil changes haha, now settled on using Penrite full syn 15-W50 10 tenths racing. When i first got the RB30 it had 330,000km on it, and i have done another 10-15,000 in those 2 years. So for a completely stock non turbo RB30 bottom end running more than triple the factory power level it is doing pretty fin good!

Could you estimate the costs of building your rb30/25 engine using the stock bottom end?

I have a one owner rb30 175k on the clock that I plan to drift with almost your exact build.

 

Many thanks
