Hi guys I'm new to the forum. Well I have followed the forum for years and have gathered much information from it. And fantastic information at that :) and after doing some digging around it seems that getting a rb30 block from aus shipped over is the way to go. So I was hoping if somebody could lead me to the right guy or company for a block.

I've had a nissan s13 for about 7 years now and had a rb25 in it for about 3 years and it's getting to the point where a forged build needs to happen. And my original plan was rb26 forged internals. But I thought hey why not go the whole hog and go for a rb30 build as the work seems pretty straight forward for me.

So any emails or information on where to buy would be amazing as over hear in the uk they are like gold dust :(

Looking for a series 2 which has all the oil and water feeds and drain. And the flat area above the water pump for the 2nd idler

Thanks mike

Ohh and I apologise if this is in the incorrect place. Please move of it is :)

After some helpful information from people I think I'm good to go. I can organise all the shipping all I need is somebody with a series 2 rb30 willing to part ways and who is willing to pallet it for me and drain the oil and water. So let me know what you've got

Mike

    • What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.
    • I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.      
    • So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about
    • This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but.. 
    • Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
