Hi guys!

I am a 29 year old guy from Norway.

I have owned my Datsun 240Z since early 2013 and for the last couple of years I have been working on an L31 stroker for it. This project has been an expensive pain in the ass, and I just recently decided to sell the engine and choose the RB path instead.

I have just sold the stroker, and bought myself a couple of RB20's (Got them very cheap, couldn't resist) and a tranny, wiring and everything. 

When I started googling my questions about the RB I stumbled upon these forums, so I thought it would be smart to become a member here?

 

I'll leave a picture of my baby here as well☺️

 

Best regards,

Tomzern

Hi Tomzern

Nice looking Z

On the face of it an RB20 is too small for your Z (although at least its not as heavy as the 260).  If its all you have then with a decent turbo and a bit of work it shouldn't be too sluggish and it can sound the part anyway!

Good luck

Hi Kiwi,

 

Thanks! :)

Well, actually it is a big bore Rb20, so it's a 2,26L, with forged pistons and some other nice bits. I made a topic about it in the RB section.

I think it will work very well in the Z, as it is a very small and light car (around 1060kg), and the sound is half the fun. I'm hoping for high rpm figures :D

      RB30DET timing belt tensioner relocation query

      By zigrb30 · Posted

      G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.

      Smoothline aka Matthew stone

      By DanielStone · Posted

      Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much

      R32 GTR EV? The leaf of the Godzilla's!

      By Ozdavroz · Posted

      😜 hopefully we get this instead of a new R36 GTR due to recent financial problems at Nissan. Nismo to sell a complete kit with RB26 and driveline. All starts making sense (ok maybe not) once the Nissan Leaf's (Leaves?) with stuffed EV motors/batteries hit the market cheap
