I have an R34 Gtt running 750bhp it has a forged RB30 bottom end with a neo head. The head currently has Tomie poncams type a fitted and thats all.the mods it has in the head

Im looking at fitting a set of camtech 272 duration 9 lift cams with tomei springs 

Does anyone have any experience with these cams and also what changes should i expect from.the car power and delivery wise.

Are there any other drop in cams worth looking at

What do you use your car for? No I haven't used those cams but I would expect that with tuning you will get a small power increase with the power shifted to the right (higher revs) so great for track car or drag car but probably a downgrade for a street car. I would think 750bhp on a 2wd car would keep your wheels spinning already!

Hi mate, its a Street and track day car. She doesnt get launched as traction is an issue but 2nd gear upwards she shifts pretty quick if you change right you can get it done without a lot of slip.

 

Shes fun ??

 

Im.currently revving to 9k 

Im hoping with the cams and the change from 3" downpipe to 4" downpipe ( turbo is a 4" v band hot side and goes straight to 3") i should get some nice drivable gains, the current 3" downpipe wont let the car boost past 1.4bar as its restricting flow and blowing open 50mm wastegate, shes struggling to breath right now

Sounds like a weapon.  Must be nearly tractionless!  Car pics in your intro thread look good, lot of work involved as many here on SAU can testify.

Could you post up in the RB30 dyno results with sheets? It helps bring things together, allows easier comparison of setups. Being from UK, were you quoting 750 "derived" crankshaft hp, or is that at the wheels?

If you want more high rpm breathing capability, those mods should push things that way.

If you're currently running it to 9000, based on the dyno sheet, begs the question of why?  It's done its best by 7000 and torque is falling at that point.

Sticking with a stock RB30 crankshaft, or have you spent on a fully counterweighted crank?

    • Welcome Jan, It's very likely that you are in over your head. You'll just have to learn to swim hard and fast! These old rust buckets have more ways to bankrupt us than almost any other car. But hopefully there's nothing wrong that ruins the whole show! We can help a fair bit. There's plenty here who've been fixing these things for >25 years. cheers
    • Hi all. First off, thanks for reading my post. So end of last season I put the car away knowing I was leaking at least two fluids. One of them being rear turbo's oil. I went to my car recently that is waiting in a garage to take a peek with my boroscope to try and see if I can narrow down the souce of oil before taking it out of storage. What I found is not so great I think. The rear turbo is (probably) leaking from the oil drain. The hose and it's clamps are probably the original ones, so most likely just worn out or loose. However I spotted a line of rust going straight down from the turbo oil feed, as if water leaked out of there at some point. Also explains the red liquid that was dripping from my front subframe, which I initially thought was power steering. I can even see coolant drops hanging off the side of the oil pan as well. After a quick hit on the web I found a select few discussions about porous engine blocks. My question is if the pics of the turbo oil feed and the left hand side of the block (imgur link below) looks like it could be exactly that to you. Maybe someone in the community has seen it before and knows what it looks like. If it actually is a porously leaking block, has anyone attempted at fixing it with simple methods like putting a sealer in the cooling system and using something like jb weld on the block surface, or will it just leak in 2 weeks again? I could not find any detailed info or pictures on this topic. If I need a new engine, tell me softly. https://imgur.com/a/knVvmZ8
    • Hey all. I'm 23 and from Germany, September last year I bought a mildly modded 1995 GTR Vspec. Looks great and was fun so far, but I already have a list of issues of various severity that I need to take care of, potentially growing longer the closer I look. I just hope I'm not in over my head, I really want to keep the car and work towards it becoming great. I hope y'all will help me out in getting there, I am positive I will need help sooner rather than later to figure out how to proceed. greetings, some pics of the car I posted to imgur. https://imgur.com/a/StKkabz
    • Would be interesting what the price would be without the barracuda wheels. Looks like he dropped it down to 40k. Maybe his mate wasn't correct about the 50k evaluation. Has always been a dream of mine to own an auto 33. Looks like I'll have to keep saving my pocket money or ask mum for more pocket money.
