What's Going On With Everyones Cars?

[Funz]

cheers Frosty. 1990 Ti model with manual conversion, electrics all work, replaced original cut springs and shocks as it was sitting on the ground and the shocks were 100% rooted.

Sure it looked cool being lower.. but not practical as i couldnt even get in and out of my drive way properly.. eg below (got beached maybe once or twice and the cat got hammered, eventually blew a gasket)

Quick question guys , rb20det vs rb30e+t in r31 , which do you think would be the better and why?

30, more torque, cheaper. decent turbo setup will just defeat a 20... Plus a 30 is already in there?

[toffy]

Yeah 30 is there already , manual isn't though . I bought the car to do the 20 conversion , but it came with a turbo and mani to suit

[zoidbergmerc]

put a 20 in there, give the 30 mani and turbo to me for my VL

[Funz]

give me the turbo 30 to put in my 31

this.

find a manual conversion kit.

will end up being around the same price as a 20 swap.

[lawler]

Go Rb20det. Rb30e+t will probly make more power and will have more toqure but having had both rb20det make nicer power and are more fun to drive

[67TUNE]

just de pigying my 32 fixing all the faults and legalising it

if anyone ever has a problem with oil filling there sparkplug galleys in rb##det because of some dead shit thinking gasket goo will do.. ( n i meen fill like submerge ur spark plugs compleatly)

my method was a shit tone of degreaser shove it right in there and sponge it up with a rag and string it out, keep going til its as cleen as u canon all 6 galleys, and then degreaser and compressed air til nic n cleane and leave it to dry i repeted all the prosess 3 times for all 6 galleys that was enoigth, when i was blowing it out i covered up the bay, exterior and window etc completely only exposing the head of the rb, so yeah dont leave ur head covers unsealed corectly for any drastic amount of time guy$ i really made sure it was clean i coukdnt risk and bit going into the bore and seizing it when i change the plugs abd it was just nasty and probly somewhat flamible

[67TUNE]

and nice 'lawler' ive always thought the same, i meen RB20s are getting as cheep as RB30E-Ts now

[toffy]

Cheers guys , I've made my mind up , the 30 will stay , with turbo kit , when it blows I'll slap the 20 in , I have a flowed 25 turbo , gtr injectors and a z32 laying about I'm sooo tempted to whack on the 30 , I doubt the gearbox will take it for long though lol

Gearboxes are made for breaking...
