My rb30det build

so after seeing rb30's in action in australia a few years back i always had the notion in my head i wanted to build 1. so after a bit of help from my mate paul who lives in sydney he sent me a few over. this is the rb25 engine i'm gonna use the head of on the rb30.http://i202.photobucket.com/albums/a...psua7zmujf.jpg http://i202.photobucket.com/albums/a...psvdxlnwbf.jpg
had to weld up the front water gallery to match up to the rb25 head

Cool man

Nice to see something other than a jz being used ����
What are you putting it into

liking this alot cant wait to see more

Good work,, mag drill is the job!

Id love one of these engines but iv heard some horror stories about them!

i've read all the horror stories but i been talking to a lad in new zealand he's been telling me a few do's and dont keeping me right and there's that many build threads on the net just read through them. big thing is dont rev them over 7500. i had planned to put it into my s14 driftcar but i may put this first 1 into my skyline road car see how it goes first then maybe the drift car.

this first engine i'm just using standard internals the next engine will be fully forged as this 1 is just an experiment.
