RE: R30 skyline

[Terry Rudd]

From what I'm told RB's are relatively easy to shoehorn into a R30, a mate of mine who owns City Exhaust in Braddon (he's good too with custom work, the Rotary boys use him a lot) did a RB30-ET out of Gibson Skyline in his spare time in the workshop and didn't have to butcher anything from what I could see. I haven't been for a spin in it but I can imagine it goes pretty well. One thing that was interesting was he didn't have to upgrade the brakes to get his engineers certificate, I guess as his already had 4 discs and they're pretty good.   Another tempting conversion for a R30 would be the SR20DET - the FJ20ET was a very popular engine swap for the C210, so I can't see why a SR wouldn't be a good swap into the R30.   regards Terry -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Cleary Signs Sent: Tuesday, 18 February 2003 10:20 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: R30 skyline my mates put a RB25det in a old skyine   Heath ----- Original Message ----- From: Jeremy To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, February 17, 2003 8:16 PM Subject: OT: R30 skyline Hey guys, I realise this is off topic but I also know you guys like your old datto�s and nissans, so thought I�d give it a shot�   First off I guess, my mate is off-loading his R30 hatch pretty cheaply.. go here for info and pics: http://board.performanceforums.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=67143041   What I�m wondering though is, I�m guessing it�s got an L24 in it.. might be a bit average, but what options have I got to do to this engine ?  I�ve heard L24 turbo setups are popular ?  Would something like that be relatively easy/cheap/reliable ?  Of course, I�ve also got this RB20det thing going on in the back of my mind.. hmm.  Anyone know of any R30�s floating around with an RB20 in it ?    Thanks for the pointers guys.. it seems like such a waste to just get rid of it like that..   Jeremy --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- --membersozdat------------------------------------------------------- OZDAT Mailing List Please Note:- Send (un)subscribe requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Send submissions to [EMAIL PROTECTED] No unauthorised redistribution of this email http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/index.htm http://www.ozdat.com/ozdatonline/listindex.html http://www.mail-archive.com/membersozdat@datascribe.com.au/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------
