I can't believe how picky some people are. RB engine, 3.0L displacement. End of discussion. Bolt on's have nothing to do with raising or lowering the cubic capacity of an engine.

no he is saying if the rb30 came out twin cam then calling it a rb30 would be cricket

if it comes out SOHC elec injectord and turbo 9it did) it would be called a.. RB30ET if it come, Twin cam non turbo RB30DE if, twin cam twin turbo RB30DETT if singe cam, twin turbo RB30ETT if it was on turbo, single cam (it did) RB30E If it was twin cam single turbo manual injected RB30DMT If it WASNT 3L or didnt use a 3L block it would be NOT RB30! i see a patten...

Think of this, most magazines list the engine purly as what the block is (factory) jus as i said before. Than thats why there is a collum for engine and a collum for intake. Dont see ppl going L98/LS1... No its a LS1 and on the intake list it will say L98 Heads. RIPs motor is what the block is... 26 or 30 not sure my self.. With a nice mod list to read.

That's exactly what I just suggested, however M stood for mechanical injection, not manual.

Quote: Originally Posted by ANK no he is saying if the rb30 came out twin cam then calling it a rb30 would be cricket Can you clear this up [T]Matty. The way I read what you said is that wether it's twin cam or single cam, aslong as it's a 3L RB bottom end then it's an RB30? Is that right? Jason.

Thats what im saying.. and thats what ank is saying i think also? EDIT: im saying i agree with you aquabat, RB30 no matter what the head is.. a head is a bolt on accessory, nessersery or not, its a bolt on.

I thought you agreed with me. Ank seemed to think you agreed with him. Hahaha, I got confused it all. Jason.

26/30 could mean it's a single cam 2.6L Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

ooh man that would be a good mod! Sohc 26.. worse then the factory NA 26s..

Why cant you register a 25/30?

Im not sure on the ins and outs of it but it could be cause its not the factory engine, which does sound stupid as heaps of cars have non factory engines. It needs to be registered with the factory rb30 and then engineered later with the 25/30 I believe.

i can see what your saying anyway let the thread continue rips is on crack claiming fastest rb30 but if thats what makes him sleep at night so be in there good at what they do

thread moved to a more app section since it's all technical

Quote: rips is on crack claiming fastest rb30 He's hardly gunna claim fastest RB26 is he, when it has an RB30 block.. Why don't you go huff and puff to Zoom, who printed the front cover "TYPO" you seem so hard up over...

An RD30 would be deisel. With a petrol head, its no longer an RD. If you want to go by the RD30 bloody naming then you have to call it a 26/30, you can't have it both ways you have opposite arguments!! So let me get this completely clear. If the engine has an RB30 block, but a 26 head, it should only be called an RB30. But if you take an RD28, make it petrol, so no longer having the D suffix, and 3 litre, it should still be called a RD30. Thats all kinds of weird and f ucked up right there Kyle Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
