hay can any one tell me whats the diffrents between the RB30ET and the RB30DET? Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

single cam and twin. d means double overhead cam.

D - Double Overhead Cam E - Electronic Fuel Injection T - Turbo ## - The capacity (3.0L, 2.6L, 2.5L, 2.0L) RB - Aparently means Race Bred So an RB30ET is a single cam 3L with electronic fuel injection and a single turbo RB30DET is a twin cam 3L with electronic fuel injection and a single turbo There we go if that doesnt answer ur question i dont know wat will haha

so ur saying vl's had double overhead cam or is that with a BR25 head?

no VL ever came out with an RB30DET, this is done using the RB25/RB26 head on the RB30 Block I dont think any car ever came out with an RB30DET (Or was there a tommy kiara skyline made with one? dont remember, have a funny feeling it was the 2.8L version of the RB26DETT in this) Someone might be able to confirm that Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

has anyone here done a RB25-26/RB30 conversion let me no, was it much work? i bet a few $$$$ to do it Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

RB25 head you need to meld up some water jackets thats all. RB26 goes straight on. the only thing is the 26 head has 12mm head bolt holes and the rb30 block has 11mm makes very little differenes at all really. 25 head has 11mm head bolt holes. To make the rb 26/30 or 25/30 you need to use RB25 head bolts for both. Even those the 25 in only 11mm, if you go 12mm on a rb26 you need to re-tap the block to suit. I have some friends who have just did the rb25/30 set up on a Stock series 2 N/A engine. with a GT35 turbo set up , making mid 400HP at the rears!!! get for a fast street set up. I am just about finished my 26/30 set up..... i will post power out puts. Using a HKS T51R SPL BB.

RB does not = Race Bred. They're just letters to differentiate different motors, theres no meaning. some poeple say that in diffrent models RB stands for " inline 6 petrol " its just the japs trying to use our alphabet ( as symobs ) Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Black with factory gold badges. middle aged man owns it. stock as a rock. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

You'll find everything you need to know here (http://www.geocities.com/rb30_twincam/).

RB may not mean officially mean Race Bred, but it gives it a bit of a meaning and sounds fairly cool not sure where they get the RB, CA, SR..... etc letters from for there engines but oh well

the last one i done cost 5500 with me supplying everything with forged pistons and beefed up rods throttle response is killer and power is never ending it just doesnt stop pulling

Black with factory gold badges. middle aged man owns it. stock as a rock. No such thing as a RB30DET from factory, its a custom made hybrid made using the RB30 block and RB25 or RB26 head. R32's came with RB20DET's. Quote: Originally Posted by azzaturbo has anyone here done a RB25-26/RB30 conversion let me no, was it much work? i bet a few $$$$ to do it About 15k to do it properly, starting with absolutely zero bolt ons (cooler etc).
