The RB30e in the n/a VL is the same as the RB30e in the Skylines. The VLT has a different cam and injectors and the Skyline GTS has a different cam again. You might get more boogey if you can find a GTS cam.... but they're as rare as hens teeth Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

You could always do what i have done. Get one that says NISSAN, and polish it up nice and shiny. Will add around 50kw at the rear tyres, easy. Cheers Mick Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Yeah... i must admit it looks quite good actually... no need to sandpaper it... just clean it up nicely first and then go for it with the autosol... if you have a drill with a buffer attachment, it makes short work of it and yeah, i took it off, put it on the coffee table with heaps of newspaper underneath it, and watched racing on tv while i polished it up... too easy.. takes about 5 mins to take it off, and another 5 mins to put it back on.. (just make sure you put a rag over the top of the exposed motor when u take it off so no **** gets in there - best to also close the bonnet while its off inside being polished up).
