Has anyone fitted an RB without turbos in a Z ? Wouldn't this most ressemble an evolution of a n/a L series, with a DOHC and injection ? Raise the comp ratio and it must be good for 250bhp......no, someone ?
Engine was already build cost was less than my L30 bottom end build (which was N42 running 90mm bore, cast Tomie pistons from Japan, balanced blah blah sold after I sold my 240z race car. Head went with the car (it was a 3.2L) and bottom end to another local racer here in NZ)Power output expected at what revs, torque ? What comp ratio will you run ? Was it expensive to get to that point, ie pistons I assume ?
yes my L3.2 was more than that and my mates L2.9 is more than my old L3.2 (better head work on his 2.9) for me it is the look of a DOHC engine that is all. There is no real performance difference - there might be in MPG but the good old L6 is a good engine Nissan did a great job on the L-GataHmmmm........would you remin us from what crs come the engines you quote - RB26, RB30 ? They are only on Skylines in the UK (I think) and here in France they don't exist !
280flywheel PS - what then is the advantage (aside from a different look under the bonnet) of a DOHC engine - my L3.1 isn't far off that ?
put me in a class where by I would have been up against forced induction cars.
