    Default 'RB30ET' VL SL Turbo (SA)

    Hey all,

    Thought I may aswell post my baby up.

    I was going to just copy and paste my thread off CT, but may actually post up a brand new one, seeing a bit has changed on the car since.

    Quickly, before I start, beware if your on Dialup lol. Im a bit of a photo fanatic.

    The car originally started off as a White SL NA (RB30E) from Melbourne.

    When I purchased the car it had been freshly resprayed, and had a complete conversion (VLT Rebuilt Engine, VLT Box, Diff etc)

    The car was powered by the RB30ET, a Highflow T3/4, 3 Inch Exhaust, Shift Kitted Auto, FMIC, Trans Cooler. And apart from that, was basically stock. The car itself also has done Genuinely 180"kms. Obviously, the engine has done much less.















    The interior has been completely retrimmed with VR/VS Seats with extra padding and Scheel Head Rests, Series 200 Trims, New Carpet etc.









    After purchasing the car I have done a bit of work to her, but definately not enough lol. Work always gets in the way with working on the car, but ever so slowly it is getting better, and faster.

    New Diff.





    New KEAS Transmission. Built for 350kw, 3 Speed Fully Manualized Auto, Big Stall, with B&M Pro Ratchet Shifter.



    New Plates etc.



    Planning to do a few things over the next several months, though knowing me it will take much longer lol. Bigger Turbo (Garrett 35/40), Aftermarket ECU, Fuel system, Injectors etc.

    Few more pictures for Good Measure lol.









    Cheers all, and thanks for reading/viewing lol.

    Matt

    The car has been down the track, its on the 'FullBoost' DVD, but not certain on what time it ran.

    Once AIR opens (LOL) it will be run, in the mean time, engine rebuild. Have started sourcing parts at the moment.
