Popular Post RB30Cory Posted April 26, 2012 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 (edited) Hello Everyone, My name is Cory, I live in Youngstown Ohio and own a home built 1989 Nissan 240sx with a Nissan RB26/30 conversion (R32 GTR head on a Holden Commodore bottom end – AU car only). I also have begun to love fabrication and am just starting to learn how to tig weld which is perfect for my car hobby because now most everything I hated about my setup is getting fixed with properly homemade parts to suit. http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c183/Shockster0429/DarlasFirstsetofpics170.jpg http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c183/Shockster0429/DarlasFirstsetofpics179.jpg http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c183/Shockster0429/IMAG0401.jpg A couple weeks ago catch can project http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c183/Shockster0429/IMAG0406.jpg The car is essentially a 100% street car, its half gutted from the seats back, full interior seats forward. Its raw and a drivers car IMO. I have no ABS, AC, PS (converted my rack to a manual) or another other driver aids. The car has gone 10.84@132.5 on pump gas with a old school PTE6765, the video is posted below, feel free to browse through my other videos I have a few. (go-pro sound pickup on the outside of my car does not do it justice…) The car gets driven everyday its not wet out, or potentially going to be wet out. I almost wrecked it last year just cruising @ 50mph with my ET streets.. it’s not worth the risk. I average 250-350 miles on it a week roughly, its a blast to drive. The reason I joined was because I felt I was too close to a good car scene not to. I plan to make a few weekend visits to C-bus this summer and maybe even run National Trials. I also here a large number of you come up closer to my way every so often so I figured it would be nice to get acquainted.

Mallard Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Welcome! Very clean build and I'm glad to see you drive it a lot. Any links to info on the RB26/30 conversion? This is new to me. Holden used a Nissan engine, or does everything just happen to line up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
