gday

yeah mate its a strait six RB30ET out of a R31 skyline. all VL's that were built had an RB30ET (turbo motor) and RB30E (NA motor) and some VL's came with a 304 4.9 litre V8.

Thats rubber in my lane becuase one lane was for burnouts and the other was for cruising the track. Which sucked coz i couldnt get any traction in the lane full of rubber

gday everyone.

Bit of an update on my car.

This week i have booked my car in at KEAS for a new strengthened 3spd auto with 3500rpm stall converter and transbreak. I should be able to pilot my car to low 11- high 10s with semi slicks.

After i get the new auto im gonna save up for a new rebuild with all new injectors, pistons, cam, ecu, computer, turbo, re-do all the wiring behind the dash and in the engine bay.

thanks for ya time fellas

cheers sam



P.S. Is there sumwhere on the site where i can feature my car and put up pics and all the info? thanks
