I’m gonna rebuild my engine soon. Spool forged kit built for drag racing. Supposedly can handle 1,500 hp (grout filled block obvs) and 10k rpm. It’s primarily a street engine so I’m looking at the 400hp mark for the time being but want to take it further. Ideally 700hp but I want a Dry simp kit that doesn’t replace the A/C pulley so until I find a crank driven (or find a good aftermarket pump drive that won’t grenade at high revs/power) I’ll keep it at or below 500.

Any RB that’s not a 30 or an N1 has overheating issues in race engines beyond 500 whp that causes cylinder 6 to run lean and eventually disintegrate the Piston. But being a street car I think I can get away with just short bursts.

Think I can get away with it without shortening the lifespan of the engine to less than, say, 2 years? By then I’ll either save up for an N1 with a 2.8 stroker kit or put it back to stock boost/cams and keep it as a daily.

Main reason being there’s a few Supercharged LSA Commodores getting around my town talking like their car is the tits and I wanna embarrass them in an alleged ricebox.

I’ll be getting that power to the ground and stopping it with a GTR 6 speed converted to rwd or a V161 adapted to fit the RB, Nismo LMGT4 wheels, Brembo Brakes, coilovers that can keep it flat during those heavy weight transfers, upgraded driveshafts and a straight cut final drive.

A 10k rpm Rb25det NEO would sound tasty.

I hear that

truuuuuuuuuuueeee 😂😂👌👌

do RB25’s have FERGED INTURALS

do RB25’s have FERGED INTURALS

not from the factory. Just cast Iron I think.

disregard plan

ls swap instead

Always ls swap

disregard plan

ls swap instead

THE POINT IS TO SHOW LS OWNERS THEIR ENGINE IS BAD BY BEATING THEM WITH A MILK BOTTLE YOU CUNT

no you fool that’s what an 8.0 twin turbo V10 viper is for

the point is they’re obsessed with “muh displacement” when RBs make up for their torque curves with  RPM.

If you don't make peak torque by 3k rpm then get the fuck outta my face with your gokart motor weed whacker bullshit

do Diesels count

diesels are cheating

but it looks cool when they run away and throw the entire fucking engine.

my engine is the v6 version of a v8

if I blow my engine (I think it’s making like 420 bhp right now) then I’m going to m113k swap it

barra swap it

that would be pretty good if i could get it to work

Yee, cheap hp too. The stock bottom end can handle a tonne of boost.

i already got the soundtrack 😂😂 legit thinking about converting to Scissor doors and underglow too

I made a playlist of the music from Hot Pursuit 2, Underground 2, and Most Wanted on Spotify. I drove down PCH a while back for a little bit while listening to that and yoooooo

Payback has some 🔥 tracks too. They’re showin my boys Royal Blood some love and keeping with Queens of the Stone Age.
