RB30 reconditioned to an RB30ET.....
I have a 1990 GQ with an 3B30E (also runs on gas) and want to recondition and turbo it...
What are your thoughts??

Was just informed that there is no turbo kit available for the RB30 and the best thing to do is put a VL engine in and build it up from there.... answered my own question lol but for anyone who was interested...

What part of Brisbane are you in?
Reco the RB30 bottom end and put an RB25DET top end and turbo on it.

VQ30DETT-nice! How hard is it to adapt this to the Patrol driveline?
Will it be a custom twin turbo set up, VQ30DETT was only used in Nissan race cars?

Even with one turbo it's still a nice engine - post '98 VQ30DET 210kw @6000rpm, 386Nm @3600rpm on 7 psi boost.

Its apparently quite easy to turbo the RB30 in the GQ's by using parts out of a VL turbo. All the injections gear is pretty much a straight swap, as is the turbo gear. Gq block already has the oil and water lines in the block, good to go.
Im planning on doing a turbo conversion in the next six months or so.
