A quick and dirty guide on a couple of the “no replacement for displacement” adages. OS Giken has a couple of kits they sell. Nissan has an RB30 block. HKS has a special High Deck block.

 

OS Giken RB30 – A spacer plate, open deck block 86 mm bore and stroke work out to 2996 cc. The picture to the left is interesting. Twin T78’s on an RB30.

 

 

 

rb30kitOS Giken RB31 – This picture is actually of the RB30 kit, however it is the same kit with a longer stroke. More or less the same. Not exactly the same.

   

 

 

 

 

blockpistons-RB30 Nissan RB30  - The Nissan RB30. The “taxi” block. There is no replacement for displacement,and on the cheap, this is the way many people go. It requires a modified oil pan pickup, and an adaptor to bolt up to the RB26 all wheel drive oil pan.

HKS-Hi Deck 28

HKS High Deck 2.8 – The elusive HKS “high deck” block. It appears to be only a sleeved and deck plated block. They probably run a long rod in it to make some more torque. This was supposedly the block in the 7 second HKS Drag R33. There are a couple guys in the UK running it, and a few of the more serious drag GT-R’s in Japan.
