by the time u addin price of of crank, sleeves, and so on u coulda gotten a rb25 heh, people usually get the r32 cranks which need the tomei or jun coller, the sleeves, and so on, thats already close to 1.5k and that 1.5 k u coulda used towards a rb25 which hs stronger trans, as wel as stronger stock turbo, i think larger inj, and obvously more displacement, anyhoo u can get rb24 info from meggala.com i think

bleh, rb24 again.....in all honesty its not cost effective to do a rb24, if you had the stuff laying around then sure, it might be fun.look around on skylines australia, there are plenty of threads covering this topic.stick with the 20, or if you need more displacement bore it to a 22, but really the 24 isnt worth the money invested.

Im in the same boat, ive been trying to search to read about the rb24 but nothing came up and then i ran into this post... So if you go rb24 do you have to get sleeves? or can i just bore it out to work?

if u got cheaply would u be interested in selling and using l00t towards a rb25 cuz i know ppl who want a rb20 seriously unless yer motor died and u want a full project i wouldnt stroke it, have u guys looked into the rb30 builds if u want high displacement tons of info on aussie sites... actually i have a rb25 crank,pistons, and rods if u want them for strokin purposes

Here is the link to the meggala web site about the RB24.http://meggala.com/rb24.html

I was going to do the conversion with spare RB26 parts I had. A few months ago I sold the RB26 crank. I had purchased a supposedly complete RB26DETT assembly less the block. The head assembly is going on a RB30 bock.

I still have a set of the RB26 rods if you are are still interested in building the RB24. It's always fun to be different and unique.
