Hey guys, coming from Australia we have plenty of fast RB's here, until recently they were the weapon of choice until we caught on with what you guys have been doing for so long with the 2J's.

So what's the fastest RB you have over there? We have a 7.9 second VL Holden Commodore (RB26/30), 7.8 second R32 Skyline GT-R (RB26) and from New Zealand is the fastest GT-R in the world 7.5 second RB26/30.

Do you have many RB30's in the states?

Cheers,PJ

Nothing stateside compares to Heat Treatment's R32 over there, I believe it's the most powerful and fastest RB powered car (w/ factory-ish unibody).

Try pre-loading your drivetrain with the e-brake and a slightly clutch slip. Or just quick slip and don't dump it.

Exactly right, it's all 9" over here. Check out BOOSTN, it's the fastest Commodore here.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x5Aa-X4OBpIAnother viewhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v...lated

Mark's crazy GT-R, one of the most powerful RB26's in the world and 3rd fastest GT-R behind Recce's Heat Treatments GT-R and the HKS monster.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZ3dj2D43qU

The GT-R still runs a factory diff and IRS with upgraded rotating parts

Enjoy!

Nice! i'd imagine that with some tire, i should be able to break into the 11's. its pretty much stock though. i know that is FAR off from 7's, but for a fun street car, it gets the job done. im focusing more on my E30 this year though. ive started to restore small bits of it. suspension and wheels are the proiority the rest of '09.

That's certainly the fastest RB20 I've ever heard of. AWD?

Or could somebody be yanking our legs?
