Theyre called RB30's and I think the RB30ET is the only turbocharged type, from what ive seen they are hard to find, and are priced between $1500 - $3000

Hi Guys.

Yes, there is an RB30 (with a carby), but it wasn't used in a Holden.

The only car released in Australia with an RB30, was a cheap version of the GQ Nissan Patrol.

FYI RB30's arnt the only engines in the series there are also:
RB20's (2l)
RB25 (2.5l etc)
RB26 (the dett version is from the godzilla skyline )

rb26 is the best of the series but are vry expensive e.g. the twin cam heads of these go for around 2500-3000$$
