The tee fitting goes in between the feed lines that goes in both turbos...is that where the oil is coming from? how is it coming from there?

Cheers Mate, Thanks for the good info. Im currently getting some new copper washers for the splitter eyebolt and the eyebolt for the feed line on the first turbo. I will be replacing both of them after inspecting the ones that were in at first, they are crocked and squished. Im pretty sure that i covered where my leak was. Im gonna anneal the washers, replace them, clean everything up while im under there and then i can see if it still leak. I have another question, can someone explain to me how the turbos gets there oil?...I dont understand where the oil is coming from, I know theres a line thats goes across the 2 turbos(where the splitter/eyebolt is) and that line goes in both turbos, comes out the oil return lines but I dont know if im missing something I cant seem to figure out where is the oil coming from?... Thanks again for all the info, ive couldnt done it without you guys. Remind me to bring you guys a case of Alpine (Acadian beer) if im ever going to australia. Wil

Alright! Good info guys. One more question if I May ....The oil feed line going to the first turbo, is it reachable from the bottom without takin the turbo off? or do i need to to remove the turbo before I can reach it?....The reason I ask is that im pretty sure my oil leak is coming from the oil feed line and I just want to check the washers if there in good condition.. Thanks again, you guys are life savers, just like pain killers Wil

Is your Hicas solenoid valve still in there? (Page CH-337 in the R32 GT-R manual)...if not then there should be two hoses under there, coming from the power steering pump(Correct me if im wrong).

Just a quick question....How the hell do you get to the dump pipe bolts? Do I need to take somthing off to get there. It seems impossible, tried a couple times but I cant seem to figure it out... Also the oil return line for the first turbo is hard to get at, any tips? Thanks for the info guys. Wil

Thanks Spilmer. Now do I need to take off the front dump pipe off the first turbo before i can get the exhaust manifold off? in the manual it says lower turbocharger before taking manifold off. But i cant see how the turbo will move downwards if its attached to the dump pipe.... Anyone can enlight me on this? Thanks again, Wil

Hey guys, thanks for the tips. Now I think i know where the leak is coming from. its coming from the banjo nut oil feed line going to the first turbo (turbo closes to the front of the car). Im in the process of takin off the exhaust manifold, but i dont know if that nut is reachable from the top or the bottom of the motor. Anyone know? Thanks in advance

Hey, Im searching for an oil leak coming from the turbo side of the motor, its leaking quite a bit and i want to fix it ASAP. So now comes the hard part. I need to remove the top parts of the turbo assembly to take a look at the return and feed lines. I dont want to get to much into the removing, kinda scared to get stuck somewhere. Anyone have any tips? Pics? or How to?... I figured that fellow rb26`ers would like a how to for removing the turbos, anyone? Thanks Guys Wil

hey, My stock oil press gauge is at zero and the light is on, but on my greddy oil press gauge the pressure is showing a healty 46psi...should i be worried?

My gauge reads 0, but my oil pressure light isnt on. When you are talking about the oil pressure light, is it the little light just below the oil pressure gauge?

Hey Guys, As you may or may not know, I was having trouble getting a spark from my newly rebuild rb26. Well, the spark is still missing but I think it might be a problem with the ecu or the cas. First of all, when I crank the engine or turn the cas by hand, the injectors are not operating. I heard that the cas usely is not the problem. Im gonna try to open the cas tonight and see if the shaft isnt cut in half like another one Ive seen on this forum. Also gonna do these test starting on page EN-184 (Skyline Bible) ends on En-187. O.k let say I do the `Injector control Signal`Test on page En-185, and get the battery voltage when the key is on, would that mean that my ecu is working correctly? What else should I check first? Already changed the ignition module, But still getting no spark? Thanks in advance

We took the cas off and turned it slowly, the injectors were clicking. It might be the power transistor(ignition module), ill test it and let you guys know Thanks alot

Motor cranks but theres no spark, we tested the actuator it seems to be alright. Im gonna test the coilpacks right now. the thing is when we pull the spark plugs out and ground on it on the block, crank the engine and the spark plug doesnt spark. I checked the igniter, it seems to be alright. also when we undo the plug it doesnt smell like fuel as been in there. Could it be something that is cutting the fuel and ignition? Is there something else im missing? Someone have a diagram of the connectors?

Anyone know where i can find a camouflage engine cover for my rb26? I know its a long shot, but I would kill for an camo engine cover. It would look good with my rifle in the backseat.

About the Half moon plug EN-70 and the Rocker Cover Screw Grommets EN-57, I have a copy of diagram from the KA24DE from an altima(240sx) 90-??. In the diagram theres a half-moon plug and there is Rocker cover Screw Grommets. Can anyone tell me if there are the same or would fit? ka24de head

I live in canada, Would the thermostat be the same as a 90-93 300zx or Xterra? I would need 6 grommets. Yes its the half moon plug. I guess I might have to order one from Japan or australia. Any suppliers want to help me with that? Thanks for the info guys

Hey guys, During the process of rebuilding my RB26, some parts were misplaced. I need someones help on finding where i can get those parts. 1990 GT-R thermostat?? Thermostat for all RB engines - 90-93 300zx TT 21200-42L00?? So the thermostat should be the same as a 90-93 300zx? Rocker Cover Screw Grommet EN-57(r32 service manual). or can I use just an ordinary washer? On the end of the camshaft, there is a Rubber Plug EN-70(r32 Service manual). Anyone know where to get those? Also, The PCV Valve(is it AAC Valve?) Thanks alot

Unfortunatly I dont have access to a dyno. So im planning on putting the load on the street. Should be the same? Thanks

Hey Guys, I am about to get my freshly rebuild motor and winter is coming very fast. I had set a plan for the breaking of the motor, I wanted to drive it about 4000km normaly, pushing it once in a while and then oil change. What else should I worry about? The question is that I dont know if I should break in the motor before i put her to sleep for the winter or wait until next year to do that? What would be the best? Thanks alot

I will install the tomei oil restrictor, and I have the nismo gasket kit with the 1.2mm steel HG. Thanks for the info on the valve clearances, we were kinda stuck on that, trying to figure why it was so loose. Is there any other information about rebuilding rb26 that you know of?

Im rebuilding the bottom end: .50mm oversized pistons, Main bearings, Rod bearings, N1 Oil pump, 1.2 mm HG Nismo, I'm just looking to rebuild it to standard specs. The machine shop that im dealing with never touched a RB motor cause its not usual to see a rb here in canada but they do alot of dragsters and kinda like nascar motors. They probably know what there doing. But I wanted to know if there were anything (tips) for rebuilding the rb26? Thanks alot for the info.

Having my RB26DETT rebuild by a company that doesnt really know those kind of engine. They have the Bible, and they are following the book. They have really good mechanic, so I trust them no to do anything stupid. But is there anything that I should tell them to not forget or to lookout for? I heard something about the torque plate warping? I dont have any info on that. Does anyone know what that is? Is there anything I should know to prevent any kind of surprise?

I need .50mm oversize or undersize rod bearings. Because my crank is already prepped for it.

Anyone know where I can get a set of .50mm undersize rod bearings? It seems to be non-existing...
