I also have an Rb30 crank I forgot I had. Basically the story on this is as follows. I work in a machine shop which has an engine reconditioning section. Someone came in and got a fair bit of work done to the crank and then bailed when he got the bill. It sat at work for about 12 months before it was offered to me to recoup some of the losses. Work done to it is as follows; - Crack detected (all clear) - Had the oil pump drive welded up and the slots re machined to cover the whole drive ( much better way than using a crank collar). Welding introduces stress to the crank so it was outsourced and stress relieved. - I did a small knife edging job on it. I didn't want to remove too much weight, just a bit less and also to help it cut through the oil a bit easier. I also polished the casting marks from the counter weights. - The journals are grub screwed - The rear main seal was repaired by myself back to original (if you ever see an rb crank, they are all worn in the seal areas) Depending on what the power output of the motor will be will determine whether the bearings will require grinding (bigger power= looser tolerances). It was a while ago that i measured, but i blieve they were about 0.0005" smaller than the bottom tolereance in the book at work. It will also need to be balanced as the knife edging and polishing will have unbalanced it. I have a shitty pic, let me know if you genuinely want some better ones or of a specific area. Price: $275 slightly neg. pic: I don't know how to edit first post, but the Greddy plenum is sold and the 6BOOST manifold Is sold PP. A lot of enquiries for the engine but is still for sale -
Hey Guys, I have decided i have way too much stuff in my garage and have come to the conclusion and that I'm not going to use a lot of this stuff and am just hoarding. Please pm me and I will give out my phone number for serious enquiries. I'm located in Victoria Point QLD. I'd like to sell the long motor first before the ancillaries, because if I cant sell it and use it, I'll need to buy all these parts (or equivalents) back. Item: I have an Rb25/30 long motor that i bought about 2 years ago as a long motor. I never saw the engine run, though I did talk to the owner at great length about it, he had reciepts from GT AUTO, showed me a dyno printout of it when it was tuned and i watched the oil get drained from the sump and had a good sort through it looking for grit and metal before i bought it. Its been on a stand the whole time and I have kept the sump full of oil and filled the bores with oil, removed the cam covers and oiled the cams before removing the plugs and turning it over by hand (usually done once a month). By looking down the plug hole, the pistons look to have very little carbon buildup. I was told the bottom end was sourced from a low km R31 and had the bearings, piston rings, water pump, oil pump and gaskets replaced. The head is also standard with the external oil line plumbed in. I have removed the thermostat and the water pump has no corrosion and looks quite new. I'm not sure on the km's on the motor since it was built but it was in the car for 12 months before it was parted out. You are more than welcome to do any inspection you like, but I am not offering a warranty. I'm not really fussed if it doesnt sell as I'd like to use it one day. I just cant see that day being any time soon. Location: VICTORIA POINT Item Condition: good Reason for Selling: Don't have a car to put it in Price and Payment Conditions: $1000 Extra Info: It has r31 red top cam covers. long motor only, no manifolds or wiring. has knock sensors Pictures: Item: RB25 genuine Greddy plenum with Q45 throttle body Location: VICTORIA POINT Item Condition: Perfect. I bought this and nismo injectors from a guy who used them on a fresh built rb25. Car spent 5 hours on the dyno and developed a knock. He got the shits and parted out the car. It is basically brand new Reason for Selling: not going to use Price and Payment Conditions: $950 Extra Info: Will come with custom throttle cable to suit R33 (should work with other nissans too). It has also been powder coated black which is why it has no greddy sticker. Pictures: Item: 6BOOST exhaust manifold RB25. Top mount T4 Flange Split pulse Location: VICTORIA POINT Item Condition: Perfect, never been used. Flanges have a little surface rust but i can sand blast if needed Reason for Selling: not going to use Price and Payment Conditions: $1050 Extra Info: Pictures: Item: Turbonetics T66 Turbo and 44mm turbonetics wastegate Location: VICTORIA POINT Item Condition: Fantastic. been used for less than 4 months Reason for Selling: not going to use Price and Payment Conditions: $1100 Extra Info: I bought the turbo off a guy I work with. He bought the turbo brand new for his vl about 5 years ago and had it installed. He ran the car on stock boost for 4 months and he said it scared the shit out of him so he converted it back to stock, sold the car and bought a 4x4. He wrapped it up and put it in the shed and forgot about it. The turbo is externally gated and has a T4 flange. I'm not sure on the specs but it has a .86 rear housing so it shouldn't be a lag monster on a 6cyl. I forgot to take a pic of the wastegate (looks like a wastegate). Pictures: Item: Rb25 Gearbox Location: VICTORIA POINT Item Condition: Good I think. I bought it second hand, was already removed from car. Shifter shifts through gears fine. Reason for Selling: not going to use Price and Payment Conditions: $1300 Extra Info: comes with crossmember Pictures: looks like a gearbox. can get pics if you really want some Item: Nismo 740cc Injectors suit Rb25 Location: VICTORIA POINT Item Condition: great. Used for 5 hours on dyno since new then placed back in box. This was 12 months ago so id recommend getting them cleaned incase some dust has gotten in. Reason for Selling: not going to use Price and Payment Conditions: $750 Extra Info: Pictures: forgot to take pics, can take some if wanted Item: OS Giken Twin plate clutch for RWD RB Location: VICTORIA POINT Item Condition: great. Rebuilt by NPC and driven for about 2000kms Reason for Selling: not going to use Price and Payment Conditions: $900 Extra Info: comes with new throw out bearing Pictures: Item: R32 GTST bonnet Location: VICTORIA POINT Item Condition: good, no damage but has two holes for pins Reason for Selling: sold my skyline Price and Payment Conditions: $100 Extra Info: Pictures: Item: GREDDY Intercooler Location: VICTORIA POINT Item Condition: ok, has some bent fins and some dings but doesnt leak Reason for Selling: not being used Price and Payment Conditions: $100 Extra Info: Pictures: Item: Sard BOV Location: VICTORIA POINT Item Condition: good, works fine Reason for Selling: not being used Price and Payment Conditions: $65 Extra Info: Pictures: Item:RB20 Starter motor Location: VICTORIA POINT Item Condition: good Reason for Selling: not being used Price and Payment Conditions: $45 Extra Info: Pictures: Item: R32 3" exhaust Location: VICTORIA POINT Item Condition: not too bad.

Any Apprentice Or Recently Qualified Boilermakers On Here?
gibbau replied to VB-'s topic in Fabrication
I'm a fitter and turner, but do more welding than machining at the moment. Maybe I can be the ref? -
does anyone know whether I can use rb20 engine mount brackets on an rb30 into an r32 gtst? I haven't put it in the car to test it, but it looks like the engine will sit on a huge lean? I've tried searching but can't find any solid info, the pdf doesn't specify which brackets to use.

Rb25 Greddy Copy Plenum With Tb
gibbau replied to gibbau's topic in For Sale (Private Car Parts and Accessories)
no it sold for asking price months ago -
if you're going to buy cheap, should probably go a KKR. They have a 12 month warranty from memory. They just aren't quite as efficient as garret/hks etc. etc.

I use a VT calais to tow my car. I'm a broke arse apprentice so I can afford anything fancy yet. It does the job just fine, I've towed my car interstate and to about 20 track days at QR (about 200km round trip) and haven't had a problem except the damn fuel cap snapping off. It uses abut 16L/100km towing through heavy traffic areas, not too bad.

Did you break the diff in when it was first installed? i.e. figure 8's for 30mins or so then replacing the oil.

Hey, I have an Rb25 greddy copy plenum with throttle body for sale. I bought it second hand and haven't had a chance to use it. I'm pretty flat for cash atm so I'm going to use the standard plenum so i don't need new piping etc. It has been faced recently, just need to scrape the last of the gasket sealer off, it has all the fittings all tapped in and ready to go. The throttle body has an id of 71mm, stock is around 65mm or so. Has a few scratches $350 ono. pm me or call 0411 421 662 - Zac Located in Victoria Point, just south of brisbane
