  1. hi guys. i pulled out my engine a while ago and and now almost ready to put it back in. i have the rubber bits of the engine mounts and the left hand side silver metal bit that goes ontop of the black rubber mount but i noticed i dont have one for the right hand side. it probably had one when i took it out but must have got lost. what are the silver sheet metal bits? can i get a right hand side one seperatly if i really need it? do i really need it? thanks

  4. tuff rb30 here mates
  5. so they are stretch to yield bolts?

  7. its standard pistons again and genuine nissan headgasket. getting different shop to tune it. talked to one of the main skyline guys and he said 450rwhp should be fine but get the guys im using this time to tune it yer ok il get new ones
  8. hi guys wondering if i can reuse my rb25det headbolts that were new last time. the motor failed early so the bolts are new sorta. the car only did like 250-300kms. were done up for a few months. didnt get to do the retighten rekn theyd still be any good? they copped one dyno run of 450rwhp. then pistons broke

  11. found a pic in google images that led me to this great thread http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/73824-adj-camshaft-pulley-new-cam-belt/
  12. hi guys. im putting my rb25det series 2 head back on my rb30 bottomend. need to know what to line the cams up to so there set properly. thanks guys
  13. i didnt install the pistons into the block therefore wasnt responsible for setting the ring gaps. what other stuff is in the bunch of stuff i didnt check?
  14. maybe he gapped em as per the application they were intended for? that being a non turbo rb30. tuner guy said that they have expanded on boost and grabbed. something like that. he also said its common for it to rip the whole top of the piston off when it does it
  15. hi guys. if ya know any good vids off youtube and stuff put em up in here. be good to see em all and we can use em for motivation to keep going and get em running. hope to see a couple o good ones soon to make me go downstairs and do my work
  16. shop put the pistons in. not tuner shop but another engineering shop
  17. another twist on the story... just went to the guy that tuned it and had a talk. i only took one piston in but. had the top ringland broken out and the bottom ringland the bottom broken but still in there abit he talked me through his diagnosis. says its from insufficient ring gap. showed me where it had butted together and says it has grabbed in the bored and the motor had pulled it apart from holding the ring and pulling the rest of the piston down. sound right? sounded right when he went through it with me.
  18. yeah might take the bits somewhere else to see what they say.
  19. the rings arent broken. they still good
  20. thats the way the guy explained it to me. that they broke from too much boost pushing down on them by the rings. dunno what power there rated for. there only n/a replacements. was hoping theyd be same as nissan pistons where ya can make heaps of power on em and lots o boost. nar not gunna contact the manufacturer about them
  21. it did make over 3 times the power than the application theyre made for lol
