Got to get block, have a machine, pay for workshop to ahve machine in, pay for consumables for machine (drills etc), pay for someone to mount up block to machine, pay for someone to oparate it for drilling.
That's where the costs come from

What about what size oil restrictors for non neo 25 head with NO vct? It's not on the chart?

Its the middle column - RB25/20 no VVT

 

Hey guys I'm doing my first rb25 build, rb25det head and block. I've been reading this thread for hours, super helpful. I understand with an rb25det vct head I leave the vct oil feed alone, block the middle and restrict the third. Okay now my question is I plan on going from hydraulic to solid lifters, so then do I restrict the front vct oil feed, block the middle and rear or what? i know the rb26 is solid lifters and the rear oil feed is blocked from factory, so the chart states restrict front oil feed and block rear. And do solid lifters rid of the vct? I'm a little lost there.

Rather than the stainless steel wool packed into a stocking has anyone tried sintered brass exhaust silencers (As seen on ebay and the like) to filter the oil.

I noticed that Mishimoto appear to use exactly that.

Would be neater, surely?

Just gave my secret away. They work damn well...just use the biggest bastard/s you can squeeze in

Hey guys I've had a good read of the last 10-15 pages but here goes.

ive got a rb25/30neo, it's a built motor with all the usual forged bits and pieces. 

Oil wise it has an ASR 8.5L sump, n1 pump with billet gears, all drains in the head were enlarged and cleaned up. From memory front oil feed is blocked and 1.2mm restrictor in the rear. Stock rb26 cam covers with 2 3/4 hoses to a small vented can..

Never had any issues with blow bye or anything on 20-25 psi street-drag or dyno.

Just recently fitted a water meth injection kit and running around 30psi, all good on dyno and street but at the drags it started pushing oil out the breathers (about 400ml each run).

Have done a comp test and leak down test and all looks good. 

I really don't want to have to pull the sump off. I have thought about pulling the head off and fitting a rear vent and tee'ing into the turbo drain (spool sells this kit). 

Just looking for some other opinions 

cheers

I don't believe that will do anything but if you are hell bent on it go ahead and report back.

A cheaper option would be to put another 400ml in each run. You can decide whether to recycle what comes out or not.

The real fix is a couple of 1/2 in sump breathers with one draining back to the sump.

And ideally you have a 2L catch can properly baffled and vented to the turbo intake.

I have mine like this. If I had to do it all again, I would probably do a separate drain port into the sump but I can't really be bothered now. Probably doesn't do much but its there

Thanks mate, So don't worry about the head vent. And ideally the sump breathers to catch can are the go (which means engine out).

I was going to go a bigger catch can anyway.

If i was to tee into the turbo drain with a -10 or-12 and run that to top of a catch can would be of any help? 

Decided I'll pull the motor out and fit the sump breathers and drain back etc and a couple other things. While it's out is it worthwhile just to do the head vent/drain whatever you want to call it as well l. Or it's absolutely not needed and save the $200?

    • The values for HID colour are also defined ~ see https://www.legislation.gov.au/F2006L02732/latest/text  ~ goto section 3.9 onwards ....
    • So, if the headlights' cutoff behaviour (angles, heights, etc) are not as per 6.2.6.1.1 without automatic levelling, then you have to have to have automatic** levelling. Also, if the headlight does not have the required markings, then neither automatic nor manual adjusters are going to be acceptable. That's because the base headlight itself does not meet the minimum requirement (which is the marking). ** with the option of manual levelling, if the headlight otherwise meets the same requirements as for the automatic case AND can be set to the "base" alignment at the headlight itself. So that's an additional requirement for the manual case. So, provided that the marking is on the headlight and there is a local manual adjustment back to "base" on the headlight, then yes, you could argue that they are code compliant. But if you are missing any single one of these things, then they are not. And unlike certain other standards that I work with, there does not seem to be scope to prepare a "fitness for purpose" report. Well, I guess there actually is. You might engage an automotive engineer to write a report stating that the lights meet the performance requirements of the standard even if they are missing, for example, the markings.  
    • Vertical orientation   6.2.6.1.1. The initial downward inclination of the cut off of the dipped-beam to be set in the unladen vehicle state with one person in the driver's seat shall be specified within an accuracy of 0.1 per cent by the manufacturer and indicated in a clearly legible and indelible manner on each vehicle close to either headlamp or the manufacturer's plate by the symbol shown in Annex 7.   The value of this indicated downward inclination shall be defined in accordance with paragraph 6.2.6.1.2.   6.2.6.1.2. Depending on the mounting height in metres (h) of the lower edge of the apparent surface in the direction of the reference axis of the dipped beam headlamp, measured on the unladen vehicles, the vertical inclination of the cut off of the dipped- beam shall, under all the static conditions of Annex 5, remain between the following limits and the initial aiming shall have the following values:   h < 0.8   Limits: between 0.5 per cent and 2.5 per cent   Initial aiming: between 1.0 per cent and 1.5 per cent   0.8 < h < 1.0   Limits: between 0.5 per cent and 2.5 per cent   Initial aiming: between 1.0 per cent and 1.5 per cent   Or, at the discretion of the manufacturer,   Limits: between 1.0 per cent and 3.0 per cent   Initial aiming: between 1.5 per cent and 2.0 per cent   The application for the vehicle type approval shall, in this case, contain information as to which of the two alternatives is to be used.   h > 1.0   Limits: between 1.0 per cent and 3.0 per cent   Initial aiming: between 1.5 per cent and 2.0 per cent   The above limits and the initial aiming values are summarized in the diagram below.   For category N3G (off-road) vehicles where the headlamps exceed a height of 1,200 mm, the limits for the vertical inclination of the cut-off shall be between: -1.5 per cent and -3.5 per cent.   The initial aim shall be set between: -2 per cent and -2.5 per cent.
