Whoops, yes i did mean catch can, corrected it now. Yes i understand that now. The two goals are to reduce the amount of oil entering the head, and equalize crankcase pressure. The oiling issue is s

less thinking more doing shit that works in the getto Dash ten on pasengers side Two dash 12 on the drivers side, angles and spaced so as not to hit shit and be able to tighten the f**ker up note

I ran my set up right up to 8800rpm at 2 bar (740rwhp) around the track with sticky R-comps the other night and not a drop out of the catch can. This is with no oil restrictors to the head and a stoc

Narrow it down to ill be setting pressure to 70-65psi

Narrow the restritors to

Leave VCt, 1.3mm in the other two

Or

Leave VCt, 1.5mm and block rear, (or should this be block middle 1.5mm rear)

Abr33 are you running a head drain? Also are you running bigger sump with extended pickup?

Doesnt really matter which oil feed gets blocked, it all runs a common gallery for lifters...

I have a gated and baffled sump that I made with better pickup, holds bit over 7 litres. If you need pics I think I put them up several pages back or can send more.

And have a rear head drain/vent also enlarged oil return channels and drilled return holes to 9mm. Also running front of sump to cam vent but will send it to a can soon.

Don't block the rear oil feed it does matter, block the centre at 75 to 85 psi max hot oil pressure if you leave the front restrictor std (which if you want the VCt to operate you should) and block the centre then reducing the rear to as little as 0.9mm combined with using a high volume pump so as oil pressure at idle is 30 psi or greater hot the lifters won't rattle.

So many mixed story's, this thread has a graph on the first page and that says to block the rear?

Fine on a gtr head with solid lifters and no VCt. You have VCt and hydraulic lifters yes? Then don't block the rear, your engine builder would know this if they don't be concerned, mention loss over distance and gauge the response , trust me block the rear and the lifters at the rear of the head will define it for you.

Yeah running hydraulic lifters and VCt, the engine builder didn't wanna put any in for the fact of noisey lifters...

Nitto website says dual spring crack off is 120psi... Single spring crack off is 75psi??

Should I do the single spring to give me the 75psi if this is max?

Hello all.

I've searched but havent found the answer I'm looking for....

My motor is a Stock S2 RB25DET, standard bottom end and oil pump. But has Tomei Poncams and Hi flow OP6 turbo.

Its only street driven but with occasional drags.

What restrictors should I fit.

SK has said Leave VCT, block center and 1.5mm for rear.

From my searching I have found that the standard RB25DET restrictors are already 1.5mm. So all I need to do is block the center one?

Or is there no point in even removing the head to just to block off one restrictor with a stock motor?

Cheers

I am getting a bit of oil through my cooler piping etc as its running the stock breather hoses off the rocker covers.

Will look at a catch can.

Btw motor is out of the car at the moment, hence why I'm thinking of pulling the head to do the restrictors...

Hi everyone my name is stef..I hope someone can offer me some advice as I have read this hole thread from start to finish!

I'm in the middle of a forged rb25det build with an n1 oil pump.. After reading this thread I have come to the conclusion that I need to leave the vvt, block the middle and restrict the rear to 1.5mm. Now upon stripping the engine which I believe has been untouched I have found that all three restrictor a are 1.2mm which has now confused me lol..should I still block the middle supply and drill the rear out to 1.5mm? Thanks for any help

Regards

Stef

Yeah I just got the head off mine this week. The front vct is 1.5mm and the other 2 are 1.2mm

Motor is a S2 RB25DET from a 95 R33.

So should I just put in 2x 1mm?

Depends on what pump you are using. I have an N1 pump RB30 block S2 head and I'm successfully using 2 x 1mm restrictors (street. track and to come - drags).

      I have replaced the larger coolant temp sensor, i do see a smaller one next to it (looks to be just 1 pin) but i assume that is just for the dash? or should i replace that aswell?

      Check coolant temp sensor ~ symptoms fit the hard hot start/cold start OK scenario --- if sensor goes open circuit, ECU thinks engine is cold and enriches mixture ....works when engine cold, but floods them with rich mixture when hot (Hyundi MAP engines are a bit infamous for this)...

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      OK, starter changed for a spare without much trouble. Neil had kindly left space to get to the top starter motor bolt from above with a long spanner which makes the whole deal much easier, and everything else was neat and easy to get at from underneath. Once the starter was changed everything was good, unplugged the CAS and turned the motor on the starter to make sure everything was free and happy. Onto properly priming the oil and first start. I'd picked up one of these oil prime kit from Boost doc a while back and this was my first time using it.  https://boostdoc.com.au/products/engine-oil-prime-kit?_pos=1&_sid=28c628a65&_ss=r While I'd organised all the fittings to hook it up to my GTR (sump plug to -6 feed and -4 T to tap it in and retain the oil pressure gauge, neither suited on this car as the oil pressure needs to T into 1/8 NPT not -4 and the Aeropro sump has some massive drainplug not that factory whatever it is. So, waiting for a couple of fittings, then I'll prime it and do first start, hopefully next weekend. Other than that going well, there is very little stopping a final alignment, tune then shakedown day

      Also to mention, i just tested the CAS, seems to be working fine, can hear the pulses inbetween 0 and 180 degrees, another mention aswell, when i let the car sit for about a hour today, i went to start it and it almost fired on first crank, then just completely struggled. Could it possibly be blocked injectors?, maybe allowing a little bit of fuel to seep past allowing it it almost start first crank?
