RE: Oil Squirters

My RB30E block apparently didn't have enough wall thickness to tap in to.

We've got a na r31 rb30 skyline bottom end @ home with piston oil squirters (conrod). Might be one of the rare ones?

There not piston oil squirters.. They squirt a little oil on the load side of the bore. :P

Check the rb30 guide for a pic of piston crown oil squirters.

I need to find the bloke who stated the rb30et blocks have oil squirters... Thread was around here some where.

Yeah I saw that thread too, but they definatly don't - only way is if someone has put them in afterwards.

Yeah, I have an ET block floating around here somewhere actually. :)

But anyway, I actually called up boostworx today, if only I could find some s2 coilpacks or an S1 loom I'd be in business almost. Pretty much taking it down there next week anyway, with the instructions not to call me until its running because I'm sick of seeing it. :)

Got almost everything else bolted up and ready to go, just have to finish off the last min. bits over the weekend (finish relocating the battery and put the steering column back in hehe!).

:lol: I remember saying the same thing to Shaun when dropping my car off to get it finished...

does the RB30 allow for use of the factory oil cooler from the RB25?

if you dont want to run it are there any things you need to do to allow the external coolers sandwich plate to bolt to the block without leaking?

so with the filter direct to the block i does have issues with the thread being too long?

havent pulled apart the std oil cooler to see if it runs its own separate thread for the filter or not.

    • No not yet.  Hopefully this weekend if I can pluck up the confidence!  I had to sit in the car at one point yesterday to unbolt the rear struts.  As mentioned in an earlier post when I was putting it together there is still a bit of rotation possible so when I sat in the car, it rotated a little bit.  I near shit myself thinking the whole thing was coming down!  I do 99% of my own shit in the shed but I think I might call on some assistance the first time I spin it!
    • Strong first post. On a Skyline-centric forum. Have you considered actually going out into the world, visiting the actual dealership, and asking the parts guy over the counter? Or at least just call them up on the phone?
    • Should shit that in as for the driver ability probably not
    • Trying to find the plastic under cover for an 04' Forester X. The main under cover that covers most of the front of the vehicle under the engine. This has turned out to be a crazy experience. Normally I can find parts for vehicles, if I have the correct info, no problem. But not this! The Forester is a non-turbo btw. In a Forester parts catalog, for model years 03'-06', it shows part# 56410SA070 as being the correct part. So I go to the local Subaru dealership's website to order it. I type in the part#, hit search and there it is, the under cover. "DOES THIS PART FIT YOUR VEHICLE?" I type in my VIN# and sure enough, "This Part Does Not Fit Your Vehicle. See Similar Parts For Your Vehicle." I click on that and part# 56410SA000 comes up. Looks absolutely nothing like the previous part. Not even close. So I go to a different Subaru dealer website and put in that 2nd part# (56410SA000) and "This Part Has Been Replaced By" 56410SA070, which is the first part I looked up. I thought OK, makes sense. They replaced the strange looking part, with the one I looked up first, so I add it to the cart. "Does This Part Fit Your Vehicle?" I type in my VIN#, and sure enough, "This Part Does Not Fit Your Vehicle." I've basically been doing this with various parts suppliers and dealerships, for the past 4 hours! Does anyone know what the hell is going on?? Thanks in advance!   
    • have you rotated the car yet? if so how smooth was it?
