Well I want the bottom end to be bullet proof. Customising pistons through CP's is only an extra $200 from experience, so why wouldn't I go for that and have the peice of mind knowing that I push the motor to its limits.

No engine is "bullet proof"; otherwise the professional race cars, with their unlimited budgets, will make them :(

The only way round this is to make a 1000hp engine and only use 400hp :worship:

Hey guys im finding that when fitting the RB25 oil / water cooler onto the RB30 block that the filter fitting is quite loose over the RB30 filter thread. Any tips for removing the RB30 filter thread and fitting the RB25 o-ring setup for the oil / water cooler.

I'd prefer to keep it than just run it like the VL/R31 skyline setups.

if you do a search in this thread for my name you should find some info on it. i remember going through this dilema and i posted up some info, but i forget now and i ditched the std cooler arrangement :blink:

thanks shanef! been searching before posting a bit actually, but the answers seemed to point back at using the std RB30 setup which it looks like you've done. I know the RB25 setup can be done tho!

bout half way down theres the info i was thinking about! :blink:

hey guys i just ran into a problem as i was filling my car up with water i found a leak out the water pump. the pump i am usin is a n1 pump and it is leaking out the m6 bolt hole. i have tried using some lockseal but i cannot stop it leaking. it is not under presure so i wanted to know how i can stop tis leaking

thanks

i just found out a couple of my valve guides in my head are split. Nothing major it happens sometimes thats why they make bronze sleeves for the valve guides. How crap is this Hi Octane are the only company i can find who sell them for rb25 head and they want $700 for them. ive got no choice but to pay it. Ahh so much money

Anyone using cooling pro intercooler from Just Jap? looking at the GTR style tube n fin, just wanted to know if the internals are any good or just a bit of shit? Anyone got one, or pics of inside one? Cheers!

Contact JHH performance ( they are in Bris ) - Im sure they can replace them for considerably less.

Cheers

umn so how do i get a compression ratio of 9 instead of 8.3...... i'm sure it's in there but i stopped reading at page 23... i read that using the N/A head will give me compression of 9? how is that so? the n/a head gasket?????

much appreciated.

i'v got an rb30 with only 105,000k's and intend to drop a 25 straight on. looking for about 500hp. if it blows up il put another bottom on!

    • I’ve got one on mine and it’s fine, 
    • No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
    • Ye, in terms of bolting up the "Conversion" from a GT to a GTT is effectively "Use GTT parts for everything" Except the subframe itself, because you won't want a HICAS/4WS subframe. Remember your ABS system will be different too, thanks to GT being the S15 3 sensor system, instead of the R34 4 sensor system for wheel speed. I do not know how people get this to work given R34 diffs do not have a provision for an ABS sensor (they are on the tone wheels of the axles). I assume***** people use S15 gear/R34NA forever when they realize this - Or they convert it to a rear diff/axles that are R33 style which I presume has the singular speed sensor on the diff itself, but then you have to wire it all in and...and... and...
    • Foreshadowing was never so easy.
    • The ones in brackets are the first stages of tightening. I usually aim for the middle of the range. They give a range because it's actually not that critical to hit exactly the right bolt tension. Enough is enough, and too much is too much, and the range given is inside that range. Half of the bolts in the suspension are problematic for putting a torque wrench on anyway, so just get done up to mechanic tight  and spanner checked a week later.
