R33 Rb30 Conversion

[Skyrine-Dave]

the solenoid will have to be wired up to an output driver of the wolf.

i have an EBC solenoid wired into an output of my EMS and i control boost by changing values on the Pulse Width Modulator (PWM) value. Its pretty much just a way of tellin ghte valve when to open and what KPa to regulate boost to.

[MonstaS4]

One side of the solenoid will go to +12v, the other will go to pin 5 (red/white) on the Wolf. I think you also need a diode across the solenoid to prevent damage to the Wolf, so it would pay to check the install manual.

The PWM frequency needs to be matched to the solenoid being used. I have a haltech solenoid which operates at 33Hz. You can change the solenoid opening amount every 500RPM.

Not sure on the hose hook up. I've heard people say the bottom port is always connected to the inlet manifold and the solenoid is connected from the inlet manifold to the top port of the wastegate.

cmon guys...65 pages long now..do you wanna read that much to end up on solenoids??

[GTR-Ben]

There is a lot of random crap in here.. that's why people are making PDF's to explain all this info

I will add all my info when done on the RB30DET with RB26 head.

wolf.... meh..

[Skyrine-Dave]

for those of you going front facing plenums,

i'm looking at gradenko and Bl4cK32 here (the only ones i can remember off the top of my head)

What are you doing for an accelerator cable?

i have been told to get an s14 cable... is there any difference between an s14 and s13 cable?

and for those putting RB25DET 5spd into R32's... how are you combatting the speedo sender problem?

[Bl4cK32]

The rips comes in kit form with modified cable and throttle body

The speedo, as far as i know, is the bottom haf of the r33 one, with the top half ground off. Then they use the GTR top screwed in?...i dunno came out of another 32, so i didnt do jack

[Skyrine-Dave]

haha dammit..

what about your speedo cable to RB25det 5spd?

i've found this which may be suitable.. but i'm sure someone on here with more knowledge will shut me down... ie SK

Stolen from Calais Turbo: http://www.calaisturbo.com.au/showthread.p...ighlight=navara

Nissan Navara speedo sender. Total cost of ~$23

One thing i'd be concerened about is the ratios of that gear. But the VL guys seems to use that in their MX7's and RB25det 5spds.

[Bl4cK32]

ring James at D1 Garage here in Adelaide. He was telling me there the Japs make a sender for the unit.....he can get one for you - their purposely built for the r33 box in the r32

[Clint32]

its easy people, buy a gtr 32 speed sensor, remove the 33gtst one and take the gear of the end, put the gear onto the 32 one and put it in the gearbox and screw on the speedo cable

Clint,

Hows the spedo read with the 4.363:1 R32 GTST rear gears?

[Clint32]

seems to be correct joel, well i never got a ticket driving around so maybe a little low

[GTR-Ben]

I have the problem of having an electric speedo and cluster.

But you can use a proximity sensor and hook it up to the drive shaft etc, and adjust the signal to work with the electronic speedo.

[Wilso R32]

If im using an RB25DET gear box ect in my R32gtst with an RB30 conversion, wat speedo set up would i use?

R33 gauge cluster and speedo unit

? bearing in mind i need mine converted to MPH

[GTR-Ben]

R33 Cluster will not fit into the R32.. unless you make it fit.

I think electric is easier, as an auto elecrtician can always make the signal work, and convert it to MPH quite easily. Can also be setup exactly right for your tire size and diff etc.

Could always just do a complete custom cluster setup..

hey guys looking for info on putting an RB30DET into an S13 Silvia. my clutch and starter motor recently died so while its out of action i thought i might put a turbo engine into it and i had this engine lying around doing nothing anyway. Im after parts ill need and also anyone near springwood, brisbane that can do such a conversion, and possibly a price. i know its not the best choice of engine but seeing as i already have the car and engine it works out to be the cheapest.

ill also need info on documentation ill need (ie. mod plates, engineers certificate, etc.) thanx for any help

Didnt i tell you to read the entire thread first ??

GTR-Ben may have some info for ya.

[Jaws]

Thats my concern, you hear all the Nizpro guys producing great figures and doign great times, but are the engines hand grenades, are they durable etc. Ppl have a tendency to keep to themselves when they have a failure

This comment has got me thinking...

We hear of lots of people building these motors but not many who have been driving for some time.

I have heard of people who had these engines (rb30det) but wont say why the engine no longer exists.

SK has stated in the past that the R32 GTR oil pumps tend to fail with hi rpms and rb30's have trouble with oil temp.

Is there anything else we should know? I don't want to have to learn the hard way after spending the $$$.
