Hey all, new here.

I am building a RB30 twin turbo engine for my R31, I am upgrading the oil pump, but im unsure what fits straight in and what doesn't

I am under the impression that the RB26 oil pump requires a collar to be added to the front of the RB30 crank?

any advice/thoughts appreciated.

RB30E and RB30ET oil pumps also fit.

:blush: cheers :D

ORLY?????

who would have thought.

I would have used the RB30E pump, but everyone is saying that it'd be silly to do that, as the engine would probably run out of oil, the pump would have to support 2 turbos as well, so its upgrade time.

MAG86, i didn't think it was too bad, I was going to go with Suck_my_fat_wang, but it thought that was just a little over the top :wave:

the best usernames are allways the ones that cause a littel controversy!

I could have allways gone with Jihad_in_my_pants, Im sure you wouldn't have any probs with me slaggin of on a religion that isnt yours? (big assumption there, sorry if im way off)

anyways, thanks for the info fellas, much appreciated.

so how did you go with that on the RB30 crank, did it need the collar fitted?

I haven't fitted a collar yet, and im sorta thinking i wont need to, as the engine isn't being built for revs.

to my understanding, thats the main thing that kills them?

Im running a 32 gtr pump on mine, havent had a problem, went straight on, way cheaper then the rb30et ones, and i wouldnt even bother with the standard rb30e pump, looks the same but flows different. I have been told that all rb series blocks share the same water and oil pumps, but someone might have to verify that..

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
