Hey.

I just bought a trust sump extension for an rb26dett and my aluminium welder has never done one before

Can anyone post up pics of the final installation and a few internal pics too to make things easier

Got the instructions and there all in japanese

Hope someone can help

I can help. hope he's cheaper than the bloke that welded mine! mine was done in japan and cost a farken bomb. :) It's very important though that it's done right, right angle, etc. right penetration, no leaks. it's not very trickey, but it is very important that it's done spot on. so much so that my tuning house building the motor sub contracted out the welding to a specialist.

Vince, if your in Sydney, Dart Automotive can help you.

They welded my Trust sump and several others for SAU members and did an excellent job.

Looking at getting one of these for my new baby and will be hitting the track soon. You guys recommend these? If so where's the best place to get them and what costs am I looking at roughly to get it installed?

install is an engine out job so prob not realistic until you have either stuffed the engine already or are taking it out to do a build

I have had the sump out without taking the Engine out before.

But yes..I agree it may be easier

I don't know how strongly I'd reccomend them. for one they have to be welded to your sump which is quite expensive. and is obviously irreversible. they are also a bit of a compromised design. they also protrude a little lower than I would like.

I chose the trust one as my engine was being built in japan and that is what they were comfortable/familiar with. if I were doing it here I would suggest looking at the hi-octane/hi-energy sump. looks very good and many people have had success with it here.
