ey fellas

got a bit of an issue here i had an RB25DET in my r32 gtst-4 and now im putting the RB into a 180sx i took the 4wd sump off and bought a standard RB25 sump from jap parts plus.. When i wen to put it on this arvo nothing lined up the sump seemed to short which leads me to believe they have given me the wrong one

just wondering if anyone has any other possible ideas to why the so called standard sump doesnt line up with motor??

cheers

what would be the best suggestion im going on atm buying a rwd 25 bottom end and smashing the head off mine on it... or just buying a cheap 25 unless thesre is someone or some shop that possibly sells custom sumps...

You can always remove the front diff and mod your awd sump @ embleton or some other ally welder

if you want to go as far as swapping blocks then RB30 would be cheaper, more torque and theres a few rb30 modded sumps on the market

If you're going that far might aswell get a 30 bottom end and smash your 25 head onto that..

Pretty sure that's your answer to everything....

Lyell can you replace that light globe in the lounge room? "Yeah, I'll smash an RB30 up there" :D

LOL Nathan.. at least in this instance it's actually cheaper and better if he's considering swapping to a rwd block!

P.S. I was waiting for this :(

problem solved guys, was thinking of the 25/30 conversion but in the process of a hopeful/ succesful 26/30 build for my 32..

as i was removing the silicon from the bottom of the block i started digging up little 10mm thread holes in the block, once i cleaned the bottom of the block and changed the pick-up ad dropped the 25 sump on it all lined up, the guys who did the conversion on the car before i bought it muct of tapped out new holes for the 4wd sump and diff... all the stressing and all i had to do was clean it abit

thanks for the advice fellas have a good chrissy!

Second set holes are on all 4wd blocks . If your using tin sump how did you modify mount brackets for bottom row of bolts to hold box against block ??

Are you talking about the wings that bolt to the bottom of the bellhousing?

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      You've just discovered a really good reason to tell yourself, yes, I do need to buy an aftermarket ECU. Put the MAF in the bin. Slap in the new ECU and have a think about what turbo sounds you prefer.  Do you want a 90's style BOV wooosh? Do you want a hektik tsututututu?  Mate, can't go wrong. Just gotta get that ECU and the world is your oyster.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Iam just curisou about this topic. I saw this video. It is about Greddy Type FV2. I know that BoVs are about that sound but how and when to use it? I read some topic here and from what i have understand on stock RB with MAF there will be some "problems" if you use this BoV? It vents the air in to the atmosphere and the MAF on stock car needs this air back in to the intake and not out? Or is it wrong? If so...i saw you can put some adaptor to circule air back...but does that not "loose" that sound? I saw another BoV from Turbosmart and it has two "exhaust" like ports? One is for the stock tubing for letting air back and one is for "sound" and let the air in the atmosphere? Can someone please explain? This is the Greddy one:  And this is the Turbosmart.     THANK YOU!! EDIT: So i read about this topic some more and i if i understand that correctly: That Greddy can function either like BoV or 100% Bypass valve? And that Turbosmart is what they called hybrid so you can adjust what and how many air can be vented out or back in? Is this right? THX!

      That dirty voltage drop is the culprit I suspect

      It's about time I start work on my sun tan. So I knocked up a few parts that will all combine together to become my new power steering reservoir. Now just to produce an abundance of UV and IR rays while melting a heap of bits of alu to become one... Well, that's after I put one more hole in it for the return line to plumb to. It likely won't be this weekend, as Sunday I'm meant to be in doing some last minute stuff to the AMG race car, and the weekend after will be filled with non my Skyline stuff, followed by Bathurst 6 hour. So I don't expect to get to melt metal for at least 3 weeks.   I also managed to stuff up and start cutting the hole for the res to pump pipe on the wrong side of the line... It means instead of the lines being nice and tight against the inner guard, they'll be out off the guard.    The size of it means I should end up with about 1.8L of power steering fluid, and still have space for another half a litre before it reaches the overflow/breather. This is wayyyyyyy more capacity than factory, which should help keep Powersteer oil temps lower, and the design hopefully allows it to prevent any aerated oil being able to makes its way down to the bottom as it'll have a couple of baffles and some hopeful trickery to force air bubbles away from the bottom.
