its officially started. ive stripped it down, just need to start ordering parts.

im still a bit iffy about using the stock rb30 oil pump.

rb30 oil pump has a matching narrow face steel inner gear for the drive. much more durable design over the sinterd 20/25/26 pumps. for a slapper id leave it alone. no crank collar or n1 pump. save you $800

whats the tightening order and torque settings and stages for putting the head on? im about to do mine. do you know them yet for when you do yours?

Count the head bolts down the head.

If it looked like for example

1,3,5,7,9,11,13,15

2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16

You would tighten in the order. 7,8,9,10,5,6,11,12,3,4,13,14,1,2,15,16

So from the middle, working evenly out. But you also have to stage them down.

So torque to from memory 30nm, then 90nm, then loosen it off to zero, torque to 110nm, then from memory tighten 90-115 degrees over that.

looks like ill be installing a standard motor for now and slowing down on the rb30 for a while. i'll still be working on it but at a slower pace :)

Stop right now... Take that back... I've nearly done it myself, but you don't want to go from a 30 to a 25.

Why does the 30 need to take a break?

because im selling the car, keeping the f**ked motor and still suing the engine builder :down:

my next car will probably be something like an s15 which ill throw the rb30 into with a 26 head which is why i'll still work on it, but it wont be a priority.

ive already bought the motor. i've almost stripped all the accessories off the old one and transferred it to the new.

      Stock rb25det neo questions

      By Wazmond · Posted

      Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?

      Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card stile AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had not flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).

      So to summarise, the best thing to do is to move recirc to between turbo and IC, and maf on the crossover pipe. Meaning I'd need a recirc flange, drill a hole in the piping on turbo outlet area. And drill hole on crossover to fit/weld maf sensor? Either that or put the MAF on the turbo inlet right?  Is an aftermarket recirc/blowoff valve recommended? Do currently have family in Japan so could probably bring something back with maybe a cheeky lil SuperAutobacs run?

      Lets play a game - What is causing my oil consumption?

      By tsuokun · Posted

      Yep, so far most have said that it looks like corrosion on the wall from piston not moving. Which then has probably damaged the oil rings and caused those vertical marks. The longest the engine was still after the rebuild, was the winter of 2018 - 2019, plus the boat trip to Japan. When I shipped the car, it had normal gas in the tank but before that winter pause, it had E85 in tank.  In any case, even if either one of those was the cause, it happened close to 6 years ago and the car has been driven something like 30 000kms after the fact. Again, apart from the plugs and the dip stick, there is nothing in the way the car runs that would indicate what has been going on in the engine. I am going to consult a shop and ask their opinion, what would be the best approach. I do have some access to a garage I could use to diagnose further myself, but time is very restrictive. Might end up buying another engine that could be used while this one is being remedied. Without pulling the head, it will be impossible to find out if it needs another bore, but here's to hoping a hone would suffice.  Goddamnit, I would really have preferred this not happening.

      Got this r31 silhouette flood car to rebuild.

      By 25RBGT · Posted

      Boot is going to be replaced eventually. I just wire brushed what I could and rust converted. Then painted in rust kill primer. the spoiler also got repainted and plugs replaced on the ends. The under side of the bonnet is going to be black also, currently white. But red on the top side, same colour code as the silo to begin.
