Im just about to fit my 26/30 in the engine bay of my R33 GTST. The steel engine mount brackets i got with the block doesnt line up with the RB25 rubber mounts in the bay though :S

I feel really stupid here but anyway, it seems like the angle of the brackets is a bit to much and they just seem like they should sit closer further ack on the block :thumbsup:

Also if someone got pics of their mounts i would be glad!

Use matching brackets and mounts..

It sounds like you have RB30 mounts on the block and 33gtst brackets in the engine bay.. IIRC the RB30 mounts sit the engine slightly further back than the 32/33gtst mounts.

All help is appreciated! Heres 2 pics of how the brackets and mounts look, have i missed some part? ;)

they don't look like R33 brackets, use the ones off your old engine and it should bolt in without much fuss.

Thanks for your help! Ye i was really fussed about what brackets to use with what mounts ;)

TiTAN> I can see you have a R33 GTS-30T in your info, so you say that i can/should use the factory R33 GTST engine bracketes and mounts?

Might have solved the problem! Im using universal rubber mounts with an offset of the bolts of about 40mm, bolted straight in. Might make a spacer for the LHS engine bracket since the engine is leaning a bit and he bolt and bolthole doesnt flat out :spank:

Anyways, the engine is in place and i can start with the exhaust manifolds!! Yeeeaaay :D

BTW, the rubber mounts costs 10 AUD/piece :)

I know I'm pulling out an old thread but I'm doing the same. 

A rb26/30 into R33 S2. 

And was told that i need custom mounts as the rb30/26 is taller then a Rb26dett or Rb25det to it fouls the bonnet. 

 

Is this true or not. 

 

Cheers.

      It depends on what the guy who bought its Ratio is. Mine is a 4.36 Jus Jap told me anything above a 3:9 has equal length shafts which the Nismo center's shafts were not.

      If those shafts in the last 2 photos are the ones that came with the diff, you have no hope of fitting the other ones because they are completely different

      Nismo 1.5 way Stub axle issue

      By OO Dan OO · Posted

      I have recently fitted a Nismo GT Pro Center second Hand buy still in the box i got stubs with it but they are 5 bolt and I need 6 (3x2) I was told by Just Jap that for a 4:36 ratio the stub axles are equal length sku 38220-0V161. They didn't have any in stock but I picked up the ones pictured. The one with 5 bolt are the ones that came with the LSD. The right side went in no issues but the right....I have happened the fk out of it put it in a press and it still sticks out about 5mm too far. It was sticking out about 25mm but after bashing it like Chris Brown did to Rhianna I managed to get it a bit further in but seems stuck again now. Any ideas? Should I just leave it 5mm out and send it?

      Meh. I "see" a typo above, that should have been "sell".

      Nismo copper mix twin “pull” pedal height engagement

      The clutch pedal has a procedure for adjustment. This can only be done after you are 100% sure the system is absolutely free of air bubbles. You must bleed the clutch master cylinder first, then the "separation pipe" which is the clutch damper line, then the operating cylinder as detailed in the service manual. Also, you must fully depress the clutch pedal between shifts. Just because you can't feel it grabbing does not mean the input shaft is truly decoupled from the crank. At high RPM clutch plates are vibrating and moving around, you need to give it the best possible chance of success. On the BCNR33 Nissan revises these adjustment procedures slightly but not by much: I would be careful with trying to play games with these adjustments. As for the Nismo operating cylinder they say a lot of things. In practice the twin plate clutch needs less movement on the clutch fork to disengage because the whole stackup of the flywheel + friction plates + pressure plate is much taller. Personally if you find that the clutch still disengages too high at the top of the travel I would try the Nismo operating cylinder. Make sure to follow the air bleed procedures.
