currently building one using the 300k+ block that's already in the car ( seems to be in perfect condition surprisingly so have all my 30's other then one having f**ked vss ) and if i'm feeling adventurous highly unlikely though as i am a lazy flamin mongrel who hates to lay on the floor other then to sleep, the sump will be coming off to throw some bearings in it and to bump up the oil pressure up (lack of driveway).

almost together and consists of

gt35/40 cheapie on a decent high mount and external gate

3.5' superdragger i think

ebay plenum

660cc injectors

decent cooler 2.5" piping

z32 afm ( thinking about going the r35 route thoughts ? )

decent cooler

stock 25det head tidied up and modified for vct

arp studs

stock head gasket not genuine nissan

hdi boost controller

twin tensioners side by side

ebay oil cooler

external bosch 044 with surge

alloy rad

genuine nissan thermostat

cheapie catch can to do the catching

mx7/33box with 4 puck clutch

thinking about limiting it to 6.5 k rpm with the 300k old bearings and stock oil pump or around the 7 mark if i can be arsed to change the bearings.

hoping to pound it with 20psi and am hoping for just over the 300 mark, thoughts ?

Sounds ok I have 314 awkw with stock unbalanced bottom end but with rings, bearings and conrod bolts limited to 7000rev/min and 1.5bar. If you don't do the bearings limit it to 6000 - 6500 and it should make near enough the same power.

Kiwi rs4t that sounds like exactly what i'm hoping to do ! thanks, i have been waiting for thread like this to come up haha.

Superben, Surprisingly the motor looks brand new, the car has been serviced at a max interval of 7,000km's since new and everything that can be seen looks great.

Mine is a completely untouched low km bottom end bolted to a untouched head.

Rev limited to 6500rpm and 20psi putting just over 350rwkw. Only ever gets driven hard too.

Got some blow by at wtac, but that may have been from bouncing of the limiter all the down the main straight.

Cylinder psi is 130 across all 6 but im not sure I check correctly either.

Edit. Does has a 25 oil pump

i just pulled apart my next rb30. has pistons with 67s20 on the top. can anyone confirm if there genuine nissan rebuild ones? the part number on the pistons is the last numbers of the nissan rings but cant find part number as pistons

hopefully they are nissan ones. rebuilt between 100000 and 205000km somewhere

I'm not familiar with stock rb30 pistons, but stock rb26 pistons have 05U and a dot indicating front. So if 67S20 is the end of a Nissan part number it seems likely they are standard. And therefore standard bore as well which is good

    • My plan is to go the pink option. But still add the 4th fitting near the oil cap and just cap it off for now.  That way I can add 2 extra to the sump and have 4 dedicated breathers/drains if I ever remove the sump for any reason. 
    • Oh, yeah, look - here's the thing. You always replace the tensioner when you're going in there to replace a belt....under normal circumstances. You want to make sure it is good and safe, and that you don't create a reason to take the front of the bloody motor apart again. But in this case, OP is replacing a belt that has aged out on time, not usage. The belt is a million miles away from aging out on usage. The belt gets a time "limit" merely because it is made of rubber and can degrade naturally. The tensioner? Not so much. I reckon it could last forever on the current usage pattern. So I reckon if the thing is going to continue to get used at the same rate, replacing the tensioner is somewhat gratuitous. Would I replace it if I was doing it on my car right now? Hell yes. Because my car does 10-20 thousand kays a year. So it's all going to be the same thrashedness. Would I YOLO it on OP's car. More than likely.
    • I dunno. I think any one of those from each side to sump is probably enough. Remember - this is about creating a path for gas flow up from the sump to the cam covers. That gas flow then has to leave via the lines to the catch can. There's probably little point in providing 100% more capacity from sump up to covers cf. what you have from there to the catch can. Put in the 3 convenient ones? Any which way that you see fit. That'd be my thoughts.
    • Getting holes drilled into to cam covers and AN10 fitting welded on. My sump has 2x AN10 fittings on it already. These are the options I have come up with that can be done without needing to remove the sump to add more fittings. In all options front of passenger side cover connects to VCT head drain bung (i know this isn't the best spot but my feeling is it must do something). Option 1 (pink). The back of each cam covers gets its own line to sump. Option 2 (blue). The back of each cam covers are linked and share a line to sump. The front of drivers side gets its own line. Option 3 (Black). Drivers side are Tee'd together and share a line to the sump. Passenger side rear gets its one line to the sump.
    • I'd be surprised if Nissan doesn't mention it in the manual as it seems unlikely that a tensioner is going to last 200,000km.
