RB Sump Bolt Sizes

Hey guys,

I've been lurking about on here for about a year now, but have always managed to find an answer, so ive never signed up! Now I am stumped:

does anyone know the bolt sizes to secure a RWD sump onto an RB26?

Ive ordered a McKinney motorsports sump to suit an RB26 conversion into my 260Z, but the sump uses a different bolt pattern to my original sump, and I don't have a tap and die set to check what size the bolts are

I was wondering if anyone here knew? I'm hoping to test fit the sump on the stand to check for flatness, etc before I continue

 

cheers in advance,

Jamie

Spot on... just got it sorted now.

the original sump for the RB26 uses different bolts, the ones on the outside in the picture. I assume to support the extra weight of the diff...

thankyou very much!

if anyone's after an RB26 sump with front diff let me know, it's just lying around now...

      I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though

      $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.

      Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.

      I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.

      I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
