RB30/26 oil cooler kits - direct to block


Recommended Posts

Hey guys, looking at the many HKS, HPI and Trust oil cooler setups. It appears they attach on top of the stock RB26 cooler setups, Im looking for one to completely bypass all that and go direct to the block.

 

Requirements:

1) Has provision for v-cam/both OEM oil sensors. Hopefully these are located after the oil has passed through the oil filter. HKS requires oil line location after filter or adding screen mesh in line.

2) The filter can be stacked on top of plate or relocated.

3) Is thermostat equipped.

 

Am I overthinking this? Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Um, what?  Take off the RB26 oil heat exchanger and replace with an RB30 oil filter stud.  Same as it's always been.  Sensor ports and supplies for V-Cam etc are simply a matter of making do with what is on the sandwich plate and using a T or 2 if needed.

    • It's just one of those bugbears that I bring over from Facebook. Lots of people think the dividing line between them is Sedan vs Coupe or Manual vs Auto for some/any feature but it's always NA vs Turbo (or GTV). I have no idea if GTV got the GTT rear end. I'm just gonna pretend I know and say "yes they did"
    • I believe (this is a great silviaz thread where we must all interpret) that he is asking how to put a GTR cluster into the car. But because the dials are reversed on the GTR (speedo and tacho are swapped positions) he's asking how to do it. The answer is you buy a R34 GTT Nismo dash, which also has 320kmh on it, and will plug straight in. The longer answer is it IS possible to configure a GTR cluster to work in a GTT, so if you somehow got one of those cheaper than the Nismo GTT cluster, you could configure it to work. Whether you have the time/skills to do it and whether it's worth the $ is another story. There's probably GTR to GTT cluster information out there. In threads like this one. I assume also what is being asked is he doesnt want to change the whole cluster. Just the KMH dial itself and put it back together in another cluster, then recalibrate the speedo needle so it doesnt show 320kmh when the car is doing 180, and is asking how to calibrate that. Which is doable with like a Dakota Digital speedo/signal interpreter box but jesus man just buy a cluster.

    • Hang on, You want to put a 320km/h faceplate on a 180km/h speedo? That's not how it's done. You get a 320 km/h speedo. It's probably relatively simple for an instrumentation specialist to recal a properly electronic speedo like that, provided that there is a means provided to do so. For an older analogue/electronic speedo, the factory adjustment might be little more than a pot that allows a +/-10% tweak. A very modern digital unit might need access to the correct programming software, or simply be a dumb gauge and everything is done in the BCU. (That last won't be the case for an R34 though). But as I said - no-one changes the face of the speedo then recals. You put in the whole speedo. In fact, generally you put in a whole dash.
    • Not with adjusting the odometer but the calibration of the cluster, because the dials are in different positions I believe? a 180kph cluster vs a 320kph cluster.
