Hi everyone sorry to ask a silly question but, I’m looking for an rb30 crank bolt however, being in the US it makes it pretty difficult and arp bolts are no where to be found. I do have an arp bolt for my 26 and was wondering if I could use it if I tap the crank. The thing the bothers me is the length of bolt. Do you all know the length difference?

Tap the crank ?!

The thing that should bother you is the fact you want to weaken the crank to use a stronger bolt.

Platinum racing on their US site have an M16 ARP bolt that is compatible with RB30.

I ordered a RB20/RB25/RB30 12 point ARP crank bolt from Platinum Racing. I plan on just using the stock washer. Anyone know the torque valve for the ARP bolt? I know the shop manual is 45nm/330 Ftlbs. With the ARP bolt I feel like the torque value would be less. I searched everywhere here in the states and had to order it from PR. They are very hard to come by here.

Pretty sure that’s the rb26 torque spec, the rb 20/25/30 is a lot lower

I'm confirming this. If my memory is correct, I believe it was somewhere around 240ftlb's.

      RB20DET lean on cold start

      Ah, fair enough. For the IAT, I'm using a legit GM sensor that was used on the car prior to my current build. I'll get another wideband and IAT ordered and follow up when they show up. Thanks for the help.

      You shouldn't need to massively fatten up the mixtures for cold conditions. For one thing - 0°C is not that cold. For another, the Haltech will be using the IAT sensor to tell it how dense the air air, and calculate the correct amount of fuelling. Then the cold start enrichment is added as a % on top of that, so it should scale with the main fuelling. You might also doubt the IAT sensor at this time. You're not using one from an RB26 are you? Using a nice Bosch sensor or similar? Happens. Some wideband units take great pleasure in killing their sensors. Put another wideband in the tailpipe and compare. Or just swap the sensor to a brand new one and see.

      Oh, my misunderstand. When the car was running, it sounded ok, but if I gave it any gas it wanted to die but caught itself afterwards. It's very different from how it was a couple months ago when it was warmer outside. The logs show that the AFRs are better during, what I assume, is warmup enrichment. Because it's cold, and air is more dense, should I work on the enrichment bit?

      Rb20e and RB20DET parts

      By A31Skyline · Posted

      yess of course im not using 2nd hand parts from my spare engine, but the place where i live is hard to find parts for the RB20DET ,but for the RB20E is everywhere including new ones and a lot cheaper ,because for the RB20DET you have to order it overseas to get one and it cost a lot of money 3x the price to be exact. so i ask this topic because if i can use the new ones but for RB20E is it compatible or not. if not im screwed haha, not totally screwed but i have to save a lot of money first before i can begin repairing my engine, thanks for the information before.

      Unless my sensor just died, was only a couple months old, I strongly believe it didn't. How can I test it? I never mentioned it being 20:1+?
