Hi all

I got the spigot bush sittin infront of me and was wondering if any of the RB30 spigot bushes will be the same as the RB25 cause repco dont know sh!t about imports other than, ohh ill call gary rogers (nissan i think :))

So is there an RB30 one you can get that will fit?

Cheers all and thanks in advance

im pretty sure all nissan spigot bushes are the same....if youve got the gearbox out just take the rb30 one and put it over your input shaft if it feels allright and fits in the crank fine then your good, or you can measure it.....but i am pretty sure they are the same....also ive also found something funny.....Genuine nissan spigot bush is $17, if your in Adelaide, Adelaide clutch services sell them for $3

sorry man i am getting confused now....now there is no such engine as the rb30det only the rb30et, and there is no rb30de only the rb30e......ok so ive just verified all nissan spigot bushes come up as the same part number, so just tell him you need a spigot bush for a r31 skyline with and rb30e.......

The RB30 spigot bushes for both the manual versions (different gearbox) are the same. the input shafts on the RB30 manual boxes and the R33 box are identical. so the ID of the bush is fine, i would suggest that the OD is also the same on all RB series boxes.

buy one, see if it fits. if it doesn't, take it back.

RB20DET auto and manual ones are different, i got mine directly from Nissan, didn't cost a great deal.

Getting the old one out was a real bastard job though, thankfully RowdyR32 did it for me, like the majority of the work on my engine swap! :mellow:

If you haven't got it out already and have dramas I got given plenty of good help/suggestions here: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...showtopic=55955

Why do people have such trouble with these??

A friend, (Cubes), packed the spiggot with grease and used a 14mm socket (i think) to pop the old one out in like 30 seconds...

Cubes and myself (lol...well mainly cubes..) changed the Rb30e auto one for a rb30e manual one in my car (rb30det) It has the r33 manual box running so as others say they are interchangable...

    • Factory LSD is supposedly a 2 way with a very conservative cam. If you've already tried adding friction modifier to the diff oil and it still locks up too much for your liking you might want to adjust the ramp rate on the cam to be more like OEM instead of reducing initial torque even further. People claim the 8 kgf-m disc kit for the OEM LSD is still very streetable but I've never been able to compare everything side by side on my own.
    • Oh man, at least it sounds they've accepted they stuffed up and not put it back on you...could see some confusion if they asked if it had a hardtop or not, and you've answered truthfully but maybe not answering their real question which is what roof did it have from the factory! Glad your keeping it N/A 2.5
    • Nah, I much prefer colour matched Talking about colour matching stuff, the new/used boot lid turned up, all painted up perfectly......aaaannnndddd, it's for a power retractable hard top, not a soft top.....LOL They are now sending a boot to fit a soft top.....,  whilst frustrating, life is like that sometimes, sometimes you just need to dodge, duck, dip, dive and, ummm, dodge.
    • You would need to paint your hardtop again though
    • I have an old R32 in the shed that hasnt moved much in the last few years and probably should see the light of day. At one point I had a Nismo 1.5 centre put in the rear diff. It is a clunky nightmare POS of a thing on a good day. To make it less painful the initial torque setting has been put on the minimum (7.0kgf-m, mid is 9.5, high is 14) and the oil changed out to something more slippery. But it is still awful and ruins the vibe of the thing. So my questions are: Given I have the original parts sitting in a box somewhere would it be better to rebuild the thing again, reverting to more purity? Is there a standard kit or do you just go and replace the friction plates etc and shim it the way you like it. How much initial torque does the standard R32 rear diff have? Or does the Nismo disc kit offer a better solution - the caveat being the initial torque for both options appears to be higher than the clunky 1.5 way. There appear to be two Nismo disc kits: 3843S-RS520 for 8kgf-m. 3843S-RS521 for 12kgf-m. Or is the easiest solution to reshim the Nismo diff to make it looser?
