Rb30/26 In R32 Gtr, Anything I Should Look Out For

[Skyline95]

Hey guys,

il be picking up my rebuild RB26 engine which has had the Rb30 conversion done for the 4wd sump etc, anything i need to do or look out for since the RB30 is taller? I have kept all the brackets, pulleys, alternator, air con pump etc from the RB26.

Any help would be appreciated

Anything that bolts up to the head will be 38mm higher.

Anything bolted up to the block will be in the same location.

I.e alt. aircon etc.

cubes, yeah i assumed all that. anything thats needs to be modifies ie water/oil lines, engine mounts etc

With the single turbo the existing water lines are attached to the head so they line up with the turbo's that are also attached to the head fine.

The oil feed line requirder a little fiddling as it had to be stretched, its all fine though as there was plenty on line to play with. The turbo oil return required a new rubber hose that was a little longer, I assume the same with the gtr.

Thats pretty much it suprisingly. My turbo plumbing actually lines up better now than it did prior.
