  1. Hey guys selling my rb25 5 speed smooth as to drive no crunches and good synchros. never ran more than 350hp through it and always had genuine fluids. selling due to auto conversion to setup for drag chasing 1200 ono please email at [email protected] or call on 0408764257. im located in camira qld 4300
  2. i want the compression to be above 8-1 with the rb25 head i know spool do a 9-1 piston for the rb30det but they are away for another few weeks so cant contact them
  3. Hey guys i know this has probably been asked before but couldnt really find anything i am building a rb25/30 and am currently looking at a set of forgies to suit a rb30et with an advertised compression ratio of 8.5-1 when used with single cam head. will this bring my compression down to about 8.2-1 with the rb25det head? here is some specs on the pistons Piston Type Forged Ring Set Part # C1686 Compression Height 32mm/1.261in Sizes Available: STD, 050, 1.00 Piston Crown Capacity 4.5cc Ring 1 Ring 2 Ring 3 Dish Type Steel Nitrided Barrel plain Reverse torsional taper face scraper Duraflex 3 piece oil ring Bowl Depth 0mm/in Width 1.5mm/0.059in 1.5mm/0.059in 2.8mm/0..11in Compression Ratio 8.5 Depth 3.4mm/0.133in 3.8mm/0.149in 3.9mm/0.153in Piston Mass 322 grams (0.50) Pin Mass 84 grams Pin Diameter 21mm/0.827in Pin Locking Device Spiral Lock Clearance 0.12mm/.005in Skirt Coated No
  4. motor has been in the car and driving for a year now with the 20 box. the gtr box will fit the tunnel as long as the transfer has been removed from it which is what i am trying to find info on
  5. skillset required? hahah good one mate. i am a qualified fitter and turner and built a few cars now... the point of asking for links is so i can find out what parts i may need beside the gtr box. i Havent bought a box and wont till i find out if it will be cost effective to purchase one over a 25 box.
  6. i know it can be done but does anyone have any links or tips on doing it? it is going into a bmw with a built rb20 in it. i cant justify the 1500 for a 25 box when i can get a gtr box for 600 and modify it myself. any help appreciated
  7. well the engine is going in for a bottom end rebuild. the sump holds around 10 litres as its custom to suit the conversion and with 3 litres in the sump the pickup is still under the oil. goona make a new custom pickup using speed flow fittings so there is no chance of a leak from it anymore. i think the pick up is what caused it in hte first place
  8. anyone got an ideas i dont wanna pull the motor out just yet
  9. its a z30 filter. there is oil flow through the cooler cause i can feel it getting warm. the lines enter the cooler from the bottom is that a problem?
  10. no there is no thermostat on the relocation kit. i'm pretty sure the lines are correct. is the centre line from the plate on the block the pressure line? asin the one that would normally flow into the centre of the filter
  11. as in on the plate that replaces the filter for the relocation kit?
  12. hey guys i have an rb20det in a bmw. the problem i'm having is that i have a lowish oil pressure. I am running a remote oil cooler and filter. has anyone had experience with this dropping oil presure? at idle its sits at around 10psi mesured from the remote filter and on revs it reachs 20 psi. any help appreciated
  13. ok kool does anyoen know of any good sites besides this one to tray and find a second hand hi flow
  14. the other question is do most low mounts keep the turbo in the exact same position as a standard manifold so i wont have to redo the exhaust and dump pipe and intake?
