    Oil Control In Rb's For Circuit Drag Or Drift

    Nope dip stick won't do it. Read the thread (the last half should do you).

    Yeah i have read from about page 50 onwards and understand what I am proposing isn't the best setup, however i dont plan on pulling the engine just to fit oil restrictors and sump vents. When I eventually do pull the engine, it will be for more than just oil control mods.  Extended and baffled sump, proper catch can setup etc will be done then.

    For now however, I just want to setup something basic, that along with overfilling sump, limiting revs and limiting consecutive hot laps at the track, can prolong the engines life as much as possible.

    So dipstick just a waste of time?

    I assume fitting an accusump would mean fitting it to the sump, so would therefore be an engine out job to fit. 

    How would a setup like this work?

    Cam baffle plates
    oil/air separator
    catch can, with vent to atmo and a drain/vent for the sump, through the dipstick? like this one

    Looking at doing some track work with my 32r. Figured it would be important to do something about the oil issue in the rb’s while im swapping the turbos. It will be a standard motor with cam gears and arp head studs. Single turbo RB26 with about 300-350kw on e85. I will be limiting revs to 7k and only doing minimal hot laps at a time.

    After reading through the thread and the hi octane article, this seems to be the ideal setup

    • ·         Extended sump with baffle
    •      Oil restrictors
    •      Oil drain enlarging with chamfered holes
    •      Cam cover baffle plates
    •      Oil/air separator
    •      Well setup catch can

    The first three on the list are engine out jobs from what I understand.  I want to try avoid pulling the engine, so I thought overfilling the stock sump up to the hump on the dipstick and running an accusump would be good enough alternatives. Will also run oil cooler for temps and oil filter relocate for easy swaps. 

    Looking at running an oil/air separator from the cam covers, which feeds to the catch can. The setup above looked like the best. Couple of questions in regards to this. Some have mentioned they don’t run sump breathers with e85. Is this just a myth or whatt? Also, would sump breathers (#3, #4) be able to be fitted to the sump with the engine still in the car?

    Would this setup be pretty decent, or just a waste of time and money?

    1 - twin 2.25 pipes will be restrictive in the exhaust

    2 - stock airbox is usually good for -7 power, however that bloke with the z tune rep R34 claimed to have made some decent gains going to pods.

    4 - Nothing wrong with the good old power fc. There are better ecu's around these days though. Have to factor in costs of afms too.

    6 - stock intercooler fine

    8 - 10w60 castrol edge seems to be a popular choice

     

    can make 350+kw on e85 with flowing exhausts
