Hey guys,

Over the last 8 months or so i've been slowly putting together a twincam rb30 setup for my R31. Now this was all going well and was about 95% complete, untill i managed to crash my car on sunday (i was in a captain planet suit when it happened actually...) It was a relativly minimal accident, no one was hurt, except my car, a r33 skyline and a vz commodore. Now i have to sell off some parts that i was going to use, so i can pay for the repairs to their cars. (lesson: always get 3rd party property insurance!)

anyways, heres the prices, if you dont wanna pay what i want for them then fine, ill just keep em, but considering they are in exactly the same condition as when i bought them off other forum users, i rekon what i payed, or a little less (for SOME items) is fair. I also have reciepts for everything.

- GTS2 front suspension setup (yes, with the bilstien shocks!) and r33 calipers $1000 ($800 without 4 pot callipers)

- A Bosh 044 fuel pump, $SOLD - BRAND NEW IN BOX

- And a Sard rising rate fuel pressure reg $180 - BRAND NEW IN BOX

- A alloy oil catch can $75 (custom made by ISLEEP) - BRAND NEW

- A alloy surge tank $SOLD (custom made by ISLEEP) - BRAND NEW

- Bare RB25DET intake plenum - with cracked corner piece, repairable $20

- Standard RB25DET exhaust manifold - $100

- 48mm External HKS style wastegate - $200 (i paid 330)

- GT35r (XR6t specs) BRAND NEW - $1650

- 740cc NISMO fuel injectors - $840 BRAND NEW IN BOX

- RB25 ignightor pack (connect the coils to the engine loom) - $100 (i paid 150 for it from this forum about 5 months ago)

- POWER FC for rb25det - $SOLD BRAND NEW IN BOX

- RB25DET complete engine loom - $200

- Q45 AFM, with plug and bottom half of air box. - $150

- Pager alarm system - $100 BRAND NEW IN BOX

- 600x300x76 intercooler, no-name brand but still looks good quality - $100 BRAND NEW IN BOX

- BOSH EL falcon coil packs, good for wasted spark setup (eg, power fcs) - $100 BRAND NEW IN BOX

- RB30DET engine complete, minus 2 turbo suport lines. -just tell me what you want to come with it and we can work out a price. OFFERS? (if you live in sydney i'd love to help you get this running, just as long as i get to go for a drive in it)

I also have a series 1 TI in storm grey that im parting out. Theres is only damage to the front end of it, and it has a manual conversion that i will be selling complete - the box is from a r32gtst. It also has lovels springs and shocks all round, afterburner tail lights, all electric options, and those cool blue velour door cards. -I'll have to work out prices for these from other sales on the forums, but feel free to PM me your offers.

Im located in the eastern subs of suyney, and my number is 0420 316 326

thanks guys

-Tom

that turbo looks like a GT30R rather than a GT35R (GT3540R).... only because its using a .50 comp housing rather than a .60 or .70, but i may be wrong....

can you provide some more specs about the turbo and where you brough it from, thanks

xr6's run the 0.5 a/r compressor standard

Is the bottom end utilising standard rb30 pistons, rods etc

If so RB30E or RB30ET (need to know for compression difference)

What kind of head, 25DE, 25DET, 26DET?

What other components, Headgasket, type and thickness etc.

Any details you have would be appreciated along with a ballpark figure :(

About the RB30...

It has a stgandard rb30e bottom end, It has a genuine nissan headgasket, it has a rb25det head. I will accept offers of 1100+

About the turbo...

It is the same CHRA (center housing, wheels etc), the exhaust housing is exactly the same as the Garrett 1.06 version (except it has "Ford" cast into it), and the compressor housing is a .50 sized one (smaller than the .70 version). The parts are all made by Garrett, so there is no problems with quality control or mismatched bits.

I wouldn't say it is rated at less horsepower, the XR6 guys seem to be pulling out rediculous power figures for a "stock" turbo. The only difference I can see is with the smaller compressor cover the compressor map would be more efficient at lower boost levels (less than 25psi) than the .70 cover.

thanks for the interest

is the RB30 put together?

It would have to be shipped if I wanted it..

What have you done to it to improve it

ie:

Is the VVT setup

Whats the static compression

Have you moved all the idler tensioners

etc

Let me know

Thanks

the engine is 90% together, there are no spark plugs and the intake plenum is curently off the head as i was going to put my 740cc's in, but i can put it back on mefore it is sold. (740cc injectors are not included stock injectors are still in)

The VVT is all setup.

The compression ratio is 8.5:1, just like all stok rb30e blocks with rb25 heads

The timing belt tenisoners have been setup, there is a timing belt on it already.

-I can get you guys some high res pics of it after the weekend, id get them earlier but i have no car and the gear is at my pop's garage.

thanks

sounds good.

Just a few more q's.

1. Did you "refresh" the engine

2. What was done in the "refresh" if it was done?

3. Will you ship it, and how much do you think it would be?

hey tom,

i'll still be coming down this saturday can't wait :) just a quick question what manifold where you going to use with the turbo? and have you still got the turbo and wastegate? If you still got it in a month or two i'll probably grab it off ya give the motor the turbo it was always meant to have :)

    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
    • I forgot about my shiny new plates!
    • Well, apparently they do fit, however this wont be a problem if not because the car will be stationary while i do the suspension work. I was just going to use the 16's to roll the old girl around if I needed to. I just need to get the E90 back on the road first. Yes! I'm a believer! 🙌 So, I contacted them because the site kinda sucks and I was really confused about what I'd need. They put together a package for me and because I was spraying all the seat surfaces and not doing spot fixes I decided not to send them a headrest to colour match, I just used their colour on file (and it was spot on).  I got some heavy duty cleaner, 1L of colour, a small bottle of dye hardener and a small bottle of the dye top coat. I also got a spray gun as I needed a larger nozzle than the gun I had and it was only $40 extra. From memory the total was ~$450 ish. Its not cheap but the result is awesome. They did add repair bits and pieces to the quote originally and the cost came down significantly when I said I didn't need any repair products. I did it over a weekend. The only issues I had were my own; I forgot to mix the hardener into the dye two coats but I had enough dye for 2 more coats with the hardener. I also just used up all the dye because why not and i rushed the last coat which gave me some runs. Thankfully the runs are under the headrests. The gun pattern wasn't great, very round and would have been better if it was a line. It made it a little tricky to get consistent coverage and I think having done the extra coats probably helped conceal any coverage issues. I contacted them again a few months later so I could get our X5 done (who the f**k thought white leather was a good idea for a family car?!) and they said they had some training to do in Sydney and I could get a reduced rate on the leather fix in the X5 if I let them demo their product on our car. So I agreed. When I took Bec in the E39 to pick it up, I showed them the job I'd done in my car and they were all (students included) really impressed. Note that they said the runs I created could be fixed easily at the time with a brush or an air compressor gun. So, now with the two cars done I can absolutely recommend Colourlock.  I'll take pics of both interiors and create a new thread.
    • Power is fed to the ECU when the ignition switch is switched to IGN, at terminal 58. That same wire also connects to the ECCS relay to provide both the coil power and the contact side. When the ECU sees power at 58 it switches 16 to earth, which pulls the ECCS relay on, which feeds main power into the ECU and also to a bunch of other things. None of this is directly involved in the fuel pump - it just has to happen first. The ECU will pull terminal 18 to earth when it wants the fuel pump to run. This allows the fuel pump relay to pull in, which switches power on into the rest of the fuel pump control equipment. The fuel pump control regulator is controlled from terminal 104 on the ECU and is switched high or low depending on whether the ECU thinks the pump needs to run high or low. (I don't know which way around that is, and it really doesn't matter right now). The fuel pump control reg is really just a resistor that controls how the power through the pump goes to earth. Either straight to earth, or via the resistor. This part doesn't matter much to us today. The power to the fuel pump relay comes from one of the switched wires from the IGN switch and fusebox that is not shown off to the left of this page. That power runs the fuel pump relay coil and a number of other engine peripherals. Those peripherals don't really matter. All that matters is that there should be power available at the relay when the key is in the right position. At least - I think it's switched. If it's not switched, then power will be there all the time. Either way, if you don't have power there when you need it (ie, key on) then it won't work. The input-output switching side of the relay gains its power from a line similar (but not the same as) the one that feeds the ECU. SO I presume that is switched. Again, if there is not power there when you need it, then you have to look upstream. And... the upshot of all that? There is no "ground" at the fuel pump relay. Where you say: and say that pin 1 Black/Pink is ground, that is not true. The ECU trigger is AF73, is black/pink, and is the "ground". When the ECU says it is. The Blue/White wire is the "constant" 12V to power the relay's coil. And when I say "constant", I mean it may well only be on when the key is on. As I said above. So, when the ECU says not to be running the pump (which is any time after about 3s of switching on, with no crank signal or engine speed yet), then you should see 12V at both 1 and 2. Because the 12V will be all the way up to the ECU terminal 18, waiting to be switched to ground. When the ECU switches the fuel pump on, then AF73 should go to ~0V, having been switched to ground and the voltage drop now occurring over the relay coil. 3 & 5 are easy. 5 is the other "constant" 12V, that may or may not be constant but will very much want to be there when the key is on. Same as above. 3 goes to the pump. There should never be 12V visible at 3 unless the relay is pulled in. As to where the immobiliser might have been spliced into all this.... It will either have to be on wire AF70 or AF71, whichever is most accessible near the alarm. Given that all those wires run from the engine bay fusebox or the ECU, via the driver's area to the rear of the car, it could really be either. AF70 will be the same colour from the appropriate fuse all the way to the pump. If it has been cut and is dangling, you should be able to see that  in that area somewhere. Same with AF71.   You really should be able to force the pump to run. Just jump 12V onto AF72 and it should go. That will prove that the pump itself is willing to go along with you when you sort out the upstream. You really should be able to force the fuel pump relay on. Just short AF73 to earth when the key is on. If the pump runs, then the relay is fine, and all the power up to both inputs on the relay is fine. If it doesn't run (and given that you checked the relay itself actually works) then one or both of AF70 and AF71 are not bringing power to the game.
