how is it only 1 in 10 are suitable? arent the blocks all made the same? or individually cast.....lol but seriously hows that possible?

RE: Oil Squirters

My RB30E block apparently didn't have enough wall thickness to tap in to.

We've got a na r31 rb30 skyline bottom end @ home with piston oil squirters (conrod). Might be one of the rare ones?

There not piston oil squirters.. They squirt a little oil on the load side of the bore. :P

Check the rb30 guide for a pic of piston crown oil squirters.

I need to find the bloke who stated the rb30et blocks have oil squirters... Thread was around here some where.

Yeah I saw that thread too, but they definatly don't - only way is if someone has put them in afterwards.

Yeah, I have an ET block floating around here somewhere actually. :)

But anyway, I actually called up boostworx today, if only I could find some s2 coilpacks or an S1 loom I'd be in business almost. Pretty much taking it down there next week anyway, with the instructions not to call me until its running because I'm sick of seeing it. :)

Got almost everything else bolted up and ready to go, just have to finish off the last min. bits over the weekend (finish relocating the battery and put the steering column back in hehe!).

:lol: I remember saying the same thing to Shaun when dropping my car off to get it finished...

does the RB30 allow for use of the factory oil cooler from the RB25?

if you dont want to run it are there any things you need to do to allow the external coolers sandwich plate to bolt to the block without leaking?

so with the filter direct to the block i does have issues with the thread being too long?

havent pulled apart the std oil cooler to see if it runs its own separate thread for the filter or not.

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
