N1 is far more brittle and more prone to failure if you hit the rev limiter, and you just don't need that extra oil pressure which is simply sucking power, as well as too much pressure can strip the white metal out of the bearings so the stock 25/26 pump is more than you need for up to 700hp.

while we are on the subject of oil pumps?

may i ask whats suitable for my set up? Im planning around around 350-400kw and was planning on using a rb25det oil pump as I have a r33 25t at my disposal and was just going to pull the oil pump of that motor or try find another 2nd hand one?

Or would it be better buying a 2nd hand 26 oil pump?

and also what prices would i be looking at roughly if i had to buy a new oil pump for a 25det and 26dett?

anyone elseodne this in cefiro??

i so how id ya go with bonnet shutting?

will prob lower crossmembe while i have the motor out..

I'm building an RB25/30 at the moment to go into my cefiro, I'm not sure if there are going to be bonnet closing issues. In the members rides under the 4door section of this forum a guy has put an RB30 into his laurfiro, I asked if he had issues with clearances and he said no, so hopefully it'll be fine.

As already stated, I have found no differences between the 25 and 26 pump. Flow rate is listed as the same, visually they are the same. Just strip it and check the clearances, assemble with loctit on the screws, do the drive extension on the crank and enjoy.

Not surprisingly the rb20det turbo simply could not keep up. :P

176rwkw on 9psi boost would just not hold from the 12psi straight off the actuator with no boost controller.

Mine likes to overboost, sometimes rolling on hard in the lower gears will make it do it but since I tweaked my ebc it doesn't really do it anymore.

Usually when I wind 4th or 5th out it starts to climb up to 14psi+

Interesting.. Mine was straight off the actuator with no EBC or bleeder. With the bleeder it wouldn't hold boost.

hey all..

just about to start my first motor build, glad i chose the rb25/30 :D

its for my a31 cefiro, as after a recent run at the track cracked 4 rings and a few rooted valves on my rb20.

my plans are a decent condition series 2 bottom end..

with everything converted from my rb20 ie. balancer, power steering etc

using the high low setup for the dayco timing belt

genuine replacement rings and a hone

check bottom end bearings and such.

hoping for r32 rb25de head..

machined head

aftermarket valve springs

genuine head gasket

possible rb25det oil pump?? (crank collar needed??)

tomei oil restrictors

they are parts required.

on my rb20 i was running

hks cast low mount manifold

hks 38mm external gate

hks to4e turbo

3inch turbo to tip no cat no mufflers

isc front mount cooler

shitty bleed valve

walbro fuel pump.

plan to use all them on the rb25/30

whats everyone think of that setup??

im not after huge power, happy as larry with anything near 200rwkw

will be using stock afm, injectors and ecu for run in period..

then upgrade injectors and afm and get ecu remap...

what power is accheivable??

this thread is the bomb..

took me about 4 days to read all 335 pages but its so worth it :D

cheers guys

Heres a link to my rb30 cefiro project. Some of the engine mods are quite similar to what you are proposing.

Somehow i managed to not notice that there is a hole behind the water pump (sort of where the thermostat sits) that has nothing in it. does the opening need to be used when its put into an R33 GTS-T (i noticed on an R32 RB20 it has what looks like a heater hose coming out of it?) or should i just fit a welsh plug?

post-32350-1217761027_thumb.jpg

That usually has a pressed in steel hose with a Y sort of shape for the heater return and I think the throttle water heater return or something. I guess you could live without it if you had to. When the water gets hot enough the thermostat opens and flows to the radiator top tank.

If you were to bypass all the throttle and inlet manifold water cooling from that Y piece, you can run it straight to the turbo water feed as that is where it normally ends up after all the rest of it.

Good idea. BTW Michael, I have an intake as you are looking for in your sig, just no IAC block, but I barely use the one on the 26/30. Only really idle control and a 25 one could be adapted I think.

hey does any1 have a .doc file or anything in regards to how to strengthen the standard rods? Am looking at around 500hp for my 30det have forged pistons but planning on strengthening the standard rods as i hav been told that they are tough

im not planning on reving more then 7000rpm maybe 6000 6500 max is it suitable? so you reckon just to whack the std rod in, i have been told about penning? kind of just touched on and also sanding the rods? Yes no? been told its a cheap effective way

    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
    • So, a bit of a side trip, but one that might be interesting for people with JDM cars and japanese head units. I know @Pac previously posted about a carplay/android auto adapter he installed which used the AUX input, and @V35_Paul put in one of the Tesla style units that replace both screens. The option I went with was a Lsait LLT-YF-VER5.87_2 (https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8GB-Android-Multimedia-Interface-for_1601187633672.html). Price was $1,150 for a single unit although they are much cheaper if you are willing to buy 2....$857ea. Make you you get the version 2 not version 1, it is faster and has a better UI - this is the manufacturer listing: http://www.lsailt.com/product/348.html. BTW if you've never bought from Alibaba before, don't be concerned....these guys can't stay in business unless they are responsive, ship fast etc, they were excellent (probably faster shipping than most local places) So, this was my task for a lazy Sat afternoon....looks complex but was all done in a few hours (it probably helps that I had some of it apart before so it was a bit familiar). I also decided to add a HD USB drive recorded at the same time and the unit also supports an aftermarket reverse cam (if you don't want to retain factory) and also AV in and HDMI out It looks much worse than it is, in fact in was genuinely all plug and play (no custom wiring at all). This video was pretty good (skipped a few steps), unfortunately they are an Aussie seller but no longer sell this unit (I guess Carplay/AA adapters are easier to install and much cheaper) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5hJfYOB8Dg
    • That still isn't a lot to go on. I don't have a Y50 Fuga Head Unit wiring diagram. I can say that a lot of nissans of that age shared head unit plugs, so if you are in Australia something like this would probably help: https://aerpro.com/app091# You plug that into the car loom, then either plug the head unit ISO into that (if it has ISO), or you buy and ISO adapter harness that you wire in. Bit of stuffing around, but once you have ISO its easy to change things in future.
    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.
