Anyone care to tell me how to get my standard dash tacho working? Im running Autronic SM4, do I just interface the tacho wire from the Autronic to the wire from port 7 on the standard ecu? Surely I cant be the only one to encounter this when not using standard ecu. Cheers!

ACTUALLY I STUFFED UP.

Sorry, I've been hammered on morphine for the last 2 weeks. It has to go OUT 1-2mm to ease the tension a little.

Correcting other post now.

Sounds like your back is still giving you trouble; sorry to hear mate :teehee:

Best to move back to Melb, it's nice and sunny down hear ;)

PS: I also agree with Geoff on the tensioner location. For the new block, we have moved the bolt hole another 2mm across, away from center.

Thanks for backing that up al cheers.

Now ive rung nissan to get a VRS kit for the Rb26 head but nissan want to know if it is before or after the 3/93 with the latter option being cheaper. I havent heard too much talk on here about needing one or the other so im guessing both are the same?

thanks fellas

Just out of curiosity what would be involved in fitting an RB25/30 to a 180sx???

A rough price estimate would be great too if possible...

Thanks.

Front face plenum, lower the mounts as discussed in this "small" thread, move the power steering lines if needed, put a small love bump in the factory bonnet or get a aftermarket one.

Price.. depends how far you go..

I started mine at the start of this thread and I am only just now doing the final touches now. :D

Question about the PowerGrip belt and the Harmonic...

when i fit the belt it sat wonky like the pic below

but with more tension it sits in fine.

Gates state that they supply 2 types of belt, a standard one and the one above which is their "performance" belt.

Not sure if its a case of this belt requires more tension than standard.

Has anyone fitted the 1200 8MGT (says gates on the belt not dayco) and run the car with no issue?

There's previous posts about it but no result.

Thanks

If you look at the 30 head you would notice that the way the valves are arranged they sit on one side for the first three and the other side for the last three. In the end its just cheaper for Nissan to make the one set of pistons with the cutouts there rather than two separate designs.

Anyone??? Surely I cant be the only one who needs this info can I??????

wat parts would you need to make a 30/25 combo around 300rwkw and how much roughly

cheers

Tried searching? or trolling through the RB30 threads? oh.. maybe even look at the RB30 dyno results thread! shock horror!

looking at my rebuild kit today something struck me, why did nissan make the pistons to suit a 4 valve head? By that i mean the piston has the cut outs for 4 valves.

Was nissan keeping an ace up their sleeve :thumbsup:

what pistons are they and price if you dont mind

Anyone??? Surely I cant be the only one who needs this info can I??????

I've had no problems with my standard tacho, using an aftermarket ecu (wolf 3D). Are you sure something else isn't farked up? Have you tried your cluster or ecu on another car?

    • 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
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
