Cefiro crossmember


Recommended Posts

squizz is correct. but you can also use the cefiro x member. both pretty much the same.

bigbignacha, the rb30 motor is to tall for the hood to close on a 240sx, thus meaning you'll need a custom hood with a ugly hump in the middle so it can close.

u can allso elongate the engine mounts as far as they can go the ones that bolt 2 the block custom inlet mainifold twin cam head and the rb30 should fit .The r32 and cefiro crossmembers r the same and yes they fit straight in to a s13 i have done enough rb conversion 15 in fact so i know how do them .Oh by the way the rb30 block is 1 inch taller than a rb20 or 25

hey,

i am doing the conversion, and just got a few quick questions.

- what radiator did you use?

- when you elongate the mounts do you mean lower them or get them custom made?

- what gearbox mount and exmember did you use for the r33 5 speed.

i am having problems with bonnet shutting, and i am using r32 xmemba and r32 engine mounts.

thanks for your time

depends on what you are after the only reason i would use the cefiro crossmember is if you want to keep the 4 stud slivia brakes but with an rb30 you will need something alot more serrious than standard slivia brakes

as for the crossmember try New Zealand there was a lot of wreaks last time i was there if you have problems finding one contact me and i will see what i can find

in any case it looks like a great project keep us in touch to see if it works

my project is an s13 240sx in the states. i have converted the hatch to a pickup bed just to be a little i know that it sounds ugly but it is starin to look good. As far as the motor i am just starting, i have the rb25det cylinder head and i am going to order an rb30 from a shop in adelaidef for 1500 plus 700 shipping to the east coast in the states. just like everyone else in the states i dont know much about the rb30 except for the fact that it is an extremely rare conversion here but now the shape of my car is rare so i guess it will work. also i was going to do an r33 headlight conversion but i think i want to go with an r32 conversion so if anyone wants r33 headlights in exchange for r32 pm me :P

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
