Hey all, new here.

I am building a RB30 twin turbo engine for my R31, I am upgrading the oil pump, but im unsure what fits straight in and what doesn't

I am under the impression that the RB26 oil pump requires a collar to be added to the front of the RB30 crank?

any advice/thoughts appreciated.

RB30E and RB30ET oil pumps also fit.

:blush: cheers :D

RB30E and RB30ET oil pumps also fit.

ORLY?????

who would have thought.

I would have used the RB30E pump, but everyone is saying that it'd be silly to do that, as the engine would probably run out of oil, the pump would have to support 2 turbos as well, so its upgrade time.

MAG86, i didn't think it was too bad, I was going to go with Suck_my_fat_wang, but it thought that was just a little over the top :wave:

the best usernames are allways the ones that cause a littel controversy!

I could have allways gone with Jihad_in_my_pants, Im sure you wouldn't have any probs with me slaggin of on a religion that isnt yours? (big assumption there, sorry if im way off)

anyways, thanks for the info fellas, much appreciated.

so how did you go with that on the RB30 crank, did it need the collar fitted?

I haven't fitted a collar yet, and im sorta thinking i wont need to, as the engine isn't being built for revs.

to my understanding, thats the main thing that kills them?

Im running a 32 gtr pump on mine, havent had a problem, went straight on, way cheaper then the rb30et ones, and i wouldnt even bother with the standard rb30e pump, looks the same but flows different. I have been told that all rb series blocks share the same water and oil pumps, but someone might have to verify that..

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
