ok well im taking my bottem end apart tommorow and well do i need the crank collar fixed or not?

yes i own a r32 motor and the snout is short!! but what if i dont fix it? i know what happens if it does fail but, i going to be using the motor for drifting so is this need 100% or not! i know better safe then sorry but some people tell me you dont have to get it fixed! can i still rev high with out it? and to what rpm?

are you going to pull the engine appart? you will need to take the crank out and get a machine shop to machine the snout down so the collar will fit.

For drifting its a must. hitting rev limiter all the time will jerk the pump and eventually crack it and stuff your engine (i have yet to see it though)

Theres a person on here who had this exact thing happen. Rev limiter launches, and all the shock loading shattered the N1 oil pump drive. (they are made stronger, and more brittle, theres a fair bit of talk about it on this forum)

As for limiter action on a stock oil pump... ;) I think its definitely worth extra coin.

i decided to use the stock nissan rb25 oil pump on my rb30det with the crank collar mod and have had no issues at all!

    • That's awesome. Fully serviced/full log book history for one of those cars is super rare from what I know. With JDM's like Skyline's, Supras, are quite hard to find one with full log book history. S15's seem to be somewhat of an exception, at least the spec s australian delivered models.
    • Hey all, It's been a bit since I have been able to update.  I pulled the fuel pump, first off it was a "universal" pump and the strainer was very clogged, and it was folded over on itself.  I replaced the fuel pump and all is well....  No more stalling.
    • That's convinced me I'll bump up the G30-660 to 770   Any idea if the difference in boost pressure? Cheers

    • Hey guys so turns out this project is going to be much bigger than I thought haha but I've done some my homework and have done a few panels on my car, but one part I can just not visualise is this. If I do a spot repair and I put filler in a dent for example and sand outside of the repair with 320 grit lets say so the primer can stick as I will only put primer on that repair and the surrounding area and then repaint the whole panel. Don't I need to make sure that I don't put primer on the old clear coat? I keep seeing YouTube videos where people have new paint and primer land on the old clearcoat that isn't even dulled down, it's still shiny. I thought putting paint on clearcoat or primer on clearcoat is a bad idea because it won't stick. So in this scenario it's a bit different to mine but imagine someone doing a spot repair and only painting that small section of repair but the new paint is landing on the old clearcoat. What am I missing?
