Im currently taking my adapter plate and modifying it to include the girdle/main caps (CAD Designed, CNC/Laser cut). Should be done in about ~2weeks.

If you want more info drop me a PM and we can go from there :)

hey guys who makes the best rb30 gtr r32 sump adaptor?

engine will make about 800hp so i need the best for my aplication thanx in advance

pro engines in ACT. proven to be good. on the forum as proengines or pro engines.

Im pretty sure ive got the pro engines one......can someone post up the price? Then ill know :O

I think they are $650 posted for the plate, or $990 with the oil pickup, all the fasteners and the guide for "notching" the block, they are the only one so far that noone has complained about fitment problems. They can be bought off their store on ebay, or through www.proengines.com

Cheers :)

rang nizpro today to see if they would sell one of theirs.said no .they are a pack of rude cops very unhelpful

same with rips he said id have to buy a whole bottom end.thanx but no thanx

Do you blame them?

I mean, honestly, they've done the hardwork in designing them as part of a 'package' to sell to customers.

Its unlikely someone paying for a full motor will mass produce parts/copy, but someone just wanting one... its highly like its going to be copied.

That said, if proengines are selling them, then why ring anywhere else?

With a 800hp setup, dont you know a fabricator or decent quality?

ash, you cant really copy this type of item without pretty much designing it from scratch and making a fair few templates in the process urself. it took me 4 trial plates and many many hours in the shed measuring and drafting up just for the adapter plate, as every hole has to be pretty much perfectly aligned. I'm now 1/4 way through the first run for the main caps/adapter plate, and this one has to be even more accurate.

Yes there's alot of man hours gone into a thing like this, but at the end of the day, if there's people wanting them, why would workshops turn them away if they know they are going to make profit on them.

But anyhoo, i should have my first girdle back from the machinist in the next 2 weeks.

Shane your plate inc girdle bearing caps seems to be the only one so far that I am aware of.

I have often wondered why no-one has done it that way as the strength and stability of such a design has to be the way to go.

The cost obviously will be more so let us know how much and exactly how the plate and caps will be integrated.

The problem is going to be getting it to fit perfectly, as to accomodate the main bearings and the way they are notched into the caps. It can be done, but a few trial copies are gonna have to be made.

Another thing is, you'll have to source some longer ARP main studs, but that's no biggie.

I know that RIPS sold one to an aussie customer who then turned around and copied the design claiming them as his own (it wasn't pro engines). He sold the copy to a guy in the UK and it was a piece of crap. Rob found out about it and was none to happy.

I don't know what the big drama is. pro-engines make them. by all accounts they are a top product that greg designed and made after seeing growing need for a kit so people could build their own RB30s for GTR. call him up, send him some money and you are under way :w00t:

    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
