Hey there,

Build a rb25de + rb30e, Aftermarket set of cam shafts, And been told to use flat top pistons for the higher comp.

But after having a look at stock rb30e pistons, there are ingraves for the valves to 'sit' Wouldnt flat tops + Aggressive cams mean theres a good chance something is going to kiss each other... hard.?

I know there is a thread with 290 pages of rb30de convo goodness but bloody hell!

*Injector upgrade? Its going to be NA, will the rb25de 'jectors be enough?

*Anymore pointers would be great!

have a look at this..

I heard of people using both sets of pistons..

Injectors should be ok.. unless your wianting to push more than say 130kw.. then RB25DET is the go.. cheap alutnatives.. same with a fuel pump..

Where are you getting ur cams from?.. from a turbo? NA's get more power from the overlap in the cams.. so if your using turbo cams you may not be extracting the full potential out of the engine..

Also.. the CR your running will also determin if things go bump in your engine..

max stock regrounded cams is on the link above too..

Hope it helps mate

    • I'm actually not sure - I think it was "Stealth Performance" (It really is near impossible to find a FEMALE 1/8BSPT to 1/8NPT male at ALL) but having the thing leveraged on a 90 degree angle on a small aluminium fitting is not too smart. Also in not too smart, I've drilled out the center of the broken fitting so there's maybe 0.00001mm of thread to bite into, so yeah. I may have to get it drilled/tapped/plugged entirely. Given I could conceivably tap a thread/adapter/pressure line in any point in the oil system I suppose it's feasible to run a line to the Nissan Sensor to keep the dash working. Do these exist in AN fittings and the like? Like an AN fitting that has a NPT (or other?) thread as well for putting a sensor in?
    • I would agree.  There will be an amount of boost you could run safely with an otherwise factory system, but it would be low enough to not be worth the cost.  And if you are reliving your 20s, you know a 'little bit' was never enough. Personally, if I didn't want to spend the money, then stick with NA bolt-ons, and maybe a tune.
    • Fuark, at least the motor survived. What brand was the fitting that snapped?
    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
