This gets asked a lot, so here they are according to Nissan workshop manuals:

Rb26:

Balancer Bolt - 446-466nm (ouch!)

Flywheel Bolt - 124-152nm

Clutch Bolt - 34-44nm

Rb25:

Balancer Bolt - 142-152

Flywheel Bolt - 124-152nm

Clutch Bolt - 34-44nm

good luck getting 450nm on the RB26 bolt without a tension wrench designed to do wheel studs up on a Euclid 170T dump truck.

I do them 150nm then get a pipe over it for another 1/4 of a turn....never had one come loose.

what about putting some lock tight ova the thred? is this recomended i dont really want a pully popping out to say hello threw my bonnet at 8000rpm

DO NOT put Loctite or any other anerobic compound on them. ARP moly lube only please.

Hey mate,

Its 30mm for a RB26..

Cheers,

Thanks Johno.

You're pretty safe if u torque up the bolt to the above specs, loctite won't hurt, more of an assurance, but sucks to be the next person to rip the bolt out...haha.

(in saying that, some people are quite religious about using loctite)

just looking over this ... the balance bolt should be replaced with every clutch . i've looked at the threads on 25's and 26's and came to the conclusion it was a stretch bolt because it thins out close to head of the bolt. its just good practice . get it the right way first .

+1 I did it that way too before I put my engine in.

Pole was 4 meters long=sweet!

Anyone know the thread size for RB Flywheel bolts? Bought my RB20 for $20 and it has been sitting outside for the last 5 years so has some rust/filth in the threads in the crank. Looking go buy a tap to clean them up. Cheers.

    • 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.
