I han't done a Neo head.. but I'm guessing that Nissan didn't stray too far from what they already know works.

Please take another pic, up close and front on, just like mine so everybody can see what your looking at.

Top work on the mod. Im about to embark on this procees, Where did u get the replacement plug, Did u press it back on or hammer

Thanks

I have had a look at the neo head and it has a bearing feed running off the head gallery and a seperate feed just for the vvt.

You wont be able to pull the plug out and drill it like the r33 head.

Im appears the vvt solenoid blocks the oil pressure when the vvt is off and when engaged, it pressurises the vvt solenoid. when disengaged the oil pressure bleeds back through the solenoid instead of the constant loss

just doing the conversion atm.. looking at drilling through the bucket gallery into the vct gallery between the first cam journal and first lifter bore then plugging the entry point back up.. anyone know what the original neo oil restrictor size is for the vct.. I only have a head thanks

Tried this mod whilst doing my rb30 conversion, worked great, was very simple and tidy

drilled out the oil returns in the head and ran a rear head oil drain kit but decided not to restrict or block the oil feeds in the block, but i seem to be losing a hell of a lot of oil still from the breathers. . . i was wondering if anyone has considered drilling out the 1.5mm oil in the brass plug to 2mm, in theory i would think the head would still have enough pressure to engage the vct but also drain more oil when the vct is off in the higher revv range

has anyone tried this? or think it may work?

Cheers

going to be doing this shortly for my 30det. theres plenty of info around on restrictor sizes with or without vct, but all the info for vct heads include an external oil feed. what size restrictors would work best with this internal feed on a street driven 30det? i ordered a couple off the net and got sent 1x 1.5mm and 1 blocked, worried it might not be enough oil for normal driving?

I'm building a 25/30 combo but don't want to use the VCT, is it better to have the solenoid off or on?

I'll be doing this mod but only to supply the front cam tunnel with oil.

Has anyone got any info on not using the VCT?

cheers shaun.

good point. Whatever was there - I'd assume the RB30 restrictors then.

Wonder what size they are?

2mm i think. factory 25 are 1.5mm i think.

i ended going with 2 ~1.6mm feeds, works out a little less than factory 25 by my calculations which should stop any blow by without starving the head

Johnno let us know how your engine goes, i think the rb30s have two 1.8mm standard, with leaving them standard i was still getting way too much oil to the head.. a bit of spirited driving would result in quite alot of oil coming out of the breathers... i think im going to 2x1.3mm this time

Forgot to mention, thats with a rear head oil drain and all of oil drains drilled out in the head only, and the two factory rear oil drains dremeled out a bit, as well as the smaller restrictors im going to try and stick a descent sized hose from my catch can to the sump to allow both oil to return and the blowby from the engine to escape without clogging up the oil returns in the head

Jarrod

does anyone have any pics of exactly where to drill out the oil drains in the head?

now you have me wondering if i should make them smaller than 1.5mm, are the standard 25 feed definately 3x1.5mm? because i wasnt getting much blowby at all with the 25 so i figure aslong as i keep it less than standard 25 it should be fine

Edited by JonnoHR31

With regards to the oil restrictors in the rb25 standard, im not 100% sure to tell you the truth, i have heard conflicting sizes, most people say the two feeds are 1.5mm, but when comparing them to the size of my 1.5mm tomei restrictor they look slightly smaller, i have heard of ppl measuring them up to be 1.3mm, the vct feed i have heard it being anywhere from 1.5-1.9mm =/, when my engine is apart ill measure whats in there now

As for the oil returns, you can see at the bottom of the block what holes go through to drain into the sump, so just follow them through to the head and youll know what to drill.. from memory im pretty sure all the small oil return holes are on the exhaust side, im going to attempt to get the two large holes at the back of the head drilled out more, i know a drifter that claims he drills them out a fair bit.. i only dremeled them up abit as i was afraid of hitting anything important.. ill let you know what gets done, but it wont be until i get my engine pulled back apart next holidays

    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
    • 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.
