am putting together my rb30 using r32 skyline parts. From the manual i see you have to grind the lug down on the powersteering pump bracket so that it sits flush on the block have done this and bolted it all up. But when i had a test fit with the pully off the crank the pully on the crank does not line up with the powersttering pump pully?

Anyone got any ideas or pctures?

How did you end up going with this? Your problems sounds really strange as the horizontal alignment is identical. If you didn't grind back the top lug all that would happen is the pump may require a different sized belt and the two bottom bolts wouldn't tighten up flush against the bracket. Its alignment with the balancer would not be changed.

Mine was no issues, I simply ground back the top lug on the r32 gtst power steer pump bracket and bolted it on to the rb30 block.

The Rb20/25/26's bolt the top bracket bolt hole to the head where as due to the additional 38mm odd rb30 block height you simply bolt the bracket to the block but this requires the protruding lug on the std rb20/25/26 bracket to be ground back flush.

I too noticed the rb30e power steer bracket looked like it would be suitable but didn't bother testing. :P

    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
