g'day

ive had a starter motor go walk about on me... old man says he gave it to the auto electrician, auto sparky says he's never seen it, you know the story...

Anyway i need one and wanted to know which models of rb starter motors will fit or if there is a aftermarket one that will be a straight fitment

the motor is out of an r34 GTT with a 5 speed manual box behind it (rb25det neo) i know ive got an rb30 one sittin round but im a bit skeptical as to wether it will fit hopefully ill be able to get my paws easily on an r33 one... im gonna try it tonight but see what you guys reakon... ive tried genuine parts from nissan but they want my first born so they can forget it

any help would be great

p.s.

i have also swapped between auto and manual starter motors on the 25det neo and i havent had any problems ( manual starter motor in auto car not the other way around)

Cheers

i think its dependent on the gearbox

if its a rb25 box the rb30 started wont fit, i think that only fits rb20 box

im not 100% sure on any of this though

i would have thought it would be more to do with the flywheel and how far it moves out when engaged... as long as it clears the gearbox and meshes good with the flywheel i should be onto a winner... way better than forking out 1300 big ones for a new nissan one... imagine all the ps3 games i could get for that ha ha

finally got a chance to get under my car today... got a few things done, including the starter motor and yes an rb30 one does fit and crank pretty good... beats buying one since i had this one lying round from an old rb30... i should get most of the car done over my month long xmas break :P

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
