ey fellas

got a bit of an issue here i had an RB25DET in my r32 gtst-4 and now im putting the RB into a 180sx i took the 4wd sump off and bought a standard RB25 sump from jap parts plus.. When i wen to put it on this arvo nothing lined up the sump seemed to short which leads me to believe they have given me the wrong one

just wondering if anyone has any other possible ideas to why the so called standard sump doesnt line up with motor??

cheers

what would be the best suggestion im going on atm buying a rwd 25 bottom end and smashing the head off mine on it... or just buying a cheap 25 unless thesre is someone or some shop that possibly sells custom sumps...

You can always remove the front diff and mod your awd sump @ embleton or some other ally welder

if you want to go as far as swapping blocks then RB30 would be cheaper, more torque and theres a few rb30 modded sumps on the market

If you're going that far might aswell get a 30 bottom end and smash your 25 head onto that..

Pretty sure that's your answer to everything....

Lyell can you replace that light globe in the lounge room? "Yeah, I'll smash an RB30 up there" :D

LOL Nathan.. at least in this instance it's actually cheaper and better if he's considering swapping to a rwd block!

P.S. I was waiting for this :(

problem solved guys, was thinking of the 25/30 conversion but in the process of a hopeful/ succesful 26/30 build for my 32..

as i was removing the silicon from the bottom of the block i started digging up little 10mm thread holes in the block, once i cleaned the bottom of the block and changed the pick-up ad dropped the 25 sump on it all lined up, the guys who did the conversion on the car before i bought it muct of tapped out new holes for the 4wd sump and diff... all the stressing and all i had to do was clean it abit

thanks for the advice fellas have a good chrissy!

Second set holes are on all 4wd blocks . If your using tin sump how did you modify mount brackets for bottom row of bolts to hold box against block ??

Are you talking about the wings that bolt to the bottom of the bellhousing?

    • bumping this post as im still having dramas, my fuel pick up is sitting on the bottom of the tank, my pump gets a constant 13 volts through a relay, my fuel pressure holds consistently without fluttering or dropping, yet as soon as im near half a tank of fuel my car starts fuel starving and leaning out, it cant be due to g force as it never pulls hard enough before it starts breaking up, any help would be much appreciated 
    • Just a thought, was that car and auto at any point of its life? If so, maybe whoever bridged the inhibitor switch/circuit did a not so good job.
    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
