I want to do the Rb30/25 in my Datsun C210 Skyline . I have been reading the threads about this hybrid and just want abdolute convincing that I can use the stock non turbo RB30E block and put the RB25 DE on then add turbo manifolds, Are there some turbo oil lines that are suppose to return oil to the sump, and if so how do they attach? would like to see some pics if possible. Excuse my noobieness but I've only ever run carbs and i'm out of my zone. I have a block on offer to me and would like to buy it soon if usable.Ricky

Not all RB30's are the same.

You need to make sure the block has the machined surface for the idler bearing and at the bottom of the block surface half way along it has to have the bung there for the turbo oil drain.

The idler bearing is right next to where the tensioner is positioned on the 30 engine. It will just be a flat surface, with a 10mm hole and a 1.5 thread in it. This is where you'll need to put the idler bearing

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
