Asr Sumps

[works 510]

Hey,

Interested in buying one of these.

Did a search before and have found that some are using the rb30 asr sump in their R32's without any mods to swaybar etc.

I have emailed ASR and they have said that rb30 and rb25 sumps are different in the front to suit skylines etc.

Now, I was under the influence that the stock rb25 sump needs some mods to suit the rb30 so the crank has enough room.

Is this the same case for the ASR sumps?

or will the asr rb25 sump work on the rb30 block with no problems?

Dont want to buy a sump that wont work

All of their sumps now have the leading edge chamfer to clear the swaybar.

I believe the difference to clear the crank is there are a couple of little upstands in the rear shallow section of the sump that have to be removed to run on a 30.

My ASR sump has these upstands but I will be removing before install.

I will however, seriously advocate the use of these ASR sumps. They are a very nice bit of kit and are identical to the High Energy items (as ASR makes them for High Energy).

Bit the bullet and drove across town to talk to them in person, very helpful.

Got a quick tour of the business, ended up with a S/C rb30 sump.

$620, cant go wrong.

Very nice! That's the Street/Circuit pan yeah?

Indeed.

Was thinking about the circuit based sump, but it has a extra 20mm depth over standard which might be a problem in my street rego'd car. 8.5 litres capacity is pritty awesome though

Yeah we have one of thier circuit based sumps and it is very nice. ASR / high energy sumps are the only tin sumps i would recommend.

Cool, I gots the ProCircuit for the extensive baffling/gates. Was very impressed with the quality!

Anyone fitted one and having problems with hitting the swaybar?

I have one with the notch to suit imports.

rb2530 into a cefiro

Might have to change to a rb into s13 conversion swaybar.

Bought an ASR comp/circuit pan for my new engine.

Had to take a fair bit out of the front of it to clear the swaybar and space the swaybar down 5mm.

For $950 you would think it would be a perfect fit???

^ not the first time I've heard of similar stuff having to be done

[FineLine]

I had to do similar mods to dave but to be fair to the sump manufacturer lowering a 30 bottom end is the reason.

If you left it standard height you wouldnt have to do the mods to make it fit.

[NYTSKY]

Even without lowering, the pan would have fouled.

The material taken out was higher up the pan than the engine was lowered......if that makes sense.

here I was thinking that my cefiro might be the problem.

Same deal with R32 I assume?

How did you go about spacing the swaybar?

just made some spacer blocks from billet alloy and drilled it to correspond with the existing holes.
