Hello Everyone

I'm in the middle of rebuilding my motor and i have come accross that my crankshaft on the rb has the short oil drive. My question is if I was to have the oil pump collar put on my crankshaft, would the crankshaft need to be balance after fitting the collar in? The only reason why I'm asking machine shops

were I live don't have the equipment to balance the crank.

Thank You.

Thank you for everyones comments,and now thats been said.

Can some direct me to a shop in australia, that can install a collar and balance my crank.

Thanks.

The same person doing the rest of your balancing/machining.

as a engine reconditioner and a x balancer.. rb engines dont need to be balanced as they where only a few grams out say 3 front and 3 rear and a pen weights about 10 grams so u know where im going.. anyway the crank will need to be machined to fit the coller and is used on rb30s and early rb2s as they didnt get enough oil for the needs.. the rb25 has the oil pump drive built up and the rb20s dontmake the power for the oil problem unless drifting.....

    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
    • You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
