Hi all was driving home work tonight cruising along and my S1 25g with stock N/A RB25de started to run very sluggish s0o pull over switch her off but she will not start, got power, faul pump and starter goes got comprestion,inject pulse and spark but wont start.

right....well then you already know it is likely to be bad then.

the only rb know for sure is non interferance is rb20. if rb25det is interferance and rb25de has higher compression....it is very unlikely to be OK.

Come on Duncan don't be a spoil sport, I am pretty sure JP showed you the timing belt that came off my R33 when the idler bearing seized and stripped the timing belt.

New belt fitted, it started and purred like a kitten. :banana:

I have no chance of winning Powerball now. :no:

yeah 25det and 26dett definately are interferance. Not really surprised rb30e is non, I wonder what a hybrid rb30det is, pretty likely it will be interferance?

Andrew....damn straight you have used up all your luck! I broke a cam a few years back, that was carnage for valves and pistons :(

The mechanics expected they were going to take the head off but figured it was worth trying to fit a belt and idler bearings and then turn it over by hand to see what would happen. It turned ok, so they cranked it and it started like normal.

There is no joy in getting the bill for a new timing belt (etc) but in this case it beats the hell out of a new engine.

I have seen teeth stripped off the belt before and every time the belt had been subjected to engine oil leaking on it. Look for oil leaks and check bearings I would like to know what caused the belt to break.

Should know today

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).

      EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
