As the topic states. I can remember seeing them a while ago on hioctane.com but can't find them anymore. It was a plate that allowed you to use a rwd sump on the rb26 block. This would have been perfect for my planned application of a 26 in a 32 gts-t, but if they don't exist anymore then i'll have to find another way. Has anybody else seen them/know what i'm on about? Or did i just dream it up?

Cheers

Yea the 26 block has the holes that allow you to bolt a 20/25 sump pan on there but you have to fiddle with the pick up as it hits the baffles and a little to the front of the sump itself

Use the 26 sump and get it modded

I've got an rb26 sump modified for rwd if your interested. They can be a pain to modify due to steering rack clearance on the drivers side, and they tend to change shape if you don't bolt them to a block while welding.

yeah interesting. Only reason i wanted to use the adapter and a rwd sump was it would have been cheaper to put a high volume sump on, compared to a high volume/baffled gtr sump. Food for thought now anyway. I emailed hioctane - no response yet.

those sumps are for RB into BMW conversions to clear the bmw crossmember.. the pickup is also relocated to the rear of the sump.

it means we can have our own sump style to suit all rb20/25/26/30's with the small change to the sump ring to allow for the different oil pickup location on the rb26 block

No wonder i couldn't find it using the word "girdle" in the search. It's listed with a typo as a "gridle". Nor does it have the word sump in it anywhere.

This is it.

Although i've gone off the idea now anyway. I think a modded gtr sump for rwd with a tomei baffle will be fine for my intended purposes.

    • Haven’t had the chance to drive it yet with work being a nightmare, will definitely be doing that at some point this week. got these so that grip won’t be an issue at roll racing  
    • The cross sectional area of a circular hole scales with the square of diameter. So a 2mm diameter hole is 4x the area of a 1mm hole. Not double. The 1.7mm hole is nearly 3x the area of a 1mm hole. You do not need restrictors at both ends of the oil supply line. If you have new, additional restrictors at the turbo end, that you did not have before, then you do not need a restrictor at the inlet end.
    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist
    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
