Wouldn't it be cheaper/less hassle to just get a DET block in that case?

Yes it would. And if the engine is not assembled with the turbo pistons in place, it is almost impossible to get the positioning right as a flat surface needs to be machined, hole drilled, thread tapped.....then you gotta get 6 oil squirters. Sounds like a head-f**k to me. Get a DET block as suggested

Yeah that was my thoughts too after looking into it.

I am most likely going down the path of the DET block. The only issues I see is that the Oil Gallery for the VVT that I will not be using will be to be welded or Grub screwed (No biggy) but the Water gallery for the VVT block (near the VVT Oil gallery) is different to the Non VVT head (The one I have) This may need to be welded in parts and then re-machined die grind-ed to suit..

See pics on the first page.

It should be ok but I still needed to ask the question to see if the oil squirters could be done correctly?

The Permaseal MLS Gasket (on their website) is the same part number for both R32 and R33 RB25 tells me that it may be OK to use (This could also be a web site screw-up though). It looks like the actual sealing part of the gasket will go around both water galleries sizes .

I will check this once I get my hands on a DET Block to determine my options.

Thanks.

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.

      I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Rezz · Posted

      Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.

      Noobie Stagea owner..

      By Turbodoc · Posted

      Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
