Rb26 plenumn

Rb26 ITB's

Adapter plate to suit Rb25 head.

Figured i may as well try set this up and see how it goes.

now i havnt recieved it yet but from what ive been reading i can either run off a MAP or TPS sensor, obvious things like tuneable ecu for such and other things like getting vacuum for booster, FRP ect.

From what ive read people either get a vacuum pump or simply set up a vacuum manifold and run a line off each throttle boddie to the chamber then one to booster, frp and whatever else needs it?

Can anyone shed some light onto the situation or put their feedback into this?

Cheers matt.

You're right, there is f all info out there on them. Didn't stop us from building a setup though.

I've been running ITB's on my rallycar for a few years now and they work a treat. http://www.skylinesdownunder.com/forums/showthread.php?t=52581&page=14

Mine are 4AGE Toyota ones off a 20 Valve, mounted on an adaptor plate and the original intake runners. Cam, head, pistion work etc has leat to a fairly angry little N/A RB20DE. Has taken a few years of tuning and trying things as no one in NZ had done one like this, so it was a bit hit and miss originally.

Mine runs open trumpets with individual filters, so all tuning is done from the TPS, which works fine now.

As far as the brake booster goes I had the same issue with lack of vacuum, made worse by the cams I run. I run a Wilwood dual cylinder pedal box for brake bias, which also means I can run with no booster and it is a good leg work out.

Good luck with the build, even if it does't go faster it will sound fantastic!

will do zebra cheers

awesome work screamin!, sounds pretty throaty. although seems the induction goes away higher in the revs?

Dont have that sort of money for such a brake set up haha, but mine wont be as crazya s what you have done, as you said, im not chasing power, more sound and something different.

What sort of ecu are you running?

Also mine arrived today :D, look pretty good, going to be a fun job.

hey im also interested in something like this for my 25/30.... best option seems to be buying an adapter plate (rips quoted me $500) and using the rb26 bits.... i need a tune anyway so this seems like the best option... if anyone has a setup or something give me the ballpark figure in what im expected to spend ! haha

Took about three years of tuning and racing before we got it really humming. Unlike more conventional RB setups (read turbo) there are no preset maps to start with for the ECU. Stpe one was to make it start, step two idle and so on... For the last five years I've been running this setup I have had the trumpets open with individual filter socks. A real pain having to clean them all the time because of the gravel dust, but clean filters makes a big difference to the power output.

I am planning on getting an airbox built, but am too busy racing it to pull the intake off and make something up, plus it's going alright atm, so no point fixing it...

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
