currently building one using the 300k+ block that's already in the car ( seems to be in perfect condition surprisingly so have all my 30's other then one having f**ked vss ) and if i'm feeling adventurous highly unlikely though as i am a lazy flamin mongrel who hates to lay on the floor other then to sleep, the sump will be coming off to throw some bearings in it and to bump up the oil pressure up (lack of driveway).

almost together and consists of

gt35/40 cheapie on a decent high mount and external gate

3.5' superdragger i think

ebay plenum

660cc injectors

decent cooler 2.5" piping

z32 afm ( thinking about going the r35 route thoughts ? )

decent cooler

stock 25det head tidied up and modified for vct

arp studs

stock head gasket not genuine nissan

hdi boost controller

twin tensioners side by side

ebay oil cooler

external bosch 044 with surge

alloy rad

genuine nissan thermostat

cheapie catch can to do the catching

mx7/33box with 4 puck clutch

thinking about limiting it to 6.5 k rpm with the 300k old bearings and stock oil pump or around the 7 mark if i can be arsed to change the bearings.

hoping to pound it with 20psi and am hoping for just over the 300 mark, thoughts ?

Sounds ok I have 314 awkw with stock unbalanced bottom end but with rings, bearings and conrod bolts limited to 7000rev/min and 1.5bar. If you don't do the bearings limit it to 6000 - 6500 and it should make near enough the same power.

Kiwi rs4t that sounds like exactly what i'm hoping to do ! thanks, i have been waiting for thread like this to come up haha.

Superben, Surprisingly the motor looks brand new, the car has been serviced at a max interval of 7,000km's since new and everything that can be seen looks great.

Mine is a completely untouched low km bottom end bolted to a untouched head.

Rev limited to 6500rpm and 20psi putting just over 350rwkw. Only ever gets driven hard too.

Got some blow by at wtac, but that may have been from bouncing of the limiter all the down the main straight.

Cylinder psi is 130 across all 6 but im not sure I check correctly either.

Edit. Does has a 25 oil pump

i just pulled apart my next rb30. has pistons with 67s20 on the top. can anyone confirm if there genuine nissan rebuild ones? the part number on the pistons is the last numbers of the nissan rings but cant find part number as pistons

hopefully they are nissan ones. rebuilt between 100000 and 205000km somewhere

I'm not familiar with stock rb30 pistons, but stock rb26 pistons have 05U and a dot indicating front. So if 67S20 is the end of a Nissan part number it seems likely they are standard. And therefore standard bore as well which is good

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
