So that is the filter relocator part of the setup yeah ? Not the part that bolts to the block ?

Why would that bit get removed ?

Can you remove the one from the block and see if it will screw in, at least that will tell you if its 3/4 unf or not

Its M18 but not sure on the thread pitch sorry

Go to a wrecker and find an old VL or r31 with an rb30 in it and Rob the fitting out of it. That's what I did

Wow, so it is the same as the factory RB30 fitting that holds the oil filter, interesting :)

I'm pretty sure it was M18 because I had to run a dye over mine. there is a definate step down in the VL filter stud from the filter end to the end that screws into the block and seen as 3/4 is pretty much 19mm I'm fairly certain its 18mm.

Just go and grab one of them, must be close to a wrecker that has some old VL's? There are heaps of them where I am, and I'm not in a huge city.

OR am I misunderstanding how the GREX plate works? mine had a female 3/4 thread to go onto the filter stud to hold the sandwich plate on then had the male 3/4 end sticking out the other side for the filter. The fitting circled looks a bit different so maybe I'm way off in my way of thinking? Not sure

Anyway, I couldnt find the part number for the stud when I was sourcing mine, but if you could find this then a quick trip to Holden/Nissan would net you a brand new one. Maybe go ask Holden and they can look it up. they generally require less information on the vehicle than NIssan. But again that all depends on if I'm thinking on the right lines or not lol

The thread in the greddy plate is bigger than 3/4x16unf...

The grex plate is the relocator plate, it sits at the top of your engine. It was a male screw in adapter stud (unsure what size) the other end of the stud houses the oil filter (3/4x16unf).

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.

      I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
