Hi everyone sorry to ask a silly question but, I’m looking for an rb30 crank bolt however, being in the US it makes it pretty difficult and arp bolts are no where to be found. I do have an arp bolt for my 26 and was wondering if I could use it if I tap the crank. The thing the bothers me is the length of bolt. Do you all know the length difference?

Tap the crank ?!

The thing that should bother you is the fact you want to weaken the crank to use a stronger bolt.

Platinum racing on their US site have an M16 ARP bolt that is compatible with RB30.

Though that is true I can’t find the washer :(

I ordered a RB20/RB25/RB30 12 point ARP crank bolt from Platinum Racing. I plan on just using the stock washer. Anyone know the torque valve for the ARP bolt? I know the shop manual is 45nm/330 Ftlbs. With the ARP bolt I feel like the torque value would be less. I searched everywhere here in the states and had to order it from PR. They are very hard to come by here.

Pretty sure that’s the rb26 torque spec, the rb 20/25/30 is a lot lower

I'm confirming this. If my memory is correct, I believe it was somewhere around 240ftlb's.

      Cas issue

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
