hey guys

i have just had my head off my rb20det due to it leaking and had it machined etc and put new gaskets and things on.

but at the time of removing it the puller we had did not fit to take the bottom pulley off to see the timing marks. It kept hitting on the condensor. Therefore we zip tied the timing belt to the cam pulley so that it would stay in the same spot. not thinking at the time that when we get the head back that they would have moved the cams to tdc.

So now i cant line the cam gear up and the crank isnt on tdc.

So i need a puller of some sort to get the bottom pulleys off so i can see the timing marks. i have tried a screw driver on either side to try and work it loose with no luck.

If anyone has a puller i can borrow just to get the pulley off as i am on holidays and need my car back. Otherwise you can remove it for me if you are willing to come out here. All help appreciated or advice on doing this any other way or if i can do it without taking pulleys off.

Help me out please all and i wont forget it

i am on the northside of brisbane

thanx

Jason

I will help. PM your address and I will come out tomorrow arvo with one. Only problem is the thread on the bolts I use for the nissans is wrong. I kinda just wind them in till they grab. if you want to, you can go to the bolt shop tomorrow and get two 10cm bolts that fit into the thread. if not, I can still get it off anyway.

I would also be willing to help you line your marks up if you like. I have done that many of them in the last few months it's not funny.

And I mean it....it's not funny. Let me know if you need any other tools and I'll see what I can muster up.

Nah, I think you've about covered it :D

Also, using the wrong thread is ok for emergency, but I'd be getting the right bolt straight away. We dodgied mine (on VL) late one night and it partially threaded, but luckily we had a set of tap and dies on hand and remade the thread. It was the same bolt he'd been using on another mates VL with no dramas too :S

    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
    • thanks GTSboy. My confusion at the moment is i am trying to locate the ignition, ECU battery power and the ECU negative The closest thing i can find is the for the S15 on Page 8 of the Wiring Specialties web page https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9F33_M_GgENQnZ6STMxVmVNd1E/view?resourcekey=0-eZ4nNRwRoqa1qvKlWWHm8A I cannot find the same diagram for the R33 RB25DET Series 2 dash plug pin out.... Do you know what the Pins? or know where i can find the same pinout diagram for the RB dash plug? Thanks for the advice on the box... i like a 6 speed so might be on the lookout or the box now.. a topic of discussion for another post...
    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
