Mine went through 3 clutches 2 gearboxes and 4 drive shafts. we ended up using a tractor PTO shaft/uni's for the rear drive shaft. It will still run on 5 cylinders when one desides it wants to vacate the engine block and lodge it's self between the chassi and the bodywork.Ĭrack the head and she's still good for 40 000 kms on a bottle of bars stop leak.īe warned.IT will snap UJ's if you put anything bigger then 33's on it. You can bolt the GTR intake manifold intake to the the 25 head and get rid of alot of hoses and piping. You can change the timing belt water pump and associated parts with the engine still in place.īeing a striaght six theres room for a dinner plate size seagull sucker You can change the head gasket with the engine block still in place. Some really good things about RB engines. (one other point, the RB leans back in the skyline anyway) The Rb30de/ ln56 leant back about 5 degrees, it wasn't an issue as the two largest Oil drains in a skyline head are at the back of the head.naturally thus is due to acceleration and the oil heading in that direction due to G forces naturally. the oil filler cap is a good indication, when that is screwed on and level its about right Just remember the RB engines dont sit striaght up and down, the lean over and are designed like that.

I hadn t even changed a cambelt let alone take on a full engine and driveline swap between two different brands. I did mine when i was 18 with minimal mechanical expierence. If i can get an Rb30de and a 1993 nissan skyline 5 spped box into a poxy little 1985 hilux the terrano wont be an issue.just think it through first. This will allow the main flat part of the RB sump to stay the same (only need to modify the belly), and in relation to your comment Crash bandicoot, this also allow me to mount the radiator higher, hopefully eliminating that problem.Ĭhop the tunnel and raise it where it needs to be raised.any questions you tell the wof guy you had rust issues.Īlso you will need to bolt a plate or stay to the crossmember under the engine as a fale safe to stop the sump jamming up your steering if an engine mount fails.(i had to do this) so the engine drops on the stay first and not your steering system. The center of the crank and the main flat part of sump is much longer on the RB compared to the TD, therefore the truck needs to have a bodylift (not suspension lift) installed to allow the gearbox to be rised 1 inch.
