hey all i have just been researching oil restiction for this build. i have taken the following info from the major thread. info was provided by gary (sydney kid) and can be found on page 153. here it is again. hope this helps some ppl

RB26 cylinder head= 2 oil feed galleries between the block and the head
We block one off, same as RB26's are standard
We use a 1.5 mm restrictor in the other

Plenty of oil flow to the camshaft bearings, not too much oil slopping around in the head, getting chucked into the catch can and leaving the sump in short supply.


RB25 with VVT= 2 oil feed galleries between the block and the head
Plus 1 feed to the VVT actuator
We block one off, same as RB26's are standard
We use a 1.5 mm restrictor in the other
Plus leave the VVT oil feed as per standard

Plenty of oil flow to the camshaft bearings and VVT actuator but not too much oil slopping around in the head, getting chucked into the catch can and leaving the sump in short supply.


RB25 without VVT= 2 oil feed galleries between the block and the head
Plus 1 feed to the VVT actuator
We block one off, same as RB26's are standard
We use a 2.0 mm restrictor in the other
Plus block off the VVT oil feed

and a couple of diagrams

the only question i still have that i have not been able to find an answer to is,

does it matter which gallery you restrict and which you block off??

I thought I was quite specific when I posted "same as RB26's are standard" ie; the front one

I ran with a single 1.5mm up front and blocked rear as suggested in the thread.
The setup seems ok and has travelled quite a few kms but from day one I was getting a little valve train noise for a fraction of a second following start up of which was not there prior.
If I were to do it again I'd probably go with leaving the std RB30 1.8mm restrictor up front.

All though I possibly believe the valve train noise was as a result of the head bloke not knowing what he was doing with the lifters as a result they trapped a little air inside.
So as they so do it right do it yourself. I've pulled the lifters apart; meticulously cleaned, primed and reassembled.

Im using th 25de (vvt). Ive been told i have two main options, one is to block the rear gallery all together but was told it can starve one end of the head during start up. Which isnt much of a trouble as it disappears once oil pressure is up but id rather go with the other option to just restrict both galleries using the tomei restrictors. Anyone else gone 4 this option?

The VCT head has a total of 3 feeds.

How you restrict it depends on the oil pump your going to run.

Block the middle and use the front feed (the VCT one) and then restrict the rear feed according to the table.

I posted about this before ages ago....you can use copper mig tips...just find the size that has the correct hole diameter you want and machine it down or cut it down to suit. Pretty sure most std mig tips are around a 1/4" OD.....actually i cant recall now...maybe it was about 7mm or 5/16"...either way it works tongue.gif
