Hey man im at my course now so i can reply immediately cose its sooooo boring i cant be f*$ked listening to teacher... . Wrong man, its a RB25DET engine not RB20DET engine =). 2.5l turbo but im taking turbo off cose of insurance and my parents either 2moro or on friday so its gonna suck but still great car I love it. Also, where is a good wrecker in livo, fairfield area? Prefeferably nissan or Jap imports dealer? and also... the date and time of meet up plz

What the ?????

Dude, Ronin is right, unless you have had a transplant... R32=RB20DET - 2.0L.

Taking the tubo off doesn't sound like a good idea to me - the compression will be too low for an NA. Not sure how good that would be for you.

Cheers,

DarkZero: unless your car has had an engine conversion it would appear you are incorrect. The R32 GTST uses an RB20DET not RB25DET.

Also as Brendan said, taking the turbo off your car to avoid insurance problems is rather foolish. Not only will your car run very very bad but you will loose any resale value you would have had on the car and it will prove to me more hassle than its worth.

If you must have NA then surely you would sell your car as is and buy a non turbo.

PS: im sure all will be revealed on Saturday night when you pop your bonnet for us. If we find as we suspect and your engine is an RB20DET we may have no choice but to nominate you to pay for all the pizza :D

Mr R32 is here!

It sounds like a transplant as R32 came in RB/20DET/25DE/26DETT.

Taking the turbo will make you slower than R32's with a RB25, cause like others have said, compression is too low, and may play funny games with the ECU.

hey guys

just hyping u on fellas see if u know about skylines lol =)))). Its a RB25DE (no T) but they can have Turbo bolton. so it is a non turbo GTS25 (still 2.5l not 2.0l). hopefully i'll be there to pop up the bonnet but i need to clean the engine its dirty as inside since i just got it. and Im not paying for pizza as this damn car set me broke =(

sorry for being a dhead and thanks for ur comments u guys know what u talk about although they do come in turbo but mine aint =)

it's more than just a bolt on cause, now it's too much of a high compression :D and the ECU will not take too likely to a turbocharger being wacked on.

Sorry to say but transplant is the best way to go.

Hey

Yeah, transplant is better ofcourse but im only 18 with red ps and no money so that is no option (how much? $3500 for new engine with turbo?) plus insurance on top of everything its a car which gets me from a to b (in style and fair power =)).

I need to get a new front grill and badges off wrecker. I'll have a look at the one stated above unless some1 here has spare ones for sale?

Thanks

It's easier if you sell it off and get a car that's turbo from factory cause insurance companies will consider the car as "modified". You need engineer's certificate, upgrade brakes to match the power and maybe other things. It's a headache you can do without. Talk to the guys at the cruise and they'll tell you the same thing and maybe even more.

As I said... no performance mods for near future except air filter, exhaust and all that cheapy stuff. Also what does premium unleaded do? any extra performance or is it just healthier for engine. For my R32 2.5l what is better? Unleaded or premium unleaded?

Thanks for your opinions dudes

I gotta go with you boyz on this one. R32 is 2 litre unless its had an engine replacement, and i guess theres more work in putting the bigger engine than just pop it in, and why would you bother. You would just by a 33, they are cheap enough...anyway I havent even heard of the 2.5 non turbo thingy (bloody noob I am)i'll sell you mine for 50 grand (good virgin exhausts are pullin this type of cash these days...mark my words)

    • Hello, im asking about this guy - coil igniter on rb25det series 1 r33 s1 engine. I need to know if pins on coil side indicate coils itself from 1-6 or it’s firing order so pin nr1 goes to 1st fired spark plug:(1pin-1firing spark, 2pin-5order firing spark, 3-3, 4-6, 5-2, 6-4…)   photo: https://files.fm/f/k9pdug38uq
    • Remove it. Certainly from the hub face. I'm not in love with leaving it on the wheel assembly surface either - but if it is common to do so, then....maybe fair enough. It's not difficult. Just time consuming. For the hub face you just need a large enough block and suitable grades of abrasive paper to get it off flat. The same would be true of the assembly face. Just more time consuming, probably needing a lot more care. It's defo going to be easier just to assemble the wheels as is, seal them up, and check them periodically to see if there's any movement or loosening of the fasteners, than it will be to remove it though.
    • Hello, I got my wheels powder coated and they've powder coated bloody everything the mating surface and hub (even told them not to lol) anyway should I leave it or remove it. (Would be very hard) I've searched a lot and lots of powder coaters don't mask the mating surface but do mask the hub surface. How bad it powder coat on the mating surface or hub? My question is what should I do?
    • Yeah, R34 with RB25DE likely has a 4AX01 box in it, which is a medium duty auto ~ with the RB25DET mill, it would've been fitted with 4AX00 (4AX13) heavy duty build (same case, different internals). An RB25DET will lunch on a medium duty 4R01 auto in pretty short order ...to give you some visual idea of differences between the 'medium' and 'heavy duty' boxes, you only have to look at the 2/4 band for comparison...it's chalk and cheese...(plus bigger high clutch, extra pinion in the planetary sets, higher oil pump output, different bearings, higher TC stall speed )... You can control them with just about any aftermarket TCU for electric-over 4-speed with TC lockup clutch (ie; the GM 4L60E and others)...I have a custom standalone TCU that includes MAP sensor (for turbo applications) along with TPS, RPM, and line pressure monitoring...in other words, I don't use any ECU signals...no real need to.
