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

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 =)

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)

    • Think I found another reason to buy the Q50 rather than the skyline import, seems that unless you get the 400r the other models such as the GT miss out on the decent brakes and don't have the flappy paddles on the steering wheel to change gears. Its my day off work today and the Q50 listed @ the dealer in Brisbane that I mentioned in my 1st post looks like it sold as its listed as no longer available... Would have checked it out but can understand why it sold as it was a bargain price.
    • omfg.... That shopping list game. I'd hoped I'd never see it again.
    • There are fixes for this. In industry we use compressed air for everything. It is frequently wet, and many things cannot tolerate it. So there are various forms of driers available that you can install. The simplest option for something like this would be a dessicant drier. Much cheaper to replace some silica gel than actuator cylinders.
    • That's a solid update mate, well done at WA FOS. You may already know this, but the actuators on the paddle shift are a service item and are sadly not that reliable. As I understand it they collect water from the compressor (condensation) which then rusts the bores/pistons in the actuators. A mate of mine had no end of trouble with them in one if his circuit cars, apparently it's a 'known issue'. Buy a couple of spares at great expense to ensure you never have any problems with the ones you've got! Any clues about what the new WTAC rules might be? While faster cars are cool the Pro class arms race has got to the point where you wouldn't even bother entering without a $1m budget and even then I don't think you'd win.

You can see another picture of it here: https://www.alltranz.com.au/shop/drivetrain/automatic-transmission/RE5R01A/product/9305/ The 4 speed automatic in the GTT is Nissan corporate stuff. You can search up similar jobs done on a Frontier or Pathfinder with a RE4R01B to get an idea for what the internals are going to look like and the procedure like this:
