Hey everyone ,

As the title suggests can anyone advise 100% for sure whether the RB25DE (non Turbo) 5 Speed Transmission is the same as RB25Det (Turbo) Transmission ? Does anyone know if they will interchange without problem ? Both cars by the way are 1997 series 2 variants.

Secondly does the series 1 and series 2 , 5 speed RB25det Trannys differ , are they interchangable without problem ?

PLEASE HELP !

Thanks !

Don't know if this helps, but when looking at short shifters, the listing on them states that one type will fit the r32 turbo and 33 non turbo,, the turbo for the R33 was a different shifter to the non turbo,,,,

cheers

Thanks for the Tip John ! Anyone else with some more precise information ? PLEASE Im desperate here !

you'll find the information elsewhere on here.. but I am pretty positive they are not the same strength as the turbo box, more in line with the RB20 box. So don't go thinking they will hold up similarly.

They look different as well, the rb25det box is pretty fat and has a lot of ribbing on the side.. the DE one isn't. The DE one is also worth next to nothing, probably for good reason.

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
