Is This Rb25de ?

[YanG]

I just bought a Skyline M-spec Series II 1996 Auto, and i dunno what sort of engine it is.

The other question is, how to make an engine more smooth when it used for 10 years already?

Thanks for helping me. i will apprieciate Your helps.

2L single cam, depending on the price you paid - you might have been ripped off badly.

and to make it "smoother" would be a full service.

waut... you bought a car without knowing what enginr it had??

i thought that type of engine went in the early R32 GTS? not in a 96 model R33 series II

R33's were offered as a bottom of the barrel rb20e

YanG = judging by your thread's name, if you bought the car advertised as a non turbo RB25DE, then you've been seriously mislead.

An rb25de should look something along the lines of the rb25det, without the turbo obviously

I hope for your sake you weren't misled and paid according to RB25 pricing...

EDIT: No offence, but don't people research what their buying these days? Do they just go out, fork out the cash, take it home, then ask questions, ie. Can you drive this object I just bought? Does it have wheels? What is the steering wheel for?...

whoa those puppies put out a massive 95kw at the fly... and an auto. i feel sorry for you mate...

[YanG]

Thanks for you uys answer.

But then this kind of engine with the skyline R33 will be around how much?

Hopefully i didn't pay much of it. cause it take me 12grands to got it.

[Eug]

are there rims? suspension? bodykit? stereo? that came with the car? how is the overall condition of the car?

i would be trying to get some money back otherwise if it were advertised to you as an RB25DE.

depending on overall condition + mods, i'd say you paid abt 1-2g more than you should have.

[Freddy Kruger]

got a pic of the rest of the car?

[lingeringsoul]

you paid 12 grand for an RB20e????............I don't even know where to start............I think you just got f**ked sideways with icecream on top

[Freddy Kruger]

with icecream? whoa thats getting extreme...

is true tho. no way would someone willingly get such a stooge of an engine in a skyline... well thats my opinion anyway...

[YanG]

got a pic of the rest of the car?

This car come with 17inch rim, year 1996, alpine sound system 300kw, one sub-woofer, factory sun roof, RWC, 1 year reg till 2007 apr, and 2 immobilizer for 12,000.

The owner also offer me that 11,000 without any sound system. but i choce with the sound system. Then i paid 12,000 to him.

Am i really made a very bad deal?

[Freddy Kruger]

actually. thats pretty good, and the factory sunroof etc except for the engine thats pretty good. just dont try and race anyone with it... and the money you save on petrol you can put towards a rb26 conversion

you on your Ps?

oh you also didnt say if the seller told you it was a rb25de?

what mean with Ps ? sorry, i was a noob for this forum, just join.

yea.. The owner didn't said that. Cause this is the first time i bought the car by myself, have none of the knowledge. So it was the experience to be paid if there is a loss.

May i ask one more question? =p if convert to RB26 will be cost how much with the labour wages?

Thanks Alot to you guys.. i get my answer here.

yea.. firstly i thought 1996 skyline will always come with rb25de or rb25e. is that true? cause the previous owner told me that it born at 1996.

[siddr20]

dont bother with rb26 conversion just yet..

Just put a stock rb25det engine in there. Thats what that car was built for.. or rb25de..

But it will cost anywhere between 3-5k-6k includin labour n all..

Hmm if you were mislead take it back and try and get a refund!!

[siddr20]

Ps-means license type..

You live in aus lol??

[lingeringsoul]

that is seriously whacked....I know of 94 R33 with Rb20e but Series 2? I thought all series two came with the Rb25de or t

aha.. yea, still on Ps. haha.

Last time i asked the owner, and he just answer me "Don't know" then i didn't ask more about that. and i was lack of knowledge for skyline. Just compare to this kind of skyline with other, and found out it was cheaper, but dunno there was a different for the engine. it's was my big big mistake. I think i can't take any refund on it, under the business law. Any suggestion? siddr20? thanks for answer my post. =)
