Wat To Do Rb25 4 U

[simor32]

hey guys im from perth and i wanted to no if its worth puttin a rb25det into my r32 gtst. the rb20 is okay but i want more power and from wat i look at in the rb20 mods page compared to the rb25 thread, its pretty clear wich is better. ive got 7grand to play with.

cheers

25's are much more fun, more torque.

Not much point... for 7k you might get a stock rb25 engine into your car thats about it if you did it on the cheap. Good idea if you want the car for quiet along time and want to get 350+rwhp with the R32 gtst.

On the other hand 7k will get you 250+rwhp if you use your money wisely on the rb20 and if you want anywhere up to 320-330rwhp the rb20 will be fine which is heaps for rwd street car!

If your going for a convertion on a r32 i think the rb26 is a lot easyer to do than a rb25. Also you wouldnt need to spend $7000 to make a rb20 more powerfull than a stock rb25 and you less likey to do the rings on your rb20 if your thinking about running more than 1 bar boost.

try 5k at the absolute worst.

Motor & loom & labour to fit i would envisage a 5k or less pricetag. Its dependant if you fit an RB25 box or not.

For a stock turbo'd RB25 motor, the stock RB20 box will hold no problem anyway IMO. So not worth changing.

So yeah, under 5k easily

yeah cheers for the input, wouldnt a rb26 be pretty expenisve and would u need the different gearbox and other stuff like that correct me if im wrong. yeah i want the car for awhile its mint condition its got 20's on it but i wanna change them to bloody expesive for tryes. hyperdrive said id get the complete motor for 2.5k or 3grand, and instal is 1500, and they said wit the rest of them money do injectors ,z32afm, fuel pump, powerfc.

i think it sounds orright. are hyperdrive good, if herd really good stuf about em but i thought id ask u guys aswell.

[jazza08]

Sorry I meant, rb25 + box + ecu/loom + install charges would get up closer to that 7k mark.

I guess alot depends on where u get the motor and who installs it!

Hyperdrive is excellent and only do top work Check the 34 V-spec out the front if you are unsure along with the many other GTR's around that place!!

hey predator how much will the full engine pakage cost. without gearbox cheers man, sweet site. i have seen it b4.

[Josh]

As much as I love my 20, I'd love to smash a 25 in the 32.. All comes down to money(Which I dont have in large quantities..) and how much reliable power your after..

[smurf80]

7g is a bit harsh for an rb25 conversion even with all the extras..

engine and gearbox package would be $3800 alone

[simor32]

im lookin for over 350hpatw intend on forged rubuild and bigger turbo and all the other stuff that need to be done.

[R31Nismoid]

well flick that over to a $15,000 conversion then easily

[predator]

lol.. yeah

get the engine done, then put it in if you really want to go that way. I'd ask why though? that sort of power won't be that useable to drive around with..

You can get a basic rb25 engine package (no gearbox) for around $2k with loom and ecu..

My conversion cost $1600 for the engine loom/ecu and about $300 of the misc stuff I needed (labour was me therefore free). Bit of a special price though, guy sold his old car and just wanted it gone.

Hi i have a rb25det in a r32 it was worth it, all up it cost 1,400 and 3,000 for the 25 I have a r33 computer in it and loom, stock gear box and diff, stock intercooler stock exhaust the boost is a 11psi and it goes hard. i thinck a good 13.2 to 12.8

I could not thinck how hard it will go with all the mods eg. a good 310 rwkw.

Also we did the rear grads a bit bigger than a GTR looks tuff with the 19”s

I'm selling a NEO RB25 for $2500 but not in Perth sorry. That gives you an idea of what you can get. $1800-$2500 for the engine with loom, turbo, ecu, add $1500 for fitting and you're away. Call it $4000 but allow a few dollars for the unforseen.

How far could you take your RB20 for $4500? Probably a fair way... but would $3800 get you as far? Dunno.
