hehe, I'm all outa cash at the moment so it'll be stock for a long while...

Either way I kinda regret modifying the previous stagea to the level I did, it never drove quite as nice as when we first bought it.

I must be getting old or something - I'm enjoying the quiet, smooth, comfortable ride in the new one and it also feels plenty fast enough for a wagon (I'm sure I'll want it to go faster pretty soon though).

But after the amount I spent on the last one and seeing what the car became, I sorta think it'll be a nicer car for a lot longer if I just leave it as is. :P

Still cant believe how nice it drives...

hahah i rekon it IS age, im ejoying the comfy ride too. and it kicks ass for a wagon, no one expects it to pickup speed like it does, especially in sydneys eastern suburbs.

So yours takes a little longer to shift sometimes? I've noticed mine tends to be a bit laggy on the kickdown and if i put my foot to the floor, it feels as if its slipping pretty badly and doesn't really take off that well. I've acheived the best acceleration by easing the throttle in. Slamming it to the floor on takeoff just seemed to overload it and it made a lot of noise but wasn't that quick. Felt like something was slipping - not sure if its the clutch packs not engaging properly or the trans slipping a little. On another note, i have a guage on my dash saying "front torque" measured in N-m x 10. It only seems to make it to about 3 on the guage - meaning only 30 N-m. I'm sure the needle should go higher. I'm talking about when its in "synchro mode" - which I thought was 50-50 split (although I haven't seen the needle move at all when not in this mode - even on hard launches). Hoping my guage is wrong. Everything else seems to work however. And it does feel quick when I give it a bit of stick. :O

Pity it was only my phone camera though.

      RB20 and 25 NEO differences

      By Neostead2000 · Posted

      I had no transmission at all so I managed to find a big box manual gearbox from an R34 GTT for an insanely good price in EU. I converted it to push type which cost more than the transmission almost, with parts from Amayama! These engines are very strong and can put out decent power with a properly sized turbo. You can save on money from parts like pistons and rods, and invest those in the transmission and other parts. I suggest you join the RB20 Enthusiasts facebook group, plenty of info and almost daily posts there about 20DE/DET/Neo+T builds. (I hope I'm not breaking any forum rules by mentioning third party platforms, just trying to help the buddy out)

      Yeah, having tried all of those methods including BBQ+recipro/hacksaw, I ended up buying a bush press kit under $150 that works well, like this: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/355967727167?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=705-154756-20017-0&ssspo=sfmmuhxgqhm&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=dJvnaZ11TB-&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY It basically has a range of pushers and cups with threaded rods between to press out a range of large bushes. The problem with any sawing solution is minimising damage to the subframe side, although it probably needs a quick sand afterwards no matter what solution you try due to damage

      Hi. Thanks for the answer. I do not have instagram 😄 I too considering turbo the RB20DE NEO 🙂 But i think i upgrade the gearbox first or at least buy new.
