The stock plenum on the neo apparantly has different injectors to previous RB25s. They are a skinny plastic injector, and the biggest about are 440 odd cc from HKS.

this is from a mag article (HPI) of a Neo buildup. But probably wouldnt be a hassel if you dont intend tuning very hard, or decide to get a different plenum?

Some bits that I know, R34GTT RB25DET makes 206 kw standard, turbo is Hitachi copy of Garrett and looks the same as a late model R33, has a ceramic turbine and a plastic compressor wheel. (Still ball bearing hi flow easily for 230 rwkw). Have much more movement in the VVT than I have seen on R33's. Compression ratio is 9 to 1. ECU is much more sophisticated, upgrading to a Power FC is the go. Although I haven't measured them, the valves look to be the same size. Injectors are skinny plastic things, seem to flow around the same as R33 ones (370 cc's), so OK to around 230 rwkw.

Hope that helps

R33's have steel compressor wheels, right? How high can you wind up the boost on one of these turbo's with nylon compressors?

Heh did you want a reliable figure? Disconnect the hose to the actuator and see if you don't.

    • Ah yes, but the part in my hand was actually painted and fitted by me! I knew any front lip was likely to be sacrificial but I've had to fix it twice already... by the time I buy a fibreglass fixing kit, sort out sandpaper blocks, buy some fibreglass filler, body bog, spend the time and effort for a 'Greg' result... a new one being $290 seems like it's the better way to go and spray that with bedliner/raptor coat and we're all pretty again.. Would have preferred it last more than a month though. Them's the breaks I suppose.
    • I find it funny that the USA is finding out all this really really weird stuff, and people from the USA are coming here treating it like gospel, yet, all the info on solving those issues is here on these forums for the last 15 odd years... Also, I know how much heat it takes to ignite the hood lining of an R33 skyline. I worked it out myself... It also took a LOT of time, and heat for it to do it... Big single, and I needed to drive the car, so retarded the timing off to "protect it". Yeah, that was a bad move for cruising on a freeway with only 15 degrees of timing on it. That was a lesson I learned around 2009. So that's over 15 odd years ago. Aligning water and oil, that's identical for any turbo engine, it's not Japanese specific. If a shop doesn't know how to make sure the core is rotated the right way, then they shouldn't be touching any turbo engine. That's not a matter of "We haven't had Skylines for that long here"...
    • Sounds like it is rotational in the driveline. CV? Tailshaft CB? Also.....didn't you just pay to have that bit painted and put on the car?
    • Yeah, when I dialled my idle down, given how much time I spent idling at the lights in traffic on my daily commute, the effect on overall fuel consumption was absolutely noticeable.
    • Emissions, fuel consumption, heat, noise, etc. most likely.
