You would get a better response if you posted in the Vic section.

You can try a number of places, from Creatd, Bresciani, Racepace, Nizpro, High Torque, RE Customs, Chasers etc.

What sort of power and boost are you chasing? A std RB20 can comfortably handle 250rwkws. If you want an engine built i personally would talk to either Racepace, Nizpro or RE Customs. From what i can see they have a large range and number of cars involved in club level motorsports. So what they learn on these cars carries over to all the engines they build

People say that all the time. But before going too far down that path its best to read the Vic Roads website with regards to what is required if you deceide to put an RB25 into your R32 :P

yeh but as if the car would be legal anyway... that said it would be a pain if they picked up on it and made him swap back.

im an rb20 fan but i hate seeing people spend money on the internals, you have proved it yourself roy you just don't need to do it.

but if he absolutely must spend 5k on a 20 rebuild then i think he should seriously consider a 25.

yeh but as if the car would be legal anyway... that said it would be a pain if they picked up on it and made him swap back.

Yeh the problem is though when you change engines you need to chamnge the engine number on your rego papers, which means an inspection at the local motor registry :cheers: If you mod the RB20 then the numebrs match up, even if the thing has so many mods its equally as illegal. I guess you are not inviting trouble by havign to take your car to them.

As for alink...if you hunt around the Vic roads website there is actualy some clear and useful information on it all

    • Yeah one of the first things I out in when I started having catch can filling up issues. Still prefer to empty 1-2 times a track day rather than every session
    • You'll find this link is probably more useful  Performance Turbochargers - Garrett - G GT GTX GTW Series Turbo TBG G35 1150 map may not even get added to my list depending on how it looks, the G35 1050 already is a mixed bag for making the numbers you would expect from the compressor map due to mismatch - I don't know how another 10lb/min of compressor flow is going to make that any better.   I've left out others for similar reasons as it's already getting quite big.   In terms of Precision, provide me with legit compressor maps for them and I'll do my thing   I'll add some more of the newer Xona Rotor options are they're pretty boss, I'd take a 68mm Xona over a G35 "1150" any day of the week - or Precision for that matter.
    • Ahh got it. Well maybe install a drain for the catch can somewhere down low and accessible like a wheel well too....
    • Before you blow your car up, have you checked you've made all the correct modifications to the wiring if you're still using the RB20DE loom?   Some things to look at: The pin used for the map sensor on the RB25DET, is the same pin used on the RB20DE for the Ring Gear Crankshaft Position Sensor, no idea what you've got it plugged into now. The turbo pressure control valve solenoid you're talking about on the RB25DET, the same pin is used for the Variable Air Intake Control Valve on the RB20DE.   The factory manual has the wiring pinouts in it for you to check everything. It also has the diagnostics process to read codes out. In addition, there's a great table that shows what sensors and what actuators not functioning will relate to which signals. And Nissan confirm the as everyone else has from experience, the Solenoid being disconnected won't cause a fuel cut. However, the turbo pressure sensor being missing / wrong, WILL cause a fuel cut. https://www.nicoclub.com/service-manual?fsm=Skyline%2FR34-Workshop-Manual-English.pdf
    • I've been hunting info on the G Series II - this is best I have found so far(Link below). Still waiting on the G35-1150 comp map, kind of very keen   So how do we go about getting precision on that little table of yours ?   https://turbosbytm.com/sites/default/files/product/technical-info/Garrett-G-Series-II-Product_Flyer 25 30 35_1.pdf
