yeah wasn't sure they made a neorb20..anyhow to turbo an n/a engine, it is all in the naturally aspirated section (n/a) or search for my thread under green n/a r33, cheers hame

Simple, fit turbo(i would consider an r33 exhaust housing to bring it on a little sooner), fit some rb25det NEO injectors(ive got a set if you are interested) and take it to DR DRIFT, get him to remap the stock ecu to suit the turbo/injectors.

i just wanted to bump this up as its kind of interesting i thought, not looking to do it, just out of interest. there is a slight bit more torque, and with the NEO head no doubt it comes on earlier, but mostly it produces the same power with lower compression ratio (9.5 compared to the 10.2 for the R32 RB20, and 8.5 for the DET) so as far as chucking a turbo on it, it sounds like it could work well.

anyone have any more input?

Thanks guys, I am after the critical details such as ECU tunability? and I want to keep the NEO active if possible, any other info appreciated

i dont see a problem with it, if anything with its CR if it is 9.5:1, then it would be more boost friendly than the normaly turbo bolt ons.

THere isnt anything "active" with the neo side of things, neo is just the style of the head, it has vct but that works the exact same way as in the r33's so no worries there (and you wont need to touch anthing to do with the vct).

where are you from, i didnt think you could comply a r34 with a rb20?

dont blame you for wanting to turbo it though, i've got a rb25de neo in my r34... f*k me its slow as shit haha

      Ticking Sound On Idle - Rb25

      By myrbgivesmeheadaches · Posted

      Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy this is is a hydraulic lifter engine. Yea right i did not realise the lifters were supposed to be compressible while installed. I could push them down but i had to lean almost my while body weight on them.  I have never heard of a lifter/ lifters ticking only at hot idle and getting worse the hotter it gets. I have owned a few jdm cars with noisy lifters. This noise is slightly more subtle, it is more of a sharp gentle metalic tic than the solid and more loud tapping I've heard on lifters. I have used a metal rod, alloy tube, hose and stethoscope and could not find the source of the tick. But it appears to be loudest on the actual engine block behind the exhaust cam gear and next to the oil filter. I had mate (40 year old mechanic) go over it with me and he couldn't find it either..  Could it be a cam seal issue of some sort?  Cheers

      Ticking Sound On Idle - Rb25

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      This seems problematic and unlikely at the same time. Vanilla RB2Xs have hydraulic lifters. They do have "zero" clearance, but only when running with oil pressure inside them. When not running, you should be able to compress them and obtain heaps of clearance. RB26s and Neos have solid lifters. They should have ~0.3mm and ~0.5mm on the inlet and exhaust respectively. If they have zero clearance then bad things are happening. With nothing else being wrong, it would mean that the valves would be held slightly (ever so slightly) open when they are supposed to be closed and it should have all sorts of problems when running, caused by leakage in/out through the valves. Or, zero clearance can indicate severe valve seat recession. None of it is good. Have you used a piece of hose as a stethoscope to try to localise the noise?

      Sorry for reviving an old post, but I'm having the same hot idle tick issue. Did anyone ever find out what it was?  I have checked/ replaced Injectors Coils checked Lifter clerance (is at zero) Checked Cam lobes Replaced exhaust gasket and studs Would appreciate any advice this is driving me nuts

      There's a huge reason manufacturers are tuning in dead flat torque curves... Make them reliable (and more drive able)

      What HVAC actuator is under the steering wheel? Do you mean on the RHS of the centre console, immediately to the left of your shin? If so, then yes, it is probably that one, because that is the mode door actuator, and from what I know, it's still a pain in the arse to replace. I don't know about whole dash out, but you certainly have to rip into the centre console section. I don't know if it's covered in the workshop manual, as I haven't spent much time looking at those parts of it. (and by "the workshop manual, I mean the R32 GTR one, which is the most comprehensive one we have, and it should be similar enough between that and later cars to serve as a guide).
