The motor is complete, minus injectors. It still has the wiring loom, alternator, startor motor, radiator fan and Air Condensor connected to it. This price is with all the items so if you don't need then you could take them off and sell them individually.

I brought it to put in my car but since found a forged motor for a good price so no point in keeping this.

Pick up Chipping Norton (near Liverpool) or I could deliver it anywhere in Sydney for a small fee.

Any questions please PM or call 0413 885 508

Price slightly negotiable.

Thanks

Take a pic of the exhaust side mate :)

Edit. Breather off exhaust cam side feeding into positive air pressure of the intake ? Thats a non-turbo thing.

Thanks for the reply's. Is there any other way to tell if it's a DET other than hump at the rear of the cam cover. I spoke to the guy I brought it of and he said he swapped a few bits and pieces over. Does this sound like bullsh*t or would it be possible to put the N/A cam covers on the turbo model?

I have taken some more pics, any more help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Have to agree; does look like a rb25de.

As stated above, take a pic of the exhaust side to determine if it's a det or a de

DET's have the "hump" at the rear of each cam cover

I tried fitting NA rocker covers to my DET in a half ditched effort to make it look like a rb20. They wouldn't fit. The humps in the rear of the DET one's are there to clear something underneath...

I'd say maybe you've been ripped off, sorry.

all may not be lost....

it does look like a de engine.... but it looks like an oil line has been drilled? one of your pics shows the side of the block with a piece of rag jammed in a hole... pretty sure that would be oil... if it is, check if there is a return line aswell, ( cant see from the pics unless it is hiding behind some of the loom stuff) if there is a return line, as long as someone gets a turbo that is oil cooled, the engine can still be used with a turbo with higher compression like mine :)

gl with it mate! probably better you got the forged engine then eh?

its got non turb roccer covers, r32 engine mounts, some non turbo blocks come with screw-in bungs where u get oil and coolant 4 turbo frm, but has coolant outlet at back under manifold that normaly goes to hard line round back of head and around to turbo (only on turb) non hi-cas p/s pump (so would assume its out of r32 therefor non turb!) lol, dosnt look 2 have vct (cant see verry well) and like he said b4, if you hooked up as is you would have boost pressure goin in to rocker covers and sump etc...

we have made a good amount of power out of non turb 25's b4 tho... just have realy high compression... think its like 10.5:1!!!!

hope that helps man... or may jus make it harder lol :D

    • @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣  
    • I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia. 
    • Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.
    • I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).
    • As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
