Here's my situation I've got my 32 witch has been t-boned has rb20det ( 264s, gtx3071 with r33 rear, power fc and all the mods to suit) 252kw (no torque )

I've also got a laurel with a rb25 de. I'm unsure if its worth putting all my parts from my rb20 stuff into the rb25de.

Any advice or help would be much appreciated

What are peoples thoughts on using an rb20det ECU with nistune on a series 2 rb25de+t?

waste of time, just get a Z32 ECU (if you're adamant on using Nistune) if not get an old PowerFC for cheap

Model - A31 cefiro

Engine - RB25DE series 1

Modifications / Parts Used - completely stock un open or modified block and head. garet turbo stainless top mount manifould, sard 650cc injectors, hdi intercooler kit,38mm wastgate

Engine Management Used - Link G4 plug in

Fuel Used - 95 octane and E30 ethanole

Boost Used - 8psi on petrol and 12psi on E30

Dyno Tune Results - 290hp on petrol and 360hp on E30

Misc- when preforming a de+t you have a reasonably strong base engine package to begin with. but the one problem you will always face is detonation due to your compression ratio puls your trying to force feed it more air. to combat this I used ethanol blend witch burns far cooler there for lowering your risk of detonation and the ability to run more boost= more power! I have used and abused this engine package for 3 years now with no issues to the (still) stock standard engine package. to this day I still recommend people to use a plus T engine overr a standard turbo engine

Costs - Parts: $4,000 Labour: $0.00 Tuning: $2,000

Hey guys im currently doing an RB25de NEO +T conversion for my R33 track car. I want to use a forward facing plenum but the intake ports on the head are smaller than the FFP ports. Anyone running a FFP on there RB25de NEO turbo engine? The plans are are a GT3076, ID2000 injectors, microtech, extenal gate on a modded 25det turbo manifold. I really dont want to use the factory 25DE inlet manifold.

Cheers guys

has anyone had any issues fitting a standard RB25det turbo manifold onto an RB25de NEO? Looks as if i need to die grind the holes in the manifold where it bolts up to the studs. Have tried 2 different standard 25 turbo manifolds and same thing on both. Not a big problem, just wondering if anyone has had the same thing happen

MODEL: R32 gts

ENGINE: RB20DE

Mods/ parts: R32 gts ecu and injectors.

EBay intercooler kit. S1 rb25 turbo. Pod filter.

BOOST: 12PSI

FUEL: mostly 98 unleaded.

Standard 92 in country tassie when times are tough lot.

Power: don't know but beats modified V8 commodores and wrx's at powercruise.

Other notes: have now done 30,000kms thrashing the fu#k out of the old girl. Held back on posting a review for a couple of years because I don't want to give bad advice to people.

It's now been tested and all I can say is that a turbo setup on a Na with a standard turbo ecu with turbo injectors has the same reliability as a standard turbo engine.

Will try to get to a dyno soon.

cost: approx. $1000

(turbo,manifold, water and oil lines) $400

(ecu and injectors) $200

(exhaust downpipe, custom intake) $300

(other sh#t) $100

Greetings friends.
I am new to the topic but I see that you master it very well. I have 2 rb20 one aspirated and another turbo, I would like to know if it would be better to invest the money to the aspirate to get more profit or simply mix them.

Anyway, I've been thinking about doing the rb20 of + t but I would like to hear your opinion and recommendations.

Thank you.

Have you got two cars or just two engines? If the latter do up the turbo engine and drop it in. You will still need the ecu and loom and an intercooler of course.

    • Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c
    • Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?
    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......  
    • I get into huffs with people when I suggest the MX5 looks so much better as a coupe than it does as convertible. Pretty sure I don't prefer the convertible version of anything. Good job on the hardtop! The next buyer will appreciate.
    • IMO wrap does have its uses, but like you said, quality wrap, and professional installation, would probably cost want a quality paint job does, but, the paint, if maintained, is basically for life, and much easier to touch up if required  In other news: it's pissing down here, with thunder, lightning and only some small hail "at this stage", luckily all "my" cars are undercover  I've also been contacted by a guy in Newcastle about the SS, he said he will come down next weekend for a look, we'll see how that transpires I guess 🫰
