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.

    • Ok glad you clarified on the frenchy’s options , I was worried about if my oem hoses would fit the new compressor or not if I just bought the bracket/compressor kit ,  didn’t realize they also sold a larger full conversion kit. Hmm may just go oem in that case then to make it easy only because I plan to sell this car to upgrade to a 32 GTR or 34 GTT.
    • Right, here's a video of the basic operation at least.  This is what you can expect day to day when you turn the car on and it boots from standby.  The only thing from a media point of view I haven't gotten working is for it to autoplay plexamp when it turns on from standby (it works from cold boot) but that's more of a plexamp problem as it will autoplay other music players.  Also attached is my one stray cable.  It's part of the screen's wiring adapters but there's just nowhere for it to go in my car.  I've just now done a bit of research and found a matching port on a 2010-2014 head unit with BOSE.  Mine has no BOSE so that's that case pretty much closed I think.  Plugging in the Infiniti AC panel basically did nothing for me, so that's a dead end as well.  Next port of call is to mess with this CANBUS module and see what I can find from it.  I found this resource containing the DBC files for a 2010+ G37 : https://github.com/icecube45/Dash_InfinitiG37/blob/master/InfinitiG37.dbc I'll now have something to go from when I try to extract my CANBUS data so I can see if the HVAC Mode, Fan Speed, Temperature, etc. match and also the gear shifter position.  It's a pretty big assumption that it's just mismatched CAN signals but considering all the devices in the CAN network are talking to each other (AC can be fully adjusted just with no info on screen) it might be a safe one.  I will report back WhatsApp Video 2025-02-26 at 12.49.10.mp4
    • Thanks for that Paul.  Do you think if I posted a picture you'd be able to remember where it went? 
    • Sorry Duncan, I didn't get a notification for the replies.  Thanks for responding!  It's a full Android device, but does allow you to use CarPlay/AA as well.  This is the one I bought from NaviRS on AliExpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006368602668.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.111.59aa1802JDzQ0E - the 2K 8G-256G CAM variant but it seems to have gone up by £170 since I bought it!  My purchase was £307.14.   It's not the fastest thing in the world but performs perfectly adequately.  It stays on standby unless I disconnect the battery and let it power down, then it's just a fairly standard Android bootup time from cold.  The DSP Equaliser is very nice and made the standard stereo system sound pretty decent compared to the stock screen.  Perhaps I can take a video of it when I get a sec. It *allegedly* supports the reverse camera, but I'm yet to get that working.  It has options for reverse cam (a camera unit can be bought separately) or 360 cameras (also bought separately).  To be fair it doesn't seem to detect that the shifter was put into reverse but I'm working on a theory about this as well.  At the moment I'm going without which is a bit annoying considering the car is an absolute canal barge but so far I haven't caused any damage I'll grab a picture of the wire I'm missing later today when I can get outside.  My theory, by the by, is that not only is the head unit different, but the CANBUS network has different signals for the different years.  I think this because I have a spare AC panel from a newer Infiniti G37 (as opposed to my Nissan panel) which wouldn't control anything except the volume when I had it wired up with the stock system.  I'm going to throw it back in and see if the screen will respond to it.  I've just ordered an arduino CANBUS module so I can have a look at the signals going around the car and see if I can spot anything.  I'm thinking if I can work out what it's expecting vs what it's getting I might be able to translate and relay the signal back but so far just a theory anyway. I also found this on my travels, so far the only one that specifically matches my car: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002822934280.html?spm=a2g0s.imconversation.0.0.33433e5fgttovi If you look at the picture of the before, it has the card reader slot, and the picture of the head unit is exactly the same as the one pictured in my original post.  I asked if they sell the cables separately but sadly they won't.  I didn't want to just buy this one because it's a super old Android version and only dual core - likely slow as hell. 
    • As above, you did refill the coolant and burp the system before running it again didn't you?
