hey just got to 2 questions

number 1

i wars thinking of making a rb20det with 500bhp to start with, becourse not many people have done it, and to see if it can be done. so if you have an idea to what parts i should use it who'd be great. i am going to use a HKS f-con v pro engine management.

number 2

is it even possible to run 2,2 bar of boost on stock internals, becourse there is a man in sweden that clams to run 550bhp and 2,2 bar of boost, here is the specks.

ported head with custom cams.valvs

stainless steel exh.manifold with T70 Turbo

700hp + turbokompressor.

HKS 60mm wastegate with screamer pipe

Jun style polished inlet manifold with 90mm billet trottle

Bosch 1000cc injectors

twin Whalbro fuelpumps

modified fuelsystem

GTR style large intercooler 3# pipes

Link Engine Managment system

water/methanol injected to support the 98oct std pump fuel

when going over 2 bar of boost

HKS ignition amplifier

Nos system

launch control/antilag system

sorry if my spelling is a bit off

Its pointless. A waste of money. It will be lag city like no tomorrow. Youd be better off going RB25. But if you want to do it, then do it.

2.2 Bar on a stock bottom end...you can try it, but dont expect it to last more than a couple of dyno runs!

Ive heard of someone running 2.0 Bar through an SR20. Its crazy!

here is a pretty crazy rb20 built by OHperformance i had on the dyno the other week the revlimit was 9800 and sounded sweet, real credit to the guys.... :) 490hp at the wheels.

it must be mental from 5000rpm to 6,000rpm!! lol it triples it's power in 1,000rpm! does it still make power after 7500rpm?

there is a reason not many people have 700hp turbos on RB20's... did some people go on school holidays early?

T70 turbo sounds like a piece of shit http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Eb...bo-t130247.html

5000rpm of lag does not sound like fun, IMO, if you want that power, RB30DET or a turbo LS1 :)

femno: i know that it is better going for a rb25 but here were i live they have some strict rules about engine swaps, the only way i can do it, is if the people that decide if it is going on the road or not, cant see the difference on the two engines.

They have strict rules about motor swaps...

Yet you can make the motor you have into a 500bhp item?

Sounds like laws there are dumber than here in Victoria, and i thought that wasn't possible.

500bhp would be about as useless as 1000bhp from a OS 3ltr :verymad:

Whats the use of the car? You would get far more enjoyment, speed and so on from a RB20 that has more response.

Such lag that would require would make the car slower

i am going to use the car as a every day car in the summer.

if i remove the cover over the plugs so they cant see on the cover if it is a rb20 or a rb25, but is there any other way they can see that it is a rb25, and not a rb20

If you buy an R33 RB25DET it is easy to pick the difference as the inlet cam gear looks completely different and the inlet manifold is clearly different. Get an R32 RB25DE and turbo it, nobody can tell the difference externally. I was going to put 25 internals in one for a cheater RB20 but am happy with the 340hp at the wheels my std RB20 makes so sold off the engine, rods, cams and pistons etc

300rwkw+ & RB20 in my book does not equal alright for a daily driver :P

250-270rwkw & RB20 IMO is about the limit, otherwise you just hurt resposne too much to enjoy it and you have to drive with your foot up the car everywhere you go

i Dont know Ash, 4 years ao people said anything more then a 2530 and 220rwkws was too much for a std RB20. A new manifold and some different turbo combos are getting thrown at Ben and we will soon know where we land, it will be between 260 and 310rwkws somewhere. Just have to find the combo that works best, cant wait to see if the std 20 can handle the extra power and more importantly revs :D

...walks off and starts singing "anything an RB25 can do, and RB20 can do better... :P

    • Interesting.  Great info. thank you.  Give a few days to get that name plate.  I have a busy life most weeks.  I will be in touch.
    • Strange your posting about this being an issue. Move the harness or change your wheels or run more camber etc. Have the thing not touch the thing so it doesn't destroy the thing.  Short answer, no. Slightly longer answer, the factory fuel gauge is measuring resistance. You need to wire in the FPG fuel level sender into the original factory fuel level sender wiring.  I drew you a picture to explain this one The factory strainer is quite long, reaching down into the bottom of the tank. Safe bet your aftermarket fuel pump has a little baby sized strainer that probably doesn't even point down towards the bottom of the thank.  Solution, move the pump lower down in the tank, or fit a longer strainer, or do both. I did both, I've run my tank down to 5L remaining and the car still drove fine.   
    • S2/3 GT-R is the same as S2 GTS-t The SRS airbags module in under the centre console. The S1/S1.5 GTS-t and S1 GT-R had the module built into the steering wheel. FWIW, I have a S3 GT-R wheel in my S2 GTS-t shit box. Same airbag plug, airbag light goes on then off, meaning all systems are go. S3 GT-R has red stitching, that's about it.
    • Dumb question, but why would it matter if the wheel came off a car with hicas or not?
    • Hey to anyone that reads this, long time lurker first time posting, sorry if it’s been answered before but I’ve been looking for nearly a year now for answers. ive got a 25det neo in an r32 that works awesome when it works (made 500whp on 21psi) but works 45% of the time, 1st issue there’s a harness that runs under the passengers side front fender that my tire keeps rubbing through and one wire seems to power the fuel pump even though I’ve done the relay “mod” some people like to call it, and when it does rub through it kills the car, yes next time I’m with the car I want to take the fender off and try tuck the harness well out of the way but I’d also like to try and by pass this mysterious wire as well lol, also wouldn’t mind getting power from the alternator as I’ve read it supplies the pump with 13v ? But no idea where to run the power wire too. 2nd issue, when replacing my fuel pump and fuel hanger I managed to break the factory fuel level sender leaving me with no fuel gauge, I’d like to buy the fpg fuel level sender for r32/s13 but the plug it comes with confuses me, I’ve got a detschwerks x1 fuel hanger which has light + pump - level + pump + and a ground, I’m no auto sparky but I’m wondering if I can cut the plug off the fuel level sender and wire the negative to the pump negative and wire the positive to the level positive to get a fuel gauge back ?🥴 3rd and final issue, the reason I want a fuel gauge is because whenever it’s below half a tank, it fuel starves like crazy and runs like a bag of shit even without doing a pull or sloshing the fuel round in the tank, I’d also like to fix this but have no idea what’s causing it, I’ve got a dw420 and a dead head fuel setup meaning the fuel is regulated before it gets to the engine, my only theory is that the return line is to close to the pickup on the pump and when it’s at half a tank the return line is causing the pump to cavitate enough to cause fuel pressure issues, that or the pump isn’t low enough in the tank which I would find strange considering I can’t find a single thing online about it, also if ya wondering how I figured out it happens at half a tank without a fuel gauge, I waited until it started happening and went and filled up and the car took exactly 30 litres every time I tested it, if ya managed to read through this mess I appreciate that and any recommendations , cheers
