I was under the impression that the RB25 Neo head flows more CFM than the 26. I'm sure there was something posted in forced induction about it a few months ago. I believe that was when both were heavily ported though, not in standard form.

I think once you start heavily porting something, the differences that were inherently there can almost be said to count for less/nothing. I see a lot of figures being thrown around for the neo head flowing 300+ cfm on the intake, however struggling to have a decent flow rate on the exhaust. I believe this problem is easier to overcome with the 26 head? Feel free to correct if I'm wrong :D

All we can be sure of, is that no matter what head you have, you'll get decent results to a point.

As Dave and Scott here have very well demonstrated.

Finally decided its time to finish off my exhaust. Its long over due. Currently running a 3" system to drift pipes from the cat back. going to run 3.5" instead. Dump/Front pipe is currently 3.5" with a .50" screamer.

Anyone with suggestions of the best combo with tip and mufflers etc?

Car is booked in Thursday for an Exhaust upgrade. Ended up going 3.5" to match the rest of the system. Decided against 4" at this stage to help with clearance levels etc under the car.

I also picked up a 3bay alloy radiator.

Also hunting around for a pair of these. Sill undecided of what spec to go with at this stage.

Next big even locked in Powerplay Brisbane. Its on May 10th. Got a few mates together and we got a garage to make the day even better.. Got a few minor things to sort out on the car between now and then

Step one of Operation: Powerplay Prep begins today.

Car is it getting a new exhaust today. As said a few posts up. Ive been running with a 3.5" dump plus screamer, going down to only a 3" system from the cat back. This isnt ideal on a 600hp car and think its long overdue for an upgrade.

Ended up going with 3.5" straight through with a single tip muffler. Bye bye drift pipes :(

    • Just a follow-up on this topic. From what I can tell so far the rusty residue on the engine block might be unrelated to a coolant leak or maybe just older than anticipated. After driving it from the winter garage to my friend's garage I could not see any new traces of coolant leaking there, but I will test this properly once I was able to fully warm up the car and drive it for a bit. I think I can agree that the whole porous engine block stuff is kind of nonsense, but there is just a silly amount of true, false and half-true information on anything Skyline-related on the internet.
    • hrmmm , not mine , easter plans to pull engine not happening     
    • I removed the IACV, cleaned it and reinstalled.  I found a video on youtube that helped with the whole process, the guy then said the idle needed to be set, so the process was to get the vehicle up to operating temperature, unplug the TPS, set the idle screw in the IACV so the RPMs were around 600, then plug the TPS back in.  After I reinstalled the IACV, the car started (because, it was a cold start), once it warmed up, the car died, I adjusted the idle screw to see if that helped anything, it did not, I had to wait about 3-5 minutes, then the car would start back up. Only to shortly cut out, and only crank.  I loosened the TPS to see if adjusting that would do anything, and when I would rotate the sensor clockwise, there was a humming noise, but it would go away when I got the sensor in the horizontal position.  It only made the hum noise with the key on.  What do you guys think? 20250414_172604.mp4
    • Quick update.  The engine grounding strap was replaced, the engine is now happily running.  Tested the voltage drop before replacing the strap, was about 1.2ish volts down between engine to battery, chassis to battery. With the new grounding strap, pretty much no voltage drop at all.
