That GTST is a 2.8 not a 2.5

REgardless of what it is its living proof that a gtr is actually a handicap if you are going for all out 1/4 mile times.

There is simply no need to hump the extra weight around when a properly set up rear wheel drive can give you the whole 9 yards.

As for the ultimate 25...Ultimate for what ?I think I went damn close to building the ultimate allrounder, Just do a solid lifter conversion then build it the same as any rb.

We ended up with 400rwkw on pump with a 35r and full boost by 3800 rpm.

It was an amazing engine and just never stopped pulling all the way to the redline (8500)

I only did one 1/4 mile pass with it for a net of 11.3@125 mph. I have no doubt it had 10's with very little work.

I do like the current 30 i am running but i miss that 25.

Thats what ill be getting made next i think.

3800rpm is impressive for a 35R.

Its all in the head mate. The head was a work of art but sadly it went to god when we dropped a valve spring.

In the process of building another solid converted head for the 30 right now actually.

What cams and exhaust housing on the turbo were you using?

I'm trying to plan out the build on my RB25DET NEO in my 34, with 300-320rwkW being the initial plan with more desired come rebuild time (more revs).

>82 rear housing. tomei cams. 10.25 lift. 260 degree inlet duration, 270 degree exhaust.

Your power figure is very doable. If you want to start going beyond that then you must get the planets to align.

Port match everything from the throttle body to the dump pipe, Fat ignition system etc etc.

Yeah I'm leaning on 3076R with .6 housing, merge collector manifold, 260 Tomei cams in/ex, NissTune, 18 psi and all the supporting fuel and intake/exhaust mods.

My mates car just pulled 330rwkW on 18psi with basically that set up on a Neo so it definitely works.

If I could get a 35/40 on song by 3800rpm, I'd just throw one of them on the car straight away, but without serious head work I don't think it'd have a chance of flowing like that.

You got a build thread FineLine? Would be greatly interested to have a read of it and look at your development path.

I dont have a build thread as such mate. it just evolved over a fairly long period of trial and error.

The real key IMO is the head. RB heads have an inherent flow mismatch between between the inlet and the exhaust. The inlet flows almost twice the exhaust side and anything you can do to even it up helps immensely.

Porting by a competent porter, valve size, cam selection all play a part. Get it right and the rb will ooze power.

    • Seemed to be good when Jeff owned it but they did a shit job on my car, probably worth a think before spending 10's of thousands of dollars where they might be cutting corners
    • Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.
    • DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
    • As per title.. has anyone used so far? Keen to hear results, comparisons. In the market for a new mani for my new turbo. Any issues cracking?
    • Re read everything that has been written about this in this thread.. Let us know if you're still confused.
