hi putting up my 32 as ive just finished building it

i got it with a turbo 25 in it off a so called "mate"

then when i did a compression test found out it had a piston with 70psi compression so the game began

decided to go a little different direction than most

also have it for sale

Engine:

RB25DE series 2 with 120000ks

Exhaust:

extractors to high flow 3inch cat to straight thru 3 inch wink.gif

Suspension:

NRG adjustable coilovers

adjustable castor rods

Wheels:

17x9.5 +18 drift teks

painted white with rainbow flec

Modifications:

MICROTECH ltx12 stand alone ecu with hand controller

greddy style front facing plenum

80mm throttle body with s14 throttle cable to suit

turbo injectors

DRIFT fuel pressure reg

TURBOSMART fuel pressure gauge

1 intank fuel pump with 2 external pumps and a surge tank in boot

DRIFT pod filter with hard pipe very short intake

heavy duty clutch

52mm alloy radiator

TOMEI short shift kit

HID head lights

front head lights on toggle switch

battery relocated

turbo timer

digital volt meter

hicas removed

abs removed

s14 brake master and lines

gtst turbo brakes and 5 stud all round as it was a turbo shell

CUSCO 5 point bolt in half cage

slotted front rotors

front strut brace

side skirts and rear pods

recaro copy bucket seats

NARDI steering wheel

MOD PLATED FOR

rb25 engine

rb25 box

bolt in cage

bucket seats

2 seater

surge tank

external fuel pumps

turbo upgrade (from when it was a turbo car)

front mount (from when it was a turbo car)

Estimated Power:

car just made 170hp atw on the dyno with a safe tune with stock exhaust tuner said it should be capable of round 200hp with rev limiter raised and larger exhaust as the stock exhaust was very restrictive it now has extractors and a straight thru 3inch system (tuner recommended 3inch as of the sizeof intake etc)

dyno printout pretty much just goes up in a straight 45 degree angle so is awesome and responsive

and the important thing -chirps into 3rd gear even when changing at about 5000rpm ;)

just some photos taken on my phone sorry for the quality

thanks

Love it... are you keeping it NA? If I was a p plater (in a non turbo p plater state) this is almost exactily what I would drive...

Will you be looking for more power and mid range torque?

Buy the way, this set up would be peeeeeeeerfect for nitrous... Single point, 75hp shot, nice and easy. Perfectly legal to have set up in your car, just cant have it hooked up on the street.

Also the greddy intake manifold has quite short runners. Maybe have a look at getting a spacer made up that bolts inbetween the head and the manifold to lengthen the runners for a little more low to midrange power.

Cheers

Justin

Looking good, looking at doing similar mods to my car eventually.

XRATED he said it's for sale so he's probably keeping it NA until it says I would assume haha.

Is the car in NSW or QLD? How much are you looking at getting for it?

nar i just bought the plates ;)

did all the work on the car with a mate

got it as a 32 with a low compression engine and did the conversion and built it up

it has pretty good power the whole way thru the rev range really

we were thinking maybe a 75 shot but aswell haha

looking at around $12000 as is

cars qld rego

thanks for all the positive comments ppl :)

    • Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?
    • Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card stile AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had not flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).
    • So to summarise, the best thing to do is to move recirc to between turbo and IC, and maf on the crossover pipe. Meaning I'd need a recirc flange, drill a hole in the piping on turbo outlet area. And drill hole on crossover to fit/weld maf sensor? Either that or put the MAF on the turbo inlet right?  Is an aftermarket recirc/blowoff valve recommended? Do currently have family in Japan so could probably bring something back with maybe a cheeky lil SuperAutobacs run?
    • Yep, so far most have said that it looks like corrosion on the wall from piston not moving. Which then has probably damaged the oil rings and caused those vertical marks. The longest the engine was still after the rebuild, was the winter of 2018 - 2019, plus the boat trip to Japan. When I shipped the car, it had normal gas in the tank but before that winter pause, it had E85 in tank.  In any case, even if either one of those was the cause, it happened close to 6 years ago and the car has been driven something like 30 000kms after the fact. Again, apart from the plugs and the dip stick, there is nothing in the way the car runs that would indicate what has been going on in the engine. I am going to consult a shop and ask their opinion, what would be the best approach. I do have some access to a garage I could use to diagnose further myself, but time is very restrictive. Might end up buying another engine that could be used while this one is being remedied. Without pulling the head, it will be impossible to find out if it needs another bore, but here's to hoping a hone would suffice.  Goddamnit, I would really have preferred this not happening.  
    • Boot is going to be replaced eventually. I just wire brushed what I could and rust converted. Then painted in rust kill primer. the spoiler also got repainted and plugs replaced on the ends. The under side of the bonnet is going to be black also, currently white. But red on the top side, same colour code as the silo to begin.
