hi.all the posts and info i've read usually on say how to fit the r33 rb25de/det and rb26 heads on the rb30 but whats involved fitting the rb25de/det heads.do all oil and water lines line up.i've read the neo heads ccs' are smaller then the r33 rb25 heads.what comp ratio will it give with the stock rb30 pistons.if it bolts straight up as the rb25 with the the vct and front water gallery mods can i use the stock rb30 pistons.sorry for all the questions

They have 10-12cc smaller chamber, it is pretty much the same as putting a vct head on, make sure you get the right pistons to suit or your comp will be too high for turbo

only oil line that doesn't line up is the vct feed, have it welded as grub screwing it will leak

I personally used Mahle 8.5:1 Rb30 pistons from the US. shaved the block 20thou to get a 0 deck height. The head was skimmed to make sure it was flat and using a standard nissan head gasket and to my knowledge I don't have any issues with excess comp and pulls like a freight train in it's midrange (I haven't given it a good hiding since it's only street tuned to about 5krpm)

Theres are a few differences, with the head chamber being smaller as mentioned above..

I have my head neo cc'd and each chamber came in at 53ccs, so if you used the "normal" pistons in a rb25/30 then the comp ratio would go through the roof.

I've purchased ACL RB30ET pistons with the -4.5cc dish in the piston which is just an off the shelf item. Based on my calc, with a bore of 86.5mm, 1.1m headgasket, 0 deck height (i.e. shave to block by 20thou) you get a comp ratio of 8.8:1 - which is pretty spot on in my books.

Also the VCT feed is definitely different and you have to use the drill/tap method for the oil feed at the front of the head for it to work again. Just make sure you have it grub screwed/welded to block it off as mentioned above.

Other than those two, everthing else should bolt straight up as a normal rb25 head:)

thanks for the replies guys.im busy gathering as much info as possible.starting my rb25/30 build in the new year.so if you use the stock rb30 pistons would the comp be good for a n/a motor then.one more question.can sr20 and/or vg30dett rod bolts be used as an upgrade for standard rb30 rod bolts.

If this is a budget build then i recommend to do a bit more research and save a bit more coin to do the job properly the first time, with using all the right parts

Links below, 1 is a tutorial i wrote up to give the basic understanding of engine internals

2nd is a link to the tutorial section, there is alot of useful information there other members have written up

3rd is the members project threads, look what others have done and see what ideas you can use or adapt things they've done for your intentions

      WA PITS: Am I screwed?

      By Butters · Posted

      I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k .

      WA PITS: Am I screwed?

      Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?

      100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!

      ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
