If the OP wants to waste his money on going backwards in performance then good on him. Who are we to tell someone how to spend there money, even if it's being wasted.

All we can do is just put palm to face and move on. The real bagging can happen if the practical results don't meet the OP's claims, we hope he'll post up final results regardless.

Ok a bit of an update head was checked by me and was bent it can be straightened. The straightening will increase compression greatly but he 25 block will drop it greatly so I have some numbers to play with :) So far the head is going to cost me about 2500 I plan on spending 2k on the computer and ignition so to come under the 10k mark it leaves me with 5k for block and fuel system. Costs will blow out so I have to play it safe with my money.

The head price is service,porting,machining and a cam.

Hang on.... So the head is warped. If you plan on straightening it by just milling the face, the cam shaft wont fit correctly as the tunnel would also be warped.

If you anticipate the comp will rise significantly by machining the head to straighten it, it would definitively not be consistent across the cylinders, as the warp means more material will be removed from certain areas.

Anyway, all the best with the build, it's certainly something different :)

Already got one bro but the build on that will be epic when I can afford it. The 25/30 will be turbo and forecasts are in the region of 30k for that build the 30/25 will be cheap as possible porting and chamber work will be the big cost.

Far out bro, i think this whole build is rediculous and throwing away money u won't get back, hope u realise a 2JZ is good for 600hp stock internals!! The worlds fastest NA-Turbo supra runs 7.77, thats right with NA Bottom end!! Even a 1JZ VVT will make rediculous power and has higher potential over 33 rb25 and will last longer. U can buy these motors with everything u need for way less.

But if u want most bang 4 ya buck, i'd go rb25 neo - More torque over r33, stronger internals, VVT, newer/lesskm's. Just thrown on a head gasket and youre good to go for some serious HP depending on supporting mods. Like others said it's in you're best interests, both HP and financially to cut youre losses and stop b4 it gets way out of hand!

I dont mind a 30/30 as the single cam can be ported and get good power, but next you'll be saying to scap the E and go with C (Carby) to get more power.

You've turned a RB25DET into a RB25DEBT, cuz b4 it even turns over youll have no money left.

Got any proof of this 7.7 second natro supra? cause I call bullshit. up until recently the turbo and supercharged engines were running those sorts of times, and that's with over 1000hp. there is no way you'll get that sort of power from a natro 2jz. sure they may be using a natro bottom end on the motors, but they will have a massive amount of boost going into it

Correct me if I'm wrong (Can't be f**ked re reading his post) but he did say NA Bottom end, turbo on top...

I am not building a turbo engine. As for bottom ends you have no idea I will be using different pistons as the 25 pistons will drop the compression the head is bent so after machining I hope to see near 12:1.

Con rods will be changed other than that the rest is identical thinking AM forge I beams or peen'd and machined 26 rods"..

OMG all this 4 non turbo? Why would u waste all youre money and youre mates time on this when its gona just suck, i'm only saying this to save u the money because afterwards u will regret it.

Hell u can get r33 turbo manuals for 6 grand on ebay and that includes the car lol. Now in complete stock standard form it will make the same amount of power u will make, but then if it comes with mds and high boost it will blow youre NA out the water

I don't care if this does not make 11ty billion killer wasps I still don't understand what the fuss is over peak power figures ffs. I have no care for dick size contests the engine I will build will be plenty fast for my needs.

Also this is the n/a section of the forum not the turbo section so why are you intent on annoying me with turbo this and turbo that.

Edited by pf.

But why not spend the money doing this with a 25 or 26 head?

The reasons have been mentioned in previous posts but ill give you the cliffs version.

There is no point of having more flow if it is not required the 30 head will be cheaper and provide me with all I need.

All I'm saying is, my motors bigger than yours :whistling:

It's a completely mind fark concept of a project.... I can't wait for the day (and you will have one) after it's all together and paid for and you put it on a dyno and go "oh... ok, maybe i should of listened to those guys on that Internet thingamo" and then (I like this part) your going to look at your little pile of recipts in your hand and quickly do the sums in your head, then swear, and think to yourself "for this money I could of made 3 times this amount of power.... Good thing i don't care about power". Which boggles my mind as that if you don't care about power, why try and build a "performance" engine?

And then this will most likely be my favourite part, when you come back here with figures and we're all going to laugh at you and say we told you so :thumbsup:

Abort mission son, ABORT!

Guys, STFU.

He has a turbo motor he's building, lets see what he can do with this one. He's confident it'll give good gains, and mate our theory is wrong.

So lets let him spend HIS money in PEACE and get us some actual facts.

It sounds like it'll then be a good comparison to Greg's 25/30

Gregs was a 26/30 ;)

Gregs was a 26/30 ;)

I know, and that's why it'll be interesting to compare.

This is going to be pretty much the opposite.

OP Feels this will make the same, if not more power then a 25/30 N/A as he's staying SOHC. So it will be a good comparison.

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
