hi everyone i need some information about making my series 1 stagea rb25det too a non turbo, its due too my partner she is on her ps and she really likes the car but cant drive it, so im needing some help on it, how much work does it take, and also what do i need to change? thanks guys

Realistically, you need a rb25de motor,ecu, and all the other niggely conversion bits, exhausts etc. A de turboed rb25det is a horrible thought.

Or shoot for the exemption with the transit authority in your state, but your unlikely to get it. Buy her a $2000 corolla, cause she'll wreck it/ kerb it anyway.

Doesn't work, rego authorities don't recognise your car in it's de-turboed state.

They will deem it to be turbocharged, and fine her accordingly.

Buy her something cheap, safe & reliable, and go from there.

Non turbo - turbo = win. Turbo - non turbo = super phagy time

Seriously though, how long does she have left on her restrictions? Not one to promote illegal activities, but if It's not too long, keep the car stock as a rock and she'll fly under the radar of the police 99% of the time.

If she ever does get pulled over, she can play the ignorance card...

Sorry I've probably been no help at all ¦p

AFAIK the rules have changed now. With the RS4 my P plater got an exemption caus the kw/tonne of an RS4 is below the cut off. So by todays rules she can legally drive an RS4 25DET.

My son is still on Greens in the 32, rb20DET. Has been pulled over a few times and has never been quizzed.

Suggest you ask the local law.

If you still want to go N/A I have a 25G, S1, RB25E, N/A, auto, RWD.

    • That ring thing is interesting how it's holding everything together 
    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
