Hey!

[Noggeh]

Hey there everyone. Although i own a Silvia (s13) I'm doing the age old RB25DET conversion on it for a Drift Pig. I came here purely for the knowledge that you all you guys possess about the sweet 25's. I plan on going above the 400KW mark, been reading through build threads all morning. I'll be running a 26 crank with rods, ect. any info / tips you guys have are much appreciated! As well as shops you guys use. I've got a few mates with Skylines and i guess you could say that Power FC limiter made me fall in love with the 25.

Cheers Andrew.

An S13 is pretty light, even an RB25 stock engine with bolt ons will give you a responsive 300-350kw which should be more than enough! No need to build an engine!

Spend the money wisely on bolt ons and maintanance and enjoy, but dont limiter bash an RB too long or bad things happen!

Yeah, my mates with skylines are all pushing 300kw at the rears with bolt on's as dailies and they fly. I guess I just want something that isn't all that common and is off it's chops. I've only been on this forum for a few hours and learnt so much. Love it.

Keep cruising around and reading! When mine was making 350kw it was hard to get the power down to the ground through decent 265 tyres.... Now with 390ish it is going to be harder again! Keeping in mind my car is a few hundred kilos heavier than the S13! Get a stock engine with all the good bolt ons and screamer pipe (You said its a drift car) and you will impress your mates lolz

Yeah that is true, but traction isn't really a thing you need at the rears on a drift car. But still a valid point none the less.

To a degree it is i believe, you still want to be accelerating forward and have some form of grip.... Otherwise the run would just be a powerskid, different sport

Power skid the whole track? Challenge accepted.

Lol get back to me when you are ready!

For now, do your research on here! So much good info!

Have a look through my build thread in my sig to show what bolt ons can do to a stock motor!

welcome.

if you want something different, can I suggest a jag 6cyl?

but srsly, as mat has said above, bolt ons and maintenance for what youre going to do with the car.

have a read of his build thread, youll see whats achievable with bolt ons.
