Hi All

After some 'hektic' pinging problems, and 'hektic' blow by my engine finally blew about a week ago.

I dont know how many cylinders are gone but it doesnt go very fast anymore :) haha!

So I ordered in some parts and they all arrived today!!!!

- Neo RB25DET

- Hi-Flowed VL Turbo (I think they are T04's? Correct me if I'm wrong)

- EMS Computer (Will be tuned by V Rigoli)

- Powerdigger Electronic Boost Controller

Already have mods:

- Hybrid 600 x 300 x 76 FMIC

- 3" Exhaust

- Pod Filter

Hoping for somewhere around 200 - 220kw @ the wheels at @ 14psi

good luck with the build....sounds like there could have been cheaper options tho? why the neo engine for example, they could just rebuild what you already had :confused: Same with EMS, why not just use a PowerFC?

I chose the EMS and 34 Engine because I have the means too.

My uncle is owner of Stevens Prestige at Lansvale he had a Neo 'Lying around' the workshop so to speak.

I chose EMS because thats what he recommended, he uses it on his heavily modified GTR, which will be out soon :)

Can you tell me whats wrong (or good) with EMS? (seriously because I just dont know about aftermarket ECU's)

I "know" a guy up here that did a Neo into a 33 and he said it was a nightmare to fit the 33 engine wiring harness to a Neo. I'll admit this guy was no brain surgeon but there is plenty of differences apparently, not just engine but body related as well.

DezertEagle, I asume you don't have the Neo harness? Thats why you chose aftermarket?

Anyway, good luck with it!

Sorry I was talking about the big car his uncles got that will be out soon, he mentions it in post 4

Wow you know about it?!

Yeh I dont know much about cars really haha, but he said he expects like 700kw?

Just know how to drive them and basic things to make them go fast, I just take it to him and he does what he reckons is best..... of course I get 'Family rates' (better then mates rates I guess) thats why I'm doing all this

      HKS stroker kit step 0/1 or HKS GTIII 2530

      Definitely the stroker kit. once you mention you have a RB28 everyone will assume you will flog them and hopefully won't start asking about support mods. Anyone will be too scared to race you, except maybe the RB30 boys

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Just a quick update: I decided to go ahead with the de-cat for now. The exhaust shop inspected the catalytic converter and said it was in good condition. I took a look myself, and it does not appear broken nor clogged. After the de-cat, the car feels more responsive and smoother. The shop also reinstalled the exhaust temperature sensor into the de-cat pipe, and now the warning light no longer comes on, even when driving hard. The only thing that’s bugging me is the tinny, “can-like” sound the exhaust makes now (similar to having a hole in the muffler). The shop suggested that I might need to replace the muffler. I'll have to think on what to do next.

      I want to start upgrading but don't have the budget to drop 15k at once, if i was to do one first which would be better and why?

      Ceramic turbine damage to engine - what did yours do?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yuh. It is very rare for a single turbo to throw ceramic into the engine. Quite common on GTRs. As I posted above. Mine did destroy the O2 sensor on the way out though! Plastic compressor is fine with the temperature. It's not some flimsy PE/PET/PP thermoplastic. It's a thermoset resin with reinforcing material in it (a composite, as posted by @Lithium above). The compressor never sees much more than 100°C because it's never boosting very high. If you boost it high enough to make a lot of temperature, then the turbine will depart the scene and stop the party anyway.

      From what I understand, it's a ceramic turbine and a plastic compressor (not sure how it doesn't melt then lol) I heard the series 2 r34 gtt has a metal turbine but I doubt that. @GTSBoy When you blew your standard neo turbo it didn't cause damage from memory just the turbine ended up in the cat?
