How experienced are you building engines?

First time? Based on the incredibly vague first question that's what I assume.

Comp ratio is a compromise relating to many factors. Boost, fuel, cams, head design etc.

Certainly not as simple as what's the best.

Although 500whp isn't that much so stock comp would do it with that turbo and fuel I imagine.

Hi Ben c34 yeah I am new to these engines as I have only owned mazda rotaries (complete different animal). But from the info I have gathered I have been told a stock cylinder head should be ok for what I am doing but I need to upgrade rods and pistons as well as mod crank snout for the longer oil gear. But I am probably going to stick with stock compression ratio.

Thanks

Richard

Yeah I am in the states and the places that sell en are like 45 minutes away. But thanks for all the info. Btw When using the stock head and stock head components what parts are known to have problems and If I did want extra insurance I am assuming just install valves and retainers.

Hi I am having the head reconditioned for sure. Then I was going to clean up cast marks in ports but mainly water jacket holes in cylinder head and I was thinking of running a line from cylinder head to sump. And widen the oil galleries on head and block.

I think a GT3582R will be quite laggy on an RB25 with the std CR on your 93 octane . In the US with things like the 3076 and 3582 HTAs available I think you can do better .

With non standard manifolds the EFRs are probably better again particularly on pump gas because their turbines tend to be larger in relation to their compressors than most other turbo suppliers . You should be able to get 500 from a 7064 or a 7670 with better turbine response/transients than most other makes .

Having less inertia and exhaust restriction is the go IMO .

I was talking specifically about the lifters.

    • OK, so all I can suggest is that - if you have all the parts, and you have all the wiring looms, and you have all the electronic modules, then....it really is just a wiring problem. You likely have a damaged wire, pin, etc, somewhere.
    • Yup, bought this bad boy and hopefully it will be ready to pickup today. Had $5 credit on top of it so it worked out really well!
    • Yeah it is really until until you get a feel for it....then it is easy. Which is no use to you really. I'd buy that torque wrench. One thing from sure, many (most?) tyre shots overtighten the f**k out of wheel nuts, so don't worry if they were tighter when you tried to take them off compared to when you do them up. I've had some crazy tight ones come back from shops, quite apart from the potential damage to the thread, I can't see a smaller person taking the wheel off on the side of the road
    • Hey mate, thread dredging hahah To answer you directly, yes I had my itbs oversized and custom butterflies etc made by EFI Hardware in Sydney back around 2017-2018 if memory serves. My setup had a vast amount of other changes too though, so no direct comparisons unfortunately. i went from oem itbs, HPI manifold and internal gate hks 2835 pro S; to 49mm itbs, cnc port matched Nismo plenum, RB25 Neo lower runner adapter hand port matched, r31house v2 Takoashi MAX equal length twin scroll manifold with twin 38mm tial gates and a FP HTA3076 with 1.01ar twin scroll real hosing. feom power Fc to a link fury wired by 12volt, r32 gtr fuel tank conversion with frenchys twin 460 / surge tabk fuel hanger combo kit, 1659cc injectors, full 4 inch turbo back stainless exhaust, Z34 6 speed, Tomei 2way with 4.3 final drive and a ton of other shit. ive posted elsewhere here with complete run down, but here's a graph from its initial tune with no boost control on, 20psi gate springs only and e85.   7542AE72-DA92-4E0B-8660-B0940FEA7F24.mov
    • On sale mate, $55. Sorted. https://www.supercheapauto.com.au/p/toolpro-toolpro-torque-wrench-1-2-drive/565734.html?utm_content=paidsearch-pmax&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwytS-BhCKARIsAMGJyzqYEnwWmhWf6gxTST_Nz06Gd2VePgyvL7lh6PWrQtbjXTsI6TqSCLEaAuaCEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds
