Rb25de Neo Head Gasket On Rb25det?

[Saruthewhite]

Hello everyone,

planning to swap my r34 skyline rb25de neo with r33 rb25det.

is there any pros in keeping neo engines head gasket or any other parts that can fit in 25det engine?

your opinion is important.

thank you very much

All r33/34 RB25 head gaskets are exactly the same.

Your second line is confusing. You want to take out RB25DE Neo and replace the whole engine with R33 RB25DET correct?

If you have to ask, sell buy gtt.

You going to keep your old head gasket for new old engine?

agree with sell and buy gtt

• iruvyouskyrine

• yes you understood correctly.

p.s.

selling is hard option, because i bought it by mistake, (thought it was gtt), when the pics arrived turned out to be N/A.

its on the way in the ship from japan, and selling it in my country (where few people give a damn about rhd manuals) is close to impossible.

Adding a turbo, injectors and decent ECU to the NA engine would have to be better than dropping in an R33 motor.

OK I see. In that case, gts boys advice is probably the best option.

Will it be better pricewise?

How high are the costs of turboing N/A Rb engine?

[Kinkstaah]

Honestly... I don't know where you are and what you are doing and all that but it could simply be cheaper to bring a GTT in than turbo a N/A lol

If no one gives a damn then turboing a N/A you are on your own out there. You're going to need access to a tuner, ECU, a turbo, manifold and time, potential complications and then other stuff like weaker everything.

I was exactly in your situation (but in Australia) where I didn't know anything as a n00b and had the same thing happen, except mine was a turbo'ed N/A.

Even then, I would say the first thing to do is "sell buy gtt"

If you can't sell the n/a, then maybe just drive it as a regular cheap Japanese commuter car

i live in Georgia (post soviet country where "guilt toy" skyline went once )

Yes, i'm already trying to sell it, if i succeed, ill buy GTT for sure, but the odds of selling it like i mentioned it earlier are pretty much low.

so there's option 1: swap it for rb25det (from r33).

option 2: turboing the rb25de neo.

[Jordy32]

Why not buy an rb25det NEO which matches the car?

Sure it'd be a pain to buy and ship one but if you're importing a car I'm sure you can work it out...

id agree with seeing if you can buy a turbo neo motor from japan cheap enough as the NA neo head doesnt flow as well due to smaller ports if i recall correctly so wouldnt be that awesome compaired to a proper det neo
