OK Dyno queens,

Whats the most powerfull RB25DET engined car you have seen in Australia ??

No NOS, water injection, methonol or anything like that - Just good ol' turbo luving ! No RB25 with a RB26 Head - No 3.0 litre bottome ends - Just a nicely worked RB25DET.

No BS stories please - post facts and back them up - turbo sizes, engine specs and all !

Cheers,

I'm just interested Chris - I am still wanting to reach that goal as my view is that anything over 300rwkw for the circuit is a waste (unless awd). > 300rwkw is good for Drags and Dyno queens like me :P

Besides, before I make the move to approx 300rwkw with good response - I wanna see if I can attain a good number for Dyno Queen purposes ;)

What do OBEHVE? JMS R33 do ?? ?? I think I read a mag once where someone got about 346rwkw out of an RB25DET.

Don't get me wrong - it's not what is at the top of the curve, its what is underneath the curve that counts. But hey everyone wants to be a bit of a wanker once in ther lives ;) ha ha ha

I thought there would be some 500+rwkw monsters out there?

if there were no rb26dett and the rb25det were the 'best' engine that nissan offered in the skyline, then i'm sure more people would have pushed their money into the rb25...

(not to say its not capable of these figures because i'm sure it is)

380kW @ rears on sunoco unleaded in the BU5TER.  Std internals and still with RB25DET head.

That was pretty well the start of the end though, I'd be quoting 330rwkw for mine even though I've got 1/2 a dozen higher power figures from very friendly dynos and the one 380rwkw figure which really never made it off the dyno hahaha, I raced it with 330rwkw never raced it or drove it with any more power so 330 it is :)

Mine had stock internals aswell as standard head gasket, but a shit load of bolt ons

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
