After years of delays hold ups, lack of motivation... I Got the Engine done and took the old girl where she belongs, back to the track. 95% off all my research was on here trawling the forums for engine build info. Ive got vids on all the rebuild including every failure along the way but it was all worth it because.... well look below i's awesome 380RWHP on 14psi running her in, can't wait to turn her up.

Hey mate, great vid. How do you get 380 RWHP on 14 psi? I am running an RB256DET with same RWHP but at 20 psi.

Can you tell me what you have done to the engine as mine is pretty standard apart from forged internals, balance and bigger injectors with a Nistune board and LM TD06/25G turbo on a standard manifold.

Thanks.

GTX-3076
10.5:1 compression

E85

262 tomie cams

Hand ported head

VCT

Custom 6boost style mani

3.5 inch zauzt

690nm peak torque

And it's fresh obviously. I need to do a comp test now it's run it.

More supporting stuff but those are the power makers.

All the build detail is on the channel

OK now I see why thanks. Yes, should be a bullet once 20 psi dialled in.

I'll have to be honest, I winged it on that lol. But head and block were virgin just got a skim for the MLS gasket and sent it. I did hand rotate her, clear is clear.

That's not true mate, clear by hand vs at 7000rpm are 2 wildly different things!

Yes that's true mate. but still it works. And there was a silly timing issue where if it were close it would have kissed the valves, so I'm pretty confident it's okay. I might have gotten lucky, I might have measured the piston height. It was that long ago when I did it I can't honestly recll, but I remember not doing much about it, and not doing it right if I did anything.

Hillclimb looks great. Much better than what we have here in NSW. Where is it located?

    • I'm confused. You said you want to "remove the clear coat from most panels" but it sounds like you are actually doing a full respray? Few random things to add -  If you chase the blistered paint with 120 grit, I can almost guarantee you'll chase it down to bare metal (that's fine). But if you paint the car from here, you'll have nice little indents where ever the blistered paint was. The new paint won't magically level out the low areas, you need to fill them. Which leads me to the main point I wanted to add, make sure the whole car is flat before you paint it. All those areas with blistered paint you sanded out, make sure to fill them and triple check they are flat with a block guide coat. I'd also check the whole car is flat with a large block and guide coat but yeah up to you if you want to go that far.   
    • 300hp (225kw) is barely outside the standard turbo's range with a bit of extra boost in it (200ish). If you are going to change the turbo you should aim for 250-300kw (330-400hp) to make the expense worthwhile
    • A couple of things, firstly omg that turbo is expensive! $3,000 USD for dinosaur technology is robbery. You could buy a G series turbo and have a good amount of change instead.  If you want a good budget option, have a look here - https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/ If you are keen to spend more, have look at the modern turbos, Garrett G series, Borgwarner EFR, etc. Have a look at the RB25 dyno results thread for inspiration.  If you upgrade your turbo to something that will support the 300hp you want and only "probably" have Haltech ECU, your car will only "probably" run. Actually, no it won't run. You are going to need the ECU and injectors at the time you do the turbo upgrade.  No thoughts on "this much boost" as you didn't say how much boost that actually is. Having said that, plenty of unopened RB25's making even more power then what you are chasing.   
    • I'm looking for a direct bolt on turbo upgrade for my 93 R33 GTST.  Anyone have experience with this Greddy T620Z turbo upgrade? I'd like to be able to run about 300hp to the rear wheels without putting too much strain on the turbo. I do daily drive the car.  Pretty stock car with basic bolt ons (exhaust outlet, down pipe, high flow cat and catback exhaust along with intake and FMIC).  I'l probably have a Haltech plug n play on the car before installing the turbo. https://www.greddy.com/products/turbo-upgrade-ecr33-er34-t620z-rb25-11520057   Also, any thought on this much boost on a 30 year old motor with 250,000KMs?  Engine feels/sounds strong for what it's worth.   Thanks you in advance!
