Top RB20 Club... do you have over 260rwkw?


Recommended Posts

thanks for the info mate...how much dosh would they set me back?

where do i get them from?

as i said in the above post, nengun or any site sponsor or even site sponsors at ns.com as they have some really good deals sometimes.

Mine cost me $1050 3 years ago delivered and that was when the exchange rate sucked. now a set of 6 should cost no more than $900 delivered.

i also have another question, regaurding power fc, does it remove the speed limiter, boost limiter and rev limiter? would i be better off getting a haltek e11 or a power fc?

go the PFC, it does all those functions and more!

I would have bought one but i decided to get the stock computer remapped instead :(

I've found the trick with the pfc is to ensure you set idle with the aac valve solanoid disconnected and set the idle as close to to the pfc set idle rpm. The trick is to get it spot on.

Then... init the pfc (also a must as it doesn't seem to relearn as well afterwards) and let it do the 30minute idle thing with a/c off then a/c on.

The only time I have a slight elevated idle is occasionally with the a/c on, even then it settles to the usual a/c idle rpm within a few secs.

But definitely no hunting.. when I had the motor out I cleaned every single little thing.. throttle body, plenum, aac + the cold start idle control i think thats the ICV or something can't remember exactly.

I must admit I can't remember any idle hunting while the motor was being run in on the stock ecu. Maybe it wasn't the pfc.. maybe the cleaning?!?

Oops. Sorry to hear. Out of interest what clutch are you running, kms on the box and what fluid were you running?

Also how hard are you on the box, do you clutch the thing mid corner, burnouts, flat changes etc etc???

sky30 with his 300rwkw monster has gone through quite a few rb20det box's. BUT it is a 3ltr and its torque that kills gearbox's not power.

Third gear is appears to be the one to go..

No hard changes, mid way accelerating through third it goes BANG!

9 puck brass button clutch... box is unknown kms cause of man conversion and i was running redline oil

im very hard on the box, i clutch mid corners, i drop 2nd a lot in the dry from standstill... decently fast changes not quiet flat changes but close

box held up for a full year of abuse with around 300rwhp but finally gave up on me... im actually quiet impressed that it lasted this long. just popped now cause boost has been raised and intake pipe which was collapsing has been fixed. like the day before it happened so im hoping this isnt too regualr occurance

if you speak to R32-Gts (simon) on these forums, he has broken so many rb20 boxes its a joke

thinking of getting a spare box cryogenically treated and shot peened, i cant be bothered forking out on a RB25 item

This is my car

29.jpg

and as i'm sure you can guess it's got an rb20det in it

just got it back from the tunners the other day and it's got 241.3 rwkw with no real power loss right up to 7500rpm.

It made 253.8 rwkw but was runnin a little lean 12.5:1 so we tuned it back to a safe point .

i know it's not really 260rwkw but hey it's got 322rwhp so i thought i'd post it up.

By the way roy can you give me the formula to convert speed to rpm

Cheers

anthony

    • So next year I am looking at upgrading from my VE SS bomadore ute to something more refined.  I wanted to stick with a V8 but not anything German or Australian, either a coupe or a sedan. So if I wanted anything newish that limited my options to either the Lexus RCF which I quite like. But with the price they demand and a kid on the way a 2 door coupe is probably not going to be the best idea. The next best thing would be the ISF but the newest models are 2014 and commanding over 60k and even the older 2008 models in ok condition starting around 35k is kind of bullshit. So I figured if I could not have the noise I could perhaps make do with easy power. Enter the infinity Q50 or Skyline equivalent. The price difference between the 300 and 400hp models seems a bit crazy. Right now there is 300hp Q50 one on carsales from a dealer with 61km for 27k drive away. If I wanted to get a 400hp Red or 400R car the prices seem to start at 43k From my limited research it seems that the only differences are that the 400r/Red Red runs more boost and a more aggressive tune. There are are turbine speed sensors on the turbos. Has 2 pumps for the water to air intercooler. Runs an engine oil cooler. I'm guessing that the exterior trims might look a little more sporty as well. I had a lazy look for upgrades to bridge the gap on z1motorsports They have kits that upgrade the water to air heat exchanger as well as the coolant pump which should give a non Red/400r better intercooling temps than the stock Red/400r. I added an engine oil cooler with a thermostat as well to try and make things as close as possible. Obviously the ECU is going to need a tickle. Having not done much in the way of research they also sell a ECU flashing tool with pre loaded tunes that are supposed to boost the non Red/400R by 100hp which adds 1k USD to the cost. The total cost of the parts @ the current time including shipping and taxes worked out to be $4350 AUD. Personally I would rather get the car tuned on a dyno which would probably add more cost Assuming the worst that you got a workshop to install the new parts I would guess no more than 5 hours would be required in the worst case @ 5 x $150 per hour = $750 So the total cost could be around $5100 So for easy number 5k + 27K = 32k I guess that would leave some change left over to swap out the open diff and fit a LSD Any thoughts?      
    • Right, not sure why I thought it to be a lean spike. It might be fixable with modern card-style hot film MAFs which have some design features to avoid counting reversion flow but I've never tried it myself.
    • I did not realise this, I'll contribute more and earn my stripes and retry later. 
    • I'm only going to hassle you for posting links to images. It's against my policy to click links that could be some nasty payload. Sadly, you need to make 9 more posts before you can just stick the images directly in a post, unless @PranK sees this and bends the rule for you.
    • Hello,new to the group, I bought a R32 from auction recently, wondering if anyone knows the cars history, seems to have the usual go fast bits on it, plan is to do an engine swap- add 2 extra cylinders and 1 extra turbo. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/i4rjmlzubjbwjtguh6f4s/IMG20241011140744.jpg?rlkey=q0lumm251377vknbqktfwrycq&st=7scvwx4e&dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ro24qmwzlczzlfsr4y05x/Screenshot_2024-10-10-10-49-23-90_9a2f5bb2149dae94cd1e190effc09b33.jpg?rlkey=oyguh26ttshlf04ccp48odf4v&st=xloae97b&dl=0   New to forums and posting pics, if links don't work, take it easy on me, 42yrs old and I tune carburettors!!
