what do you mean by SAFC or PFC im getting a turbo back exhuast next week and the speed cut defencer i was toying with getting a ECU but i should leave that till one of my last mods is that correct?

If i was you i would just go PFC and get it out of the way :P Ecu is a great mod, im wishing i did it before fmic, as it keeps the tune nice a clean and the car wont run overly rich and make less power.

Leaving ECU to last mods is smart as you will save the $$$ in tuning it each time you get a new mod, but you will make more better pwoer with ecu

No offense, but if you want power, sell it and get a turbo line, it's just wasting your money on a n/a trying to get big horsepower. It's so easy with simple mods to really boost the horsepower of a car with forced induction like everyone has said. If you want your skyline to be as fast as your excel was (i can't even type that without laughing out loud), sell it and get a turbo car. The disadvantage of simply adding a turbo kit to your car would be smaller breaks, no LSD, 4 vs 5 wheel studs, higher compression leading to lower boost and the list just goes on.

if i get the compression changed on my enging to say 9.0.1 or what ever it is i need would that be ok? and would any one know what the compression is on the RB25DE? and how would the studs on the wheels make a diff? might be a dum question but yeh i dont see how that can change anything

Ok zer0rez, here a few things you will need to change on your n/a line to run a turbo

1.Compression

2.Piston

3.Injectors

4.ECU

5.Fuel Pump

6.Brakes (GTS have smaller brake)

7.LSD

8.Intake Pipe

9.Intercooler

10.Turbo

11.Exhuast

Or else you can go sell car buy turbo r33 S1 (import one cost you anywhere from 15 to 20k)

or get frontcut of rb25 cost no idea :S

if you managed to get 180kw out of your excel with the stock engine,

you shouldnt have any trouble getting 180kw with a non-turbo skyline...

just put your special capa supercharger/turbo in it :cheers:

seriously though, sell ya car and buy the turbo. Its gonna piss you off when you spend like $2-3k in mods and you still get beaten at the lights by a lancer :)

    • This is the clearest explanation out of those: Page 77: Turn the crankshaft clockwise two full rotations with the tensioner pulley installation bolt in a loose condition. Insert a wrench into the tensioner pulley hexagonal hole to fix the tensioner pulley in place, then tighten the installation bolts. Tightening torque: 43–58 N·m (4.4–5.9 kg·m). The timing belt tension should be at the correct tension. Basically you turn the engine with the tensioner bolt loose, then use the allen key to hold it while you torque it up. And yes after that a good guide is being able to twist it 90o in one of the long free lengths of the belt
    • good choice....I have a set of those and use them all the time including on this job. Plus, no-one wants a damaged nipple
    • Thanks all, went with nismo strengthened belt and all genuine nissan idler and tensioner Question on RB25DET Neo Timing Tensioner: I have a question about the RB25DET Neo timing tensioner. In one of the videos (minute 20 of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17y37BB9xnA and minute 27 of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pb99s2E9xUg), the process suggests tightening the tensioner pulley installation bolt to the specified torque initially, and then loosening it slightly to allow the spring to set the correct tension. Is this the correct approach? The R33 workshop manual on page 74 states: Loosen the tension pulley installation nuts. Insert the wrench into the tensioner pulley hexagonal hole and turn it clockwise to tighten the installation nut temporarily. The way this is written is confusing. Does this mean: Undo the nut, then reduce the tension by turning clockwise? Snug the nut so it stays in position without applying tension to the belt while removing the timing belt? The manual wording makes it sound like the nut will tighten automatically when you turn the tensioner clockwise , which is unclear to me.   Timing Belt Tension Adjustment Process: After loosening the tensioner nut, you turn the engine two full rotations by hand, which should set the correct tension. Once the tension is set, you tighten the bolt to 43 N·m (4.4 kg·m). Before tightening, you need to insert the Allen key into the hexagonal hole to hold the pulley in place while tightening the bolt. In one of the videos, it’s mentioned that you should twist the belt side to side, or turn it slightly to check if the tension is correct. The belt should turn halfway, indicating the right tension. However, I know that twisting or turning the belt is not a good idea. What are your thoughts on this? Finally, how can I ensure the belt isn’t overtightened? I’ve seen many cases where people have overtightened the timing belt.   Manual Excerpts: Page 74: Loosen the tension pulley installation nuts. Insert the wrench into the tensioner pulley hexagonal hole and turn it clockwise to tighten the installation nut temporarily. Remove the timing belt from each pulley. Page 77: Turn the crankshaft clockwise two full rotations with the tensioner pulley installation bolt in a loose condition. Insert a wrench into the tensioner pulley hexagonal hole to fix the tensioner pulley in place, then tighten the installation bolts. Tightening torque: 43–58 N·m (4.4–5.9 kg·m). The timing belt tension should be at the correct tension.
