Im assuming you want this for a 180?

Think maybe we loosing sight of what the Q is RB20det cut for $1500 Vs RB25det cut $3000

basically RB20det and $1500 mod money (maybe a high flowed T3 in that)

Vs

Stock RB25det

Either way make sure you get the coresponding engine crossmember and brakes.......

works auto,

you have already kicked my ass, 13.3 vs 13.4 says so. I don't think it would be fair next time cause I've got the s-afc in since last time and you still have a std ecu? or is it re-mapped?

Anyway if you can get it into 12's it should be a good race cause thats where I will be next time down there.

Mr Mayhem,

Sorry mate, I did miss quote there. I agree about the 3L totally.

Ballistic,

Thanks for pointing that out it was very funny. Do you also find faults in movies? you should start a thread on it...No! a whole forum! Wait a minute....your an english teacher aren't you! You'll never make me read the Mayor of Casterbridge, I'll fight you till the last!

hey guys

what kinda estimated power would my car be putting out?

specs are as follows:

HR31 GT Passage (1440kg)

R32 Silver Top RB20det

3" from turbo back exhuast

high flowed R32 RB20det turbo

EMS Dual Sport I 604

Boost cut of 105kpa which about = 14.7psi

stock R32 cooler.. temps sit around 39-41deg

any ideas ??

Thanks

I think what sydneykid was originally saying, is that if you had an RB20 and an RB25 both with RB25 turbo's they would both have similar max power output. The 20's turbo really hurts its performance, but one advantage with a 25 is that you can run bigger turbo which also equals more power.

sumfatchin... The RB20DET uses a small arse turbo.

Slap a R33 Turbo on the RB20DET and at the same boost pressure you are looking at around 15rwkw more.

So 15rwkw more on 221.4hp is around 241hp at the rears.

The RB25DET also has the advantage of running a higher static compression ratio compared to the RB20DET which equals a little bit more power BUT you are unable to run as much boost so really it evens its self out with a RB20DET running 2 psi more on the same turbo compared to a RB25DET running 2 psi less on the same turbo.

    • I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp
    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
