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!

get an RB31det... well there's an RB31DETT so I'm guessin you caould get an RB31DET.. and yes its thirty one not thirty... my cuz jus imported one by accident to Sri Lanka (the RB31DETT came in a GTS4 of all things)... he said he'll send me pics when the car arrives.

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

Dave

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.

    • yeah i agree paint match stops it from standing out so much, oh that's actually really good to know i was wondering if it would help with air flow now actually having an outlet in the bonnet. Will have to focus on ducting into and out of the radiator now to make the most of it.
    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
