was running the rb20 mounting brackets, cross member and mounts and motor was sitting higher than it is at the moment so that a no go...elongating holes may be the option

yeah if you could find out that would be good

range rover mounts... havent hear of that one before.. worth a shot... so will they bolt up to the 25 mounting brackets and cross member?

i am using the 25 engine mounts, 25 mount brackets and 25 cross member...

na not yet but more concerned about bringing the motor down lower than just for the sake of throwing on a strut brace. only using the strut brace as a guide

Hi all... sorry if this topic has been covered but had a quick search and nothing popped up. so i have had the RB25 in the car for a while and the motor is sitting fair bit higher than the RB20. Have swapped to an rb25 cross member and mounts and still sits high, cant get strut brace on, bonnet has been raised at the rear prior to conversion so it still closes.. any suggestions on how to drop the motor as i heard 25 cross member should sort it out. cheers Brenton

managed to get 180 out of my stock 20 gotta love a healthy motor Got my Nisstune from UNIgroup engineering if yor in their area... Yavuz is a fantastic tuner and great to deal with

my set up in teh 20 was: nisstune ECU walbro pump sard ful reg HSD HR coilovers- best bang for your buck and wouldnt get anything else R33 lower control arms Tien super lock tie rods & rack spacers adjustable camber arms tein castor arms shimmed diff whiteline sway bars and strut braces.. thats all i can remember but was a great set up and even with the 20 was more than ok doing OP South circuit.. ran outta steam a lil bit but was prefect to learn on. RB20s are a good motor. just lack a lil bit of torque which helps but are far far from undriftable. the rb20 power FC can't be used on a 25... personally the only reson i went for the power FC in the 25 is becase i couldnt be stuffed finding a z32 cmputer to do the nisstune. seemed like a lot of stufing around at the time. again bang for your buck i would spend the money on the Cuscos... have used HSDs for years and bounced them off countless ripple strps and they have taken it with a smile.

lil bit more than 250kw right there lol 30 conversion can be awesome though.. ryan easton has this set up in his 31 and i think running a slightly smaller turbo... but great responsive motor when matched with the right turbo

hey mate have owned 2 r32s both drift cars... started with a stock 20 like your just with a nisstune ecu, fuel pump and suspension work.. car was great to learn in and couldnt have asked for anything better. great platform to begin with. I honestly have no idea of your driving experience but as far as learning to skid i would honestly say you are far from needing 250-300kw. learn on the 20, thrash the guts outta it until it blows then drop in a 25 my second 32 which i still have came with the 20 in it again but with HKS turbo etc and around 220kw... short story was the head warped... went down the same road of questioning as you and am currently building the 25 which i dropped in. Have had it tuned and stock with a fuel pump is running around the 200kw mark which is great. good responsive motor and plenty of torque. spent way too much on suspension but best money i have ever spent oh and running an exedy clutch.. unsure of part number though, Saber front mount and 52mm radiator with thermo fan replacing A/C fan and stock clutch fan for safety as long as a 25? row oil cooler (overkill but necessary) I have decided to go with either the HKS2835 or GT-RS (or garrett equivelant), 256 cams,splitfire coilpacks, S15 injectors, bosch fuel pumps and surge tank, stock manifold, contemplating a plazmaman intake manifold (forward facing), power FC, nismo fuel reg and am running the stock airbox coz i dont want to be defected .... my power goal is around the 250kw mark, would be unhappy with a lil more but really not needed. hope what i have offered gives you some insight or help.... feel free to shoot me a pm and i can let you know how i am going with stuff as i go. have almost got all my goodies so should be putting it all together shortly once i get hold of a turbo.... and fix the damage the old man caused by backing the trailer into my car

sizes?

not bad man... how u figure out that would fit? or was there a bit of work to be done

looks good mate.. where did you get it from?

wow thats cheap... if only i needed a stock turbo... good luck with sale

hey mate how much for the front bar? are you willing to post to sydney?

may aswell remind people 32s need something lol

bump

PFC sold to me

http://justjap.com/store/product.php?produ...=294&page=1 thats what i saw.... 2800 not bad..

^^ exactly why i wanted a bit more info

read the hypergear hiflow thread.. was hoping to get info from people other than sponsored drivers or salespeople...

link didnt work scott. GTRS is $4500 new.... Garrett turbos are under $2000 new so mildly different in price. been looking at GCG vs Hypergear turbos... opinions?

from what i have heard/read you are able to get a garret T3 flange as an option.. HKS turbo is slightly outta the price range... unless you happen to know of one going cheap

chasing a turbo for my 25... looking for good response and around the 250ish mark. have searched and read up... for 2 days and looking into HighFlowed 33 turbo, Garrett 2860Rs-10, or 2871. curious on other people opinions but am really trying to keep full boost below 3200.. from what i have read the 30 series are a lil too laggy for my liking.. bear in mind i am chasing response and not huge power. car will be running power fc, z32AFM, bosch 040 pump, straight 3inch pipes, 2way 4.1 ratio. whats around??

hey all i am chasing a turbo for my 25... looking for good response and around the 250ish mark. willing to look at other options but from what i can tell teh above options are best bang for ya buck.. whats around?? cheers Brenton
