cereal Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 Just Japanese spares 70-74 Hume Hwy in Lansvale. 9754 2666. Skylark from the forum works there. His name's Rhys.

B-Man Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 What the ????? Dude, Ronin is right, unless you have had a transplant... R32=RB20DET - 2.0L. Taking the tubo off doesn't sound like a good idea to me - the compression will be too low for an NA. Not sure how good that would be for you.

Prefeferably nissan or Jap imports dealer? and also... the date and time of meet up plz DarkZero: unless your car has had an engine conversion it would appear you are incorrect. The R32 GTST uses an RB20DET not RB25DET. Also as Brendan said, taking the turbo off your car to avoid insurance problems is rather foolish. Not only will your car run very very bad but you will loose any resale value you would have had on the car and it will prove to me more hassle than its worth. If you must have NA then surely you would sell your car as is and buy a non turbo. PS: im sure all will be revealed on Saturday night when you pop your bonnet for us. If we find as we suspect and your engine is an RB20DET we may have no choice but to nominate you to pay for all the pizza Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/11043-a-minh-endorsed-teamwestside-cruise-meetup-this-saturday/page/4/#findComment-184335 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 Well, could be possible, I remember hearing somewhere that some very late model r32s came with rb25. May have been the GTS not GTS-T though.

Silver-Arrowz Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 Mr R32 is here! It sounds like a transplant as R32 came in RB/20DET/25DE/26DETT. Taking the turbo will make you slower than R32's with a RB25, cause like others have said, compression is too low, and may play funny games with the ECU.

DarKZer0 Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 hey guys just hyping u on fellas see if u know about skylines lol =)))). Its a RB25DE (no T) but they can have Turbo bolton. so it is a non turbo GTS25 (still 2.5l not 2.0l). hopefully i'll be there to pop up the bonnet but i need to clean the engine its dirty as inside since i just got it. and Im not paying for pizza as this damn car set me broke =( sorry for being a dhead and thanks for ur comments u guys know what u talk about although they do come in turbo but mine aint =) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/11043-a-minh-endorsed-teamwestside-cruise-meetup-this-saturday/page/4/#findComment-184400 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver-Arrowz Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 it's more than just a bolt on cause, now it's too much of a high compression and the ECU will not take too likely to a turbocharger being wacked on. Sorry to say but transplant is the best way to go.

Silver-Arrowz Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 Hehehe... Unfortunately you can't unscrew virginity. But maybe a bottle of chrome cleaning thing-o-majig will help remove the "stains".

DarKZer0 Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 Hey Yeah, transplant is better ofcourse but im only 18 with red ps and no money so that is no option (how much? $3500 for new engine with turbo?) plus insurance on top of everything its a car which gets me from a to b (in style and fair power =)). I need to get a new front grill and badges off wrecker. I'll have a look at the one stated above unless some1 here has spare ones for sale?

Silver-Arrowz Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 It's easier if you sell it off and get a car that's turbo from factory cause insurance companies will consider the car as "modified". You need engineer's certificate, upgrade brakes to match the power and maybe other things. It's a headache you can do without. Talk to the guys at the cruise and they'll tell you the same thing and maybe even more.

DarKZer0 Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 As I said... no performance mods for near future except air filter, exhaust and all that cheapy stuff. Also what does premium unleaded do? any extra performance or is it just healthier for engine. For my R32 2.5l what is better? Unleaded or premium unleaded?

Bigvis. Posted February 26, 2003 Share Posted February 26, 2003 I gotta go with you boyz on this one. R32 is 2 litre unless its had an engine replacement, and i guess theres more work in putting the bigger engine than just pop it in, and why would you bother. You would just by a 33, they are cheap enough...anyway I havent even heard of the 2.5 non turbo thingy (bloody noob I am)i'll sell you mine for 50 grand (good virgin exhausts are pullin this type of cash these days...mark my words) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/11043-a-minh-endorsed-teamwestside-cruise-meetup-this-saturday/page/4/#findComment-184548 Share on other sites More sharing options...
