best thing for you to do mona if all you want is 250 KW is just buy a bare motor and put your bolt ons on it.

Otherwise if you do want more power

$$$$$

depends what you wanna use the car for in the end

Im selling my car cause ive got a new project comming

aiming for the 800Kw mark and in the mid 8 second passes.no point in wasting my car just sell it and start fresh

Interesting. Buster's right. They all have their place and not just from a performance perspective. There are other things to consider. I looked at the rebuild NEO or go RB30 thing recently when mine blew and decided that the rebuild suited me best. I'm happy with my choice and enjoying it.

from what it seems its overly sensitive. this can happen from having the sensor to tight.

the pistons are perfect. not a whisper of detonation

I got this problem with my 3 litre.. it allways knocks on the PFC but we can never hear it at all!!!

I took it to many dyno's and they tuned it with knock levels of around 100 yet there was no detonation because we could not hear it at all.

They told me to ignore the knock level because its not knocking.

My knock sensors used to work ok till the 3 litre went in to maybe we tightend them up too hard ??? how do you know when its in too hard ??? how to you get it right ?

from memory its 15nm. with a lubricated thread. so yeah. just nipped up

basicly the same tension as the ignition coil holders.(the 12mm bolts)

I did not even know about the coil holders not needing to be in tight lol

Got any other usefull information for us ? =)

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.

      There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
