A friend had a had a cam'd RB25DE making around 140kw at the rear bags with no tricks! Internally standard apart from some nasty camshafts. Could keep up with alot of turbo cars.

The engine eventually broke from being revved past 7000 all the time though. :)

The cheap way out is scavenge rods and slugs from a turbo bottom end as i did with my old s12 silvia, i used a whole assortment other nissan genuine parts, some reground cams and a low cost computer. could rev to 7500+ and 104kw at the wheels... was very proud!

I'd be interested to know also - though my engine is fitted with VVT and it does a pretty good job of upping the power through the rev range.  

Also - what is the idle and low end torque like on your friends cam?

:)

VVT? hehhehe... Its NEO 6 engine mate :P

It's the challenge!:D

I mean, I think it's fair to say that a Turbo'd motor is comparitively "easy" to extract bigger power...

But with N/A, you've got to be a little more "creative"! Especially, if you're going to get the power without resorting to bolting on a turbo...

And, it's a great feeling to beat a turbo'd brother if you're N/A!:):P

    • Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD? 
    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
