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

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the 2025 build re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I quite rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
