RB25DET Cylinder Head

Ported

1.5 - 1.8bar

HKS Fcon Pro-V

Stage 3 HKS Cams 275 deg duration.... bigger than standard lift i dont have the figures with me im working til midnight :huh:

not sure on followers i know valves retainers etc have all been replaced with aftermarket parts.

Internals are trust built, forged pistons rods, aftermarket bearings, prepped and balanced crank etc

No dyno graph unfortunately :laugh: had one from when it was still in japan but its been lost.

Rev Limiter is set at 7200rpm as it sits, it wasnt during the tune (im conservative :blush:)

Hope that helps.

OK, you have a lot of money invested in the RB25 cylinder head, to much to throw it away (and use an RB26 cylinder head). My understanding is that you are going to make an adaptor so that you can run the RB26 throttle bodies, as you need the response. The standard RB26 plenum has proven to be very effective up to ~600 bhp. Over that, the common choice is the Nismo plenum, a number of people (Mines, HKS etc) utilise it to good effect for circuit use.

For drag use there are a number of single throttle body plenums that will do the job, but the huge volume of the plenum and the distances (from the inlet valves to the single throttle body) are not good for throttle response.

:laugh: cheers :laugh:

:3some: cheers :)

Exactly hence why I went for the ITB setup... the only thing that concerns me if I opt for a Nismo Plenum is that I will still be utilizing standard runners. Should I invest the extra money in getting aftermarket runners to suit the plenum or will standard suffice???

Currently talking to ISL33P about runners/plenum anyway might see if he can get them separately.

Standard throttle bodies, with the inlet manifold match ported to the cylinder head = 750 bhp no problems. Way more than you should be using for your purposes.

Here's a question for ya.

Has anybody ever used an RB26 throttle body setup with 6 throttles and all the shiznet on an RB25.

What are the results? Worth the effort?

Just out of curiosity

This is what I am in the process of doing right now, you require an adaptor and apparently it is very worthwhile.

I have a friend (Rick from Adrenalin Motorsports) that runs a 700hp+ RB25 R33 with a T78 and has a similar setup to what I will be running. He swears by it. (pretty sure most of his stuff is aftermarket though)

Will definitely keep you posted on results, I'll also be looking into selling the adaptors in Australia as the only place you can get them is Japan unless you wanna have them custom made which = $$$$ :( If your interested let me know, the first run will be limited numbers only just to guage interest.

  • 3 weeks later...
500hp at the wheels and full boost by 3500rpm are you sure? Is that possible with such a big turbo?

My stock turbo doesnt make full boost until 3000rpm.

It's possible when you buy quality parts and don't skimp on the important things. The car in question is my old R32 and has ATLEAST $25k spent on the motor. The head alone is a joke, and realistically is really is an overkill for a T67.

The results speak from them self however, huge power, huge turbo and full boost at only 3500 - 3800rpm.

Have fun James, with the power you want to achieve you’ll get there, while all the “race kiddies” are still waiting for full boost at 6000rpm.

I can't remember where I saw it but I have seen adaptor plates for the RB26 ITBs to bolt onto the RB25 head... from memory they were made by HKS or Nismo or one of the big jap companies...

...tempting hey Bass :huh:

We have been heavily promoting the PLAZMAMAN range of plenums, not purely because they aesthetically look good, but they are backed by years of knowledge, Research and development, and continuous testing.

We're off to DUBAI in the coming weeks and will be taking several of these plenums with us to show their quality, design to the rest of the world.

Its not just about having a HUGE japanese brand name, its about being able to deliver the goods and in this case the performance and effectiveness of upgrading to an aftermarket plenum

We will have our own adaptors in the coming weeks

Thanks

Will do

I speak to quite a few of the workshops and individuals on MSN, and the amount of money invested into cars over there is crazy.

They are Turbonetics crazy over there aswell, and everything HAS to be BRAND NAME, otherwise, they wont use it simply

    • Who did you have do the installation? I actually know someone who is VERY familiar with the AVS gear. The main point of contact though would be your installer.   Where are you based in NZ?
    • Look, realistically, those are some fairly chunky connectors and wires so it is a reasonably fair bet that that loom was involved in the redirection of the fuel pump and/or ECU/ignition power for the immobiliser. It's also fair to be that the new immobiliser is essentially the same thing as the old one, and so it probably needs the same stuff done to make it do what it has to do. Given that you are talking about a car that no-one else here is familiar with (I mean your exact car) and an alarm that I've never heard of before and so probably not many others are familiar with, and that some wire monkey has been messing with it out of our sight, it seems reasonable that the wire monkey should be fixing this.
    • Wheel alignment immediately. Not "when I get around to it". And further to what Duncan said - you cannot just put camber arms on and shorten them. You will introduce bump steer far in excess of what the car had with stock arms. You need adjustable tension arms and they need to be shortened also. The simplest approach is to shorten them the same % as the stock ones. This will not be correct or optimal, but it will be better than any other guess. The correct way to set the lengths of both arms is to use a properly built/set up bump steer gauge and trial and error the adjustments until you hit the camber you need and want and have minimum bump steer in the range of motion that the wheel is expected to travel. And what Duncan said about toe is also very true. And you cannot change the camber arm without also affecting toe. So when you have adjustable arms on the back of a Skyline, the car either needs to go to a talented wheel aligner (not your local tyre shop dropout), or you need to be able to do this stuff yourself at home. Guess which approach I have taken? I have built my own gear for camber, toe and bump steer measurement and I do all this on the flattest bit of concrete I have, with some shims under the tyres on one side to level the car.
    • Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it. 
    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
