I just bought a NVCS RB25DE and im going to bolt on all my RB20DET stuff...

my question to all the knowledgable gents out there in skyline land is:

What size are the stock side feed injectors and will my shit run lean if i use a RB20det computer with stock injectors?

also any helpful hints and tips you guys might have RE installing said motor.

CHEERS, ANDYLAUREL

People in forums often take issue with NA+T. You'll find I'll arc up each time and say how wonderful it is!

I wouldn't run stock ECU mind you, especially with the massive change in displacement.

I would also use a turbo more suited to an RB25.

Besides that, no reason why you can't hammer out a good 12-14psi on a good tune. You'll see some good power from that and good response with the high comp.

its been done. stock 25det computer and turbo. use the det injectors. the oil suply for the turbo needs to be taken of the oil pressue switch via a t peice.

the oil return is ok. just fit the turbo drain in the block (theres a bung.

the wiring is abit diferant. to what extent i dont know. but its defenatly diferant

ohh ok. the injectors are gonna be way to small.

I've got a set of RB25DET injectors if you want them.

Oh, and a RB25DET Factory ECU

Maybe install those injectors and ECU, and you're good to go..

let me know.

oh, and you'll definately need a new fuelpump.

i had a performance shop offer to install one of these into my car for $2100 (including swapping everything over and remapping my stock ecu) which i thought sounded pretty decent, but i was only expecting 6 or 7 psi because the compression is pretty high already. Without replacing anything bottom end to decrease compression, what sort of power would you be looking at with your setup? You can pm me if you like, i dun wana get your thread off topic.

Again, I am saying NO to the RB20DET computer with stock injectors on that block. How on earth are its maps going to be correct on a 2.5L engine.

You need what The Mafia is offering if you don't want an after market ECU.

wtf? You can't hook up a RB20 ECU to a RB25 motor...

my god..

Easiest fix - Install RB25 ECU, and injectors. Car would probably start fist go. And won't need to be re mapped...

anyway, don't say I didn't warn you.

Also, wouldn't the RB20 wiring loom be different to the RB25 loom?

or just remap the stock RB20det ecu to cope with the extra demands :(

I'd do the same thing too...an rb25det ecu would probably allow you to run the car but i think the ignition timing maps might be too aggressive for the de+t...

i was thinking that the stock RB20 ecu will be perfect to run the RB25DE because i will be using an RB20 AFM and the RB25de injectors are the same size as 20DET injectors...

hence when the engine is running, the AFM is metering a larger amount of air going into the engine (becasue its 2.5ltrs) and will add fuel accordingly... hence mixtures will be fine (at idle)

before you knock my block off, i understand that anywhere on boost, the 260ccs will not be able to supply sufficient fuel, but i think my metering hypothesis is correct...

I've tried to use an rb20 ecu on my rb25. I was looking to do a remap. The rb20 ecu had the rb25 maps loaded onto it.

IT just wouldn't run. It idled like shit even with the rb25 maps. I remember reading somewhere before in the pfc threads that the ecus have slightly different wiring and require some modification.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
