RB30DE WITH RB25 5 SPEED

I built this engine in Jan 2004 . RB30E bottom end withRB25DE pistons which gives 10.5 - 1 compression . RB30E extractors modified with new port matched flange plate and 1 x secondary pipe lengthened to suit . It bolts to a standard bolt pattern cat converter .

Serires 1 RB25DE head . V.V.T. connected via oil pressure feed teed from oil pressure sender .

Cams have been reground by Surecam in Sydney 255degrees duration with 8.2 mm lift .

I built the twin throttle body manifold and has RB25DE throttle bodies fitted and 1 x RB25DE air flow meter . The A.F.M. is controlled by an Apexi SAFC 2

Malpassi fuel pressure regulator fitted with50 mm gauge .

RB25DET injectors 370 cc

RB25DE 5 speed gearbox . Steel billet flywheel from the Rodshop in Vic . RB30E turbo clutch and pressure plate and starter motor . Scattershield of 1/4" steel plate around clutch flywheel area .

This is a well sorted combination that idles smoothly at 700 rpm , lots of torque and returns great fuel economy . The oil has been changed every 5000 km and only used Shell synthetic oil ( $ 60 - 5 ltrs )

Comes complete with wiring harness , RB25DE ECU and Apexi SAFC 2 . Also included is a workshop manual for the RB twin cam engines ( cost me about $ 250 ).

I had this setup in my r31 station wagon .

PERFORMANCE

1/4 mile 14.15 @ 97.6 mph 16/8/2006

Max speed 141.18 mph ( 227.2 kmh ) average speed over a timed mile at Lake Gairdner speed trials March 2006 .

In Brisbane and can ship interstate at buyers expense .

If your drivers license restricts you from having a turbo powered car , this could be the engine for you . As you can see by the perfomance figures it would leave a stock rb25det behind ( dont know about neo engines).

Best to phone me on 0413 546380

$3500

Bottom end . I put in new big end bearings , rb25de pistons with new rings , replaced all gaskets and seals . Steel billet flywheel .

I used a Bosch 040 in tank fuel pump .

    • 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.
