I’m a friend of Matts I spoke to you at the drags, knowing how much of a thrashing this motor has taken from you at drags, Matt give it abit and Japan?? God knows what. I would say the motor is built very strong but it would have to be wearing out abit as its been through a lot and some people say that 400rwkw is the limit for a RB25

Dude. If I ha to guess, I'd say it had a set of forgies and rods at a minimum.... It was hammered in Jap (should have seen the tyres before compliance), it wasn't really hammered by Andy, it was hammmmmmered by rickards and you've given it a good going over too.... all over the space of 4-5 years... IF it is stock... it's gonna die soon... very very soon.

It will be getting a tune again once i sort out what auto im going to run. Am planning on running about 22psi. Will have to wait and see what happens. :ninja:

So you have decided on an auto then???

Any other plans yet for the new year???

DUDE!!!! bit of gas, trans brake and a set of slicks..... ha ha ha wheel stand time... Hah ah ha ah u should line up the Kamikaze bucket of shit for a grudge race..

Can that car actually back up all the hype about it or is just another shiny overpriced bucket of cow dung???

What plans have you got for XRATED Hallock, i know you would of been thinking about it over there!!!!

yeah there is no way in hell the motor is stock, if it made 399rwkw

Umm... yes it is possible. They just wont last very long!

Ha ha ha ha.... I have a plans yes. It's going to involve a lot of re-engineering tho. It will also make my last efforts look very tame!!! If/when I come back, I'll have 3 or 4 projects on the go..... they're all going to be very unique. Anyone got a cnc machine at home handy??? or a lazer cutter??? metal lathe? plazma cutter? high frequency tig? hoist? milling machine? mandrel pipe bender? dyno? etc etc.... ehh better get back to work...gotta pay for the toys some how.

Its a old topic but i thought i would let you know how the 25 was when i pulled it apart.

It had Tomei pistons, Tomei cams and valve springs and the rest was totally stock. Stock rods, crank.

So the 25 put up a good fight before it lost compression on number 6. It burnt the piston and pinched the ring. The bore looks like brand new as do the other 5.

I now have a 25/30 running the same turbo setup (for now) and a C4 auto with 3800 stall and a 100-175hp nos kit.

Its not tuned yet as ive got a few little issues to sort out and then need to upgrade the ignition. I am looking into M&W igniters and mercury coils.

Someone is interested in the twin turbo setup, so ive started looking for something bigger and better. GT42R :P

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
