would standard pistons and rods be good for 300rwkw?? i am looking to run a rb30 with stardard bottom end

rb25de head gasket

r32 rb25de head with rb26 valve springs, gtr cams and standard manifold.

what sort of turbo would be best for 260-300rwkw, i am thinking a holset hx35 or a garrett 3040.

does that sound like a good idea. i would like any feed back people have

thanks

it's been mentioned in this thread that the GTRvalve springs can't easily be adapted for the rb25de head.

it would be easier to use the 25det valve springs.

it also been said that with GOOD tuning and supporting mods, keeping boost low, with correct sized turbo, 300rwkw can be achieved using stock na pistons and rods and stock gaskets.

but constant high revs will destroy the stock rods.

not sure about GTR cams in teh 25de head either.

standard manifold is ok.

turbo selection..... I don't know.. not up to scratch with my turbo knowledge in terms of what power the turbo's you've said will produce and at what boost levels.

I think you'd need to be a bit more specific with things like exhaust wheel size and so forth.

Is there a workshop in melbourne that has done the rb31det conversion before that you guys would recommend?

Was going to do most of the work my self but after reading about all the crap people go through with pistons and what not i think i would rather have a warranty.

Id asked this question before.

How does the ECU tell what gear the manual gearbox is in?

The Haltech has boost correction dependant on the gear selected, so i plan to use this to soften the power delivery in 1st gear once boost is wound up.

it seems the "search this thread" option is no longer available.

however, SYDNEYKID had stated that GTR valve springs are not a direct replacement for RB25de heads.

it was due to the lifter in 25 heads not being the same setup as the 26 head.

he mentioned that in his first RB30 build when he used the 25de head from an R32, he changed the valve springs and used 25det valve springs.

maybe he'll see this post and confirm or correct me.

Id asked this question before.

How does the ECU tell what gear the manual gearbox is in?

I have a sensor on 1 front wheel which picks up 5 pulses/revolution. You then calculate how many pulses will occur in 1km and enter this value into the sofware. You work out what each gear ratio equates to in kmh/1000rpm and enter the results plus the required boost correction for each gear and plug this into the software.

The ecu now has a speed reference via the wheel sensor in km, and by using the kmh/1000rpm figures plus the engine rpm it can determine which gear you're in.

    • New or used transmission? Alignment will be the same with engine running or not. If new, i'm presuming it's a clutch release bearing size issue. If used, are you certain it's a CD009/A and not an older CD008 or less? They had known synchro issues. In my opinion, these transmissions should always be purchased new, they're dirt cheap and you avoid dealing with old revisions. 
    • I like your thinking! Looking forward to see how it turns out.
    • You've got yourself a good old game of have fun. That shit is annoying as hell to remove. Thankfully for you, yours is on metal, most of the stuff I take it off is plastic, so typically hear guns are out. I normally end up continually dragging my thumb with pressure over it to get it to peel up. Eucalyptus oil then works well for getting residue and last remnants off.   Edit: plastic scraper might be worth while too. One that'll dig into the foam tape, but not scratch the paint.
    • So I ride and race motorcycles for fun and have always used a van to transport my track weapons. Figured towing a racebike with a skyline would be different and if done right could - "look fully sik" or quite cool for us grown ups lol. Pic of yours truly on two wheels I also have a trailer already kitted out to transport my bikes ...and I have a spare set of rims that match the car that I was going to rebarrel to get deeper dish at some stage but they have just been gathering dust. Sooooooo it is only logical.... Stay tuned !!    
    • If by "flap disc" you meant "chocolate wheel".... then they are OK for getting off stubborn remnants. But not for stuff with bulk depth. If by "flap disc" you meant "abrasive paint f**ker"....
