Mine does 100km/h at 3875rpm.

So the calculation is pretty spot on given the R33's have a higher diff ratio.

Thats pretty insane really thinking that he is making at 3500rpm what I am making at 7000rpm and the funny thing is I also have more lag!

wahahahha.. :)

I noticed the inlet valves are quite large.

They basically fill the while side of the chamber.

Would be hard to fit larger ones unless you were to move away from circle valves.

When I get the RB20DET out i'll take photo's of its head and show compare photo's with the RB25 head.

had to travel 1000+ks but it was worth it,

280hp at wheels with 14psi boost(did see peak 300hp but dyno sheet says 280)

for those who dont know i have bolted the 25t head onto a rb30 na bottom ,im still running the 25t ecu,turbo,injectors,intercooler,etc

mobs are simply K&N pod full 4inch exhaust and elect boost controller

had problems with my original bleed valve making spikes up to 17psi and causing boost cut had to buy and fit a ebc

fuel mixtures were fine, still running rich at full boost though ,obviously the 370cc injectors are up to the task

the only thing that caused concern was the timing having to run at 27deg advance to preform ,this had the dyno mech rather confused ,a few degrees more and detonation was heard

SYDNEY KID/ Anyone do you have any idea why the hybrid has to run so advanced to make power do i need adjustable cam gears?????

all the same ,im very impressed with the cheeap hp, sure beats forged pistons/aftermarket ecu on cost

cheers

Depends on the wheels he is running.

Mine does 3875rpm at 100km/h and at 3500rpm its doing 95km/h.

I just worked it out with a 4.11:1 diff ratio and it is 3500rpm at 100km/h.

This is using stock wheel sizes.

Remember we are going off a Dyno printout here and it won't be accurate.

i.e 100km/h on the rollers isn't going to be 100km/h on the road.

Ahh close enough then.

BTW, changing the wheel size won't do anything to change what your speedo says at any given engine RPM.

I would have thought that the dyno would have been more accurate at telling actual road speed than any car speedo because wheel size would not be an issue (but the speedo would read wrong if you changed wheel size, which would throw out any calculations based on dyno speed)

Wheel size does make a difference what your speedo reads.

If you run a small arsed 13" wheel your spedo is going to be saying that you are doing 130km/h when you are only doing say 90km/h.. .:D

But yer.. I would have also thought that a dyno would have been more accurate BUT.. when I had mine done it was way off with the speeds.

"If you run a small arsed 13" wheel your spedo is going to be saying that you are doing 130km/h when you are only doing say 90km/h.. "

Yeah, but your tacho will still say 3500rpm (or whatever) when your speedo says 100km/h (in the respective gear). You could throw your wheels taishaft and diff into the ocean and that would not change :D

doesn't matter what size wheel you have, as long as the profile tyre is right. You can have a 19" wheel with a 20 profile tyre (if they exist), and that will be the same diameter across from tyre edge to tyre edge as a 15" wheel with a 90 profile... i know these aren't exact, but i'm just using them as an example. If you had a 19" with a 30 profile and a 15" with a 30 profile then the diameter's of each wheel from tyre edge to tyre edge will be different.

Thats true Gijor33.. BUT.. I had 16" 225 50' VR GTS 16's on my VS commodore. When I went to slap the spare on the arse end it was slightly higher. It wasn't much (1.5-2cm's) but it was enough to cause the car to steer left when accelerating and steer right when decelerating.

Who really matches their new wheels up to the standard sizing. Not many if any :D

Hey all.....

First of all, Excellent Thread. BLOODY TERIFFIC MATES.

After reading all of this thread i have come to the conclusion that the series 2 commondoor block is the best for the conversion as it has all the oil/water inlets and returns and what not, for the turbo applaction...

Now my QUESTION is, how do you tell the difference between the series 1 & series 2 blocks????????

I live in brisbane, so some of the wreckers up here are a bit dodgey and would prob try and sell me a series 1 block if they did not have a series 2.....

SOOOO it would be good to be able to tell the difference betwwen the 2.

Thanks in advance people ;) ;) ;):D;)

i am chasing 250rwkw+ to get my boat moving.

I'm wondering how much power the stock pistons(NA VL) will cope with before they explode. Would the strength and longevity/power produced be increased by cryo/heat treating the stock NA pistons?

*i have gone back thru the thread to look for my answer too :D*

I have read the entire thread and would like to ask a few questions:

1. Will the engine fit straight into the engine bay or will there have to be modifications of engine mounts etc etc?

2. If this conversion is so easy and the end result a powerful engine....why didn't Nissan ever develop and include the RB30DET in one of there cars?

Cheers.

Pistons longevity is probably more related to tune than outright power.

I would think that if you can make that sort of power with an RB25DET on stock (9:1 CR) internals, an RB30 with RB25 head and NA pistons would be just as easy to achieve as the CR is a bit lower, therefore less prone to detonation - which is the real enemy of the pistons, not power.

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
