is that a 30 bottom end?

also who did the porting job?

Noel, how long have you had your car for? 3-4 Months? just wondering as a new engine isn't a common skyline mod in such a short period of ownership, if you know what I mean.

Its a 25 bottom end mate. crack tested rods and crank, peened, cryoed blueprinted and balanced. Forged gikens.

Porting was done by japanese motor sport in Adelaide. Combustion chambers were modified by some dude from the Adelaide tech college. Must be proud of his work as he signed his name in the head. The head flowed a pupported 920 hp on the bench.

Selecting cams for this engine is going to require some careful thought.

As for why after only 3 months. Dude its been 25 bloody years, not 3 months. I ran wild bent 8 street cars in my younger days and only gave it away to get married and do the kid thing. I bought this engine as a built concern with 4000 kays on board. Subsequent stripping of the engine has revealed all that the builder claimed. Its a gem.

I didnt particularly want to tear down my own engine as it is in absolutely top notch condition. Why destroy a perfectly good engine. It will have a new home in an r32 sometime soon.

any reason why still staying with 2.5ltr capacity? :)

Coz 3L = SHIT!

He'll have all the torque he needs with porting and careful cam selection, combined with correct turbo choice. Plus the RB25 will rev higher and more reliably.

Plus the RB25 has better technology incorporated into it's block design.

hypothetically speaking, what if he put that head on a properly built & strengthened rb30? it'd surely have to make more torque? :)

yes, but it's alot more money than following what has been proven to work to achieve similar results.

whats different betwwen either? only difference i see would be enlarging the oil galleries in the rb30 to spin it to 8k

    • Make sure you use the spherical bushes** on the lower arms, ifyou do that. ** at least, if not the whole replacement lower arm.
    • The tap for coolant flow control will be stuck open. It's not just the air door motor that dies.
    • Not really, but the heater box is pretty simple mechanically....if the door is one way the air bypasses the heater core and if it is the other way it goes through it for warm air.  If you are sure the actuator you moved manually is for the heater mix (there would also be one for output air direction) then I'd take the heater box out and see what is happening (you'll have to regass and re-coolant the systems afterwards) BTW pp724 onwards from the GTR workshop manual cover the system in good detail, it is probably worth checking. I think the IAT sensor might be a problem electrically for getting cold (if you got 24 error code not -24 it thinks the incoming air is -50c) and it covers how to test the sensor (although most likely it is either not plugged in or a wire is damaged)
    • Use the GKTech subframe bush and bring your subframe 10mm closer to the chassis. You'll need to fix an exhaust hanger to suit. One of the best mods I've done.
    • You'd really have to pull it apart further to know, it least you can be confident that the one heading to the back is not connected any more. There was once a ground on the shifter seal mount too, your head unit issue could be that simple
