r32 rb25de head on the existing rb25 block and transfer all the existing rb20 stuff over to the new head, injectors, manifolds, ignition system etc. except use the rb25 turbo you talking about having.

rb25de head: ~$1000

GT-R valve springs: ~$100

Head Gasket: ~$500

That's assuming the rb25 bottom end is ok

How much did you pay for it? $2000?

You get what you pay for buddy, I hope you disclose all this when you go to on-sell the car to some poor unsuspecting person.

Nope.. because the job will be done properly this time.. :banana:

With proper parts.. and tools.. So there is no need to hide it.. the will be done right this time..

Weetbix...........absolutely no taste............Cocoa Pops or Froot Loops at least.

Some shops get customers that bring in a wheelbarrow full of bits and peices and say 'Build me a car!'.

The shop says 'No way', so the moron wheels his barrow to the next shop, eventually someone will say OK.

To be fair, it happens with mod parts as well, some shops will sell you anything, other shops try to tell you what will work and what is a waste of $$$$.

This was taken out from cylinder 1

The diameter of the pison is 85.95mm

The diameter of the bore is 86.05mm (standard bore is 86.0 - somone has been playing with toys they shouldnt of been!)

On the face of the piston is has imprinted "STD" and a big "1" in the middle. Mean anything?

the question I have is..

are these forgies?

What brand?

Id say, go and get the bores taken out .5mm over standard. Pretty sure every piston manufacturer has that oversize eg. ACL, Aries, HKS, CP, JE etc etc

Prices are average around 1200-1400 bucks for pistons and rings.

Rebore would be around $300ish

Getting Pistons fitted to Rods - Around $200

Hope you find this useful

It's 0.1mm difference! - you have to have some clearance between the piston and bore. The spec for bore is nominal - there will be some manufacturing variations.

True.. of MAX .05 (according to the workshop manual)

So the pistons would of been fine if they didnt f*ck around with the bore :) Dodgy deadshits!

there defiantly forgies. The piston you have are sold by precision performance. they retail for $1500. they are some chinese brand but dont be to worried there no to bad really. these are mine that we put in rb30's for a cheaper optioned rebuild. Just put it all back together and drive it, as lond as there not damaged it will be sweet. cheers

    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
    • If there's oil in with the clutch, I hope it finds its way out even if that hole has a cover/grommet 😛 I don't want oil near my cars clutch! 😛 Interested to hear the answer about covering it, I'm assuming a bung for a gearbox from another car that has a grommet to suit.
