thanks for the sticky :(

For your info guys... When I bought my Cobe extractors (In NZ for my GTS25) I was told Cobe do not make different extractors for the RB20DE. The one set of extractors is used for both types of engine... I guess it's a happy medium.

What do you think of the extractors? Good increase in performance? any decrease?

I was pretty sure cookm posted some info on the different size pipe used for RB20 compared to RB25 extractors in the N/A thread but i might be mistaken. i'll confirm with Autopia.

here's that info:

1986-98 Nissan Skyline RB20 2000cc SOHC. 1 1/2" Primary 1 5/8" Secondary D6 234.82

1989-98 Nissan Skyline R32, R33 - RB20, RB25 DOHC. 1 1/2" Primary 1 3/4" Secondary 2" Outlet D12 279.45

so Ryno you were right: they make one set of extractors for the RB20DE and RB25DE, but they do make specific ones for the RB20E (sohc). if anyone has an RB20E (i think these were only in R33's as the shitty base model) you'd better let me know or you'll get the wrong ones!

I already had a 2 1/2 inch exhaust system before I got the extractors fitted, so I didn't notice a major leap in peak power. The big thing you'll notice is the improvement in torque, they make the engine far more flexible. I'm stoked with them, as I wasn't expecting much of an improvement.

When you get them they're painted bright orange, unfortunately after you run it the first time the orange paint flakes off. It's a shame, as I thought the orange pipes looked good sticking out the side of the engine.

sweet yeah i already have 2.5" exhaust as well, but any torque gains i'll be happy with. so i guess your extractors have gone a bit rusty now? i might look into getting them hpc coated or something to stop rust and to keep the heat in...

i wasnt expecting too much from extractors, maybe some more top end and a better sounding exhuast note.

if the torque increase to quite noticable, then that makes it even better!!! and considering the price as well, its a steal !

though i dont like orange=, chrome or black or me but its someting i can live with

I'm in. Ready when you are.

Does anyone have any idea how long they take to fit? Is it something that's pretty straight forward?

Id say its pretty much unbolt the old one, and bolt on the new one.

Can i please get sum info if the extractors come with a new gasket and if the existing system has an O2 sensor on it ? i havent had a look at my extractors under the heat shield yet, i might have to get mine modified cos i have a new flanged CAT and maybe its not a direct fit but never the less i am all for it.

Cheers

:D

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.

    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • 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.
