Take one for a test drive if you can....there's alot of models available from a 2.5lt NA, 2,5lt Turbo, 2.5lt Diesel, 3lt NA, 3.5lt NA. You will find that the 2.5lt Turbo's is fairly easly to get a hold of.....206kw and 410nm's....so there enough power there. If your really interested you should have a look to see wether you can get a brochure off ebay or something. Inside the car is something again....the Japs get everthing....dvd, tv, sat nav(these all need converting though)....see pictures.

P.S. If you are doing and import make sure you talk to a compliance place before purchase(don't go above a 2003 model...might also find you can only do the 2.5lt turbo)

do a search for autech axis : all will be revealed there :P

there was a recent thread about a 2004 model stagea but i think the issue was the year it was manufactured - since ADR laws changed in late '03 or early '04 or something...

I too would be interested to find out if the VQ25DET powered stageas up to and including 2003 models are elligible for compliance here.

Didn't the VQ25DET come out on the 2001 stageas? Do you know if 2001-2003 models (earlier than 11/03) are compliancable?

Even though the car might be exactly the same under the skin, etc. right through from 2001 through to 2004, the ADR's work on build date, regardless of the fact that the car has not significantly changed at all. This is why they're stuck with trying (and failing) to comply with ADR79 - the rules changed at the beginning of 2004, and emission laws became a lot tougher.

you wouldn't have a pic of the engine bay at all... how does the single turbo work on a v6??? placement of the turbo?

bottom left of engine just in front of passenger footwell

very awkward to extract it's an engine out job as I've just found out

pays to keep an eagle eye on the air filter

      Coolant leak?

      Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.

      Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.

      Hi Everyone I am from West Pennant Hills in NSW. Been too busy until recently to attend to my RB25DET Series 2 engine until recently. I am planning to stick it into the S15 shell at this stage, unless a nice SR20DET turns up... For now, i am going to try and get the RB25 running and working well then decide what gearbox to use. My preference is to retain the SR20DET  6 speed gearbox and tail shaft to retain as much and least modifications as i can avoid. I am an old guy and won't be doing any heavy drifting so i don't need a bullet proof gearbox Does anyone have experience with starting the RB on a stand? I got everything setup as much as I can with the info i can find... endless searching and videos on Youtube I would be great to get some pointers Cheers Songo

      Coolant leak?

      Hey all, Recently have had my s1 r33 gtr serviced and noticed my coolant reservoir was topped up to the max line. Took the car out for 1 yesterday and noticed today the reservoir is completely empty.  Any ideas? Radiator is full
