Well, for what must be about the most maligned Rb engine out there, it does ok. I mean over the standing half mile (where the rwd launch hurts vs AWD) , a Z-Tune on RE55s ran a 17.29sec, my little RB20 did ok to run a 17.98 at Shepparton Airport. A worked 996 Turbo did a 16.32...so its not just a peaky power figure either. For a 2L they can make a good spread of power and the dougy bottom end can be masked as its in a relatively light platform. No way you woudl want to be pulling any more then 1270kgs with only 2L.

There was a blue coloured R32 with stroked RB20 (RB24) that

I have seen for sale in Japan (built for dragracing) that produced

around 550ps.

Here's what looks like another stroked RB20 in a 180sx with a huge

T51R turbo and 600ps. Again the dyno's computer (laptop) has the dyno

chart -

Also there's a white R32 GTS-T with series 2 front bumper

(Australia) that produced around I think was roughly

319rwkw? with stock motor and roughly 358rwkw? with a

strengthened motor, cams, etc at a dyno competition. It

had RB25 gearbox, etc.

Here's another RB20DET in a S14 that produced around

335rwkw (449.8rwhp) -

I'm not 100% sure but I think that S14 dyno run was done

in Australia.

I wonder what a custom twin turbo setup would be like....maybe slap a couple of R34 N1s on running 24psi or something....im getting 322awkw with R34 N1s on 20psi in my GTR, I know the rb26 is probably a fair bit more advanced in terms of head flow and setup to achieve that easily but surely with only .6 of a litre capacity less you could still see some pretty good power figures with good spool time instead of a big single child eating turbo.

What does everyone else think?

Cheers!

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
