or even 220kw.

When I get my GTS-t 4door, probably a 94 or 95.

Assuming there are no mods and it has around 60-80 thou.

What is the standard KW of one of these?

What mods would be needed to attain the above?

I have been test driving a few. One thing I noticed is how much difference just an air intake mod makes. (Pod V's Filter box) not to mention that glorious whooshing sound.

Also do any of these mods affect Insurance?

As I am getting a Auto :)

What are your thoughts on stall converters?

I have read alot about the skylines but have not seen any mention of these in skyline circles.

Also, and shoot me for stupid question.

But the turbo boost.

Whats involved in raising it to say 12? much in the way of mods?

What is the Max with stock internals? or best boost for stock car say after a decent exaust and intake?

And is it hard to reset the engine managment sytem.

the RB25DET is undoubtedly one of the best single turbo engines we've ever sat behind. Off-boost torque is strong, but get some load on above about 3000 rpm and she's a real rocket. Torque holds strong until close to the 7000 rpm redline - though note that our test car had been equipped with an aftermarket exhaust system. A short drive will have you believing every one of those 187kW (at 6400 rpm) and 294Nm (at 4800 rpm).

With design similar to the GT-R's RB26DETT engine, we can only assume that the RB25DET is built tough and can handle lot more power. The first step in this direction should be the exhaust and intake. A good 3-inch pipe and a free-flowing cold air intake will up the power output to around 225kW. Note that many second-hand GTS25Ts already come delivered with an exhaust and an aftermarket filter; chances are the exhaust is pretty good, but the intake will likely be an exposed filter sucking hot air. Ditch this and replace it with something that will draw in only cool ambient air.

Following this, the R33's relatively small intercooler should be the next item to get the flick. An aftermarket core or - perhaps - twinning a pair of Nissan coolers will perform nicely, and - don't forget - a GT-R cooler should go pretty well straight in (perhaps bumper mods will be required to make space).

Late model Nissan turbochargers are responsive and hi-tech - but they can't be boosted very hard or else their ceramic turbines will crack. We'd suggest that you could probably take the boost pressure up to around 10-12 psi without needing EFI/injector mods or running into any turbo reliability issues. Together with an upgrade intercooler, you should be looking at around 260-270kW. Serious power.

At around 250kW what would be an estimated 1/4mile be?

ok I'm about to put an rb25det in my car.

I must be crazy when you do the sums.

any way the simple solution is in this order

do exhaust

raise boost 12 psi

fit s-afc

fit front mount inter cooler

pod filters are optional and only make the car louder and could be illegal in your state.

and around 160 -170 rwkw should be avaliable to you. I don't recommend going higher if you get an auto I'm about to convert my auto to manual.

to raise boost you need a bleed valve but also fitting an after market exhaust should raise the boost abit.

stall converters waste alot of fuel and are only recommended if you are regularly drag racing. auto become expesive to fix as well if you drive a manual get one casue resale is also better in manuals.

Ta

I would not mind getting a manual but MRSE will need to be able to drive it if her car is off the road. She only has a Auto license and until the earth freezes over she aint going for a manual one :)

Anyway in my old age 31 :) I have become to lazy anyway and just like to cruise and blow off the odd car at the lights.

Why do you say "I don't recommend going higher if you get an auto "????

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
