Im posting this thread for everyone's knowledge on what parts to achieve what horsepower on a RB25DET since ive searched on the forum for PROCAMS and nothing came out.

So here it goes..

Ive waited 3 months for parts and headwork on my Skyline R33 RB25DET.

Currently its in a process of installing all the parts in.. finally.

Parts loaded was :

1. TOMEI PROCAMS 260 degree 10.25mm lift exhaust and intake

2. TOMEI Cam Gears

3. TOMEI 10.25 Lift Type B Valve Springs

4. TOMEI Solid Lifters

5. TOMEI Adjust Shims

6. COMETIC 1.3mm x 2 Layers

7. GARRETT GT35R Ported Shroud .82

8. Top Mount Ex. Manifold

9. TIAL 43mm Wastegate

10. HKS Type R 600x255.6x103 Intercooler

Was getting 192kw on wheels before this with stock internals.

Just a Apexi PFC, HKS 2540 Turbo, HKS Oil Cooler, HKS Intercooler (Type S), Greddy Boost Controller and Minor Upgrades.

Will keep this thread posted once the car is running and dynoed with the new parts installed. Car will be out this week. I hope...

Cheers!

hey guys,

Just got the car this weekend. Car is slightly tuned for road drivability.. Havent got the time to do a full tune atm.

For the solid lifters conversion, its pretty tedious work. Shims have to be added and measured.

Im totally unsure about what CR my car is running. The car started up alright. Nice idle and timing is great. When revving, the sound is awesome!

On higher RPM it sounds sharper, no joke but it sounds close to a Ferrari. =)

Im worried my oil pump will give way one day but will change it soon to accomadate the revs.

The turbine spools great. I just dont know how to put everything together. But everything just sound crazy guys!! The turbine has a pretty much like an aircraft spooling sound.

Hope to get my car tune tommorrow and will post up the numbers soon! Keep watching guys!

Cheers!

I can feel boost coming from 3300 rpm onwards.

No lag, nothing. Its insane to hear the turbo spools and the power is just crazy.

The turbo is a Garrett GT35R with ported shroud. I was worried when i installed the turbo because of lag.

But everything is going on well.

i am looking at doing the cams on my rb25det and cannot find anything at all....so this is really handy cheers mate

hey Krishy,

For Poncams is just plug and play.

I will recommend Poncams. Safe the hassle and money!

what you mean by ported shroud? Im assuming modified comp cover? And this gives hks spooling sound?

  • 3 weeks later...
  • 7 months later...

Did you ever get this tuned??? Am looking into bigger cams and solid lifter conversion at the moment.

Have Tomei 256 cams already. And have just has some issues on the tune with my 25/30 and had a rattle thru the top end after a few power runs @ 8200rpm.

What is the cost for a solid lifter setup???

    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
