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.

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

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???

      Baron's R34 GT-R build thread - car in Japan for 5 years -_-

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.

      Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆

      remote oil cooler hose size, 8,10 or an12?

      Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need.

      Lets play a game - What is causing my oil consumption?

      Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.

      Are RBs worth building reliability wise

      By Hendasto · Posted

      At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
