The story so far…

I currently own an 86 Hr31 coupe, sporting a RB20DET NICS. Purchased back in 05.

The poor old NICS is a solid reliable runner, I couldn’t fault this engine. Reliability was a major factor for me and I found this engine was great,

Serviced myself. I stood steadfast that it would be maintained un modified. I loved the car for what it was, even choked by the tiny turbo.

Now that my daily driver is a mighty corolla, the Skyline is enjoying retirement and some needed surgery.

The surgery;

Turf the old and in with the hybrid Rb25/30,

Ok so this is what I have so far

1 x Rb25DET out of a S2 R33 1996

1 X Rb30e out of a S3 R31 1990

What I had envisioned was to run the Rb25-30 NA. What I want is more torque, throttle response and a soundtrack from the NA out the back!

Reasons for not going turbo, $$$$$$ and unusable power for a car that doesn’t hit the track, drift or drag.

    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
    • Run some injector cleaner through it I had a similar issue that plagued me for months, even tried replacing the cat. If one or more injectors are blocked up the ecu sees ping so pulls timing and makes the tune rich overall, you'll see black smoke coming out of the exhaust and like me assume it's running rich but it could only be one or two cylinders  $10 bottle of injector cleaner and the next time I hit boost it pumped out a huge plume of black smoke, cleared the blockage and then ran great, if that's not the issue it's only a cheap thing to try haha  
    • Hahaha! You're correct. Total brain fart on my behalf. Sheesh.
