where would be the best place to buy a reasonable rb25de for a r33

i found a skyline r33 n/a cheep what looks nice and neat but its got 201000kms

thats my only problem

would that be a major issue to get a new rb25 and install it??

thanks

im guessing he isnt allowed a turbocharged car

200,000 is a LOT of k's, has it been serivced on schedule?

i imagine a lot of the rubber components of the chassis would be pretty worn after that many k's too

i dont see rb25de's much but i cant imagine they would cost an arm and leg

For a good condition RB25DE you will be looking at $1250 from Adelaide Jap. For a turbo you are looking at about $1950.

Cheaper or more expensive depending on k's and who is selling - private or a business.

Linkies for Adelaide Jap (who have always been helpful to me):

Oh yeah. I'm in WA, i dont know how those rules work.

RB25DE's are pretty rare.

Just because it has 200,000k's doesnt mean its going to die. In N/A form, if serviced regularly they should almost last forever

yer its in good shape, it has been serviced every 10 000kms, the car has a full 400r bodykit and it looks really neet. it dosnt look tacky. if i did buy it what would be the most common things that will go wrong with it? what are some things i have to look out for if i go check it out??

thanks

yer n/a for me

but with that many kms i would want to get it all checked out by some one who knows what there doing. its a good car and it has been serviced every 10 000kms

or would it be cheeper and better to recondition the engine??

Yeah mate..

I picked up an rb25de with NVCS with ECU with 120,000 odd km for $1100 odd.

Dont buy an engine with that many km.

Can I ask what your gonna be using it for? Engine swap? Sell your old engine and get back some money for your new one.

i just want to put a new engine in it so it wont be a problem when coming to servicing ect

yer i would sell it

what do u think?

new engine or recondition it??

How cheap is this car?

Drive the motor as is until it dies. by then you might be able to drive a turbo?

I dont see why the motor cant do 300,000 + kms if it isnt getting titty fu_ked every day

yer true

yer i wouldnt thrash the car

i actually enjoy it

    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
