Im not expacting a MASSIVE increase in power, as a final figue. As Michael said, the differences should be huge.

As there is 1.5m less of intercooler pipeing and individual throttle bodies the turbo will spool quicker, reach peak boost at a lower RPM and be alot more responsive.

More responce means I have a widerpower band, more usable torque and power at lower RPM.

Please bear in mind this is going in a fairly light R32 too, not a bulky R34.

The wait is finally over guys! This is it - the one of a kind RB25DET NEO with GTR plenum, NO adaptor plates!

Engine fired-up no probs, now taking it easy for a while to run-in the head and make sure there's no leaks etc. The engine asks for a tune-up.

Latest details of the mod are as follows:

- Used the standard GTR air box, AAC valve and air regulator under the plenum (for last two, harness modded with connectors to suit).

- Used the standard GTR water tube under the air box and water hoses to suit. One outlet from the water tube was plugged.

- Used the standard GTR blow-off valve setup.

- Ditched the Neo oil cooler/filter holder as it interfered with the air box and used instead a standard oil filter holder from any RB20/RB25.

- Used for now the NEO fuel rail and injectors. Will upgrade later to GTR rail and higher flow injectors.

- Used the NEO TPS (throttle position sensor) with adaptor piece as seen in the photo.

- Used the NEO boost sensor (connected to the plenum).

- Ditched the throttle motor and sensor (NEO traction control system).

- Ditched the carbon canister purge solenoid and connected the canister through one way valve to the GTR factory port.

- On the turbo side, used a Turbosmart elbow reducer 3in to 2.5in to connect the turbo outlet with the GTR air tube

More pics to come!

Sweet, getting back my head this weekend so I will throw up some pics to compare and then I will be PMing for the much needed advice. Still need to replace the guides and get them reemed though :D. Sweet job nonetheless, how is the response and PM me details as I am going with an RB26DETT bottom end with the Neo head and keeping the VCT and using the RB26 covers and whatnot, may just keep it single turbo as I already got my HKS cast iron setup with external gate.

Do you think there would be any problem with leaving out this bolt as my machinist forgot this and widened the water outlet for the GTR setup. Thinking about leaving it this way, your thoughts?

I think this is a bolt guide, nothing more.

Has done similar work, perhaps someone would be helpful:

No. It is still at the stage of assembly. Plan before the end of the month run.

At the moment, is a problem - how to control valve VCT because ECU will stand by RB20DET. I do so out of ECU, the external electronics.

There are thoughts about this?

Strelok, ya tebe otvetil na nisme.

I would certainly try to get a bolt back in there. Its not a ocating bolt, it clamps the head down to stop a coolant oil leak from those 2 passages.

Hmmmm this would require me to get the area filled and tapped for the bolt as the inside of the head in that area was ground to mate proper with the RB26 ITB water ports. Gonna ponder on this for a bit, I am think the headstuds should have more than sufficed for this but I will rethink it.

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
