Hi all, the below table are the SPEC for the RB25DE, I have an auto NA 34 and would like to get some idea of the best, economical ways of getting about 150km at the wheels, open to suggestion and if possible please list the mod, cost and the installation cost. :thumbsup:

If it has to be kept N/A do the following

RB30 bottom end

Cams/Headwork

Decked block to bring compression to 10.5:1 (or through piston selection)

Aftermarket ECU

2.5" Exhaust with highflow cat converters

Install and fabrication costs will vary from shop to shop, but $8K should see a very reliable and well built setup that loves to rev

150rwkw/200rwhp out of an RB25DE is going to cost you.

Machine work (porting will have to be done and getting the compression up, 10.5:1 probably won't cut it, you should be trying for 11:1 - 11.5:1 for 2.5lt and costs for big cams also)

About - $4000

Aftermarket ECU - Min $1000 then to wire in and tune another $1000

Decent Extractors - $1000

Labour - min $1000

Cams and springs - $1500

Oil an water pumps - $500

Exhaust piping - $750

Lightened Flywheel and new clutch - $1000

So about 11G should net a figure around 150rwkw probably 160 - 170rwkw, but in saying that people would say you spent all that money and get such a tiny power figure, but really that setup would be good for a mid - high 12 to low 13 sec quarter pass which isn't slow for an N/a

12 second quarters would be asking way, way too much from 160rwkw on a 34. My mate has a Del Sol CRX (non turbo worked to the shit) with 171rwkw and he cuts 12.1 sec quarters, and his car is light as shit compared to the weight of a 34.

Wow that is a shit load, you might aswell sell and get a GTT, and even with money remaining, do some supporting mods and hit some good figures i guess!

no they are not the same. RB25DE = high compression RB25DET = low compression. The low compression is made up for by boost via the turbo.

Simply bolting on a turbo to the RB25DE will not run properly and kill it very quickly. An RB25DE+t can be done though with the right parts, the right engine management that can handle fuel and ignition timing, and good tuning, and of course supporting mods such as fuel pump and injectors to meet the new demands, and of course keeping the boost level at a safe limit.

The hardest part is going to be whether you can do the labour, or paying a workshop to do it, and of course finding a workshop who will not only do the labour but will be willing to tune it. A fair few workshops refused to do it, or refused to tune such a set up. If you do it, make sure the tuner is confident with it.

I think it will be wise for you to have a read through the How To Turbo N/A Skyline thread. What I said above is a very very condensed version. It will also be good to look at the differences between an RB25DE and RB25DET engine.

In regards to an LS1, this has been done on a number of S13's and a quick google shows that there's R34's that have had the LS1 treatment. There was a 320kw LS1 powered S13 in HPI Magazine issue 83.

Could always do a twin turbo LS1 :(

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
