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 :(

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
