I am sure it is stated somwhere on this site.

I have spent a few nights now using the search function, have found a couple of people claiming rb26 and rb20 springs fit and give me a higher spring seating pressure - but don't know about binding when fully open?.

What i want is confirmation of somone using these before i go and order these from an interstate company.

The interstate company cannot match up with my rb25de springs to forefull my requirments.

Any help appreciated.

hey mate.

i have the same r32 rb25de head on my fully built rb25/30 motor..

im running gtr valve springs with a ported head and standard valves...

altho not yet running in my car..

dahtone racing is a member who i brought the head from..

i know he was running it and it was going fine..

good luck mate..

id say rb26 springs would be the go for you

I'm running an R32 RB25DE head on my 25/30 and running stock valve springs, it was previously in a car with a pair of 2540's bolted on and making 365rwkw @ 21psi with no valve float issues.. so I don't expect any issues with my GT35R either.

I have ordered a set of valve springs from performance springs to suit rb26, there springs are rated 45% higher seat pressures than standard so this will be ample. They cost $279.50 delivered, which i think is very reasonable.

As long as they don't coil bind they should be good.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
