cool thanks,

trying to get the parts list together so i can build this damn 25/30 there was just a couple things in my head that i wanted to sort out before i finalised the parts list.

Knowing the RB25 comp ratio probably won't help you much.

What pistons and gasket thickness are you going to be using?

gasket i haven't worked out, same with pistons, i was going to keep the standard ones, i want my compression to be around the 8.5 - 8.8 mark, only really want to run 12psi boost. I know i can get that with a smaller turbo but if plans ever change down the line i can alway squeeze more from that turbo rather than buying a new one.

I really need another engine stand, bloody vq is hogging the other one

What's the point of going a dirty 30 if you aren't going to do it properly?

Cast pistons and 12psi on a 35 will net you around 300-320rwhp. Nothing that can't be done on a stock 25 with less mucking around.

true, but i want to muck around, i have been wanting to build one for a long time now, i have a spare good running rb30e here, and i got a 25 head cheap, so why not?

yer true, i could go forged pistons, but thats another $1000 - $2000 for pistons then i might aswell replace the rods. If i dropped a 25 into it i would be following much the same process with the mods. Plus there is too many rb25 r31's around. R31's need 30 love

i dunno never watched it fully, think i fell asleep...

in other news, monday morning will be fun, testing a car for a misfire at 6500rpm on the icb anyone? i'll get the boss to drive it

    • Make sure you drop the GTT base tune back in, and set your injectors again, this will remove anything playing up with it you may have removed. Possibly lean there as it's normally a fast transient going THROUGH atmospheric pressure, and a turbo motor would then quickly go richer as boost builds. The only worry you MIGHT have is ignition timing, as the DE is higher compression than the DET from memory. But again, you're not in boost, so the DE motor will be a lot more forgiving at atmospheric.   Get Murray, Kinkstahs, and Johnny's input on tuning haltechs, those guys have played with tuning enough in the past to be able to help now you're past the trouble shooting stage of the MAP issue
    • @Rusty NutshI mate. Do you have a pinout diagram for the na neo auto ecu? 
    • Yeah thats the plan now. 🤞
    • Have a chat with the tuner, you'd want to drive the car straight there.
    • My mechanic installed all the parts and then got it tuned which i think is around the corner from him
