hey just got to 2 questions

number 1

i wars thinking of making a rb20det with 500bhp to start with, becourse not many people have done it, and to see if it can be done. so if you have an idea to what parts i should use it who'd be great. i am going to use a HKS f-con v pro engine management.

number 2

is it even possible to run 2,2 bar of boost on stock internals, becourse there is a man in sweden that clams to run 550bhp and 2,2 bar of boost, here is the specks.

ported head with custom cams.valvs

stainless steel exh.manifold with T70 Turbo

700hp + turbokompressor.

HKS 60mm wastegate with screamer pipe

Jun style polished inlet manifold with 90mm billet trottle

Bosch 1000cc injectors

twin Whalbro fuelpumps

modified fuelsystem

GTR style large intercooler 3# pipes

Link Engine Managment system

water/methanol injected to support the 98oct std pump fuel

when going over 2 bar of boost

HKS ignition amplifier

Nos system

launch control/antilag system

sorry if my spelling is a bit off

Its pointless. A waste of money. It will be lag city like no tomorrow. Youd be better off going RB25. But if you want to do it, then do it.

2.2 Bar on a stock bottom end...you can try it, but dont expect it to last more than a couple of dyno runs!

Ive heard of someone running 2.0 Bar through an SR20. Its crazy!

here is a pretty crazy rb20 built by OHperformance i had on the dyno the other week the revlimit was 9800 and sounded sweet, real credit to the guys.... :) 490hp at the wheels.

it must be mental from 5000rpm to 6,000rpm!! lol it triples it's power in 1,000rpm! does it still make power after 7500rpm?

there is a reason not many people have 700hp turbos on RB20's... did some people go on school holidays early?

T70 turbo sounds like a piece of shit http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Eb...bo-t130247.html

5000rpm of lag does not sound like fun, IMO, if you want that power, RB30DET or a turbo LS1 :)

femno: i know that it is better going for a rb25 but here were i live they have some strict rules about engine swaps, the only way i can do it, is if the people that decide if it is going on the road or not, cant see the difference on the two engines.

They have strict rules about motor swaps...

Yet you can make the motor you have into a 500bhp item?

Sounds like laws there are dumber than here in Victoria, and i thought that wasn't possible.

500bhp would be about as useless as 1000bhp from a OS 3ltr :verymad:

Whats the use of the car? You would get far more enjoyment, speed and so on from a RB20 that has more response.

Such lag that would require would make the car slower

i am going to use the car as a every day car in the summer.

if i remove the cover over the plugs so they cant see on the cover if it is a rb20 or a rb25, but is there any other way they can see that it is a rb25, and not a rb20

If you buy an R33 RB25DET it is easy to pick the difference as the inlet cam gear looks completely different and the inlet manifold is clearly different. Get an R32 RB25DE and turbo it, nobody can tell the difference externally. I was going to put 25 internals in one for a cheater RB20 but am happy with the 340hp at the wheels my std RB20 makes so sold off the engine, rods, cams and pistons etc

300rwkw+ & RB20 in my book does not equal alright for a daily driver :P

250-270rwkw & RB20 IMO is about the limit, otherwise you just hurt resposne too much to enjoy it and you have to drive with your foot up the car everywhere you go

i Dont know Ash, 4 years ao people said anything more then a 2530 and 220rwkws was too much for a std RB20. A new manifold and some different turbo combos are getting thrown at Ben and we will soon know where we land, it will be between 260 and 310rwkws somewhere. Just have to find the combo that works best, cant wait to see if the std 20 can handle the extra power and more importantly revs :D

...walks off and starts singing "anything an RB25 can do, and RB20 can do better... :P

    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
