Hi all,

I am about to start a rb20det stroker project and i just cant seem to find what im looking for.

Heres a quick run down of what i have.

RB20det- full engine just very worn out and smokie( but sorta still runs)

RB25det- crank, rods and pistons (A1 condition)

Rb25 head (complete) A1 condition..

i've read a lot of posts about people using RB25 Crank, rods and I think 4agze pistons to make an RB21 or RB23 im guessing, i cant exactly remember what combination that makes.

My questions are has anyone ever gone all out using The full bottom end from an Rb25? and does that even work or be compatible? an other idea i had was using the rb25 crank rods and Standard RB20 pistion.

second question. i was also thinking of using the rb 25 head mainly because of the variable cam timing. is it easy to adapt? apart from what i can see an extra oil port near the front of the head.

i was just thinking of doing an rb25 conversion to my R32 but i cant let all these parts go to wast lol and i love engine project.

Third and final question.would anyone have a copy of a map i could use for this engine so once i do get it all complete, she wont run lean and melt.

Cheers

    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
    • I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat 
    • I saw your intro update, are you sure you've actually had a starter motor failure? You mention it could be the alarm causing it. I'm assuming you've got a no start issue, but what are the exact symptoms, as there could be a few reasons it has stopped wanting to start.
