Hey all,

Been searching the threads and (i must be shit at searching em) but i can't seem to find anything on the RB28 stroker kit (Tomei/HKS) kits for the GT-R.

I recently read that the Tomei 2.8L kit is compatible with the RB25DET NEO engines and just wished to know if anyone has done this set up or knows what type of power the engine can hold once this is done?

I was thinking of doing the old 25/26 top end 30 bottom end but found engineering to be a problem with that and i dont want to get majorly defected and screwed for the engine. So looking at trying to keep current parts and engine in and keep it as legal as possible in that respect.

How do the RB25blocks hold with those kits? What power can you make with certain turbo set ups and the rest...if you can bore and stroke the engine to 2.8L like the RB26 does that mean you can make similar power figures aswell?

Only option i got now is to either buy a RB26DETT and build it and engineer it or buy this 2.8L stroker and build my engine or get a RB25DET (since my engine is RB25DE) and engineer that with no problems before storking it.

If anyone can point me to the right links, or answers even PM me i would greatly appreciate it. Just need those few things cleared up so i can actually look at buying one and start building my engine already!

Here is the right link

everything, you need to know.......

Why not just sell your r34 GT and buy a gtr? If you're going to modify a car that seriously you may aswell start with the top of line model that comes with all the extra goodys like bigger brakes, 4wd, better handling and an already more powerful engine. By the time you finish building your rb25 stroker you will of spent 20k easily and still be left with standard brakes, suspension, interior which will all need upgrading once you finish the engine.

True. But then again people fall in love with their cars and in the modified car world its hard to be different and unique. If you have the cash, why not? I sure as hell would love to.

But then if you were to think about it from a calm and rational point of view, then yeah, you probably would get a GTR!

If people wanted to be unique they shouldn't buy one of the most popular import cars ever lol. Don't know how you could get so attached to an NA R34 that you wouldn't trade it for the top of the range model. Ahwell if we all did the same shit it would get boring pretty quick so go for it.

Dont fall in love with a car, normal people *GIRLFRIENDS* find it hard to understand why you just spend 20 grand on your car to make the engine bigger.

well sometimes. if u get lucky u find alot of things for cheap

but 10gz for a stroker kit. just leave it 2.6L

i wouldnt call any of these things cheap

but of course for someone whos apprentice mechanic that still lives at home with his parents with no Expenses but the car... i suppose to some people it wont... :D

i think the same

i personally dont like anything thats a Non GT-R.... in fact i HATE any skyline thats a NON GT-R

but ive come into terms with the fact that not everyone can afford one even if they wanted to.

as well as a public skyline forum...so people are free to ask whatever they want with thier car

i said nothing bout it being cheap. i said it was expensive. i said u can find some parts sometimes cheap. me being a mechanic i get trade prices, and know people in performance industry

and how do u know i live at home with my parents ? i dont pay bills.. debts.. pay the house off ??

guessing...

*19 yr old

*male

*Ethnic background

*apprentice mechanic's wage

*blows, most of the money on his car... (for that kind of chump change, and spending all your dosh on your car, you would not even have enough for rent a week living on your own, let alone the expenses)

:D

    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
