hey guys.

just wondering if anyone can tell me what the differences between the rb20det in the gts4 and the gtst is?

i know sump is different, attatched to front diff, and gearbox is different.

im thinkn about converting to rwd, my rb20 is comin to the ends of its life at nearly 200,000kms, and im thinkn rb25, but i wanna know what exactly i may need. i wanna keep the car, has a lot of blood sweat and tears gone into it and alot of stuff i dont want to do again lol.

already have a turbo set up to suit rb25, so do i just need rb25 with plenum side, loom and ecu?

nah i wanna totally get rid of front drive shafts and diff, dont want 4wd anymore... as i never use it, had car for 3 years or so now, and mostly run it rwd with fuse pulled out, its just dead extra weight for me, at the least, my current rb20det off gts4 is still running ok, whats the difference between that and normal gtst rb20? just the sump and diff assemebly?

so if i wanted to remove my front diff, to get rid of 4wd, what will i need to do? assuming:

-gtst sump, gtst bell housing to fit gtr style gearbox onto the rb20.

-take out driveshafts and diff, and put everything together?

    • Yeah nice idea, you mean to suction it to the gauges? I hadn't thought of that.
    • A few suggestions: Do you have the option of retarding your exhaust cam gear to bring the power band over to the left? VCT would be turned off after you make peak torque, you see the power/torque will decay faster with it left on all the way to the limiter Once VCT is turned off, you'll find the motor will take a bit more timing being ramped in Send its mum, more boost! Of course, depends on your exhaust pressure.

    • I was back on the dyno again yesterday after completely revamping my methanol injection system. I was making 440kw at 19psi. Great, this is more then I was making last summer with my old meth system at that pressure, and I figured it would be smooth sailing up to 30+psi. We continued increasing from there and by 25psi, I had only hit 455kw. Dyno sadly lost utility power at this point and I left. We seemed to be on course to hit the same power wall as last summer (477kw@27psi). This is a built RB25 S1 stroked to a 2.8. Built and ported head with Kelford 272/262 cams. Precision 6466 Turbo. Tuner last year believed the power wall is a mix of RPM limitations (Hydro lifters/Limit set at 7600RPM) and fueling. With my new meth system, we're seeing zero knock now but it still won't go up.  What else can I do at this point? Here's my train of thought.  - It's clear from the dyno graph that I would easily make power to 8500+RPM but I'm limited to 7600RPM. I could risk increasing my limiter, but hydro lifters have me worried. What are my options here besides going NEO head or solid lifter conversion? I'm rocking a 1.05AR turbine on my 6466. Would dropping down to a .84 help shift that power down in anyway? - We're only seeing roughly a 30kw difference at the top end with VCT on or off. Is this normal? I want to confirm VCT is working properly. - Should I look into other cam options?  - Should I just keep increasing boost and see if she wakes up later on? I would expect to hit 600rwkw around 35psi with my 6466.
