First up... yes ive searched. the search function on this forum is somewhat dated and needs an overhaul IMO... due to bringing up so many irrelevant results up which have nothing to do with the search query

anyway, bitch aside, im putting together a neo powered drift car, some of you may remember i used to have a R32 with stock RB25 with 3071R making 280 rwkw on 17 psi with cams and gears. I still have the 32 these days but its pretty stock these days and the 25 is still in it but stock turbo etc.

i understand that 300 rwkw seems to be regarded as the limits for an internally stock 25... and mine with 28 never posed ANY probs whats so ever and was reliable as hell... soooo Whats a neo motor like with similar power levels?

this time round ive got a 3037 with high mount mani, hks gate and cams + injectors, will be running a nisstune again (love em) and am hoping to make similar power levels.

Is the CR the same in a neo compared to a 33 25?

cheers for the replies... if any.

i know they have solid lifters, but from the searching i did, everyone seems to say they think they have GTR rods... but no confirmation.

Pretty sure there was a thread where someone pulled some out?

i remember reading an article in a magazine about a r34 putting out a decent power figure (goes through pile of mags next to me) ok it a performance imports mag from some months ago, got a red 34 gtt in it, makes 364rwkw on an internally standard 25 neo, and they reckon it was pretty reliable too lol although i wouldnt expect that to last too long without going bang, but then it does prove the fact its possible

i dont think 364 rwkw stock motor would last with me driving it :D

yeah so long i can do what i did with my old 25 i'll be happy. 280 all day every day.

is the C/R ratio same or different to r33 version?

We did up one and only could push .9 Bar on the stock Turbo's.

Strange, because I always thought that 1 bar was safe for RB25's and Neos......Not.

Even with a FMIC, fuel pump, exhaust and computer upgrade it pushed 180RWKW's.

This is an Auto and not manual driven around the city daily.

The Neo Motor is not the best stock motor to draw reliable power from.

If you push it to its limits more than likely you will need a re-build.

300 RWKW's day in day out with stock internals?.....

Depends once again on the Dyno your using.

180rwkw for an auto is REAL good, i would not be complaining :P Manuals top out around 200-210rwkw.

as for 300rwkw reliable out of a RB25 i could post about 6 cars that see regular drifting days (about 6 -8 events a year) and if they can endure drifting they can endure anything. These cars have also ran @ other dyno days. DA driver Chris de jager is one of them and if you think a TD06SH-25G on a rb25 making 300rwkw is unrealistic i dont know what else to say... :D ps his motor has done three seasons in the GFB car before we tuned the TD06SH-25G in his new S15....

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
