I was under the impression that the RB25 Neo head flows more CFM than the 26. I'm sure there was something posted in forced induction about it a few months ago. I believe that was when both were heavily ported though, not in standard form.

I think once you start heavily porting something, the differences that were inherently there can almost be said to count for less/nothing. I see a lot of figures being thrown around for the neo head flowing 300+ cfm on the intake, however struggling to have a decent flow rate on the exhaust. I believe this problem is easier to overcome with the 26 head? Feel free to correct if I'm wrong :D

All we can be sure of, is that no matter what head you have, you'll get decent results to a point.

As Dave and Scott here have very well demonstrated.

Finally decided its time to finish off my exhaust. Its long over due. Currently running a 3" system to drift pipes from the cat back. going to run 3.5" instead. Dump/Front pipe is currently 3.5" with a .50" screamer.

Anyone with suggestions of the best combo with tip and mufflers etc?

Car is booked in Thursday for an Exhaust upgrade. Ended up going 3.5" to match the rest of the system. Decided against 4" at this stage to help with clearance levels etc under the car.

I also picked up a 3bay alloy radiator.

Also hunting around for a pair of these. Sill undecided of what spec to go with at this stage.

Next big even locked in Powerplay Brisbane. Its on May 10th. Got a few mates together and we got a garage to make the day even better.. Got a few minor things to sort out on the car between now and then

Step one of Operation: Powerplay Prep begins today.

Car is it getting a new exhaust today. As said a few posts up. Ive been running with a 3.5" dump plus screamer, going down to only a 3" system from the cat back. This isnt ideal on a 600hp car and think its long overdue for an upgrade.

Ended up going with 3.5" straight through with a single tip muffler. Bye bye drift pipes :(

Went to pick up the Skyline with the new exhaust tonight at 7pm...

Safe to say its very different!!!!!!!!

    • Just had this happen to me too.  R32 GTR.   Also broke "just before going out onto the track" - someone up there is looking out for us... Very scary since I was about to do a narrow street course with zero run-off and curbs everywhere. Many people on here upgrading to billet uprights and R35 bearings?   Or buying new OEM knuckles?  I am not keen to replace with another s/h 30 year old fatigued part.
    • Top off with distilled water and see what happens. If you keep losing coolant then you know to start looking.
    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
