to day i did compression test for my rb25 det. its 1993 s II, 87000 km on it.

1 - 110

2 - 110

3 - 120

4- 110

5 - 120

6 - 120

if some body can say something abt this...please. im bit worry abt this

That doesn't sound too bad to me... IIRC my RB25DE (before I turboed it) read around 190PSI across the board, but I think my gauge may be reading a little high. The DET version will always have lower compression (to prevent detonation with boost)

The most important thing is that the compression is fairly even across the board. If there's one or two cylinders which are much lower than the rest, it's a good indication you've got problems.

When I broke the ring lands I had about 190PSI in the good cylinders and about 60 or so in the dead ones... I wouldn't think you've got anything to worry about.

according to rb25det nissan specs min is 130 psi and max 175 psi. and the ratio s/b 9.0 thats why i worried. i have used T&E Compression tool for test. thx any way

coz rb25det factory specs says it s/b min 130 psi and max 175 and the ratio will be 9.0. thats why... i have used T&E Compression tool. thx any way.

looks a bit lowish from memory?

    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
    • You can probably scrub the rust with a toothbrush or something. After you get the rust off flush well with water to neutralize and you will probably want to also use a fuel tank sealer to keep it from rusting again.
    • The sodium citrate solution is designed to buffer the citric acid to keep it from attacking metal quite so much, the guy that came up with that recipe did a ton of testing on how much metal loss occurs over time and it's nothing crazy unless you forget about it for months:   
    • Ohhh I see lol To be honest the main reason why I wanted to start modding is because of a business trip to Japan and Indonesia. I saw many cool and modded cars all throughout in these countries, especially Japan. I myself am of Chinese+Japanese nationality and when living in china (never lived in Japan js my dad side lol) I remember staring at these cars pass by with their loud tacky exhausts and insane wide body kits. And when I went back to Japan, I got even more invested even asking people about their cars and why they modded. Most gave similar answers to what you said but funny enough one guy just said that he saw the need for speed movie being filmed once in Tokyo I think near Shibuya Crossing and got inspired to tune and mod. After that I just started to fantasize on owning a car like that. Also tbh I prefer the R32 over the R34 it's just the R34 is more iconic lol (also apparently better aftermarket support than the R32) and my only goal really is just to make the car mine and make it fun to drive. As much as I love my Cayenne it's pretty bland to drive. Sure the interior is nice and pretty, gives you attention yada yada but I've wanted to experience what it is like to have a car that is truly yours. I suppose thats the goal so far. Haha if you find where I'm from, then sure. Ill help you out on your next "financial decision"
    • From what I am discovering, the grey plug is auto signal. If you car is manual it's not relevant to your set up man.
