Their a great starting point.

My 32 used to have the 4wd system and an NA 25.

Do they go good? Well it depends on what you want to do with it. The key to driving a 25DE quick, is never let the revs drop below 4500-5000 RPM and point to point, its not a bad little engine.

The 4WD system is great for when things get hairy. If you find yourself in a pickle, the hardest part is to resist the urge to lift off, but keep it flat, let the ATTESSA kick in, do its thing and straighten you out.

25DE's have around 100RWKW stock.

well the body is in pretty ruff shape. small rust over the wheel arch, tiny cant notice it and just 3 4 dings all over it and starches and stone chips all round so was going to fix that up and put some tanky offset wheels on it and a body kit. just really want to know the N/A mod for a rb25de for some increased power

yayyy GTS-4's!!!!!

They are pretty rare. The po po dont even know what it is.

The truith is they are hard too mod because you have too stick too the rule of thum, more fuel and air will increase power and being a NA there are not many ways too do that let alone much ways too get the power. You have too cut straight too spending more money for slight gains.

My GTS-4 has oversized pistons too 50thou for now. It was my first mod and i wanted to make sure the block was out of the way, i also recondictioned the whole block and top end but with that out the way im only 10% of the way there and gained 20kw so far for the upgrade and rebuild (sitting on 121KW at the wheels)

hahah thats what i did! goes a lot better and really shows the potential of the 4WD.

It is pretty rare, when I say gts4 ppl think its a 4door.

Will be a bit of a pickle trying to source some phat rims with a 4 stud though. But there out there. OR do a 5stud conversion (got som bits n pieces left over from mine) hint hint*.

When mine was NA i had 2.5' extractors and cat back + pod etc bolt on stuff and mid 14s -15 at wsid was bout as much i could get it to go with bolt ons to give you an idea.

a good upgrade might be a factory GTR clutch and flywheel (from early R32) i have a billet lightweight GTR flywheel and Excedy HD GTR clutch in mine, clutch grip is phenomenal (second gear clutch drop lights all 4s with fat tyres) on RB25DE+T but you pay for it with your left leg, it is brutal heavy and bitey, Ive got a mate with a 4000lB Jim berry full monty clutch, and that's light as a feather compared.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
