Iv got my rb25det s2 r33 and has 650cc inj, bosch pump, dsr430 turbo, fmic, linkg4 etc

Was wondering if straight drop in 272deg. 8.4mm lift camshafts are too big for my setup?

Iv tried searching...but doesnt quite make sense to me... what deg cams would i want for my setup? because will 272deg make power too late in the rev range? or...?

im hopeing for about 275+ at the wheel...

thankyou

I know there massive...but would they do anything being that big?

if u get gears and dial them in, you can definately get them to work for you.. the secret to anything good is R n D, and I cant say I have much faith in how much research OR development has gone into those.. never heard of em to be honest.

thats not to say their shit, try find someone else using them and go from their results.

If your hoping for 275, stock cams will be fine.

Camtech do 272/9mm lift for 25's.

but I really think its pointless at that power level.

Its been said time and time again stock cams have worked well at 370kw's +

money could be spent better else where on the car!

Well whats somthing else that could be better spent on the car power wise? i would like some advice! :P

you will be fine, dont know about that turbo tho. My mechanic worked on a 25 with 270 tomei cams, sure the had more lift, but his power delivery wasnt too bad. Definitely useable.

But that was with a gt35r

Is the turbo you have specced capable of making the desired power level?

Money is best spent getting that right.

Looks like a Chinese style 430hp turbo... so highly unlikely it will make 275rwkw.

Probably closer to 230-240rwkw with a nice taste of lag.

No turbo that costs $450 AUD is going to be nice...

I mean the cams just about cost more than the damn turbo... that's just telling you there is something seriously wrong :P

OP - Forget the CAMS, and spend the money on a DECENT turbo.

The turbo claims to make 270rwkw on an rb25det...and they have some dynos for it too... i know its still a cheap turbo and a decent turbo is the way to go but i dont have that much to pay for a big pricetag turbo...but i know i shudnt skimp out on somthing so important...but this turbo seems to look like it will do the trick? if what they claim is true....

heres a dyno sheet off there website

^ Hub dyno mate, it's not RWKW.

So if you spend the CAMS money onto the turbo, a nice decent Garrett or similar, then the car would perform much better in all respects.

You'll probably still be shy another $400-500, so perhaps save up that little bit more on top and then do it once you have the cash together.

A GT3071 would be what you are after IMO. A nice 260rwkw, would be superb streeter.

Take 10rwkw off that dyno sheet as they are using DIN which is an old correction factor (what the US uses), it should be in SAE J1349

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
