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

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
