hey guys

at the moment im looking at upgrading a few items throughout the engine. Ive got an rb25de (non-turbo). I was looking around and found a few things. I came across an RB30 loom & plenum for sale.Firsrlt would this fit into an rb25 engine? Would it also fit into a non turbo version? And lastly would it give me a bit of power difference?

I then came across a bolt on turbo. It was a T0E4 turbo charger. It didnt come with a wastegate or gaskets. What would i be looking at to get this installed in an rb25? Would all the internals have to be changed? if so most the parts? would it just be worth getting an rb25det?

Cheers

agreed with Chris ^^ in the matter of selling the gts and getting a gtst......as modifying a gts to a turbo you will have more headaches then anything.....how about just get a DET motor and replacing the DE motor thats another cheap option mate.....you can pick up DET motors pretty cheap these days as well

Cheaper option - buy a gts-t.

Got money to spend? Then buy an rb25det, 5 stud brake upgrade, everything you will need engine wise (turbo, ecu, manifold, etc.), then get someone to fit it.

But the short answer to your question, no advantage of rb30 plenum, dunno why youd want an rb30 loom. Turbo means youd need to prepare your current engine for it, or see my second point.

part 1

5 stud rims $1000 drift teks needed 2x tires as well

2x bf goodridge $320

drill rotors to suit 4 stud $80

4x calipers and rotors $1000

fitting from boost works $150

total $2550

part 2

braided lines $180

brake pads $110

Brake fluid $30

RDA group buy price cant be said

Total $320

    • Man, different parts but the same numbers is terrible @dbm7! And it doesn't help that most online shops don't list the part numbers at all. They just give a list of compatible models...
    • Slow when hot could also be because its getting more dynamic compression, OR things are getting a bit tighter once it is all expanded. If it were an earthing issue, typically I'd expect you to have it have issues all the time. Unless it's really a combination of both things. Where the higher compression, and things being a bit tighter, is giving that bit of extra load and you do need a slight clean up on the cables/connections.
    • Yeah, this is one of the most annoying things about nissan part numbers... I've got an unrelated example... Image is of the AT output shaft ~ they have the same part#, but clearly the shaft on the left is beefier design to that on the right ...the difference (essentially) is the 'lighter' shaft on the right, is for engines up to RB25DE (this includes RB20 variants) : the shaft on the left is for RB25/26DET(T)....are they interchangeable? Yes...but obviously one shaft is going to be stronger than the other...and, the lighter shaft is around USD115, but the heavier shaft closer to USD150...same part#... ...epc-data usually tells a tale ~ the amayama listing for 39100-23U60 has a note "Longest side is between 60 and 105 cm" ; no such info is there for 39100-23U70 ...and given the great disparity in price between the 2 parts, it makes me at least curious (to the point of caution) where the 'extra money' went? ...ie; these 2 parts have a cost difference that (to myself at least) isn't explained by 'plastic boot'...ie; with amayama there's AUD700 price difference ...plastic versus rubber?...I'm not seeing it like that...and 60cm ~ 105cm...??...that's a huge disparity....something hinky going on here... I'd try searching by VIN, not model... /2cents
    • I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
    • One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?
