first off is this true i got told that only pushrod motors have valve bounce.

secondly that 7m gte engines are shit cuz they blow head gaskets and corrode out the head

thirdly what sort of limiter do rb25s use ( are all rbs the same) and are neos and r33 rb25 both limited at 7000 or thereabouts

and lastly will a stock rb25 turbo make 300rwhp

Thanks for your help

A. No. overhead cam engines can float valves with the best of them

B. No they are not shit, Yes they do have an inherint problem with head gaskets. A set of head studs and a decent gasket and you have a motor as good as the 2j

C.Mine came speed limited, Not rev limited

D.yes

220rwkw from stock turbo, no way. Suprised about the amount of people who think they can get over 200rwkw on the stocker.

it can be done. it probably won't last very long but it can be done. most people will tell you that the stock turbo stops making power at about 13psi (because they read it on the internet so it must be true), but i can tell you that is wrong. i have seen it with my own eyes. stock turbo running 16psi made about 20kw more at 16psi than it did at 13psi in back to back runs. so even if you say that the dyno was reading high and ignore the total power figure it made, back to back runs with just enough time between runs to wind the boost up showed a 20kw gain where most people will say that it won't make any extra power or will lose power.

also my tuner has a rb25 in his cerfiro and he is making between 210 and 215kw @12psi on the stock turbo. the reason why i say "between" is because he has had it on his dyno and another workshops dyno (before he got his dyno) and they were both within a few kw of each other.

Are you saying 20rwkw? That's a big jump from 13psi to 16psi on the stock turbo man. Your talking around 30-35HP at the engine on something that is allready pushing at its limit. Must have been a freak of an engine/turbo or something.

pretty sure it was about 20kw at the wheels. (was over a year ago now, so memory is getting a bit dodgy). but it was certainly up around there somewhere.

(1) that 7m gte engines are shit cuz they blow head gaskets and corrode out the head

Thanks for your help

The 7m- GTE dose not like big boost on standard motor.

Also they do tend to leak oil a lot more then RB's do.

The main problem is that toyota did not torque down the head enough. Which is why a lot of guys go the metal gasket route and new bolts all round.

7M's are a much under rated engine....I rate them better than RBs

I would not go as far as saying the 7m-GTE is a better engine then the RB

If you have ever pulled apart an old 7m-GTE and seen the oil pump setup on these then you will see why. These engines were designed before the RB25/26.

If you are talking about 1jz-GTE or 2jz-GTE then yes you are correct.

If i had to decided to either buy a 7m-GTE or RB i'll choose the RB , mainly because parts, standard or after market are so easy to get for RB.

What makes you say that?

Have you tried?

I havnt done this personally but I know a guy who has. form memory He made 302rwhp on S1 RB25DET maxing the shit out of the injectors and running 16-17psi.

I'm not saying its a good thing but yes as it has been stated multiple time, it can be done.

not really. as far as the actual engine goes the 2-jz is a much better/stronger engine than the rb26, and anyone who knows about engines, no matter how much of a nissan fan they are, will say the same. most of the toyota engines are better built than their nissan counterpart.

Stock does about 130rwkw, I find it hard to belive that Nissan left 90rwkw in the bag for us to unlock.

I had a HKS 2530 that did 220rwkw @ 17psi. Its a bigger turbo than the stocker.

I don't count time-bomb setups as being legitimate power figures. If it isn't bullet-proof its a waste of time.

Regardless, he did it and we all saw it.

Of course this wasnt the actual tune he finished with. It was to see what the limits were of the stock gear and as i said everything was at there absolute limit. Yes, there are many variables but on that particular day, on that dyno blah blah blah thats what that particular enging achieved.

    • Power is fed to the ECU when the ignition switch is switched to IGN, at terminal 58. That same wire also connects to the ECCS relay to provide both the coil power and the contact side. When the ECU sees power at 58 it switches 16 to earth, which pulls the ECCS relay on, which feeds main power into the ECU and also to a bunch of other things. None of this is directly involved in the fuel pump - it just has to happen first. The ECU will pull terminal 18 to earth when it wants the fuel pump to run. This allows the fuel pump relay to pull in, which switches power on into the rest of the fuel pump control equipment. The fuel pump control regulator is controlled from terminal 104 on the ECU and is switched high or low depending on whether the ECU thinks the pump needs to run high or low. (I don't know which way around that is, and it really doesn't matter right now). The fuel pump control reg is really just a resistor that controls how the power through the pump goes to earth. Either straight to earth, or via the resistor. This part doesn't matter much to us today. The power to the fuel pump relay comes from one of the switched wires from the IGN switch and fusebox that is not shown off to the left of this page. That power runs the fuel pump relay coil and a number of other engine peripherals. Those peripherals don't really matter. All that matters is that there should be power available at the relay when the key is in the right position. At least - I think it's switched. If it's not switched, then power will be there all the time. Either way, if you don't have power there when you need it (ie, key on) then it won't work. The input-output switching side of the relay gains its power from a line similar (but not the same as) the one that feeds the ECU. SO I presume that is switched. Again, if there is not power there when you need it, then you have to look upstream. And... the upshot of all that? There is no "ground" at the fuel pump relay. Where you say: and say that pin 1 Black/Pink is ground, that is not true. The ECU trigger is AF73, is black/pink, and is the "ground". When the ECU says it is. The Blue/White wire is the "constant" 12V to power the relay's coil. And when I say "constant", I mean it may well only be on when the key is on. As I said above. So, when the ECU says not to be running the pump (which is any time after about 3s of switching on, with no crank signal or engine speed yet), then you should see 12V at both 1 and 2. Because the 12V will be all the way up to the ECU terminal 18, waiting to be switched to ground. When the ECU switches the fuel pump on, then AF73 should go to ~0V, having been switched to ground and the voltage drop now occurring over the relay coil. 3 & 5 are easy. 5 is the other "constant" 12V, that may or may not be constant but will very much want to be there when the key is on. Same as above. 3 goes to the pump. There should never be 12V visible at 3 unless the relay is pulled in. As to where the immobiliser might have been spliced into all this.... It will either have to be on wire AF70 or AF71, whichever is most accessible near the alarm. Given that all those wires run from the engine bay fusebox or the ECU, via the driver's area to the rear of the car, it could really be either. AF70 will be the same colour from the appropriate fuse all the way to the pump. If it has been cut and is dangling, you should be able to see that  in that area somewhere. Same with AF71.   You really should be able to force the pump to run. Just jump 12V onto AF72 and it should go. That will prove that the pump itself is willing to go along with you when you sort out the upstream. You really should be able to force the fuel pump relay on. Just short AF73 to earth when the key is on. If the pump runs, then the relay is fine, and all the power up to both inputs on the relay is fine. If it doesn't run (and given that you checked the relay itself actually works) then one or both of AF70 and AF71 are not bringing power to the game.
    • @PranK can you elaborate further on the Colorlock Dye? The website has a lot of options. I'm sure you've done all the research. I have old genuine leather seats that I have bought various refurbing creams and such, but never a dye. Any info on how long it lasts? Does it wash out? Is it a hassle? What product do I actually need? Am I just buying this kit and following the steps the page advises or something else? https://www.colourlockaustralia.com.au/colourlock-leather-repair-kit-dye.html
    • These going to fit over the big brakes? I'd be reeeeeeeeaaaall hesitant to believe so.
    • The leather work properly stunned me. Again, I am thankful that the leather was in such good condition. I'm not sure what the indent is at the top of the passenger seat. Like somebody was sitting in it with a golf ball between their shoulders. The wheels are more grey than silver now and missing a lot of gloss.  Here's one with nice silver wheels.
    • It's amazing how well the works on the leather seats. Looks mint. Looking forward to see how you go with the wheels. They do suit the car! Gutter rash is easy to fix, but I'm curious about getting the colour done.
