WTF? RB25DET's are factory 9:1 comp ratio

You are gaining nothing by putting RB26 gear in your RB25 block. Unless you have a spare crank lying around that you need to use. The stroke is slightly more but the extra 100cc is not going to do FA for torque or power.

The reason I will use rb26 crank is because I have the block and enginehead but no crank,rods or pistons. So instead of buy an rb25 crank and then mount a crank collar on it would cost almost as much as an longnose rb26 crank. If 100cc doesn´t do anything then I wonder why so many high performance gt-rs from japan is stroked to 2,7?

Almost every aftermarkets pistons for rb26 is 8.5:1 but If the rb25 head is smaller cc maybe it is possible to get 9,0:1 then :)

^ umm but how do you have a RB25 now, without any innards?

It's not even 100c, its like 60 or something.

9:1 will be fine, pretty standard for anyone rebuilding in this day an age considering fuel advancements over the past 10 years+

Also just use GTR rods, they are fine for over 400rwkw and less than half the price of eagles

I bought a head cheap for about 1 year ago. The I found a block now to. So I will use them to build a complete engine of. A std rb25det cost about 2300Aud here and Im gonna change so much anyway so I think this would be the best way to go :)

You can buy a RB25 bottom end for next to nothing my friend... the head is the most expensive part.

Then just GTR rods ontop of that and you are set. Would be less than $1000 AUD easily. Not sure there you get 2300 from when you already have the top end :)

Beats buying a new RB26 crank IMO, unless you know the RB26 crank you are getting is fine but the cost to check, and if it needs repairing then its almost neutral.

Im from Sweden and It´s alot more expensive with parts here. I have searched for a while for a bottom but didn´t find someting we don´t have so many parts here. So I had to order the block from England. I want the long oilpumpdrive to so I think the rb26 crank would be fine.

The collar can be purchased and fitted for about $200 total. Being in Sweden might make things hard but there's always international shipping

Don't think that getting a second hand rb26 long nose crank is the best solution, because IMO it's not.

Often times on a second hand crank you will see where the oil pump drive has rounded away on the edges of the flat even on the long nose. A collar with international shipping will be under $100AU easily, and then you know the drive is 100% OK after fitting.

DO NOT shave the head more than just a surface because it'll stuff up your cam timing and possibly make the timing belt go slack.

Just order some custom 9.2:1 pistons. You won't be disappointed!

Sorry but that's the biggest load of shit I have ever heard. You aren't going to take enough off a cylinder head to have that much of an effect on the timing belt.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
