Beer can only do so much lol its all the little things that will kill a relatively modest budget on something like this.

RB25/30's are tried and tested and work, i usually go with better the devil you know than the one you don't

Edited by Weapon

I read this as "I've got very little/no money and want 300rwkw from a hybrid motor"

Never, going, to, happen.

By all means though, try and prove us wrong. Start a thread in the projects section once you start.

A realistic approach to this is a stock rb30 bottom end with new bearings, forged pistons, stock oil pump etc and put the 25 head on. If your budget permits at this point get an N1 balancer and away you go. Get it all balanced and assembled by a professional and happy days!

Im using a neo head for my rb30 build

What pistons are people using with the neo head to keep the compression down?

Does anyone know if the standard turbo neo pistons are dished or dome and there CC are

also the same info for rb30et pistons.

I dont really want to go forged but I might have to.

thanks guys for the info

So from what you have said so far you have an R31 with an NA RB30, but in your info it says an R31 with an RB25DET, question is how much power do you have?

If you are still running the NA RB30 or stock RB25 then forget about 300+ rwkw, go with the 25 and aim for 270-280, trust me, i had a fairly stock 25 and was aiming for 300+, had it tuned and hit a wall at 250 but f**k me, 250 is fun and safe on a standard 25 and there will be no f**king around with cross breeding parts that may or may not work well together, stick with the proven path to power its a lot cheaper an easier, on the other hand if you want bragging rights that you have something custom in there then you best start saving lots of money.

As for the bragging rights tho with only 320 my first question (and everyone else i know) would be "why bother".

EDIT

kitty has n00b aids!

Edited by W0rp3D

guys, kitty just bumped this thread and for whatever reason decided to post his [irrelevant to toyotas] question in it lol. That other guy seems to understand now that toyota internals in a RB30 is not the best idea.

kitty, RB25 neo has dome pistons.

heres some of the cars features.

engine an drivetrain-

2jz-gte 350+kw at the wheels tuned and dynod at dobsons dyno tune.

r154 gearbox with alloy bushes.

osgigen push type clutch setup.

sard fuel pressure regulator.

braided fuel lines throughout.

front facing plenum,

stainless headers,

t4 turbo,

link g4 storm.

3 link igniters.

link g4 dispaly dash.

bosch coilpacks located under the dash.

48mm external wastegate.

external fuel pump and surge tank.

3 inch straight through exhaust system.

alloy radiator

inside and outside-

streetpro kits widebody front and rare,

streetpro kits uras body kit with gtr bee*r front bumper.

just been painted inside and out at re automotive.

6 point roll cage.

koya bucket seats.

apexi ajusties

pitty the jz range has 92mm bore spacing and rb has 96.5mm..... same as m104 merc and L series. with a larger gap seperating the first and last 3 cyl.. so unless you get out your metal stamp and punch in 2jz over the rb26 your nowhere.

cheers.

thanks guys for the info

RB30 Forged Flat tops will give you the Comp you want for a nice streeter and RB30ET Pistons if you want very low comp.

Buy some forged Flat tops from Spool etc.

None of the 2JZ parts are directly compatible with any of the RB series nissans. Piston compression height is 2mm too tall, the gudgeons are 22mm, not 21mm. The pistons are dished as well. The conrod length is 10mm shorter than the RB and they are 2mm larger and 3mm wider at the big end. In short, nothing fits. Not even with some massaging.

The idea of pinching some of the dimensions of a 2JZ and using them in an RB is a good one. 2JZ's are built like diesels. There is no cheap way about it though. Its custom all the way for every part you want to use.

I read this as "I've got very little/no money and want 300rwkw from a hybrid motor"

Never, going, to, happen.

Total thread hijack awaits. But I don't think there's enough info on low power hybrid motors.

Is a hybrid motor a reasonable upgrade for someone with little money wanting to make no more than 250rwkw but rather have a better area under the power curve?

If you do the work yourself, and do it right the first time. Mistakes cost money.

A good example of building a cheap hybrid is here:

So it is proven possible. Thanks for the reply GTRNUR. :cheers:

Unfortunately I don't have the tools or knowledge for a rebuild. Otherwise this could have been a great project for me over the university summer holidays. I always hear great things about how these engines drive.

    • I ordered a GSP Front R/H Axle from here - https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd#description It lasted around a year before one of the boots blew out. I'm lowered, but I have GKTech roll center adjusters. One year seems a little premature. I think I'm going to spend the extra money on an OEM cv axle this time. This website - https://tfaspeed.com/collections/nissan-stagea-wgnc34-x-four-parts/products/nissan-stagea-awc34-260rs-rb26-right-front-axle-drive-assembly Makes it sound like the readily available OEM CV axle will only fit 11.1999 Stagea and up (mine is a 2.1997 S1). The JustJap listing didn't mention any years or anything for the GSP axle. Amayama shows '11.1999' and up as well for that part number. As well as 'plastic boot type'. See attached picture. So I guess my question is, does that axle (39100-23U60) really only fit S2 Stagea? It's the front driver side. If it does, I'd love to buy that instead of rolling the dice on another GSP. I've found that OEM one cheaper here: https://www.partsfornissans.com/oem-parts/nismo-jdm-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-r32-gts4-right-front-axle-3910023u60 and here https://www.nissanparts.cc/oem-parts/nismo-shaft-ft-drive-3910023u60 Just a little confused because the JapSpeed listing for the GSP front driver axle doesn't mention any specific years or anything and it fit my S1 Stagea fine. So will 39100-23U60 fit my S1 Stagea even though technically it says '11.1999' and up? What would have changed? Thanks.  
    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
    • Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
    • Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups. 
    • 75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.
