Im just about to drop in some tomei poncams 8.5mm lift into my rb25det and was contemplating doing the valve springs while ive already taken the cams out.

I was looking at the tomei type a valve springs 8.8mm lift , are these the correct ones I need?

Yep get Performance Springs.

I got a set in mine and they were a great price :blink:

You taking the head off to do the springs? (I did)

I looked on there site , which ones do I need cause its not model specific? and no Im going to do it with the head on and just pressurize the cylinder to hold them up.

The Performance springs is just little bit stronger then standard. The supertech springs are probably the best you can get at this stage. Those are stronger then the type B Tomei springs which are cheaper as well.

Totally agree. I lost one engine and broke valve springs in another with performance springs. If your aim is big hp the supertech is a much better option.

He is only after a 280-300rwkw setup it think so not huge HP/Boost given a stocker motor.

You're probably right Ash. they are an upgrade but if big hp is the goal I would choose other brands.

I am not the only one i know of to have probs with those springs in high hp situ's.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.

      Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.

      Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
