Im being told that rb20's make power easier than 25's

Also that my mate has 270rwkw from his rb20det...

There was a thread created a while ago for people with rb20's making 260rwkw or more and all seemd to have trouble getting there

Just to confirm rb20's make less torque, have more turbo lag and as a genral make less power if the mods where the same for an rb25

?

No. A mate of mine has basically the same mods on his RB20DET as I have on my RB25DET. We both have upgraded turbos on stock manifolds, stock motors, aftermarket ECU and fuel system etc.

My car is tuned on BP98 at 17psi and makes 301wkw, same dyno his car tuned on 30% ethanol and 21psi makes 295kw. He gives me a bit of a run for my money on midrange torque - probably more to do with extra boost and better fuel, but his falls flat at 6000rpm and mine keeps making more power. On the same fuel and boost I have roughly 50kw on him, better off boost torque and way better midrange.

No comparison.

Il grab the list of mods and let you guys decide

apparently stock injectors, stock ecu.. 3incj zorst, fmic, 18psi, flat top pistons, to4e turbo and a tune making 256rwkw

il update if there are any mods i left out

stock injectors would not let you produce that much power.

I've owned both RB20DET and RB25DET, for someone to say RB20DET makes more power easier than RB25DET mod for mod, they must be on drugs >_<

Mod for mod, the RB25DET will make more power easily, why on earth would R32 boys be putting RB25DET motors into their cars? Go figure!

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
