Hi Guys!

I wonder if anyone know how much KW an unported rb25det head can handle on an rb30? Is it worth fitting Tomei Poncams and harder valvesprings on an unported head?

If the bottom is forged, balanced and has a nitto or Tomei oilpump with the longer crank collar would it be safe to rev 8000-8500 with the std hydraulic lifters?

I also wonder if it´s worth keeping the NVCS when build an rb30 or is it better to not use it, As the rb30/25 has enough torque at low rpms?

I will use Ethanol as fuel if it matters.

Sorry for newbie quests :cheers:

realy impressive! Wonder how much more poncams would do if it´s worth it before porting it?

you must have DEEP pockets, you would be looking at around $1000 just for the cams alone. . . the oil pump is right up there too

Keep the VCT - no such thing as too much torque.

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
