Hi all.

Anyone know if the r33 rb25det series 1 and series 2 blocks are directly interchangeable I.e bolt on affair?

My mechanic is a bit hazy on the vtc oil return/feed in particular.

Basically my bottom end is rooted and found another bottom end on here but seller is unsure if it's a s1 or s2 block.

Thanks all.

^^ yeah im pretty sure bottom end is the same s2 run

diff coilpacks and have variable valve timming

and a few other bit different but only electrical stuff

its not variable valve timing,its variable cam timing and series 1 has it.

Yeah series 1 has VCT as well. However Both Series 1 and 2 use different electrical sensors.

That does not effect its interchangablity. As you can bolt up series 2 electrics to a series 1 block and not have issues.

yeah both s1 and s2 have VCT. also, slightly off topic, don't make the rookie mistake of thinking the s2 has the ignitor built into the ECU like many people do. it is built into the coils.

Wow haven't heard that one before.

LOL!

Thanks for th replies guys.

Upon further diagnosis, my head is stuffed too lol so won't be purchasing this bottom end from the seller. I'll let them know this info anyways as it should help 'em sell it.

    • The trouble with phone apps is that they really do not know the sensitivity of the mic on each specific phone, whether there is some sort of cover or skin that can change that, etc etc. So the readings off them are not calibrated. You certainly couldn't be sure that you were even within 3 dB. I have the same app on two (actually more than that) different phones/tablets and the readings in the same room at the same time are never the same. I don't mind the apps - they are as useful as a dyno - if you're testing for delta from thing1 to thing2. But not to try to generate some sort of absolute value.
    • I'm gonna use the "Sound Meter" app from the Google Play Store and as close as I can bother to these procedures: 4. TEST METHOD FOR ALL VEHICLES EXCEPT PRE ADR83 IN-SERVICE GOODS VEHICLES AND OMNIBUSES 4.1 Microphone position 4.1.1 The microphone shall be directed towards the orifice of the exhaust outlet and shall be supported by a tripod or similar device not providing excessive acoustic reflection. The general requirements for positioning microphones are shown in the Appendix. 4.1.2 The nominal axis of maximum sensitivity of the microphone shall be substantially parallel to the test site surface and shall make an angle of 45 degrees ±10 degrees with the principal direction of gas flow from the exhaust. 4.1.3 In selecting the 45 degree alignment from the outlet of a motor vehicle fitted with two or more outlets, only the angle resulting in the microphone being farthest from any other outlet must be used. National Stationary Exhaust Noise Test Procedures for In-Service Motor Vehicles Page 3 4.1.4 The height of the microphone above the test site surface shall be equal to that of the orifice of the exhaust outlet ±25mm but shall not be less than 200mm above the test site surface. 4.1.5 The distance of the microphone from the exhaust outlet orifice shall be 500mm±25mm. 4.1.6 [Relates to vertical exhaust outlets] 4.1.7 For vehicles fitted with one exhaust outlet the microphone shall be placed so that the greatest possible distance is achieved between it and the vehicle. 4.1.8 [Relates to multi exhaust outlets] 4.1.9 [Relates to multi exhaust outlets] TLDR: 200mm off ground 45 degree angle relative to exhaust flow 500mm from tailpipe exit. (I probably won't use a tripod) Here's a photo, cause I read the instructions wrong myself.

    • Cheapest Jaycar one is only $65.
    • Probably best way would be using a proper dB / SPL meter lol Buy one and ship it from state to state to have a consistent test device lololol
