SSS automotive were advertising GTST-4 RB20DET's for around $1000- with warranty

Fark that a good price for a 20....

but mate at the end of the day its ur choice. I too a few weeks ago i was coming from same situation u r and i stayed true to the 20.I would stick with the rb20 because they arent as shit as people say they are and with a good setup and tune they can be a f**king weapon,u can boost the f**k out of em because of there lower compression and if u take care of it it will last you a long time :worship:

Found this old thread and decided to dig it up.

Cars still off the road, But has the following:

Rb25 from s1 stagea, pulled appart, crack tested, acid dipped, bored & honed.

Weisco forged pistons .5mm o/s

Tomei poncams

Tomei valve springs

Acl race series bearings (full set)

Arp head stud kit

Cometic 1.01mm head gasket

+ new oem gasket kit ;) + porting etc.

All from www.rawbrokerage.com parts were cheaper than my engine builder could get in, very happy with their service.

Motors ready to go, now I'm sorting out my loom options, and once it's running will be coupled with ext gate gtx3076, e85 and 20-22psi. Aiming for 300-350awkw. So much for 250 awkw haha!

Build thread coming soon

Cheers for everyone's help, took me a while to wake up to the 25, the 20 can be a paperweight.

If you have a S1 stagea motor the ecu will be no good to you as it can't be Nistuned. Look for an R33 loom and then you can fit a Z32 ecu to Nistune or put a Link or Vipec in the R33 case. Trick wire to look for: the one from TPS to Atessa.

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
