Yep, just get a cheap R33 RB25. By the time you get to swapping turbos on them, all RB25s perform the same.

not quite... a low km one from an auto stag is the best ;) (26 block - that and I have one)

I can't decide who's more retarded...

Mohsen, or the rest of you for still thinking you can talk sense into Mohsen

ZING!

Oh then what's the diff between neo and 33 liner?

there is a few differences that you can search FIP for.... but NVCT is on all 25's

Well said...

That's what I'm still deciding with my R33: track basher and let it go au naturale, or fix the hail damage with a full respray and keep it nice. Either way, my wallet loses.

My friend built his car over 6yrs for the track but kept it in perfect condition. Kept it in the garage, less than 10,000km a year. Interior and exterior in show room condition with a lot of custom work. Was his pride and joy.

After 6 years, car was ready for track. Second attempt on track, hit oil on the last lap of the day and smashed side of car on barriers. 6yrs of insurance at agreed value (high premium) and barely any driving, car written off in a second with no insurance payout...

So what do you do now?

Internals are also different in the NEO. Rods are GTR rods, solid lifters, n1 style oil pump off the top of my head

These are more reliability than performance, though...waste of time paying more money for a later 25 if all you're chasing is 260rwkw IMO.

Yeah I agree, you wouldn't expect much difference between a NEO and non-neo at that power level

Admittedly I prefer the sound of the NEO engine, but I think the exhaust note is different mainly because of the larger rear housing. My exhaust note was much deeper after installing my high flow.

Couldnt see a problem with it as long as it fits and is in good condition

What jacket is it?

Nah that's fine, it's not like buying second hand helmets. If it fits go for it.

i see

don't have one in mind but they always pop up here and there

here's just an example

lol 400kw trying to be the first 32 in orbit?

big red - sau vic member 400rwkw r32

explain, are they a 26 block with 25 head and internals?

exactly this. they also spend their lives behind an auto

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
