Hey guys,

Thinking of selling my RB25 i have built to get myself some cash, originally i got this motor out of an R33 in pretty good condition, but to get it up to really good condition i had the head reco'd at the cost of around $600 which included new inlet valve guides and stem seals, the exhaust guides had already been done, while the head was apart i also cleaned up the unnecessary lumps in the exhaust ports.

It all went back together with the following parts:

Performance Springs valve springs and retainers - $300

Camtech 272 Duration, 9mm lift cams - $1200

Tomei adjustable Cam Gears - $300 (not 100% sure i want to sell the cam gears yet)

ARP Head Studs - $150

New Durapro VRS Gasket Kit - $400

ACL Race Series big end bearings - $70

Also to go with this engine is a non-genuine Greddy Front facing plenum which i have gasket matched the runners to the head myself (needed doing really badly), and i have a billet fuel rail kit for this which allows the use of top feed injectors.

Together these cost around $500 and for the right price i can include some GTR Injectors aswell.

It also has a second hand Stainless highmount turbo manifold and Turbosmart 38mm Gate if needed, valued at around $500 for both items together.

As the engine sits it is currently a bare long motor, ready to have manifolds and accessories bolted on and put into use.

All up including the original price of the engine this setup owes me around $4500 but im willing to sell it for alot less than that so i thought i would see what kind of interest i get.

I can also throw in another r33 turbo bottom end with 1 melted piston for parts...

Also i should add that these cams are to suit an RB20 which eliminates the VCT, so this setup will drop straight into an R32 GTS-T using existing coilpacks, crank angle sensor, etc..

Or alternatively it would still drop into an R33 with minimal alterations.

I will try and upload some photos of the engine at some point.

Reason for sale is i sold the 32 GTS-T i built this for.

For any questions contact me on here or SMS me on 0408 117 171.

Cheers, Daniel.

Here are some pics of the build :)

The comparison photo of the 2 cam lobes is one of the 272's and a stock rb25 cam.

Also the turbo pictured has been sold and is not included.

May consider swaps and also may consider seperating the head from the block if someone is looking to build a forged motor and needs a head to put on it, this would also be a good head for a 25/30 build having no vct and bigger cams to help with flow for the extra capacity in the bottom end :)

with the cams, springs, gears and covers, it owes me around $2500 but would take $1800, the cams alone were $1200, would be happy to keep the cam gears and cam covers and sell it for $1500

    • 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)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
