You would find that the R32 also came stock rb25de. Therefore you will not need an engineers cirt.

LOL WUT read what you just wrote

Hmmm, you should watch what you are talking about. As for his suggestion of putting a proper non turbo motor in there is the smartest decision you will ever make.

As for why your car is running shit? Its because the turbo is missing doofus. And want to know another thing? Your non turbo'd car is still illegal for you to drive on your p's because it was registered as a turbo.

So instead of spitting in people's faces like a spoilt brat, just take what he says and reply in a manner as follows, no thank you, I would rather try something else

so he insults me, but i cant insult back?

Yes i did re read that? Not sure what your implying,

You mention you dont want to go Rb25de becuase you will have to pay thousands for a cirtificate,

I said, They came stock with the Rb25de in some year makes, Therefore there is nothing to engineer.

Mate, Were trying to help here... Chill out. its friday god dammit

which r32 skyline came with stock rb25de please tell me right now

which r32 skyline came with stock rb25de please tell me right now

The 2.5 L RB25 engine was produced in four forms:

  • RB25DE - NON-TURBO twin-cam 140 kW/190 PS (180 - 200 hp ) @ 6000 rpm, 255 N·m (26.0 kgf·m) @ 4000 rpm)
  • RB25DET - twin-cam TURBO (T3 Turbo) (245 to 250 hp and 319 N·m)
  • NEO RB25DE- NON-TURBO twin-cam 147 kW/200 PS @ 6000 rpm, 255 N·m (26.0 kgf·m) @ 4000 rpm)
  • NEO RB25DET - twin-cam TURBO (206 kW (280 PS) @ 6400 rpm, 362 N·m (37.0 kgf·m) @ 3200 rpm)

RB25DE and DET engines produced from August 1993 also featured NVCS (Nissan Variable Cam System) for the intake cam. This gave the new RB25DE more power and torque at lower rpm than the previous model. From 1995,(Series 2 Engines) both the RB25DE and RB25DET had a revised electrical system and the turbo charger on the RB25DET(s2) had a plastic compressor wheel rather than aluminium. The most obvious change to the system was the introduction of ignition coils with built in ignitors, therefore the coil ignitor that was on previous models was not used. Other changes were, different air flow meter, engine ecu, cam angle sensor and throttle position sensor. Mechanically series 1 and series 2 very similar, the only mechanical difference would be the Camshafts as the series 2 Cam Angle Sensor's shaft that goes into the Exhaust cam is slightly different. This is very important to not mistake!

In May 1998 a NEO head was fitted, which enabled the engine to be classified as a low emission vehicle (LEV) engine due to their lower fuel consumption and emission output. The NEO head featured solid lifters rather than hydraulic, revised camshafts, with on/off solenoid Variable VCT , used a hotter 82°c thermostat, model specific coil packs and a revised inlet manifold (the runner diameter is reduced from 50mm to 45mm to increase air velocity and low end torque) in particular the RB25DE NEO which had 2 inlets going into the inlet manifold. The combustion chamber of the head is smaller so GT-R spec connecting rods are used to compensate as well as model specific pistons. The turbo received the larger OP6 turbine which some came with steel compressor and turbine wheels, where others had the Nylon plastic compressor wheel and ceramic turbine wheel. Some also used an N1 type oil pump and had the oil pump drive collar on the crank revised to help cope with the breakage problems associated with fast, high revs. All in all they are quite a different engine in their own right - a culmination of 20 years of Nissan RB engine building rolled into one.

The non-VCT, non-turbo RB25DE was fitted to the R32 Skyline, the VCT turbo and non-turbo was fitted to R33 Skylines and the WC34 Stagea. Early R34 Skylines use the non NEO RB, later models use the NEO version.

Should have just bought an S-Chassis for cheap, plenty of manuals going around. Instead you went the route that 99% of

the people in this forum will be against. This will have been a hit in the wasteland.

SyDKing:

Your not telling me which exact model the rb25de came with in a r32. If i recall correctly, they were first used in the series 1 r33 skylines in 93. I dont think nissan ever put a rb25de into a r32 from factory.

So, are you trying to say i can swap motors between cars that use the same chassis?

Edited by IM-32-FK

It came in some later R32 GTS models. As he said in his post.

You should research this stuff man, otherwise it'll cost you money and time, also make you look stupider than you actually are

Everyone here is giving great advice, grab an RB25DE about 1k?? Would just need it put in and that's all.

One thing you'll probably get pulled up on is having a turbo badged and registered car, cops will love you for that even though it doesn't have a turbo.

tl;dr: Yes you can put in rb25de and goodluck

r32's came with the motors rb20det, rb26dett, rb20de and the rb25de. rb25de's are cheaps as chips, picked up a replacement motor for my blown r33 rb25de for $400, worked perfect ever since, guy even claimed it only had 67000 on it but i dont live in lala land and know that isnt true.

so if your smart and car work on cars yourself you can have a mad running r32 non tubro for around $500, which is wayyy cheaper than trying to fix up your unturboed rb25det-t.

Wowwww I thought you were trolling. Don't know how many more people you need to tell you that R32's DID come in RB25DE, but heres another one!

Seriously though RB25DE in the little 32 would go well!

Edit: Also I don't think you ever register your car as a Turbo... It definitely doesn't come up with Turbo or N/A in police computers when they rego check it. Unless the copper can read long engine numbers that pray-tell to the aspiration.

Which they won't look at unless they've popped your bonnet, in which case they'll definitely be getting you with your current modified manifolds etc.

and this is why i love the NA section.

the easiest and cheapest option is to simple buy a rb20DE to put in it. the best option is to put the rb25DE into it, and the worst, and most likely the most expensive option is to try and get your current engine to run properly.

actually the best option would be to sell it and buy something else. a SSS pulsar would be a better option. will be faster and cheaper on fuel, rego, insurance, etc. or even just a commodore or falcon, both of which will be faster, cheaper, etc.

I was under the impression that the only time you need an engineering cert is when you upgrade the motor and the difference between the fuel displacement (between the original and the new engine) is greater than 0.2L

but thank you all for the insight.

gearbox is gonna need changing too, so thats another $500 i guess...plus labour costs probably $600-$800...

it all adds up, i dont have that type of money now anyway it needs to get painted.

the gts25 r32 came with 25de, the rb20 with the turbo removed should've run not too bad, slow, but not running too terribly enough to bother someone that would do a -T, have you done the usual checks? put a turbo back on? even a stock 20 turbo

(i think zebra is asking why you think you need to change the gearbox?)

i dont know, you tell me. Can i use a rb20det gearbox with a rb25 engine?

    • I had 3 counts over the last couple of weeks once where i got stranded at a jdm paint yard booking in some work. 2nd time was moving the car into the drive way for the inspection and the 3rd was during the inspection for the co2 leak test. Fix: 1st, car off for a hour and half disconnected battery 10mins 4th try car started 2nd, 5th try started 3rd, countless time starting disconnected battery dude was under the hood listening to the starting sequence fuel pump ect.   
    • This. As for your options - I suggest remote mounting the Nissan sensor further away on a length of steel tube. That tube to have a loop in it to handle vibration, etc etc. You will need to either put a tee and a bleed fitting near the sensor, or crack the fitting at the sensor to bleed it full of oil when you first set it up, otherwise you won't get the line filled. But this is a small problem. Just needs enough access to get it done.
    • The time is always correct. Only the date is wrong. It currently thinks it is January 19. Tomorrow it will say it is January 20. The date and time are ( should be ! ) retrieved from the GPS navigation system.
    • Buy yourself a set of easy outs. See if they will get a good bite in and unthread it.   Very very lucky the whole sender didn't let go while on the track and cost you a motor!
    • Well GTSBoy, prepare yourself further. I did a track day with 1/2 a day prep on Friday, inpromptu. The good news is that I got home, and didn't drive the car into a wall. Everything seemed mostly okay. The car was even a little faster than it was last time. I also got to get some good datalog data too. I also noticed a tiny bit of knock which was (luckily?) recorded. All I know is the knock sensors got recalibrated.... and are notorious for false knock. So I don't know if they are too sensitive, not sensitive enough... or some other third option. But I reduced timing anyway. It wasn't every pull through the session either. Think along the lines of -1 degree of timing for say, three instances while at the top of 4th in a 20 minute all-hot-lap session. Unfortunately at the end of session 2... I noticed a little oil. I borrowed some jack stands and a jack and took a look under there, but as is often the case, messing around with it kinda half cleaned it up, it was not conclusive where it was coming from. I decided to give it another go and see how it was. The amount of oil was maybe one/two small drops. I did another 20 minute session and car went well, and I was just starting to get into it and not be terrified of driving on track. I pulled over and checked in the pits and saw this: This is where I called it, packed up and went home as I live ~20 min from the track with a VERY VERY CLOSE EYE on Oil Pressure on the way home. The volume wasn't much but you never know. I checked it today when I had my own space/tools/time to find out what was going on, wanted to clean it up, run the car and see if any of the fittings from around the oil filter were causing it. I have like.. 5 fittings there, so I suspected one was (hopefully?) the culprit. It became immediately apparent as soon as I looked around more closely. 795d266d-a034-4b8c-89c9-d83860f5d00a.mp4       This is the R34 GTT oil sender connected via an adapter to an oil cooler block I have installed which runs AN lines to my cooler (and back). There's also an oil temp sensor on top.  Just after that video, I attempted to unthread the sensor to see if it's loose/worn and it disintegrated in my hand. So yes. I am glad I noticed that oil because it would appear that complete and utter catastrophic engine failure was about 1 second of engine runtime away. I did try to drill the fitting out, and only succeeded in drilling the middle hole much larger and now there's a... smooth hole in there with what looks like a damn sleeve still incredibly tight in there. Not really sure how to proceed from here. My options: 1) Find someone who can remove the stuck fitting, and use a steel adapter so it won't fatigue? (Female BSPT for the R34 sender to 1/8NPT male - HARD to find). IF it isn't possible to remove - Buy a new block ($320) and have someone tap a new 1/8NPT in the top of it ($????) and hope the steel adapter works better. 2) Buy a new block and give up on the OEM pressure sender for the dash entirely, and use the supplied 1/8 NPT for the oil temp sender. Having the oil pressure read 0 in the dash with the warning lamp will give me a lot of anxiety driving around. I do have the actual GM sensor/sender working, but it needs OBD2 as a gauge. If I'm datalogging I don't actually have a readout of what the gauge is currently displaying. 3) Other? Find a new location for the OEM sender? Though I don't know of anywhere that will work. I also don't know if a steel adapter is actually functionally smart here. It's clearly leveraged itself through vibration of the motor and snapped in half. This doesn't seem like a setup a smart person would replicate given the weight of the OEM sender. Still pretty happy being lucky for once and seeing this at the absolute last moment before bye bye motor in a big way, even if an adapter is apparently 6 weeks+ delivery and I have no way to free the current stuck/potentially destroyed threads in the current oil block.
