Something Different? Rb25De Neo R34


Recommended Posts

After looking at rb30 conversions using det heads, I was thinking of swapping the head of my NA neo rb25 for the det neo head and running a forward facing inlet plenum. Was wondering if anyone out there has done or heard of anything like this?? I know I'd have to make a custom intake, swap the battery sides and probably run the det AAC/IAC and maybe TPS? Any opinions?

i wouldn't bother! save the money and spend it else where (brakes, diff, suspension etc)

the NA head is made to work in conjunction with the NA block, the DET head will most likely lower the compression and make it drive like a dog.

Brakes, suspension has all been upgraded, the only thing I could think of to keep the NA head would be customize the forward facing plenum to suit (the inlet ports that is), could be expensive I know but, I've seen it done.

Being a natro the vertical and central design of the runers is cruicial for making torque, forward facing plenum will result in unequal runner lengths and I'll lose power and mid/low range torque (and being a natro U don't want that)

Det heads as far as I'm aware run the 237 degree cams same as the natro, but unsure if it'd drop the compression (could always use a thinner head gasket)

Mmm if I want to do a 25/30 natro it can be done but your best bet is with a non VCT r32 rb25de head, be prepared to spend a lot of money... And still won't make huge power figures.

    • What’s wrong with 2.6 first gear? I’ve done lots of 2nd gear starts from almost a dead stop and it just requires more clutch slip. A 2.6 first gear would be easier than that. I feel like the stock first gear is only good for severe traffic congestion where you need to be able to do 5 kph idling in first gear. Out in the US 120 kph is a very normal speed to be doing on the highways. If anything it’s slow, I regularly get passed by CA highway patrol doing that kind of speed. Out in the desert and plains even 18 wheelers are doing 130-140 kph. I would be less down on the Getrag if not for the fact that they cost north of 10k USD used and you’ll spend probably another 5k on a rebuild at least. I got my FS5R30A from Nissan for 1.5k USD. The cost of building one is maybe an extra 3-4k if you keep it reasonable. The final drive change to account for the 0.793 6th gear is also a pain to deal with. 
    • Usually the lower mount has a thicker/wider side, see image of the right side of the lower shock mount. Don't see why a couple of washers wouldn't do the same job.
    • Counter opinon. Having both an OS gearset car and the getrag 6 speed, will take the 6 speed for the street all day long thanks. First gear on most gear sets are ASS, the bloody gear you spend heaps of time in on the street too.   I run the 4.11 and it is fine at 110, (not sure who gets to do 120)  I do find the gears a little short and doing a 3.89 setup.    Anyway back to your question, running stock LSD rear, love it. Tried an S15 helical rear, it was aweful. In the process of doing a quaife front on advice as part of the 3.89. Seems like a good option. Let you know     Car is 800awhp and mostly street.       
    • I do the online time trials to get silver (1mil credits). Currently the EG at Tsukuba I got 1:14.015. Show me what you got! (Don't take it too seriously I only use the controller, CBF setting up G29).
    • So I’m looking for rb20det sensor or rb25de. Is this possible that ka24de/sr20 also could work? How much teeth is for small box sensor? 21? Does diameter size vary between these gearboxes?  https://youtu.be/VPhkpdEH7Lg?si=uGF2tLuAM6Mb5LF2
