I've got some pics of the white one from WTAC a few years back, pretty sure it had bonnet spacers and looked odd.... But put out good power.... With the amount you can get out of a stock NEO with the right bolt ons kind of makes most builds seem a waste.... When mine pops I'll put another NEO in for less than $2k and go again :)

OP - what are you trying to achieve? NEO motor is a good piece of kit. RB26 might not be the best way to spend your time and money.

What i want to look at building a motor for is to eventually turn the car more into a track car than a daily drive and just the hobby of building a motor :happy:

but what sort of power can you get out of a 25 opened/ unopened safely vs the 26

i want to have a motor that i can give it a thrashing without having to worry all the time about breaking things.

what are your ideas on the 2 motors and what they are capable of, i mean you are going to know alot more than me im only new to the skyline scene and just trying to bead in the right direction haha.

thanks guys any info is appreciated and taken on board

Hey all,

I live around Newcastle and im new to the skyline scene and looking to establish a relationship with a good tuner to get any work done, get the car tuned etc and all round know alot about skylines,

any ideas and experiences would be great.

Cheers,

James

Hi James, I can see you're new. Going over your topics, they have been done to death... Do us all a favour and SEARCH!

My stock NEO is making perfect power for track, drift, drag or whatever you want to throw at it.... It's near undrivable on full boost, at the end of the day the NEO can out power the driver if done right.....

but what sort of power can you get out of a 25 opened/ unopened safely vs the 26

NEO has the same strong rods as the RB26. Crank is never a problem, so the only diff in bottom end strength is pistons, but i dont know how they compare. NEO also has solid cams, so while 26s are a decent step up from early 25s, you cant say the same with NEO vs 26.

alot of effort for an extra 44cc or whatever it is and a slighty better flowing head

Eh, I don't really know if the RB26 goes better than the NEO head.

Let's face it, unless you really want Twin turbos and ITBs, there is no reason to ditch the NEO in favour of the 26.

I have heard the Neo has the highest flowing head out of all the RB engines.

ITB's on the 26 are cool though!

    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
