Hi, as i was looking for a car, i came across one with a rb25det, what i presume is stock turbo ("t28" he said), with a big fmic, at least 2.5" exhaust, aside from that i assume its relatively stock....

would this be capable of close to 185rwkw @ 10psi?

also what is the stock turbo on the rb25? is there any way to identify it? i looked around the site, but it doesnt seem to have definite "specs" for this. it seems almost assumed knowledge, which isnt good for those who dont know it :)

BullSh*t!! RB25DET....stock everything except fmic and exhaust isn't going to be anywhere near 185rwkw it would be around 130 to 135rwkw at the most. It has the potential for about 180 to 200rwkw but you would have to do a lot more than that to it.

I have 166.6 Rwkw with cat back exhaust and a pod filter.

Thats it. No boost .. no nothing

Check my gallery for dyno sheets

With a podfilter, full zorst and nothing else, mine did 149rwkw... nothing special, but it's the average figure for those mods, look at Knore's...

turns out he doesnt have a dyno sheet as the printer wasnt working

guess ill just have to wait and see how it goes. i guess even if it isnt really 189rwkw, the potential will be there if its got the fmic, properly boxed pod, reasonable exhaust (it measured 89dB, so maybe its bigger than the 2.5" he thinks it is? not sure on muffler) then it may have potential

hopefully it has a decent turbo on it, though ill have no idea how to tell (see this thread: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...ead.php?t=42546)

U will need a s-afc atleast to get 185rwkw with those other mods.

And dont believe dyno readings, u can make a dyno read as high as u want.

And 215rwkw from stock turbo seems very BS.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
