If the OP wants to waste his money on going backwards in performance then good on him. Who are we to tell someone how to spend there money, even if it's being wasted.

All we can do is just put palm to face and move on. The real bagging can happen if the practical results don't meet the OP's claims, we hope he'll post up final results regardless.

Ok a bit of an update head was checked by me and was bent it can be straightened. The straightening will increase compression greatly but he 25 block will drop it greatly so I have some numbers to play with :) So far the head is going to cost me about 2500 I plan on spending 2k on the computer and ignition so to come under the 10k mark it leaves me with 5k for block and fuel system. Costs will blow out so I have to play it safe with my money.

The head price is service,porting,machining and a cam.

Hang on.... So the head is warped. If you plan on straightening it by just milling the face, the cam shaft wont fit correctly as the tunnel would also be warped.

If you anticipate the comp will rise significantly by machining the head to straighten it, it would definitively not be consistent across the cylinders, as the warp means more material will be removed from certain areas.

Anyway, all the best with the build, it's certainly something different :)

Already got one bro but the build on that will be epic when I can afford it. The 25/30 will be turbo and forecasts are in the region of 30k for that build the 30/25 will be cheap as possible porting and chamber work will be the big cost.

Far out bro, i think this whole build is rediculous and throwing away money u won't get back, hope u realise a 2JZ is good for 600hp stock internals!! The worlds fastest NA-Turbo supra runs 7.77, thats right with NA Bottom end!! Even a 1JZ VVT will make rediculous power and has higher potential over 33 rb25 and will last longer. U can buy these motors with everything u need for way less.

But if u want most bang 4 ya buck, i'd go rb25 neo - More torque over r33, stronger internals, VVT, newer/lesskm's. Just thrown on a head gasket and youre good to go for some serious HP depending on supporting mods. Like others said it's in you're best interests, both HP and financially to cut youre losses and stop b4 it gets way out of hand!

I dont mind a 30/30 as the single cam can be ported and get good power, but next you'll be saying to scap the E and go with C (Carby) to get more power.

You've turned a RB25DET into a RB25DEBT, cuz b4 it even turns over youll have no money left.

Got any proof of this 7.7 second natro supra? cause I call bullshit. up until recently the turbo and supercharged engines were running those sorts of times, and that's with over 1000hp. there is no way you'll get that sort of power from a natro 2jz. sure they may be using a natro bottom end on the motors, but they will have a massive amount of boost going into it

Correct me if I'm wrong (Can't be f**ked re reading his post) but he did say NA Bottom end, turbo on top...

I am not building a turbo engine. As for bottom ends you have no idea I will be using different pistons as the 25 pistons will drop the compression the head is bent so after machining I hope to see near 12:1.

Con rods will be changed other than that the rest is identical thinking AM forge I beams or peen'd and machined 26 rods"..

OMG all this 4 non turbo? Why would u waste all youre money and youre mates time on this when its gona just suck, i'm only saying this to save u the money because afterwards u will regret it.

Hell u can get r33 turbo manuals for 6 grand on ebay and that includes the car lol. Now in complete stock standard form it will make the same amount of power u will make, but then if it comes with mds and high boost it will blow youre NA out the water

I don't care if this does not make 11ty billion killer wasps I still don't understand what the fuss is over peak power figures ffs. I have no care for dick size contests the engine I will build will be plenty fast for my needs.

Also this is the n/a section of the forum not the turbo section so why are you intent on annoying me with turbo this and turbo that.

Edited by pf.

But why not spend the money doing this with a 25 or 26 head?

The reasons have been mentioned in previous posts but ill give you the cliffs version.

There is no point of having more flow if it is not required the 30 head will be cheaper and provide me with all I need.

All I'm saying is, my motors bigger than yours :whistling:

It's a completely mind fark concept of a project.... I can't wait for the day (and you will have one) after it's all together and paid for and you put it on a dyno and go "oh... ok, maybe i should of listened to those guys on that Internet thingamo" and then (I like this part) your going to look at your little pile of recipts in your hand and quickly do the sums in your head, then swear, and think to yourself "for this money I could of made 3 times this amount of power.... Good thing i don't care about power". Which boggles my mind as that if you don't care about power, why try and build a "performance" engine?

And then this will most likely be my favourite part, when you come back here with figures and we're all going to laugh at you and say we told you so :thumbsup:

Abort mission son, ABORT!

Guys, STFU.

He has a turbo motor he's building, lets see what he can do with this one. He's confident it'll give good gains, and mate our theory is wrong.

So lets let him spend HIS money in PEACE and get us some actual facts.

It sounds like it'll then be a good comparison to Greg's 25/30

Gregs was a 26/30 ;)

Gregs was a 26/30 ;)

I know, and that's why it'll be interesting to compare.

This is going to be pretty much the opposite.

OP Feels this will make the same, if not more power then a 25/30 N/A as he's staying SOHC. So it will be a good comparison.

    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋 
    • Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
    • So while the second sentence is completely correct and the whole point of the conversation, the first sentence bears consideration. If this bloke is just hoping to throw big turbos on and drive it around, because there are no helpful facilities at all in his tropical paradise** then he likely has zero chance of even knowing what the TP is on the last column in the stock maps, let alone know whether the ECU is operating anywhere near it or past it. So the point is very very moot. And, per what I said before, at stock boost on those turbos, you may well be off the end of the map. **I'm just back from Vanuatu, so I know exactly what small Pacific nations can be like wrt paradise without requisite facilities. But it's not even that simple. I put a high flow on my car and had to drive it around without a proper tune because of the lack of opportunity*** to put the bigger AFM and injectors into it to allow it to be tuned. I had to turn the boost down to less than I had before, and back off the boost controller's ramp, because it was exploring parts of the map that it didn't drive in before, and really couldn't access for tuning on the dyno either, and so was pinging. It was still well within the last column, because when I first**** set up the Nistune on the Neo I rescaled all axes of the maps to give some more space to explore. ***Family dyno was broken ****This was 13 years ago, and the TIM thing wasn't a thing then and so TP would definitely grow when pushing past the stock tune's limits.
