it SHOULD be the same as the 25 and 20 run the same auto, you might be struggling to find one off a 26 tho!, i would try to get a new ring gear and get that welded on, a job best left to an experienced trans specialist

thanks for the reply. Im a competent welder so i think I could take this one on. Where does one buy ring gears, who makes em? Google search shows nothing in Oz.

must be pretty bad, maybe score a good secondhand one and reverse the ring gear on that if possible, i see what you mean trying to get one here in aus, plenty in the US, would it be worth you trying NISSAN for a price on a new ring gear?

nah. . im kind of attached to them but thankyou for asking! still give nissan spare parts a shot; you might be suprised; not everything they have is super expensive~ for example i picked drivers side door hinges for my r32 for less than what you see them secondhand on ebay

couple of sauers have msg'ed me that they have a used flexplate of their Rb25's so thinking going the transplant route provided teeth are reasonably sound.

But I'll call into Nissan spares tomorrow with a portable defibrillator ( jic) and ask the question.

      Does RB25DE Neo lower intake work with RB25DET Neo Upper intake manifold?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I said Garrett style. Not Garrett genuine. And something in the G30 550 range is what you want. Not those pokey little old fashioned T28 sized things. The intake ports in the head are small. There is little benefit in fattening up the runners and leaving ths actual ports small. Just run what you've got. And on the subject of Nistune vs Haltech etc..... You know you can control the transmission with decent standalone ECUs these days, right? No need to keep any of that old Nissan bullshit. Don't get me wrong - I use Nistune on my Neo. But it is a DET, so the number of bodges and workarounds I had to do to make it work in a chassis without ABS, TCS, etc, is quite small compared to the herniated arsehole you will have trying to make it work on a motor that doesn't have some of the things that the turbo ECU wants to see. Just easier to bite the bullet and go aftermarket outright.

      Hmm. Only when the f**king thing is actually working. Still can't find the leak. And that's with dye being put in the last 3 times!

      By R34_GT to Turbo · Posted

      Ok so will run the piping over that radiator and no plenum it is. Put that money towards a Haltech and see what suits. Any ideas something like an elite 2000 or 2500 right? My long term goal is 300kw e85 and manual swap and that’s a dream come true. For now will be 200kw and auto the stock rb25det neo intake isn’t too expensive with throttle body. If I was to have the port matching done, Would that be better than the stock de intake as the det has bigger holes plus has the spots for sensors etc? And suit more long term?  appreciate the advice?

      You understand AFR is not the only thing that contributes to it pinging yeah? Funnily, what the AFR gauge will tell you when it likely is pinging, is going to make you think things are really safe and good.
