hi all

in my previous post I had a question about the nm35 stage engine vq25det.

the quality and style of these cars is a big bonus as is the power from the engine.

however due to really liking manuals and the ease of modifying the rb25det neo 6 engine.

I have decided to buy a 25t RS Four.

modifications planned once I have vehicle are as follows.

Link G4 plug in ecu ---- everything I have read suggests they plug straight into s2 stagea

Upgraded turbo ---- unsure on what specific one yet.

Electronic boost controller

Inlet air temp sensor

upgraded turbo back exhaust

Return Flow FMIC

AFM delete pipe

the Link G4 ecu comes built in with a MAP sensor so I want to go down that track of getting rid of the AFM

at this stage I wont be after too much power future modifications if I get the itch for more power ill add a front facing plenum change intercooler and upgrade injectors and exhaust/turbo manifold

hope it all goes to plan with no hickups and I will be posting pics I tend to go snap happy

There are hi-flow rebuild options for the standard turbo which should give you enough headroom for a while.

If youre going to start from a stock car, then theres probably a lot of groundwork maintenance to be done in the suspension for example.

work at pedders so shouldn't be too hard or costly to sort suspension out

Hi Jarrod & welcome. Why not buy a clean 260RS straight up & be done with it? For a while at least. :yes:

Cheers GW

I agree, little disappointed I didn't go down this route and settled for a rsfour, when really I should have waited and bought the right car the first time. Now don't get me wrong I love my car but sometimes which I had the manual option.

      Nismo front and back LSD

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      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.

      Coilover touching front upright arm?

      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).

      RP71C#2 speed sensor help please

      By EndZee · Posted

      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
