Hi guys,

I am currently building a rb30det with 30e block and r32 25de head. ACL bearings, OEM conrods, OEM pistons etc and ACL rings and the normal works on the head. Motor will be ready next week and i was going to run my motor in with a factory 25det turbo, question_ has anyone tried this?. and what sort of power were they gaining?. Im being realistic about the fact that im not expecting much HP from it. BTW im new to this site and thanks in advance for your time.

Cheers Tex.

Yea i thought running the new build in with a ser2 oem factory turbo with rev limiter set at 3500, all with factory ecu tune. Thats not bad for a 20 det oem turbo, so i will running with better numbers then ay. HX40 turbo is the next upgrade. Just good to know someone has tried it before i did

bottom line is they are old turbos and the kind of flow a 30 is going to give it I see a turbo failure in its very near future.

decide on your turbo setup and shell the $ for it and do it all at once. no point in scrimping at this stage. (but on that note, why go this far and also go for stock rods and pistons?).

otherwise, im sure hypergear can sort you with a suitable turbo for the application at a damned good price.

Stock rods are same as stock 30et rods and forged pistons are harder on the rings.Stock oem bits are proven over n over again by RIPS NZ for doing well over 600hp and still running stock,like i said im only using it to run the motor in.

fair enough. I hear you :)

just be careful with a stock turbo as there is the small chance that if it lets go (highly likely if u keep it on there very long or run it a boost) that when it lets go its will smash the compressor wheel and send it into the motor. Obviously requiring a rebuild...

Yes it will work, it'll make full boost by 2,000rpm LOL. It'll get you running so that's the main thing. No point thrashing it though, the turbo will be chocking. It will drive pretty much like a stocker RB25 but with a lot more off-idle/bottom end torque. Run 8psi max (or 5psi off the gate), once the engine is ready, put a GT3582R on it :P.

      Yeah I heard the same. Might be hard to order one. But then I guess can go to hks or go to a more expensive n1 block with tomei. Guess will jump the hurdle once I get there next upgrade around. I can’t get work done in the states as the lead time will take for ever on top of shipping to Hong Kong.

      https://www.platinumracingproducts.com/en-us/products/nissan-rb26-cast-blocks This is the solution I was thinking of. I would stay away from Tomei USA, their quality is a question mark to me. If you want an engine machined in the US contact Club DSPORT: https://clubdsport.com/ Tomei JP is probably fine but I recall they stopped doing pre-assembled short or long blocks. In general it's pretty tough to get any kind of RB26 block at the moment with Nissan so severely backordered.

      PAR specifically offers stock ratios in their gearset and you could do whatever ratios are physically possible supposedly for no extra cost. I agree 6 ratios is better than 5, the factory 2nd gear is equivalent to the Getrag 2nd gear if you account for the differing final drive ratio though. The Getrag 3rd gear with a 3.916 final drive is equivalent to a 1.6 2nd gear in the FS5R30A. I'm about to swap the transmission out on my car, I'm tempted to send the one I have now out for rebuild with the standard "cross ratio" gearsets out there to see if it really makes such a big difference the next time I pull the transmission.

      This is what I was looking at next:  https://www.z1motorsports.com/engines/tomei/tomei-rb26-28l-short-block-assemblies-p-45479.html as we can’t bore the cylinders out in hk so better just buy the whole lot in one and install then retune. Everyone saying the weak link are the bolts holding the rods together. I already did valve springs, arp head bolts, hks racing coils, nismo fuel pumps and pressure regulators, injectors etc for the top of the engine.
