Hey everyone,

So this is my first post, but not my first forum. I've searched this for a while now and havent come up with anything.

I LOVE the r34. Everything about it. My plan is to get an ENR34 Coupe. I would like the AWD because 1. It's AWD ;) 2. I live in Canada, and would like the AWD because I will probably have to drive the car in snow. So I was wondering, would it be possible/practical to throw an N/A 2jzge into the r34? Or would it make more sense to save up and just turbo the RB? I don't want a lot of power, I previously drove a 2000 Acura TL (or Honda Inspire. Excuse my ignorance, I don't know if you guys in Australia go by the Japanese names or Americanized). Anyway, that car had a Vtec J32 pushed about 225hp (sorry I dont know the conversion to KW) and it wasn't the fastest, but I liked it. So I don't need Godzilla, I just love the look of the Skyline. Now I know the 2jz is a great motor that you can pull a good amount of power out of with just bolt ons. I also know the rb25 n/a is the opposite lol. So what do you guys think? 2jz with bolt ons, or low boosted rb25?

Hmm 2jz on a AWD drivetrain. Not gonna work well, gonna be dumping a load of cash. If you love the r34 so much you probably wouldnt be wanting to sabotage that nissan integrity witha 2jz. Probably better off finding a stagea with a rb25det, and doing a swap. If i were you, id probably just go r34 GTR, its not over the top powerful from factory (320hp?), In fact its actually average for a turbo charged car, it just known to have huge potential for power with minor mods/cost.

Oh I'd love a GTR but I can't afford it, and I'd probably never get insured here lol. Anyway, V28VX37, my plan is to get a factory awd skyline gt-4, id just like to know the best (and least expensive) way to get about 300hp out of it. From what I've read, it seems like its gonna be costly to get an rb25 to that point. So I thought about swapping to a faster n/a motor, again, cost factor (instead of swapping to something like 26dett. too much $$). Or, how much would I be looking at to get the rb25 to about 300hp? Bc like Deza said, I would like to keep the motor nissan ;)

I read on a thread here, that the word (including pictures) on the Stagea/AWD RB25DET is that the block is direct copy of the RB26DETT, due to the AWD sump not working with the RWD RB25DET block. Apparently the series 2 has the same rods as the RB26DETT as well.

The series 2 C34 NEO setup would be the go. 206kw (276bhp) at the crank standard. Turbo spool about 1800RPM full boost about 2200rpm with lots more potential!

Don't know what mine is putting out, but I run it at 10.5psi with a decent (GFB G-Force II) electronic boost controller, a HKS panel filter & a Kakimoto 3 1/4" cat back (way to big & not benecificial I know). Nistune is the next thing on the cards, as it's a daily.

    • Just had this happen to me too.  R32 GTR.   Also broke "just before going out onto the track" - someone up there is looking out for us... Very scary since I was about to do a narrow street course with zero run-off and curbs everywhere. Many people on here upgrading to billet uprights and R35 bearings?   Or buying new OEM knuckles?  I am not keen to replace with another s/h 30 year old fatigued part.
    • Top off with distilled water and see what happens. If you keep losing coolant then you know to start looking.
    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
