Hi guys just a quick what is the most power you can get from a 2.5 neo engine from the skyline 25gt without going turbo or supercharged and what would kind of price Range are you looking at?
Is it possible to get around 300hp ?

If you don't mind spending about 20k on building an engine and then rebuilding it at every oil change then you might get 300hp. But it will drive like crap, use heaps of fuel and be exceptionally unreliable.

Should just by a magna ey Marc ;)

But yer not a hope of going 300hp (even at the flywheel), would need massive compression, huge cams, itbs.... Although, I shot of giggle gas would liven that boiled egg of an engine up :)

300hp is equal to 220kw, something which not even a stock r34 gt-turbo makes.

Anyways that being said, If you are keen on dishing out 5k+ some guy posted on youtube of his n/a r33. Got 140rwkw out of a N/a, which equates to around 200hp at the wheels.
Initially it was making 92rwkw, so considering its 140kw at the fly from facotry it should be: 140-96= 44kw. 140+44 = 184kw at the fly which is 250hp once modded. So if you spend 5k you can get 250hp, not impossible :P

He lists his mods in the description:

Up until the ferarri 458 came out, the F20C in the Honda s2000 was the most powerful naturally aspirated engine per litre in a car and that made approximately 124hp at the flywheel per litre. 248hp with 2.0L . The F20C is a supremely different engine to the Rb25de. the Rb25de was not made for power, that's what the Rb25det was for.

Is it possible to make 300hp from a smaller capacity N/A engine? Yes. Is it possible to make 300hp from an rb25de? Possibly. Can do you it for less then you'd make 500kw from an rb25det? No.

It's definitely not worth you time or money.

    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
