How experienced are you building engines?

First time? Based on the incredibly vague first question that's what I assume.

Comp ratio is a compromise relating to many factors. Boost, fuel, cams, head design etc.

Certainly not as simple as what's the best.

Although 500whp isn't that much so stock comp would do it with that turbo and fuel I imagine.

Hi Ben c34 yeah I am new to these engines as I have only owned mazda rotaries (complete different animal). But from the info I have gathered I have been told a stock cylinder head should be ok for what I am doing but I need to upgrade rods and pistons as well as mod crank snout for the longer oil gear. But I am probably going to stick with stock compression ratio.

Thanks

Richard

Yeah I am in the states and the places that sell en are like 45 minutes away. But thanks for all the info. Btw When using the stock head and stock head components what parts are known to have problems and If I did want extra insurance I am assuming just install valves and retainers.

Hi I am having the head reconditioned for sure. Then I was going to clean up cast marks in ports but mainly water jacket holes in cylinder head and I was thinking of running a line from cylinder head to sump. And widen the oil galleries on head and block.

I think a GT3582R will be quite laggy on an RB25 with the std CR on your 93 octane . In the US with things like the 3076 and 3582 HTAs available I think you can do better .

With non standard manifolds the EFRs are probably better again particularly on pump gas because their turbines tend to be larger in relation to their compressors than most other turbo suppliers . You should be able to get 500 from a 7064 or a 7670 with better turbine response/transients than most other makes .

Having less inertia and exhaust restriction is the go IMO .

I was talking specifically about the lifters.

      We have a huge update coming in the next few months, version 5 of Invision will be released. I'm holding off any changes until after this change as I'm not sure what features will be removed or introduced.

      Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga

      yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
