Hi Guys haven't been on here for some time but I am looking at rebuilding my RB25Det in the R33.
as I have low compression in one of the cylinders.

looking at going the forged path..... motor was making close to 300rwkw on the standard motor with the other mods.
(450hp Garrett BB turbo, Nismo 555 injectors, cams, Altronic ecu, large exhaust & FMIC)

Is there any good places or websites to buy parts for a forged rebuild or kit?

  • Forged H Beam Conrods
  • Forged Pistons
  • Head Gasket
  • ACL Race Series Main Bearings
  • ACL Race Series Main Bearings
  • ARP stud kit
  • Gasket kit

    Will get the block machined, what else will be needed?
    the car is street driven (weekends), might a track day in the future.

I have a stock motor that goes to the track every 2 months or so making well over 300kW and it gets the shit thrashed out of it.

Best move for you, install a stock RB25DET NEO motor, a GTX3576, twin gates, twin screamers and spend the change on cocaine and strippers.

research:

stock RB25DET NEO

ARP headstuds

E85

1150cc or 2200 Injectors

Walbro E85 450L pump by TI Automotive

Continental Flex sensor

Adaptronic/Haltech/Nistune (R35 / HPX AFM if going Nistune)/ViPec or whatever makes you hard

Anything billet turbo, such as Hypergear SS2

Great guys to deal with, maybe not the cheapest around but quick delivery, can return unused parts, and he will order in anything specific if he doesn't have it.

Check out his Facebook page, often does nice giveaways and he actually has a few nice random shop cars aswell

I got all my bits from CJ motors, give them a call and see what they can offer.

To run big boost, I recommend a set of Super tech valve springs and valve sets.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • 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
