OK Dyno queens,

Whats the most powerfull RB25DET engined car you have seen in Australia ??

No NOS, water injection, methonol or anything like that - Just good ol' turbo luving ! No RB25 with a RB26 Head - No 3.0 litre bottome ends - Just a nicely worked RB25DET.

No BS stories please - post facts and back them up - turbo sizes, engine specs and all !

Cheers,

I'm just interested Chris - I am still wanting to reach that goal as my view is that anything over 300rwkw for the circuit is a waste (unless awd). > 300rwkw is good for Drags and Dyno queens like me :P

Besides, before I make the move to approx 300rwkw with good response - I wanna see if I can attain a good number for Dyno Queen purposes ;)

What do OBEHVE? JMS R33 do ?? ?? I think I read a mag once where someone got about 346rwkw out of an RB25DET.

Don't get me wrong - it's not what is at the top of the curve, its what is underneath the curve that counts. But hey everyone wants to be a bit of a wanker once in ther lives ;) ha ha ha

I thought there would be some 500+rwkw monsters out there?

if there were no rb26dett and the rb25det were the 'best' engine that nissan offered in the skyline, then i'm sure more people would have pushed their money into the rb25...

(not to say its not capable of these figures because i'm sure it is)

380kW @ rears on sunoco unleaded in the BU5TER.  Std internals and still with RB25DET head.

That was pretty well the start of the end though, I'd be quoting 330rwkw for mine even though I've got 1/2 a dozen higher power figures from very friendly dynos and the one 380rwkw figure which really never made it off the dyno hahaha, I raced it with 330rwkw never raced it or drove it with any more power so 330 it is :)

Mine had stock internals aswell as standard head gasket, but a shit load of bolt ons

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
