Depending on what head you plan on using...since you are using the rb25de head, you have no vvt. So the best option would be to use the rb20det loom as it has no vvt as well, and the rb20det Power FC...make sense?

I think the best place to start is what car do you currently have? Then work from there.

My preference would be to use an RB25DET PFc if you can. You dont need to have it running the vvt, and it is $400 cheaper.

Do all years of RB25DET have variable valve timing?

The project car the motor is for is a 260Z, so that is neither here nor there but it does allow me to have free range of what skyline parts to use.

Are all the sensors common between the RB25DE and the RB20DET i.e. will the loom plug into everything or will some chopping and changing need to be done.

Will this affect injector style?

R32 came out with the two engines =Rb20det, Rb25de....

I assumed you were putting it in a different type of car other than a skyline....

saying that the sensors might not be the same between the rb25det and rb20/25de...not so sure if they are compaitble, which may mean getting all 25det sensors...added cost

I got my Power FC and HC for $1600 brand new...not too expensive. They do come up now and again, and arnt hard to get hold of.

yup Ap Engineering version on the RB31DET.

Ive got a mate Using a RB25de (with 26 internals) and he is using the rb20det loom, using the 25de knock and oil pressure sensors. The only difference in the two is the AAC valve i think...check the difference between the two engine sensors (ie rb20 to 25de) to see if there any different. I did and only came up with the AAC valve being different between the two models....and use a rb20 afm :D

edit/ the rb25de and rb20det use the same injectors - top feed red tops...same cc as well i think....

I'm also using an AP PowerFC & H/C for the RB30DET that I picked up for $1100 delivered, 1 year old.

With your setup you will need the RB20DET loom and an AP Engineering PowerFC.

The injectors and sensors between the R32 RB25DE & R32 RB20DET are the same.

If you went with the R33's VCT head obviously the use of a R33 RB25DET loom and RB25DET powerfc would be required.

I'm unsure if the R32 RB25DE loom has the extra's such as MAP sensor & knock sensor wires running back to the ecu. I would have to check the wiring diag in the engine manual. Either way its not hard to run a couple of wires you are missing back to the ecu.

Ok cool, thankx. soory to be a pain but would it be too much trouble to check the wiring diagram?? just trying to get out of changing over to the rb20det loom, could i use the 25de loom with the addition of an aftermarket boost controller? thanks again mate, help is much appreciated.

I wouldn't worry too much about the N/A and turbo loom differences.

Wires can always been ran back to the ecu. All you need is the pinout.

If you want the r32/r33 engine manual let me know. It contains the wiring diags.

I decided to throw a few x 3 Jonnie Walker cans back tonight (with family) so I'm kind of tanked. No good me looking at a wiring diagram. :rolleyes:

hehe sounds good. Mate would it be alot of trouble of for you to e-mail me the engine wiring diagrams? so u rekon i could use the 25de loom and use a boost controller for the turbo, along with the programmable FC to suit an rb20det? harrr what a mouth ful!again, many thanks for the help...

    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
