Hi everyone,

I have just purchased a rb25det for bargin of a price, only slight problem is the engine is damage. Ive been told that 2 pistons are damaged, which isnt confirmed, im hoping the ringlands are damaged instead of the pistons.

Been reading on the forums that alot of RB25det have problems with ringlands being damage due to high boost.

I know that the engine was running pretty high boost with factory cooler.

My plans for the engine is to take the engine apart find out exactly what is damaged, if pistons are blown, should i invest in forged pistons or should i just find a new factory pistons?

I also plan to port the heads, and cams. thats all for engine work.

The turbo charged of choice is HKS or Garrett GT3037 with an external wastegate & a new manifold, and maybe get a trust plenum to tidy up the intercooler pipe work.

I plan for the car to be an everyday car. Im only wanting to hit 250-260rwkw.

Is what im doin overkill?....any advice would be greatfull.

Thanks,

Joe.

I have got a r32 gtst with a r33 intercooler/fuel pump. Got a r32 Power FC. Once the engine goes in the car i will sell the r32 gtst power fc & buy a r33 power fc.

I also got a Os Giken twin plate clutch (still using the r32 gearbox untill it blows)

550cc injectors.

So ECU & hopefully the fuel department is taken care of.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
