Rb25DET conversion is now complete

[blind_elk]

I've recently install a Stagea C34 RB25DET and a Wolf 3D v4+ into my R32 GTS4. It seemed to have a bit more mumbo than the old RB20DET, but I didn't realise until I had it mapped on the dyno today.

Early on, it was detonating it's brains, and no subtraction of timing seemed to cure it. It looked like I would be stuck with a paltry gain of only around 15 awkw (I was only getting about 130 awkw, compared with its last outing of 115 awkw with the RB20). Then we threw fuel at it, and everything started to work.

The result:

178.4 AWKW

runing 10psi, on 95 octane Caltex Vortex shyte (I'll bite the bullet and run Ultimate or Synergy in future). May not be a lot to some of you, but I'm rapt.

Nice.

Is the C34 engine more like the R33 or R34 RB25? ie is it a Neo engine?

[cameron]

well done sounds nice!

Are you going to be taking it down the quater mile ? I'd be interested to see how it performs.

MIC, more like the R33 - doesn't have traction control, but does have VVT.

Cam - not really a drags person, but might take it to the off-streets one Friday night to see what it can do.

Great to hear Greg. From GTR comparisons that's a bit over 200rwkw so nothing wrong with that. I bet there is a big smile on the dial

Don't break nothin' at the drags. Lets see it on track;) Pity I won't make the training day as I already booked the Maser day which is timed.

just out of interest how much did it cost all up? I've been thinking about doing a RB25 conversion.
