Hi All,

I have been asking around performance shops about my question. I wanted to know whether the manifold mounting for NEO RB25DE is identical to the NEO RB25DET, RB25DE or RB25DET. ADVAN Racing performance have told me that the mounting on all RB25 series are identical. Can anybody help me?

haha the magic question :)

Yeah I stuck an R33 manifold and turbo on my one....but for the love of god get a MOTEC or Power FC or some sort of computer that is fully programmable...the 25GT ECU is a complete bastard with piggyback systems.

=) thats good news...

so the r33 manifold will simply bolt on my neo rb25de, what set-up have u got on urs if u dont mind me asking....any suggestion on how i can put together my turbo...what would be the simplest conversion for now?

Thanks

Are you saying that it is possible to use the Power FC ECU for RB25DET in the Turbo converted NA car such as yours?

Yes it is...I'd go as far as to get the power FC for the N/A actually, unless the GT-t version comes with a MAP sensor...as chasing up the MAP sensor from a GT-t is getting to be a headache! But apart from that it just plugs straight in!

I am considering an R34 RB25DE (from an R32 GTS4) and I guess I'm a little worried about going from a turbo to non-turbo. What power does an RB25DE run at? Did you guys think it would be enough for you and it wasn't?

I never thought the RB25DE would be enough power :P Just when I bought my car a long time ago, the price of a GT-t was still in the $60K+ bracket so the 25GT was the only option for me to have an R34.

They deliver around 147Kw, so not what I'd class as amazing, that's why I put the turbo on my one.

Can't speak for anyone else, but for me, it was about buying an R34 for a decent price. The RB25DE still has a fair bit of poke due to the NEO, but for me, I had to have a turbo, so I swapped on in.

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
