I guess all these power gaining mods tend to loose all of the available low end torque our RB20's have hey.

It might be nice to try the cylinder head off of your GTS4 TurboX, but I like the smaller chamber of the DE engine.

Hey Boostn32, is your ride a street RB20 or race only?

Turbine

i have a RB20DET in my s13 but yet to put it on the dyno do any of you guys know what i should expect power wise

RB20DET

VG30DET turbo

SAFC11

Fuel pump

600/300/100 FMIC

Drift zorst 3inch

High flow cat

Boost at 1 Bar

What should i expect with this sut up

I still need a engine management but i am undecided on what to get any suggestions

its a Drift car, but will be used on the street as well, but then again i will be drifting it, doing track days and drags, its only a matter of suspension setup to suit what im doing. this car wont be a daily driver, more like a weekend toy and track car.

ok the engine build begins tonight, will add pics as i go. this is the engine im chasing 300rwkw+

Can you tell me what crank you will be using? As you are using the same turbo as me, im interested to know if we can compare our resutls. A std Rb20 vs an RB20 with headowrk, cams etc etc

A quick comparo of some of the setups that have been posted in the sticky thread. I would have put more on, except its hard to retain clairty, thats why i split the boost and power curves as ven when plotted on different Y-Axis, with so many lines it was confusing.

Ans apologies to those i didnt add, its just that i grabbed a few different tubo setups that were dunod using road speed, as i dont have my spreadsheet to change road speed into rpm

But needless to say FATGTS-R is leaving us all for dead at the moment :D Carl H is with him but cant match him until that GT30R leaps onto boost

edited to be all in one plot

RB20_Comparo1.JPG

I dunno if its right, i just hot plot once i entered it into a spreasheet, thoguh lookign at it ...it does look wrong. ill get back to yah...you should be way over us all :P

LOL...fixed now. Just the one plot...only yours was in black so could be seen against the backgraound when i changed the colour from white to black ;)

LOL..its still not right as you can see my boost curve...ill try again alter tonight when i get a minute

ok well i didnt get started as yet, spent all day cleaning parts again and re-checking all the clearances.

Just thought i would add im using a RB26 water pump as the blades are 11mm wide instead of the RB20 that have 8mm wide blades, they bold straight on and reccomend that anyone that is replacing there water pump to use a RB26 one, im also using a RB26 oil pump, not sure if it fits but i will let every one know how it goes

roy u have done something funky with the bottom end of the graph

for instance at 95km/hr im making 75rwkw and your making about 80rwkw

but on the comparo graph ur making 160rwkw and im making 120rwkw

i think ur giving the rb20 bottom end a bit too much credit :D

LOL...farkin spreadsheets :D I was bored at work and trying to do it covertly. Im half pissed and bored at 12.30am in a hotel...ill try again but cant guarantee the result will be any better considering the state im in :D

that 4th gear comparo for road speed to revs...cool, i need my spreadsheet on my laptop to work it out accurately. What sized tyres have you assumed, (tyre circumference)???

    • Apologies for the long post, but needed somewhere to lay out the entire timeline of events and actions taken:   I've got an 89 GTR with a R34 RB in it. It's been running great all year, driven probably 500KM in the last month. It's not my daily driver, just a weekend fun car.    Build info: R34 RB26 - HKS 2.7 stroker kit, HKS adjustable cam gears, HKS turbo upgrades, Trust intercooler, R34 factory DENSO 440cc injectors, JUN chipped/tuned R32 ECU. All of this work was performed in Japan back in 2019.    Thursday 10/2/25 - It's a nice day and decided I'll drive it to work, I start it up in the garage and I notice it took a few extra cranks and sounded a bit funny. I figure maybe it was just because it was a pretty chilly morning. I pull it out into the driveway to warm up a bit before leaving. As I leave the driveway, it feels very off and sounds like a misfire. I pull it back in the garage to deal with after work and take the daily to work. I was able to diagnose it as a cylinder 5 misfire with the old spark plug test (unplugging each plug until a sound change with the engine running). I take off the whole ignition system, ignitor, plugs, spark. *Important note, it is still on the R32 ignition system with the separate ignitor system. I test each system with a multi-meter and nothing presents as a smoking gun. I put it all back together and it starts up no issue. I go ahead and order the PRP R35 ignition conversion kit. It should arrive today (10/13/25)   Friday 10/3/25 - Another nice day, car starts up great and drives great all day. Very pleased that everything seems to be OK   Sunday 10/5/25 - Decided I'll take it to play some golf, load up and drive to the course about 25 minutes away. Drives wonderful the whole way there, I pull in the parking lot and the engine completely comes to a stop. I do not recall if it sputtered at all, but just remember all of the sudden the engine was off. I roll it into a parking spot, try to crank it back on and nothing.  It'll crank and crank and not even try to start. End up getting it towed back to my house and push it up into the garage.    Items I have checked: Fuel in the tank Fuel Pump relay Fuel pump fuse  Spark Plugs & gap Coil packs Ignitor    I know the cylinders are getting fuel as the plugs smell like fuel after a start attempt. I tried spraying starter fluid into the manifold and cranking and not even a sputter.    I decided to do the live CAS test (removing the the CAS, ignition on and spinning the CAS stalk to see if the injectors pulse and spark is active). All of the injectors were pulsing and I have spark at the plug. The half-moon end of the CAS did seem very loose, I'm not sure how much play is supposed to be there, but it was more than I expected. There was no in/out play of the shaft, just the tip end that is pinned on had quite a bit of play.    CAS Play video   When I put the CAS back in, I stupidly did not re-time the engine. I know I need to do that tonight, however, I do not think it will start given it seemingly was not the issue. My plan is to do the PRP R35 coil kit and retime the engine at the same time.    I plan on ordering the Haltech Nexus Plug-in ECU once they are available again, but ideally would like to get this sorted before firing the parts cannon at it and potentially adding more variables.    Anything glaring that I am missing here, I'm a bit at a loss?          
    • Get it on a dyno. Get something logging Consult. Run it up and find out what is causing it.
    • Looking for a plenum for rb25 de+t neo  Not looking to push much power maybe 300kw at the wheels, is there much difference in flow for Freddy “Greddy style” compared to original Greddy or options like Proflow or Otaku garage?    I won’t be porting the de Neo head for now as I think it’ll be fine 280-300rwkw but appreciate the help and any experiences anyone has between them and any advice. Thanks  Looking at this plenum for now below 
    • engine wise almost no mods: stock ecu Greddy front mount intercooler Greddy forward facing intake w R33 TB stock fuel system, stock injectors, rail etc. Kakimoto racing hyper 3 inch exhaust system Apexi intake filter New NGK –R BCPRES (.8 gap) plugs  
    • Nice one @Pac - looks like a fair few 1600's there!
