crack.

Only VVT on inlet cam. Exhaust is still simple pulley.

the VVT is a constantly variable style, insted of Two step like the R33

Completly different head casting, uncompatible with previous ones, higher compression, lots of things..

this has been covered heaps before, try a search including the words "Neo Straight 6"

Its just a plastic engine cover on the R34 GTT engines, they're still RB25DET's except with the features crack listed

Its so gay how they put big engine covers on all new cars these days... you pop the bonnet of a new monaro & all you see is plastic... OWww thats good...:thumbdwn:

I see, so they implemented it preety good then nissan...

If a car has good tyres and good balance, i don't really see why traction control is neccesary, its all about throttle control.

Obviously your old girl, just tramps it all the time, you have to tell her it isn't a hyundai :D

While we are on the subject, how good is the traction control on them, a worthy feature or bit of a gimmick? i.e. just for dodgy drivers or is it beneficial

I think anyone who really likes driving & pushing their car to its limits will like no traction control, no HICAS, & no electronically assisted actions. Its good to know how the car will react when you corner, brake, & throttle from your own body movements. My r33 gtst suits me best with no traction control & an aftermarket 2way LSD installed spreading the power 50/50 makes the rear predictable too :)

BUT Most people arnt like me & simply drive cars to get from A to B so this is when traction control in the r34 is good.

RB30

I'd never let my Mum drive my car.

She'd have a heart attack as soon as she hit the throttle.

My old girl has driven my turbo car from time to time.

I find turbo cars, really safe, in a turbo you only get power when you open it up heaps, a grumpy v8 on the other hand....

Spot on mate, I'd prefer most of it gone on the track but daily driving in the wet it's a god sent. Although with my hard suspension setup i drive with it off in the dry as it's too sensative.

Bass - I agree, the Neo engine looks sucky under that cover....

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
