Hey guys

I hate to say this but i am a toyota nut! Have been for many years now and i am a member of toymods car club australia but recently my interst in skylines has become stronger and stronger and really want to buy one for my next car. The car i am looking at getting is a GTS r32 4dr as i really have a passion for the 4dr skylines.

Anyways just thought i would say hi!

Cheers Dean

don't be harsh on the newbie... not everyone has the same tastes/priorities in life as you.

welcome, and hope you can gain as much knowledge from here to make your skylining experience enjoyable.

hey mate

nice to see another one that has seen the stovetop lights.

seriously though.... there is more than just the engine that is different on the turbo and non turbo models...u'd be better off buying a gtst 4dr, atleast then you can sell the engine to recover some cash for your rb25... noone wants to pay much for an anchor though.

cheers

what happened to ur rb25 shan?

block's sitting in my garage recieving some TLC and hopefully soon some arias pistons. head's at a workshop, waitin to get polished when they get some spare time. Been spending more and more money and time in fixing the AE86's drivetrain n stuff so that it better suits the CA18, so my R32's is less of a priority. I want to have a good track car (not for drift like all the monkeys I speak to seem to assume) with all the problems fixed before it sees some serious work.

besides chris, where I work I get to drive all sorts of fun cars, so I don't really have the same urges as a pimply lil kid with an overpowered R33 GTSt :rofl:

De@No, buy or import an R32 4 Door GTSt or a cefiro... its a lot cheaper in the long run and a lot less headaches as an RB20 to RB25 swap isn't that easy... I'll be bold and say an RB20 to RB26DETT is an easier swap.

I thought the conversion wouldnt be that hard are the engine mounts different...ISnt the rb25det an alot more stronger motor than the rb20det and can withstand modification alot more?

i dunno... i looked at the wiring loom of an RB25 and an RB26 and the RB26 wiring loom looks more like hte RB20 one than the RB25 one.

I guess things like water pumps and fuel pumps have to be changed regardless. Maybe its just me thinking I've done the wrong thing by goin with an RB25 swap :D

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?
    • Summernats cruiser?
    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
