Going from an exa to a 250+rwkw and only been driving for 2 years, look out people who live near the poo farm :Pimp2:

I would keep some $$ in reserve as its already had an engine sway so you cant say how many km's its done or what condition the engine is in as for 11k its very check with all that gear.

I would imagine it would have some sort of management assistance, obviously all the mods aren't listed and I wont know until it lands.

Wont ship out for a few weeks so will be here in around 2 months.

i am going to get everything looked over again and again, the beauty of doing business with work shops is that when you need a favor back its there :) Compliance and RWC etc. are all being taken care of.

I am going to be doing a few of those defensive driving courses, I honestly believe I am a good driver but i am not ****y and with the power this thing has I am going to make sure I know how to handle it.

As for the Km's no one will really ever know the true km's on the motor. The car has 134,xxx kms but the motor could have only 50,000 who knows..... A compression test and a general checkup will determine the kms i suppose.

A timing belt replacement sticker (or lack thereof) is often a good indication.

Yeh good point...

Just out of curiosity what is a RB25 conversion usually worth on an R32? 4-5k?

Greg

only thing i would be concerned about is what u have to do to get it roadworthy and registered?

damn good price all the same.

Doesnt say anything about suspension mods.... coz the arse end looks VL sled styles....

and HEY easy on the poo farm gags... it only smells like shit on friday afternoon in the summer.....:chairshot:

Alot of things they dont mention so we'll see how that goes when it comes.

RWC should be fine, being taken care of ;)

With the cam covers (or timing belt cover, what ever you call it) can it be swapped from the RB25 to the RB20? (so instead of having RB25 on my motor it will have RB20?)

Cheers,

Greg

Even with all the RB20 rocker covers. timing belt covers, the plenum will still be a dead giveaway that its an RB25:(

i just want it to say RB20 on the timing belt cover instead of the RB25, just so it looks like its semi the original motor.. if that makes sense.

I know the turbo is going to be a slight giveaway to the car being modded but i figure its 1 step closer to being stock.

LOL... I dont think it smells at all.. ohwell..

Got a question though..

What sort of 1/4 mile times are realistic with est 250rwkw?

Greg

Is it just me or do I have a GTR front bar minus the front lip?

My%20R32.JPG

In one of the photos there is something long and thin in the back seat, im hoping it is the lower lip, i think it is :P

Greg

OR am i wrong altogether and seeing things?

you'd think it would have an aftermarket ECU or soemthing running a much biger turb :P

Nice car Greg, i was looking at that for a mate. A little on the pricey side but you get what you pay for.

The car is the same as mine, stock ECU (alhtough mine is chipped with data logger) and was running other gear.

If you give Gary a call he'll give you all the info.

My DD is still running the Rb20 with that turbo set up and im pushing for 260rkw's and the turbo is rated at 435bhp.

im running low 11's with a very tired locker and has potential to run better so with the Rb25 your hsould post some good figures and get the desired power your looking for.

Good luck with the car

Cheers B

heheh congrats on the car, when I saw it come up it reminded me of my import :rofl:. Prestige were tops regarding my car, and you can all but expect a whole lot of surprises. Certainly I found a lot of interesting goodies that weren't listed :). I imported an RB26 powered gts-t 4 door, and it turned out to be a gts-4 ;).

ps. love to have a look see once it's imported :).

What I wanted to hear...

I will be sure to take it out to some meets up once it lands. Will be taking it down the strip to get some time slips too ;)

Wouldn't mind having a look at your 4 door GTR ;) lol

    • Long time no random post about shit. So I went down this deep deep rabbit hole of battery storage for the home, ended up locking in a 41.9kWh Fox ESS EQ4800 with 9 units stacked. Battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate, similar to what you find in those deep cycle boat/caravan batteries. And yes, why did I go with a cheapie brand and not like Synergy? simply because I don't plan to stay at this house for more than another 3~5 years.  The entire install, DC coupling (removal of existing invertor, connecting the current 6.6kW array direct to the battery invertor), new 8kW invertor is $6K all up (after all the rebates etc.). Going with this lot: https://www.aussiesolarbatteries.com.au/ It did seem a bit too good to be true, however seems like the Whirlpool community has vetted it and when it comes to this kind of stuff, they seem to be all over it: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/9pxj8482?p=38   I've requested for the battery to be installed outside, next to my meter board and not inside - rather have it combust and ignite outside lol.    
    • In Vic it would be a defect regardless of whether or not you cut a hole in the sheetmetal for the return pipe. The rules in Vic are shitful, and are generally interpreted as you can "make 2 mods to the intake system". Putting an FFP and an FMI onto it will almost certainly be seen as some huge number of intake mods. You really need to speak to an engineer before doing this stuff in VIC.
    • planning a r34 rb25 de+t with some other work, rather just have it done in a shop due to space limitations any recommendations? I have most the parts already I seen online Moore Performance and DR Drift any advice appreciated thanks 
    • I’ve read the previous posts so just looking for latest information on how people have dealt with front facing plenum is it a defect etc or didn’t pass roadworthy or was it not noticed? Have a r34 and deciding if I should make a hole on the driver side or not.  I know some people have said blitz return flow but I might get rid of the stock intake down the line for a plenum so I rather set up for that now plus I already have a standard Intercooler. Car is mainly stock  Thanks. 
    • Actually, if having and keeping the stock ECU is the plan, the correct answer is to put Nistune into the ECU and improve the situation, not just look at it.
