factory stats at the flywheel for the different models are below, it's hard to gauge power at the wheels, cause every dyno will read sligthly different

R32 RB25DE 132kw

R33 RB25DE non type-s 140kw

R33 RB25DE type-s 147kw

R43 RB25DE 147kw

i remember hi performance imports magazine dynoed a rb25de , they eventually got it up to around 120 kw@ rw , mainly by playing with the ignition timing ( advanced few degrees ) improving air inlet and some other tricks . must find that magazine and be a bit more specific .

by the way whats the difference between non type s and type s ?

i read that article too... it was on an series 1 silver sedan.

they advanced timing

fcd

removed standard airbox lid

added a cardboard snorkel

type s has been quoted to have an extra 7kw (and has an exhaust flap on the stock system)

What sort of power can be achieved with an RB25DE ? Has anyone worked one ?

Have been wanting to change mine to an N/A since I saw a HCR32 modified to fit in an RB25DE ( in the turbo body with brakes etc. ) Yes the car WAS a turbo but had an N/A installed. The RB25DE was very worked but I don't speak Jap so I didn't find out the power output.

I know you think I'm :crazy: but if you could have heard this car go you would cream yourself ( snorting, farting, barking and growling sounds that no turbo car could EVER make !!! ) :wave:

This car I saw in Osaka had open alloy trumpets and you could look down them and SEE the fuel injector spraying !!! It also had extractors into a 2 3/4" system with one muffler, and then dumped out the side. The compression of the engine was so high that the air coming out the exhaust nearly un-tied your shoe laces !! :wave:

I just wish I had done the swap when I blew up my RB20DET. But the only thing that stopped me was the knowledge that I was going to have +200 rwkw. I now have the power but just wish I had the old school noise :kewl:

So by that rational, it's possible to get good 150+rwkw with cams, injectors, head work etc. ( I suppose with REAL money spent, the number's could be higher ). But I guess it's more about the torque figure and where it all happens in the rev range.

I better start saving real hard :huh:

by that you mean it had their own individual tb with bell mouths added to it. they make the engine scream and rev really loud haha.

damn its been awhile and i should've kept track of this thread. i totally forgot about it :worship:

R32 RB25DE 132kw

i thought R32's only came in RB20 dude?

i rekon the rb25de would be a good engine to work with. work it off its nuts then slap on a turbo man it would be a monster.

Yes some R32s came out with a non-turbo RB25DE engine (although less powerful than the R33 version).

yeh, I have an R32 RB25DE.. any light mods I can do? I'm a student so strapped for cash, but it does have a new air filter, performance clutch and exhaust.. what else could be done?

$300 will get you a set of Coby extractors from NZ. Very good build quality!

He said it already has a performance exhaust on it... so any gain would be minimal (surley).

Perhaps getting some cams would help... provided you don't mind revs, that is.

Get a job when you finish uni and get a turbo (like I did). Till then, save your money, and enjoy your lightweight NA car

      I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?

      So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
