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:

:werd:

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

    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • 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)
