Guys

Does anyone know the differences between these heads? Know cams are different, but what about valve sizes and spring tensions.

Asking as am thinking of throwing RB20DET bottom end on my RB20DE, should I do the head also?

Thanks

if u did the head as well it would just be a complete engine wouldnt it??

I know this is an extremely old topic but I have been searching the site for the difference between the rb20det vs. rb20de. I have 3 rb20 motors 2 det and 1 de and would like to use the DE as a spare motor to build incase anything happens to the others.

So far the differences I have read are the DE block doesn't have oil squirters, possibly no spot for oil drain?

Anyone shed some light on this topic I'm sure has been beaten to death.

you would have to change the pistons unless your happy with high comp?

no oil squirter's wouldn't phase me if true, dunno about oil drain? Would have thaught it would?

Indeed it does have a place for the oil drain. I finally got my motors out of storage and to my house and checked it out. Im thinking of putting a nice thick headgasket on my DE to lower the comp some and throw a KA transmission on it for an ultra low budget rb20 240sx just to sell.

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok so i will NEED to have this sensor anyway even with Nistune (or standalone ECU) https://justjap.com/products/genuine-nissan-boost-pressure-sensor-evap-control-system-fits-nissan-r34-skyline-c34-nm35-stagea-pnt30-x-trail-rb25det-vq25det-sr20vet?currency=AUD&srsltid=AfmBOoqfxX48bW9bEwH62orcNhtBfp7ekAL0C9Ca89ySFGUiBzXfXeze Is this the correct one? And this is only thing i need? No other "things" connected to the sensor or something? I do have the wiring.
