dont know about costs, but the way exstatic mentioned is better. If you turbo a RB25de, you will never get the same power as if you dropped in a rb25det due to compression etc.

Squizz from qld did it in his rb20de just using an rb20det head , manifold , turbo etc.. He said he did it for around $1000, and that was fairly cheap. You would be looking at around $3500 I would think to drop in a rb25det.

Probably be a better idea to do what doxx did.. he bought a half cut and dropped a whole rb25det into his car..

well he will do.

damn right i will do it!

yeah mash i think its better getting the halfcut, thats if u wanna stick with auto and u can find an auto gtst halfcut. and you also get front breaks, shocks that u can sell, dash and some other cool nifties ;)

if u wanna go manual, ask meggala he had an auto single spinning r32 gts, he done a full gtst manual conversion with lsd and all and the car is damn cool

depends on the situation we are in now with these lovely lovely import laws ;) theres things like by the time u sell ur car the new laws will be in so it will be more expensive thn just doing the conversion, or if u buy off someone from here it might be expensive because they either know of the new laws coming in or they are asking for a bit more money

i mean there are very nice examples down here but they might be hard to find

buy ex-tatics car, its leet! :D

    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
    • Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
