its all about power to weight. bikes generally have less power than modified turbo cars, but they will flog most of them in a roll on drag. Dont be surprised if a 1600 with a stock sr20 beats your mildly modified R33.

Its not so bad though, imagine how HSV GTS owners feel with 300kw when they get done by less powerful, but much lighter, S13's etc.

My gf has a brand new S15 Spec R GT and her car stock as a rock.... NO MODS...

Onlys has 2200km's on the clock and it keeps up with me... I win but not by much but she is a good driver... LOL (As good as a woman gets anyway)

Ouch dont hit these guys know its true...

Dr GTR is correct, that's pretty close to a standard Gts-t's power output isn't it?

What's with all you Nissan people bashing other Nissan cars?!? :P

The SR20DET is a classic, the RB26DETT is a classic. They can both get up around 1000HP. I personally don't think the RB25DET is in the same league as these 2 engines.

I've never seen an RB25DET with 1000HP.

I like the S14's and the R33's.

With enough money & engineering *most* engines can make 1000hp (some would have few OEM parts remaining!)

Why haven't you seen any 1000hp RB25DET's? Because the RB26DETT is a better starting point if you want to build a 1000hp Nissan straight 6.

Don't think for a second that it's easy to built a seriously powerfully & reliable SR20DET / RB26DETT (700+hp) Big $$$ & serious engine work. It's no different if someone were to choose the RB25DET as a base for a 1000hp. Give me the money & I'll be the first to build a 1000hp RB25DET.

The Silvia platform is one of Nissan’s best, sorry to see it go. It's reasonably cheap, light weight, powerful & very "chuckable".

Silvia vs. GTS25t..... It all comes down to personal preference.

I may be biased but I've yet to hear a decent exhaust note from an SR20DET :P they sound...um...sort of... 'farty'.

get outta here, u tryin to say an sr20det can get 1000hp and an rb25det cant......u gotta be kiddin me

firstly, how much of the sr2odet is an sr20det when its got a 1000hp, id be inclinde to call it a jun20det or hks20det

and secondly, anything can make 1000hp, its all money.

All nissans rock, and they r very similar, ive been up against a few lightly modded s14s, and mines only slightly modded, i havent been beaten but u dont blow em away either..comes down to money and driver..

ask them for rolling starts :D

a decent driver in a S13 or S14 or S15 will be extremely hard to beat...

speaking from experience Franks?? HHAhahaha..

anyways..as i've said before...big HP doesnt necessarily equates to fast car....a lot of factors come into play like driver skills, weight, drivetrain, suspension, fuel, cooling etc...

sub zero must be pretty close with there rb25!

I think TRY09 is an RB30/26DETT combo? It's certainly not an RB25DET - if that's the Subzero car you were thinking of?

with their RB30/26DETT, why did they choose the more expensive GTR head instead of the RB25 head? cos i'm looking at having a go at doing a RB30/25 hybrid, and i'd be keen to know why RB26 head is the go over the RB25 head. Do they keep the Variable Cam Timing?

I've got a nice turbo/exhaust manifold setup for an RB25DET so that's why i'd pick the RB25 head, so i can bolt it on (i've been told it won't fit an RB26 head)

Thanks

    • The spray cans were in the "Kiln" room whilst I was preping the parts,  so probably around 2 hours to get them warmed up, the kiln room has 3 small ovens running at 100°c, 3 medium sized ovens running 100°c, and the large one I used running at 80°c, the room itself was about 28°c, I also spent a bit of time taping up the parts in the room as well, and by the time I was done I would assume that the parts were around that 28°c As for power, I expect a couple of Killerwasps up high would be achievable with the current mods, I'm still running the MZR 2.0 intake and throttle body, and there is a slight mismatch with the 2.0 intake (smaller) and 2.5 intake ports (larger) on the head, this intake is matched and specifically designed to fix this issue with the ports mismatch, the throttle body is also a couple of mm larger, OEM is 65mm, the Bosch is 68mm In the end it will look "prettier" than the molded plastic thing that is the OEM MZR 2.0 intake As for the LSD, it's the OEM Torsen which works fine for what I use the car for, plus, basically no maintenance apart from the occasional oil change
    • I was at Tunehouse in Marrickville (great team over there really know their VR's) , and I spotted this Very clean R35.  
    • Mate , I have the same issue right now with the exhaust noise , if you can tell me what your local guy did , I'll talk to my guys and see if they can do the same. Power is good but it just too loud when put it down. 
    • The other trick I've found with wrinkle black is to put the can in hot water for a bit to warm the paint up, and to pre-heat whatever you're painting. It'll be interesting to see if you pick up any power with the intake, following with interest. Got a proper lsd for this?
    • Plazmaman 76mm Pro Series, done. Data to back it up, I posted up somewhere here a few years back
