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

    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.

    • They have said food will be limited. Mainly meat pies and sausage rolls from memory. But they have a coffee van!
