Im assuming you want this for a 180?

Think maybe we loosing sight of what the Q is RB20det cut for $1500 Vs RB25det cut $3000

basically RB20det and $1500 mod money (maybe a high flowed T3 in that)

Vs

Stock RB25det

Either way make sure you get the coresponding engine crossmember and brakes.......

works auto,

you have already kicked my ass, 13.3 vs 13.4 says so. I don't think it would be fair next time cause I've got the s-afc in since last time and you still have a std ecu? or is it re-mapped?

Anyway if you can get it into 12's it should be a good race cause thats where I will be next time down there.

Mr Mayhem,

Sorry mate, I did miss quote there. I agree about the 3L totally.

Ballistic,

Thanks for pointing that out it was very funny. Do you also find faults in movies? you should start a thread on it...No! a whole forum! Wait a minute....your an english teacher aren't you! You'll never make me read the Mayor of Casterbridge, I'll fight you till the last!

get an RB31det... well there's an RB31DETT so I'm guessin you caould get an RB31DET.. and yes its thirty one not thirty... my cuz jus imported one by accident to Sri Lanka (the RB31DETT came in a GTS4 of all things)... he said he'll send me pics when the car arrives.

hey guys

what kinda estimated power would my car be putting out?

specs are as follows:

HR31 GT Passage (1440kg)

R32 Silver Top RB20det

3" from turbo back exhuast

high flowed R32 RB20det turbo

EMS Dual Sport I 604

Boost cut of 105kpa which about = 14.7psi

stock R32 cooler.. temps sit around 39-41deg

any ideas ??

Thanks

Dave

I think what sydneykid was originally saying, is that if you had an RB20 and an RB25 both with RB25 turbo's they would both have similar max power output. The 20's turbo really hurts its performance, but one advantage with a 25 is that you can run bigger turbo which also equals more power.

sumfatchin... The RB20DET uses a small arse turbo.

Slap a R33 Turbo on the RB20DET and at the same boost pressure you are looking at around 15rwkw more.

So 15rwkw more on 221.4hp is around 241hp at the rears.

The RB25DET also has the advantage of running a higher static compression ratio compared to the RB20DET which equals a little bit more power BUT you are unable to run as much boost so really it evens its self out with a RB20DET running 2 psi more on the same turbo compared to a RB25DET running 2 psi less on the same turbo.

    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
    • I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat 
    • I saw your intro update, are you sure you've actually had a starter motor failure? You mention it could be the alarm causing it. I'm assuming you've got a no start issue, but what are the exact symptoms, as there could be a few reasons it has stopped wanting to start.
