sam1r Posted June 23, 2015 Author Share Posted June 23, 2015 Some bad news today went to N S Spec Motorsport this afternoon in manukau to see if john could figure out why it was running rich i get told its got a bottom end knock/ rod knock so i need a new engine Sounds like that from like 3k-4k rpm Not sure what i want to do now, do i keep it 20det an just get it rebuilt or work the shit out of the 20det or do i go all out 5.5k roughly for a 25det package pushing out decent power figures 350-450hp easily what do you fellas think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Escorto. Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Find a good condition standard 25det. Get a big turbo, top mount manifold, 3 inch exhaust, front mount, Wrx injectors, link g4. Now the most important part. Take it to Glen Suckling for a tune. 360rwkw /nearly 500hp all day. Too easy. Hahah. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam1r Posted June 23, 2015 Author Share Posted June 23, 2015 1JZ. If i had the money an a job haha, i barely have 3k an saving up still/selling up Its still going to be a daily so it has to make a decent amount of RELIABLE power Will give the 20det a decent send off on top of third once my 15s get here from ML racing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now the most important part. Take it to Glen Suckling for a tune. 360rwkw /nearly 500hp all day. Too easy. Hahah. i want quick spool not some laggy slug that will full boost at like 5-6k rpm an then hit limiter One of the reasons i'd just get another 20det an plus the bank is fairly empty Even if i got a 25det in good cond i'd still give it the once over a rebuild it anyway for piece of mind that it will last another 300xxxkms If i do go 25det i probably wouldn't trust my self to do it my self tbh would rather joe kyle or john at NS spec build it EDIT: Also my 20det gbox probably wont last very long after a few clutch kicks and hard pulls. Big box isn't the cheapest thing either... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sam1r Posted June 24, 2015 Author Share Posted June 24, 2015 RB24 20 Block 26 Crank and Rods and 4agze pistons PLS Reading up on it quite tempted to but then everyone else says it not worth it just go 25det cause dumping a stack of money on a 20 isnt worth it for the power gains Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threeonthetree Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Lower your asking price on your Cortina. Sell it. Use the money on this. My 2 cents: Cheap RB30E from a VL Commodore. Keep it NA. Spend your money on ITBs and the appropriate supporting mods. DOOOOOOORRRRRRRT 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyteler Posted June 24, 2015 Share Posted June 24, 2015 ^ If you do that, sell me the RB30E SOHC head for a token amount, say... $20. Cheers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOOOOOOORRRRRRRT Yeah got a guy saying he can buy it for 5.9k which i said yea to so if hes actually serious ill be fairly sorted an pay back some debt to my dad would have a good giggle if i had a 30e, would make very nice sounds would do it if i bought a NA c33 ^ If you do that, sell me the RB30E SOHC head for a token amount, say... $20.

A different powerband and characteristics, plus everybody has an RB20DET/25DET/26DET/30DET in their Skylines. Stand out and go a different route.

sam1r Posted July 12, 2015 Author Share Posted July 12, 2015 Just a small update cause not much has really happened - my bottom end doesnt want to give up - found out previous owner has bought the car back at least 3 times before me an it used to be a dark purple- kinda wish it still has - Also found out that the previous owner used to run 18psi on standard 20det turbo lelel and apparently its forged but i won't know until i take the head off i guess - my master cylinder or slave cylinder gave up last night so had to start it in third and limp it home in third, a bit surprised my starter motor actually managed to start it with no one pushing - Oh yeah an my wheels an bumper and every thing else i bought from japan should be here in august sometime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam1r Posted July 12, 2015 Author Share Posted July 12, 2015 forgot to add it actually had been dyno'd at 14psi making 250hp atw so i guess 18.6psi it would be around the 300hp mark which is decent as fukc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sam1r Posted July 24, 2015 Author Share Posted July 24, 2015 the r32 took a slow whack pulling out onto morrin rd today only a broken indicator, crack in bumper which idont care about any way cause of the new one coming, bent guard which isnt a biggy her suzuki swift took a hiding though at like 10ks per hr not even that, rear door of her car got fucked she said it was my fault but my mate in the passenger seat said she wasnt looking so i guess i will have to dispute it an save paying excess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sam1r Posted August 4, 2015 Author Share Posted August 4, 2015 Sort of a update but yeah Went and saw Joe Kyle today an started talking about a rb24det with him an he said its fairly straight forward an quite a lot cheaper than what i had thought it would be from reading forums an what not. He also tried to persuade me to go 25det lel but i kindly turned it down reason being is theyre not as rev happy as a 20 an theyre prone to going pop a lot quicker, even though the 20det head isnt that good with providing decent flow compared to the 25 or 26det/t roughly around 3.5k-4k if i take the engine out my self an put it back in which isnt a hard task OR just go fully forged 20det for around 2.5k-3k 25det is only 1.8k-2.5k but dont really want to go that route even though every other person i know is telling me to not waste my money on a 20 an doing it up to make decent power figures what are your guys/gals thoughts on this ! ? ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
