No my engine is not built!

RB25DET w/ECU swap on a GTST (lighter then R33's and GTR's)
Blitz BOV
APEXi power intake
SMIC (OEM)

If i were to build it....would far exceed the numbers 250HP/235TQ,
The RB25DET can achieve 800HP (which i have no intentions of going for) but am aiming for 320WHP at the most. Im not worried about huge numbers but rather all around performance which the Skyline offers from the get go.
Interior....atleasy it has a sporty feel to it unlike that "BOX" cobalt "Super****". Its more then just an engine or HP for that matter to me.

I have yet to see a USDM car that even looks good in my eyes! lol

keep ranting, i find it interesting to see.


Spent on the Skyline
11,900.00 for the car
9200.00 in total vehicle trade-in parts

My own spending:
Turbo timer 250.00
White face guage cluster 30.00 (from a member)
Boost guage & A/F guage 200.00
Suede boots for Shifter & E-brake 150.00
Short shifter & Razo 170g shift knob 220.00
Wiring and misc parts for interior approx 300.00

Total 22250.00 CDN


i think that wraps it up, and then the 300.00 EBC to bust the boost upto 12-15PSI until i get my hands on a steel internal turbo (not purchased yet, nor installed yet)

Some specs on my particular set up:

1989 Skyline GTST
RB25DET Turbocharged/SMIC
24V DOHC I6
5-Spd MT
HP: 250 OEM
TQ: 235 OEM
Curb vehicle weight: 1260 kg

Then add in even the ($300.00 Cdn) EBC i want soon, and boost it an additional:
5 PSI x 10HP = 50HP + 250 = 300HP
(Note: 12 PSI is maximum output on ceramic turbocharger)
