What engine swop have you done into your S15?

[silv15]

its a rb20det with rb25det internals, so its a 2.5L rb20det
im looking for a rb26...but theres just ONE skyline GTR here in Peru...so,i guess it will take some time :furious:.

BTW; do u guys know where i can get S15 projector headlights (some1 who can send em 2 Peru)....and the Ashtrade???

silv15: left-hand drive conversion?

We have an RB26DETT S15 coming into NZ at the moment - whoever gets it's going to be pretty happy.

Did the 25 internals just fit straight in (with the crank just make it a bigger displacement) or did you need a rebore of the RB20 block? Legend project man! :notworthy:

Good job - you can't tell from there what engine it's got in it so it's a proper sleeper!

thanks

 

[slammedmind]

seems like youve put alot of time and effort into this project, what kind of figures is it putting out with the rb25 internals?

 

[s15fanatic]

because of limited space in the engine bay. I wonder if the new R35 skyline engine would be a better choice than a RB26DETT?

 

[silv15]

It's been a while since I did this pryect, right now I'm in the us but two months ago I swaped a rb25det from a r34 with a holset hx35 turbo,with all the extras it should have like 380hp at 15 on

A S15 with R35 engine and gearbox would be a wicked weapon.
I think traction would be a big problem though... oh and money too.
The VR38DETT cost a huge pile of money, and so does the gearbox. You could probobly buy a container full of RB26s instead of the VR38 and the DCT gearbox lol.
