Curtisnz, all RB engines sound like this whether its a gts, gtt, or gtr, but if you live in the US you cant have a skyline legally, sorry, aswell you have to have a custom exahist for a skyline to sound good, HKS Hi power is the best
my friends sounds like this on his r33 but it had a top-mount turbo with bolt-ons.He also has a rb25det 240 with stock turbo and no where does it sounds like this lol.Check my vids to hear it
i dont understand how people can get this exhaust note with there rb25's all the other ones ive listened to sound different but this one actually sounds like the skyline from 2f2f (favorite sound) how did you do it?
@bobdudle123211 It was single turbo and through a 3.75" exhaust. Not sure if that matters but it makes a big difference compared to the bottled up sound of the stock turbo/exhaust. Could be the camera's mic too, dunno.
@1jzdrift1 I built mine. Just 3 inch piping and a couple of flanges. On my RB20 S13 (another car I had) I had the stock turbo and wound up using an ebay downpipe for an RB20 and it fit perfectly to the ebay 240 exhaust I bought. Not sure about the RB25 though.
@bobdudle123211 i hope ur not judging like based on youtube vid's because alot of camera's have shitty mic's that dont really capture the sound of the exhaust...
@bobdudle123211 lol you both are wrong ive seen under the hood of the @F@F skyline it's a single turbo 2jz that's why it sounded soo cool in the movie.
@bobdudle123211 Ya, I have wondered that to.. Also the skyline in 2f2f is an RB26. They do sound similar.. but its much easier to get this off of an RB26 than an RB25
@cobratoxic The RB25DET is an engine swap from an R33 skyline. It's basically what makes the car sound like this. if you had this exhaust on a stock 240sx, it would sound wayyyy different.
yep... by far my favorite sounding car pretty much ever... rb20/25 through an apexi GT spec might sound good but i have no clue why this one is so smooth... could be the turbo set up?
Very nice car. In your advice what engine would you swap for a reliable 400whp. I know the stock KA or a sr20 are good for some power but only around 350ish unless you forge / push the envelope.
I know the rb25 skyline engine would work like a charm but I don't know if the price is worth it if im only going for 400ish whp.
I don't have this car anymore, but the front clip came with an RB25DE or RB20 (KA/SR20 sized) trans. It's my assumption that they will all bolt up with minor mods. The actual RB25DET trans is MUCH beefier than the KA/RB20/SR20 series of transmissions. On my RB20 car I used the stock KA 5spd trans just had to remove one dowel pin in the bell housing and widen a bolt hole. Custom driveshaft anways.
@aliefdrumline i am currently doing the whole engine and tranny and from what i did the tranny bolts right onto the engine. you will need to modify the exhaust slightly but if you have trouble, message me.
I would assume this is caused by the camera's self adjusting the mic. volume as it gets louder. That's why it's not very practical to set the camera on the ground like this.
Apexi rocks! I just got this same exhaust for my Civic (please no ignorant ricer flaming). Sounds really good. not too ricey, just a nice, deep tone. You car still sounds quite a bit better than mine.... lol. inline 6 > inline 4
You're prolly looking at 1300-1800 for the engine. People sell them for more, but keep your eyes out. If you dont know how to fabricate and machine parts, then there are kits out there for RB25DET conversions.
I think it's the larger turbo that's giving they more agressive sound. Same concept when going single on a Supra, sounds much better than the small twins.
Had an SSQV but I doubt it was building much if any boost revving. Also, I may have had some boost leaks at the time as I was still sorting all of my piping out.
Hi all, I did do the swap myself. The front clip was around $2500-2800 if I remember correctly. My best advice here is to buy the engine set or clip only from a very reliable importer, even if it means paying more. Some good ones that I've used: JHOT in Augusta (see my RB20 videos) and JARCO in Canton, GA. My biggest peice of advice...SWAP THE MOTOR IN STOCK. Don't try to swap injectors, turbo etc... before you ever get it running for the first time. This motor blew, see my RB20..I did it right.
did you do the swap yourself, im going to do this swap soon and i was wondering how it went and also what your upgrades are and what hp are you putting down
