so i took out the engine and tranny today with my buddies and realized i will be moving from a mechanical speedo to a electronic in the 33 s2 tranny i will be using. How can i make this work?

[Supraclean]

I heard you can use Gtr Speedo cable if I read you post correct.

[cschepp]

really? That would be nice, what year gtr speedo cable would i needd?

Thanks for the info,
Chris

Just to clarify, you dont need the GTR speedo cable. Your GTS speedo cable will work just fine unless youre using the GTR cluster. All you need to do is replace the speed sensor in the RB25 tranny with a GTR speed sensor. GTR and RB20 trannies both use mechanical speed sensors, while RB25 uses electronic speed sensor.

There is a complete step by step thread on SAU for doing the conversion. GTR speed sensor should cost you around $100 brand new, shipped from Japan. Adam is your friend.

Good luck, Chris.

hey does anyone know how much it would cost for forgered internals in a rb25? I am told i should change over a bunch of things if i reach over 400hp which is understandable. Please let me know what you think it might cost. Thanks, Chris

Well, depends what you want really. What parts are you after? Like what rods, what oil system parts, what cams, what pistons and will you be going to solid lifters? IIRC if you go to 9.5 lift or higher on the cams you need to go to solid lifters.

So many variables, you're best off finding the parts you want and find prices, add them up and times it by two.

I would like to hit the 500whp if not a tad more. I know you guys might think i am nuts to have that for a daily driver but this is just so much fun. I do it for the love of skylines
