Good day fellow tuners, I have stock RB20 single cam engine and tranny in my Laurel. Recently (yesterday) the transmission is no more. So I decided to change engine and tranny, my mechanic advised me to put in a VQ30DET 5 speed Transmission (I don't like manual). Initially I was thinking RB25DE Neo & 4 speed tranny. A very good friend of mine advised me not to put the VQ and put the RB25DE Neo. So I would like to hear from my fellow tuners what is there opinion.

P.S. Those who don't know the VQ30 engines, they are V6 3 Litre engines from the Cima & Gloria. I think those cars are AWD.

(I recently changed to 5 hole R33 Brakes, 4 piston front and 2 piston back with original Skyline rims.) :twisted:

I think you should put the RB25DE NEO & Transmission. Or If you can get a RB25DET NEO & Transmission. Sometimes newer engine is not neccesarilly better.

It is the one by Bicks my mechanic was telling me about. You have a point there about the availability for parts RB vs VQ. Point & opinion noted!

Best turbo engine for that car

rb25DET
Image
best non turbo rb25DE
Image

with both you would have no problem with parts ect parts are easily accessable

shouldnt by much for both engines

recently heard prices was like 10k for a rb25det auto
and 4k with a rb25de auto
prob thats my price or something but thats a good estimation

Sweet engines! But what about the RB25DE NEO? Bicks had a RB25DE & 5 speed Tranny for $6000.

So far I'm leaning towards RB25DE NEO (Not the Tiptronic transmission. Normal tranny).

Bought a RB25DE NEO & Tranny by Bicks for $5,000. I saw a RB25DET NEO for $6,000 but I wasn't feeling the turbo. I dropped it by the mechanic this morning so hopefully by next week I'll be driving!

It cost me $2000. But thats with a new downpipe from manifold and without barrel in center. It would have costed $2400 with the center barrel (I like noise so I left it out). I think it would have costed about $1200 with just the exaust pipe. I did it by Salandy in Siparia (at the side of Republic Bank).
