  1. These are the photos with the piping installed. This is without the heat shield. I will customize it soon to cover the top view of the turbo. Nevertheless, its still quite decieving!
  2. Here are some photos before i installed the piping.
  3. Sorry for the delay guys. Just finished the final touches and cold air intake yesterday. Cranked it a few times to lubricated the engine then i fired it up. I was reluctant to boot it as it could of been detonating. Took it down to C&D Motorworks to load it up on the dyno On three qaurter throttle (aproxx. 5000rpm) It started detonating so we backed off and still made 221rwkw at 12psi Judging by the power curve (in red) its heading for the +240rwkw zone with a power FC and tune. Pretty decent when you consider I still retain the standard dump-pipe, injectors and airflow meter. The old run with the standard turbo (in blue) is on the same sheet for comparison. Looking carefully, you can see that the power delivery is much more linear than the stock turbo Excuse my French, but it has F@#$KING SHIT LOADS OF TORQUE Hopefully, next week ill tune my pfc that I bought off "KLR33"
  4. need a nismo f.p.r. for a rb25 pm only.
  5. Will find out for you.
  6. Actualy, the exhaust cover has the same pattern as the stock R33 turbo. The standard Nissan 6 hole gasket was used.
  7. No, not a typo. I guess ill have to wait and see. Created Motorsports white drift R33 had this set-up but with a t25/28 flange and 0.82 ex a/r and he made 269rwkw with a significantly linear power curve. Mine has a a 0.71 ex. a/r so lets all wait and see how it pans out for me.
  8. It could, but i wouldn't stress about it. Worst case scenario is an extra $50 in customizing it to fit. Let the exhaust shop worry about it.
  9. The picture below outlines the water inlet and outlet pipe. Oil feed is on the other side of the id tag, behind the nut. Excuse my poor drawings
  10. I have adjusted the centre core 20-30degress from the vertical, garrett suggests a maximum orientation of 35degress. Although this pic does not show it, the oil drain is at the bottom and the oil feed is approx. 25 degress from the vertical Some new findings at garret recommend this as the oil entering the top at the stated orientation will swirl through the core providing greater lubrication. I will post some pictures tommorrow Cheers
  11. ID TAG: 700177-5012
  12. The actuator they supplied me with had a straight rod. It was no good. Too much mucking around involved to bend it. I went back and they gave me a rod that comes already bent. Have a look at it on the photo above. Just got out of the garage. All is well and tightened. Will tow it to the exhaust shop tommorrow to make up some new pipes.
  13. I know its a headache. The next person that says to me the words 'bolt on' will lose his teeth. Go to go know...back to thw garage.
  14. Pretty sure its the rotation. On the photo the compressor and exhaust covers were not yet adjusted.
  15. The measurements i took for the oil feed were pretty spot on.
  16. Need a set of 550cc injectors for a rb25det. & a Q45 or Z32 air flow meter Will buy immediately for a reasonable price. Please PM me. Cheers, Bill
  17. Will post a pic latter on today.
  18. Its going on a RB25 Will probably put a set of 550cc injectors Still debating on wether or not i will put camshafts.
  19. Will use a power fc ATM: Mods are: Full 3inch exhaust Apex FMIC (its quite small) HKS GEN 3 EBC BOSCH pump HKS mushroom filter It made 211.2rwkw on 12psi with a SAF-C Cannot wait till this one starts spoolin'
  20. stay tuned for more...
  21. Latter on i realised that it was not sitting flush with the manifold. The heat shield had to be removed & the bottom right bolt had to be threaded in 5mm deeper as i could not put the nut on it. This is a picture of the set-up when I placed it on this morning at 4:30am (Me and my mate were burning the midnight oil into the early hours of the day. ) the arrow is pointing to the bolt that had to be threaded deeper.
  22. The compressor cover was hitting the manifold, so I had to use a 10mm spacer and remove the four manifold bolts. I replaced them with approx. 10mm longer ones Below is a picture of the four bolts that had to be removed and replaced with longer ones. (4 bolts and nuts from Metric Man cost me $6) The yellow rectangle highlights the section of the manifold that comes into contact with the compressor cover.
  23. Here are some pics of the turbo, lines and dump-pipe after i assembled it.
  24. Just purchased my GT3071R 56 trim, 71mm compressor wheel 4inch compressor cover T3 flanged with 0.71 exhaust a/r, which mates up with the stock dump-pipe. Cost me $1900 from Rotomaster in Melbourne Would of cost me a further $100 for a GT30 style 0.63 ex-housing, but would of cost a further $300 for a custom dump pipe. Oil and water lines were custom made by HIS and cost me $330- all braided except oil drain pipe. Some bango fitting from the stock unit were chopped and re-used. BTW - Turbo needs a 10mm spacer between turbo and manifold, as comp cover is quite large. Stay tuned for further updates...(more pics/ dyno graph/etc.)
