im really interested to see if anyone is running a gt30 500hp turbo on their rb25 on these forums with an a/r.82 exhaust housing and if so what power are they getting in rwkws and at what boost pressure and rpm does it reach full boost by with what supporting mods??? cheers carl.

in the 500hp the .63 really doesnt choke it, its when you get the slighty bigger comp wheel for the 550hp that the .63 would hold back.

i reckon the 550hp would come a damn sight close (if not make) 300rwkw on 20/22psi if in a .82 rear.

I went 270rwkw with 600hp on 17psi.

But then, when your talking 10/15kw thats a simple matter of dyno calibration really, your 280 could be 265 on the dyno i was on, or vice versa... if you see where im going with this :unsure:

Its hard to compare 10/15/20kw differences IMO.

yeah the .63 would probably be the better choice, gives better low end grunt. all the .82 would do is lag your combo out, unless you also go the bigger comp wheel as was stated earlier by R31Nismoid. all you really need to get more potential from your turbo is cam work, forget about a larger A/R turbine.

bugger all if you ask me, maybe 20rwkw which you wont really feel.

i doubt id feel 280 going to 300, maybe @ 150rwkw going to 175 or something you would :)

i went 270 to 330, that i noticed :(

wow , a few different answers there. does anyone know what the difference would be in rpm, what 300rpm , 500rpm? to spool up to full boost? i thought that posting here i might get some intelligent answers?? instead i get," i can get you a dyno print out for 300rwkws if you like". if i was just after outright power i wouldnt be playing around with such a small turbo would i? all im trying to do is discuss my options before going ahead or research before going ahead, i appreciate your help so far guys but weve come along way say since the sub zero workshop pulled 10.9 in a skyline over 5 years ago. they were using two of my turbos to pull 330rwkws . this was and is still impressive but now lots of peoples skylines are doing it and probably with less lag than is associated with two big twins. im just trying to see before i try to extract a little more. im a very happy with the way it drives at the moment and yes power does come hard at 3500/3800rpm. with boost starting at just over 2000rpm. has anybody actually driven or owned a skyline with a gt30 500hp rated turbo with a a/r.82 exhaust housing? because if it takes another 500rpm to spool the thing then know i probably would not bother but if its less than i would probably consider it.

ive already got 281rwkws with a/r.63 exhaust housing, thanks for reply anyway.

I've got the same setup making 225rwkw... can you tell me your other mods?

(I'm running standard internals and 16psi boost)

low mount stainless manifold, ces split 3 inch dump pipe into a 4 inch magic cat, then 3 inch continueing to barrell style muffler with 4.5inch tip. 600x300x80mm front mount intercooler with stock plenum and pipeing. link ecu running 550cc injectors. splitfire coils. motor has been fully rebuilt with wiseco forged pistons on prepped gtr rods. running 8.5 to 1 comp. head mild port, running tomei poncams step ones 256inlet and exhaust, no adjustable cam gears. 600hp bosche fuel pump. i hope i havent left anything out.

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
