my car came from jap with one of theses turbos fitted to the RB30 twincam that was in it.

theres turbos are an awesome little unit, i beleive there rated in between the HKS 2535 and 2540 range for power/flow rating

on the rb30 it was instantly on boost (obviously the extra capacity is a huge shove for it) and it now resides on a mates r31 with rb25 fitted and have been told its extremly nice to drive with it

id imagine it to be the perfect turbo to suit a rb25, maybe a little to big for an rb20 but would still be streetable

cheers

Apex turbo is made by IHI in Japan. The latest IHI turbo is PEP for GTR. That turbo is the best turbo I beleive because it has the oil film dumper system in centre section. That is the ball bearing system. There are some ball bearing system one is HKS (Garrett). That trurbo do not have the oil film system which reduce the shock. Therefore this ball bearing is easy to get damage and life is shorter than other turbo. It is common knowledge in engineers.

anyone heard of rx6 turbo by apexi am in the same boat an cant find any info on?

Greenline sell the RX6 Isamu turbo kits

    • I mean, I can confirm the TPS is at 100%.... I can confirm when we installed the TB and setup the cable that the TB was indeed fully open at max pedal travel.. the same 'curve' (WRT MAP vs MAP) existed with the previous setup/TB/manifold as well... No, we did not do a run with no intake connected. I would love to go back in time to do such a run to rule out the intake. It would have also been good to do a run with the airbox lid off. There's a test there where increased IAT vs more available air could be a positive tradeoff. I remember taking the lid off my R34 Turbo setup back in the day and noticing a monster increase, even if IAT's did go up. Could be similar. Hard to test unless I find a very deserted road. 
    • That's actually encouraging to be honest. my motor was rebuild many years ago but it's probably done less than 30,000kms and fucc all limiter or drift, majority street / drag / roll racing. It'll be fine 💪🏼 I don't even have lines or a can for the cam breathers installed yet, there is zero oil residue or splatter on or around them, it drives beautifully so it seems healthy. Just a ticky lifter, yet they're almost brand new oem genuine Nissan and haven't done many kms at all...
    • Have you confirmed the throttle body goes to WOT (and stays there) during the run?
    • I'm having a problem. I think it was mentioned above somewhere but can't see it.  I'm stuck in the cycle of, sand, filler, low spot again, put filler, sand, low spot again, now i put filler again and a thicker portion which seems to have helped but I got low spots in other areas. In the image. Circled in red thats where the original low spot was and the shape is the same as the red out line. I've more or less fixed that (still low spot up the top but now I have low spots where the green circled part is.  Is likely the issue that I didn't start with a course sand paper? I sanded the filler with 240 to reduce the risk of not going to far but maybe the issue is that I'm only taking off enough material to remove some of the filler but not the high spots. I now started sanding with 120 and I think I'm seeing a difference. I did fix one dent the other 2 are f**ked and seems like I made another low spot which is indicated by the furthest green circle on the left handside. Any thoughts and solutions?   Also second image. All of these rock chips, can they be filled in with primer or do i need to fill them all with filler/putty? So many rock chips on mine lol.
    • Well, I had an Edward Lee's special edition odo windback car/motor with a RB25DET S2 and I put down 372kW with a good amount of track abuse for 1.5 years before the ring lands decided it didn't want to stick around anymore 🥲 But probably didn't help I kept on smashing try limiter on the track and a few skid pans.
