just wondering what turbo would be best on a auto r33 25t

i would like a turbo that kicks in the low rpm towards close to redline

because auto wont even let me rev it close to redline

it just changes gear on its own

any auto SAU's that has had experience with this problem?

i was more looking into a HKS 2530? kicks in at 35k rpm

I have a 2535 on my Auto R33, its a great turbo, peaks around 6500 with

tons of midrange, only a few hundred RPM more lag than standard turbo, you can barely feel it

I have that same problem atm though, sometimes after a few runs, the auto gearbox just shifts earlier and earlier. I have no idea why. So I get a great first run but it just gets worse after.

yea I have a transcooler and valvebody upgrade

didnt solve anything, during the install changed the fluid, and filter

problem still there, Im trying to install oil temp gauge to keep tabs on the auto box temperature, but having problems finding fittings for it

I cant imagine what your new RB30DET is going to be like with the 2535,tow a road train.

Recommend a highflow, There are two types, GCG do one with a BB cartridge, retails for around $1650, The other is a new bush bearing cartridge, Retails for around $1350. You retain standard plumbing & ducting.

Have done this upgrade on a couple of customer cars and they retain similar boost threshhold but pull right through revrange. your auto issues probably warrant a full manual valve body. Do the turbo upgrade fist, and go from there.

i have a r33 turbo on my auto 32gtst. + SAFC

no problem pulling to redline.

the problem was it wasnt changing quick enough before redline and therefore just hit the limiter.

this problem will be solved very soon as my g/box is being rebuilt much much stronger

at what rev does the gcg hi flowed turbo's kick in?

is there any site to help me on this?

i was more thinking on hi flowing but last thing i want is a laggy turbo that goes off for a bit then my car changes gear... no benefit at all

aquariuz6 - you have posted a number of threads in the past month.

In each one you are asking something totally different, or very similar questions

You need to set a goal and stick to it

Then read the RB25 Dyno Sticky and see what works for you.

If you then compare the turbos yourself, and plug that against the goal that you end up deciding on.

Im not trying to be rude or anything, but we cant really help you, if you cant decide and then stick to it.

As RB Power said, you have an auto, if you get the right convertor you wont loose bottom end as much

    • Sounds more like what Brad said, that it's mainly transfer. What pad bed in procedure did you use, and did you replace/machine the rotors, or just swap pads?
    • The stutter is almost entirely in the pedal. I don't feel the brakes release and reapply as you would with ABS engaging but the pedal feels that way, without the brakes releasing. It only lasts for less than a second and the pedal is fine again. It's hard to explain, sorry.  I'll get under this weekend and just double check everything is tight. Fluid is at max where I left it.
    • What bedding in procedure did you use?   When you say stutter, what exactly do you mean? Like it feels like someone letting go of the brakes momentarily and regrabbing them again to get you to stop? Re-reading your post, and that is what it kind of makes me think you're explaining, like theres a little bit of a jolt, likely just as you're reaching a stop. I've only had this issue once. And if its caused by what caused mine, you will want to get the car up on stands again and check it over. Mine was a case of a caliper mounting bolt coming out and letting the caliper rotate on the other remaining bolt and gave play in a wheel as it came to a stop. But not every stop either!
    • Yeop... binned it   This will be a summary will not many pics atm and cbf  Fixed the samsonas - it was totally munched Put a new precision 7675 T4 on with proper split pulse mani Got to Sydney to get to car - drove to canberra to get racecar - drive back to sydney that night Next day all day at Plasmaman putting on new clamps cleaning some things up and adding another large engine oil cooler sitting at the rear above diffuser to keep things cooler Next day - Tuesday - on Dyno - killer wikid awesome pumped out really good numbers - more mid range and on lower boost levels Wednesday - first prac - all day again getting the suspension right - had to borrow front suspension again - out do a lap come in - out do a lap - in - what i had just couldnt handle the load at the more consistent higher speeds - got a lap in at the end of the day that was pretty reasonable  Put it this way that lap wouldve had me in 4th in Pro am for the whole event - with only 700 hp and used tyres Thurs first official prac day - lap out warm up - then entered a hotlap with above setting and 80% effort took corners 1,2,3 and into 4 car felt awesome -  rear came around out of nowhere bang into the wall near front on at whatever 140 kmph Done, over, gone Just one of those how did that happen apparently as all indications show nothing out of the ordinary Got to spend the rest of the time at the event like I hadnt done before - was actually Ok mainly as I had my family and my boy is 9 and got treated like a rockstar Long trip home, lost a trailer wheel in nowhere land, X5 airbag suspension gave up half way across nullabour and rode on bumps stops (its now completely fine) had to do a 19 hr drive day on day 3 as accommodation got screwed up so just had to keep driving till found a town with some Now to reassess - hopefully the motor and other things are OK but yet to be seen too. There is no easy fix there is no i'll just order that part and get it sent - we'll have a talk to people see what can happen and what the go is but at minimum its rebuild from scratch struts forward and alot of time effort and $ should and if I return and if but maybe/ when  I have the cage tied into the front strut towers - if I didnt have that things couldnt been worse you can say its just a front end but if you know what goes into these cars... you'll know what that actually means in reality   Car was very fast. Disappointing we just didnt get to show it Effort doesnt win you races though     Apparently this is motorsport !  
    • Thanks, will do that.  Thankfully they still feel great.
