No it needs a manifold change but the STD one is total crap

any way. The turbo is a PER4MANZ design so the model

numbers are not important. This turbo has made 620RWHP

on a GTR with no more lag than STD GTR turbos.

Cost is about $6000 inc Turbo-gate-manifold and fitting,

and wont have the thrust wear problems that the

trust turbo has.

Any Turbo that uses the nasty RB25 manifold in a high power

application must be avoided, only good for mild power out

put.

Rob,

I agree with Steve, the stock exhaust manifold design is dreadful, and whatever turbo you put on this should be removed. Plus if you want decent power then an external wastegate is the only way to go, most turbo's over 400hp only come in an external wastegate format.

Maybe you should do a bit more research on these cause they are so different...

Trust turbos as well as any other come in various sizes trims hp ratings, Rob a TD06 on your car may be a bit laggy, depending on exhaust size.

Ex wastegate New manifold Dump, intake pipes, new oil and water lines

hhmm...heaps of easier options mate

It's not a cheap exercise by the time your finished, and determining the effect of the turbo on the car can be quite difficult. The best option is to get taken for a drive in a similar car to yours with the turbo done, then you can determin whether it is too laggy, enought power etc.

HKS get the turbos from garret.

HKS have their own build spec. combo's that they put together from Garret parts.

These are what HKS believe offer the best performance for what ever goal HKS had in mind.

The same goals they have may not be yours however. So a turbo builder that has been around a while may have more to offer you in terms of a purpose built turbo for your needs.

Ive put a T4 compressor and wheel on the original R33 Original Ex housing with a T4 wheel

However still playing with it as i need a different comp wheel for smooth driveability and an external wastegate

Ill get there in 1 day

My opinion is the HKS have newer technological efficient turbos which spool perhaps slightly quicker due to design to wheels.

I would Jump at the chance however to own a Ballbearing GT series Garrett turbo and still get full spool by under 3500rpm

    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
