Anyone else gotten over the apparent " 250rwkw " limit using standard compression and pump fuel? My car is geting dyno tuned next week and i will be really dissapointed if the limiting factor is compression.

We have had 305 rwkw out of an R34GTT. Tomei 260 Poncams, R33GTR intercooler, ported and polished cylinder head, standard head gasket (I don't use thick ones) and a Garret GT30. It wasn't all nice to drive, too peaky, lots of lag, poor throtle response.

I'm quite suprised the GT30 didnt fair to well in terms of response? Usually you can get max boost at a tad over 4000rpm on an SR so surely it would have been better on a NEO?

Well it depends on the setup eg manifold design and what the target boost pressure is. However here's a nice example of a HKS GT3037 (aka GT30R with a custom T25 flanged housing) with a 0.87 housing on an S14;

So I naturally would have thought the response would have been better on the RB25?

You can read more about that chart I posted up here;

(One thing to note is I am not sure if the 0.87 in the HKS T25 flanged is the same as the 0.87 in the GT T3 housings, even with the same turbine...) Sorry for going OT but yeah, interested in how the GT30R works with the NEO.

Edited by Busky2k

Interesting topic id say it would be the same for the neo as it is the non neo and obviously depend on the set up.

My question is this, Would a large turbo making 250rwkw easily put less stress on a engine than a small turbo at high boost / peak to above peak efficency?

Just deciding on a turbo for a customers car, 34gtt, either a 2871inwg in a modified nissan ex housing, or a 3037in wastegate, or a gt35r .84 ex wastegate , he wants 300rwkw, but i think this will be pushing it. Any ideas?(99% street 1%drags)

1. does the customer have stock internals...?

2.if doesnt want to crack it open hks 2835pro s or 3037 pro s the 2871 you get too much back pressure due to small ex housing.

3. if engine is going to be cracked open i would suggest the gt35r and that will take u way over 300rwkw.

4. if u want a respnsive fun car then i would more inclined to go for the 2835 or 3037 . 2835 pro s is 420ps and the 3037 pro s is 480ps .

cheers

sorry to bring up this old thread but whats the limits on a NEO RB25DET before you gotta crack it open??? im askin coz i have heard anywhere from 250awkw to 350 awkw which is a big difference... and what would be the best turbo to use (street car looking for good response) up untill internal have to be replaced? would it be smart to just high flow the stock one?

I think 350rwkw is massively over generous.

it would late 5 minutes. maybe.

GCG high flow rocks.

If you are in Melbourne....

350 is over generous hey??? that's what i thought... i just picked up an old fast fours mag of a mate yesterday with the tunning guide for RB20s and RB25s and it says in there that if you wanna run anywhere around 300rwkw on stock internals then you better be very careful... so i guess aroung 270 - 280 would be ok if the tunning is right... once i get to about 200rwkw i mite ivestigate cgc bit more... thanks for you reply..

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
