I know you cant see factory turbos on a stock motor as its covered by a heat shield....

But you do understand that you will have to do other things as well if you bolt on a turbo????

what would i have to do... i only wanna run 6-8psi...therefore u dont have to change pistons and cams ect...?

All i thought i would have to do is... buy a turbo manifold and a stock turbo and bolt it on???

is this not correct?

im not gonna run high psi cause i know it will blow me engine

Nah you need a bit of modification to run a turbo, even if its at low boost. Stock rb25's only run low boost and as said above, its pretty obvious if you have a turbo... :ermm:

Correct me if i'm wrong but if you do put a turbo on and then have an accident you'd be screwed. Presumeably your insurance company would'nt pay and you would cop the 7 demerit point fine for driving a restricted vehicle, thus lose your licence>>P plater. Is it really worth it?

If you want to treat a copper like an idiot eg: "Its a stock N/A sir, I swear", then you will be treated like a smartarse and probably have the book thrown at you.

Also, as mentioned, what happens if you kill someone, maim or just destory someone else's car and don't have any insurance ? Just a case of "I hope no one saw me hit that person/car?".

Your not allowed too have a turbocharged car - accept it.

JUST CUT HOLE IN FIRE WALL HAVE MANIFOLD AN INTAKE PIPE LEADING THROUGH FIRE WALL

INTO GLOVE BOX WHERE YOU CAN HAVE YOUR STANDARD TURBO RUNNING 6 POUNDS AND THE COPS WONT KNOW TRUST ME ITS A GOOD IDEA!!!

Edited by villain

Your also gonna need a intercooler, even the factory one is visible.... Even though some cops couldn't tell a engine from their elbow, im sure they will spot the factory intercooler or piping...

just my 2 cents

I notice you have a carbon skin bonnet - you have enough to worry about if a cop pulls you over without having a turbo hidden in the glovebox/under the bonnet.

yes, trying to get away with adding a turbo to an already LOOK AT ME!! car is asking for trouble.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
