Hey guys, you probably recognise the title type, as i made a similar thread last week when i was going to get my car back, what should i do next.

This time, i am writing to you on advice you can give me on what i should do, as i got my car back friday, saturday night, BLEW MY TURBO.

He is saying, same turbo back on, for $600, but i wanna bigger turbo for not a large amount of money, or if someone is selling there high flowed turbo.

I have been reading up on the T70 turbo off ebay, but if i buy the turbo itself, whatelse would i need?

or is a t3/t4 turbo what you recommend?

the car was doing 276hp - 206 kw with standard turbo, i wanna notch that up a fair bit, would either of these do this or what will?

thanks guys

to get the most out if it you will most likely need: ecu, injectors, fuel pump, clutch, afm, tyres, boost controller, intercooler, exhaust

gcg hiflow $2000

hks 2530 $1300

will work with the usual basic upgrades

r34 stocker $650

r33 stocker $500

well put your opinions with a price, i havnt got a fixed price in my head.

mate your first post didn't ask for prices, just opinions. We gave our opinions, you do the hard work and get prices.

Nengun have the HKS GT2835 pro s at $2300 brand new.

CGC hi flow, what Paully said.

I am guessing you are not running an RB20 if you had 206kw on a stock turbo...

What are we talking?

Also, don't even bother with Ebay... you will most likely throw your money away and have to buy another turbo meaning you could have purchased something that would out perform and out last what you end up with.

work out what you want the car to do for you, what sort of characteristics you want, and start there.

Check the health of your motor for a start, to see what you are working with. Compression and leak down tests. No point throwing lots of power at something thats half dead.

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
