Hi everyone.

a good mate of mine has picked up a rb30 powered gq wagon and has just put out a massive 100 hp , and 275 nm torque.

now its on dual fuel so im interested in the how it would go dropping in a stock low kay rb25det in its place.

has anyone experienced a turbo car on lpg before?

his not looking to set land speed records or do 4 wheel drifting around the local streets, just something with more grunt yet a simple conversion. that isn't stupidly expensive.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

this stuff was covered to death about 6 months ago when fuel prices went mad

theres an 8 page thread on it in here, do a search on LPG* and youll find it

i wouldnt have posted in here if i found anything useful in the search function.

the thing about GAS and turbos is that you have to run the gas through the turbo and the intercooler which makes a very funny explosion tank in case of a backfire (has happened many times before)

Gas needs to be developed more into a multi injector system that works well before it will be a good conversion IMHO.

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
