Item: R33 Rb25 Turbo

Location: Sydney

Conditon: 2nd Hand - excellent condition. Minimal shaft play

Price: $340 without actuator

Reason for sale: Turbo upgrade, turbo has only just been taken off

Pickup Only unless someone interstate is really desperate.

Other Info: I will need the actuator, hence will be selling minus the actuator. If you have an Rb20 you are much better off just wacking the one on from your old turbo. This turbo has the metal compressor wheel not the nylon one which is a bonus.

Great condition, minimal shaft Play. Run at stock boost still last year where it was raised to 9.5psi and made 172rwkw on a conservative dyno. Hasn't seen a track day and I don't drive it hard.

Only recently been removed from car (2-3 weeks ago)

It's done a genuine 105k kms. Oil changed every 5000km

Very minimal shaft play.

Not pushed hard like other turbos. Highest boost run is 9.5psi for the last year. Before that stock 7psi.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
