hey guys , just wondering those of you who have a 34 what type of turbos are you running? as im looking to up the cheaply high flowed turbo i have (stock high flowed) as i dont want to go down the path of a aftermarket computer yet .. any suggestions would be good !

Reason for keeping it stock looking - i want to re-use the turbo heatsheild as cops these days are a pain !! rather not want to get defected

Cheers

I was looking at upgrading my turbo to a Apexi AX53B70 as it's low mount, internal gated and apexi said "The AX53B70 turbine power output is around 600HP depending upon application" it uses the ihi catridge so can still be rebuilt with apexi dead... another choice would be a GT-RS which would keep everything looking stock as it comes in a bolt on kit, depends how much you wana spend? wont get full potential out of teh turbo with a stock ecu unless remaped.

Btw my turbo is stock

There is 3 AX53B70s the p21 is used as a twin set up on GTRs, the P25 is rated to 380hp, I have this it is really responsive and made 245rwkw at 14psi on my car, so there is a bit more in it yet and the P28 which is a big high mount job thats the 600hp one

The P25 would be a good choice Vish I love mine but you may have trouble getting one. Apexi turbos are rare these days! I know I have been unable to get my hands on a RX6 kit, websites say they have them but when you try to order they say they are out of stock

ah cool gives me some ideas on them rite now im running a gcg stage 1 high flow which was at that time cheaper since i was on a budget .. spool up is great power wise it lacks mid to high end... hence upgrading..

Its hard to buy them brand new as they are a discontinued item, i have seen a couple go through yahoo auctions for around $800 second hand

Thanks guy i tried searcing a few places without much luck not many people seem to know about them .. any one knows anything about a stage 2 highflow or slide overmax ?

Seriously mate their isn't much point in upgrading the turbo (which is already decent) until you get the best out of it by way of after market management. That said the slide max high flow is a good thing, I have seen one make 200rwkw at 5psi

    • When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?
    • Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
    • yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
