I am interested in a high flow of an Rb25 turbo, as long as there is not too much involved with getting the lines altered.

Is there any people in for definate yet, or is it still all in the process at the moment?

Thanks,

Abu

Ok people, ive spoken to John again and this is the go. With the JOURNAL bearing high flow for $1100, you need to provide John with your turbo and the actuator for it to be highflowed. You dont need to provide the LINES as you can use your stock lines. Now if anybody wants a ball bearing these will be $1550, but five people are needed to purcahse this. With the ball bearing, you need to provide the lines as John will modify them. Otherwise you can do it yourself. Everything else, as in bolts, washers will be provided to bolt back on to your turbo. There is not a lot of mucking around.

Heres all the information you guys need. So is anyone in?

SoFly and Munkey: $1550 for ball bearings on the condition that we get five. You need to provide your oil and water lines to be modified though.

Abu: If you get a journal bearning, all you need is the turbo (with actuator) as the lines do not need to be modified (turbo is only oil cooled anyway). If you want ball bearning, you need to supply the lines, and they will be modified as part of the cost

Cheers

Great to see you guys dealing with Precision Turbo's again! My GB sparked approx 40 high flows all with excellent results!

Good luck to all

I installed one of Johns BB R33/VG30 highflows on the weekend.And honestly cant wipe the smile off my face.

The car will be tuned Monday week so ive just been driving around off boost and occasionally creeping into the 2psi range.Very torquey an boost starts at about 2000rpm.Had to go to Pirtek to get some braided line made up,but its DEFINATLEY worth the effort.

With the cams,555s and Z32 that will be installed next week with the tune i will probably hit 270rwkw at 1.2bar.

If you can stretch your budget i would seriously consider the BB option!

There was a delay at UAS so i wont get my car back till Wednesday night.

Suspense is killing me!

What i know so far is that the boost will be set on high at 16psi and low at 10psi.

Should a safe and solid tune.Im hoping for 260rwkw.

Hey guys.

I know not everyone has the priveledge of being able to get a turbo at wholesale price, but I recommend making friends with someone that works at Repco, cos I can get a Garrett GT30RS Twin BB for approx $1300 - $1400 through a friend. I dunno, it seems like a lot of money for a journal bearing turbo. Im currently running a journal bearing unit with VG30 housing and im not happy with the amount of lag, but I only payed $800.

Im not trying to be a dick, just throwing some other ideas into the mix. Even at RRP I reckon a new twin BB unit would be worth the extra few hundred.

Croydon are doing some really good prices: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=169697

    • You'd want to cap off the re-entry back into the dump too. Just something flat that can be held on by the Vband.
    • Thanks for the recap Matt Z. It was a great day out and I know you have said it already, but we couldn’t have done it without the volunteers.
    • Couldn't agree anymore, massive thanks to all that came by, helped out, or those who just wanted to talk cars. You are the community that make this such a great car club. cant wait for what we have planned for the future
    • Looking at the photos, you could easily just drop this pipe and dump into atmosphere  Just 1 or 2 quick hits for data acquisition - if have a heat shield material and/or sheet metal, maybe just use wire/metal cable ties and attach it in a way to deflect heat from melting nearby wires.
