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

    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
