hey aussie fellas,

First i'd like to start by saying hello and I am new here.. I am known at the nissansilvia forum as same username...

I really need some help with some non ca18/sr20 engine questions..

I am going to buy a rb25det on tuesday in bangkok.. yeh I live in thailand, but born in melbourne!

I really need to know what is the stock turbo on a r33/r32 rb25 engine. is it the T28?

has anyone here tried a twin T25 on a RB25det to make a RB25DETT

or what about 2x T28 turbos on a rb25DET to make a RB25DETT with 2xT28

anyone know of how many HP it would make as a 2wheel drive on a dyno etc... or 1/4mile times..

any infos you have will be so happy!

RB20/25 engines are all T3 flange turbo's. I have done a twin turbo T28's on a 25 head before and its not worth the time and money involved unless thats something specific you really want. Just spend that money on a bolt on upgrade and you will be happy.

R32 = RB20

R33 = RB25

as mentioned, stock turbo is of a T3 flange.

in reality it is about the same specs as a T28 of and S14/S14 200sx.

GTRGeoff is the user on here who has/had a twin turbo RB25.

I believe he used the Stock GTR turbo's (which are of a T28 nature)

Ask him for his experiences.

if you must have twin turbo, just buy an RB26 instead.

you get a better motor to start with too.

    • Impossible to remove the housing while turbo is installed on the manifold on the engine. So I have to do it anyways. I plugged it so there will not be any debris in there. Will vacuum aswell 
    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
