hey,

I want to buy a rb25 turbo and i think i have found one seems to be in good condition and the right place.

The picture of the turbo i received has the part number as 45V1. I did a search and it said this is the part number for a r34 rb25 turbo but also i saw something that this is also the code for a vg30det turbo? is this the case?

Anyway here is the link to the pic of the turbo http://www.pbase.com/image/17845412/original

It looks in good condition but is it an rb25 turbo? please any help appreciated!

thanx

evan

cool.

one of my mates is giving me his highflow off his vl ... with high compression it made 170kw@wheels on 14psi without a cooler (tolulene). i am going to trial it on my rb20, if it is too laggy and has bad driveability i will not buy it and get an rb20 turbo. i am leaning towards this because it can hold over 200rwkw and i know its in great condition. Thanx for your help.

Evan

P.S. anyone else used a highflow on their rb20? pros? cons?

    • Kinkstah, no, coilovers aren't illegal, especially as a bolt straight in. The illegal part will be if they're altering suspension geometry beyond factory limits, or the ride height is not legal.   Sounds like the blue slipper just didn't want to deal with any later possibility of mods appearing on the car.
    • The problem has always been that coilovers are able to be adjusted, almost at any time, to be too low. Most people who ever get/got defected for/with coilovers were actually afoul of the minimum ride height rule. So the interpretation by cops/inspectors was always that it is pointless to allow numpty to raise his coilovers and get the car inspected/cleared, then just drop them back down again as soon as they get around the corner from the inspection station.  This led to the interpretation that they were illegal unless rendered such that they can't be adjusted (ie, collars welded to the body, that sort of thing). That may or may not have ever actually been the official line, but I'm pretty sure it's not considered to be a solution these days. Coilovers themselves fall under clause 3.2 b of that manual, because they are an "installation of a variable ride height system" and they don't fit the exclusions in that clause (which point to air springs and other pneumatic adjusters). So, as per previous statements, they require engineering cert to be legal on the road. Once you have such cert, provided you do not adjust them outside the height range covered by the cert, you are OK. Without, you have an unroadworthy vehicle.
    • Here E10 is the cheapest fuel. And general advice is to not use it unless you hate your car. From what I remember it clogs up stuff in the fuel system or injectors?  With US/Canada being E10 across the board, does that mean that all fuel there is terrible?
    • Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW ) Edit: I checked. They aren't. https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-infosheet-light-vehicle-modifications-manual-suspension-and-ride-height.pdf
