id go 430 for rb 20 and 480 for 25 (based on what i saw from the Forced Induction - Turbo upgrade threads).

Also the GT Autosound LS1 R34 is using twin KKR turbos.

Ive read they are German made...so it must be good :)

here is all the stuff on the kkr 480

Big power potential at a bargain price

I think you are thinking of the KKK turbochargers which are German.

These ones are chinese turbos, and they are crap to say the least.

Reported needs of fijity modifications to the dump pipe to fit it on the stock manifold, and because of these modifications the turbo could be put on with a bit of stress on one side of the mounts which will cause something to break. Also you have to watch out for the oil lines going to the turbo and find out if they have to be bigger or not... Sounds like a whole lot of stuffing around if you ask me or anyone else in forced induction.

Suit VL Commonwhores.

hahaha so what would be the best turbo for price and drifting out of all the turbos and could you give me a little bit of info on them because im researching and trying to get the best value for money and i dont want some crap chinese turbo that will blow up as soon as it hits the boost

to be honest, to be proper you would want to have about 2,500 bucks handy and set aside for doing it and have an EMU already.

I have a highflow turbo and its on the stock ecu and im getting, well i was getting 230kms per tank while driving. not exactly good economy. Tune it with a power fc or an emanage and expect it to feel much better and return good economy.

What turbo you ask? a Garrett or a HKS option would be good. I have heard nothing but good things about HKS GT-RS.

I have just installed a KKR430 turbo to my RB20. The bolt on really easy. I got the RB dump pipe to suit too, so that made life a little easier too. The only mods you have to do are the turbo outlet (not being the normal three bolt nissan, so it takes a silicone 90degree bend and a bit of intercooler piping to fix) the turbo inlet (I just cut down my standard intake pipe so it was big enough to fit) and a little bit of grinding on a bulbus fixing point for a bolt on the exhaust manifold. So all up it was a really easy fit!

Hey guys

Yeah i ran one on my Cefiro last year, good turbos for the price however without a tune/remap they are ultra laggy, as you would expect throwing a larger then stock turbo on without touching it. With a remap i picked up a fair wack of responce but i still had no power below 4000 rpm... above that it just took off.

Then on the 32 i fitted a Sliding highflow on my rb20, which i found to be better in terms of responce and power, not to mention ease of fit.

I now have a RB25 and stock turbo lol... but im more then happy with it atm (215 rwkw and loads of torque)

i had a kkr 430 on my rb25det. it was alright i thought. had no problem with it at all. but id go with the hks gt-rs aswell. heard very good feedback on them. and has a nice power curve. i think im going highmount on my next rb25. :thumbsup:

    • 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
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
    • Ah coolant overflow, previous discussions make way more sense now lol.
