hey garry!

just remember that if you go after market turbo, or even hiflow, running an engine management system of some kind would be a good idea :P

Good idea. But nowhere near essential :)

lol yeah ... TRU TRU

but i dont wanna run not much more power, say even if i get to 300RWHP i'd be happy with that!!

i dunno wat the problem is, but didnt smoke dismorning or going to work at all... could be pcv needs a clean + pipes!!

still a new turbo / re/build wuld be good 2 :rofl: just need a good place 2 get it

cheapest option is a KKR 430 or 480 (laggy) turbo $700-800 with custom dump $170 otomoto.com.au

2.2k will get you a HKS GT RS

Buy a R34 turbo ~$450 and u can hi-flow it $1.3k and it will support 360/370rwhp

but at that stage you will need a fair few more supporting mods

i suggest the Jay Car electronic boost controller kit ($80) to control boost or a TurboTech from ebay $29

a Apexi SAFC 2nd hand will be $250-300 and this will net you alottttttt of your power

I mean a R34 turbo will support 280rwhp with everything lining up eg manifold, water, oil lines

and if u want more power after that u can hi flow it, it has a larger rear housing (same as the VG30) so it will support more power then a Hi-Flow R33 turbo

I suggest getting a dump/front pipe too

3inch turbo Exhaust

Front Mounted Intercooler

pod filter

Manual/Electronic boost control

Safc <---------- makes alot of the power with a good tune

Fuel pump (if you wanna play it safe)

will net you 280rwhp+

I got the turbo from Jshop at the time, Not sure if he can get another one for that price but yer it was a ausome bargen, my sig tell the story.

On a R33 you wouldnt need to change you ECU as the Hybrid is a mix of 32rear housing "Quick spool times" and the R33 intake, But it was BB and from what I was told could support up to 25PSI

I took it off my self, they only repair/rebuild or get new ones in they dont actuallt take them off the car for you.

Also forgot to add the turbo is now running a standard 10 psi with out a boost controller, can only go up now haha :P (with a controler)

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
