Sounds good man, should make some good power.

Have you upgraded the clutch and gone to a FMIC?

Who are you going to get to tune it, and what sort of power you going for?

Should be able to hit 260rwkw if all goes well.

not sure mate,

I havent seen any other rb25's with this type of turbo, hopefully 260 but i just want a good power figure with not much lag..

Otherwise i would've gone with a GT35/40 they make really good power but they have to much lag.

I am pretty sure there is a guy on the forums running a 3071 and making 300rwkw on a internally stock RB25.

Hi mate I've just had the same turbo installed on my RB25 plus a bit extra of course :mellow:

It's stock internals but everything else except the plenum is modified and it goes in to tune hopefully this week.

I'll let you know what power figure it makes, good luck with your car.

well turbo has changed read as in first post, this one has a tad more power..

Im going low mount at this stage, because high will just get me into trouble. Be good for show but yeh you understand.

Im just going with advice from experts, like a said a gt35/40r(300kw and more) from what ive heard, would've been nice and made a buckert load of power but lag and prob wrecking my engine lol..

anyways things are now in action, will be finished shortly

P.S adam is teh gay.

i dont want another 50rwkw and ill get that if i add neons..

my stripe is gone too :P

      Hypergear ATR45 SAT Turbo With addons (brand new - never used)

      Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action

      Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand.

      Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!

      Hypergear ATR45 SAT Turbo With addons (brand new - never used)

      I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
