Ok everyone has be telling me for ages that my turbo can't be stock for the power it makes.

I just recently heard some strange noises from the turbo area and decided to pull it off. The rear housing is standard as is the turbine(48mm ceramic). The compressor is 49.5mm top and 64mm lower. I compared it to a VG30bb and the trim on the blades is also different. The compressor cover is also a 45V2 VG30bb unit with slight machining.

Can anyone tell me if the 45V4 rb25 compressor is the same dimentions as the Vg30 or More like mine???? meggala???

Would be good to work out if it has been modified, seems to work very well. If it does turn out to be non standard, I would think a VG30 comp cover and high flow wheel with the same trim would be a very cheap upgrade.

full boost by 2500 to 3000

218rwkw @1bar

225rwkw @1.1bar

I am having it rebuild with a larger VG30 exhaust housing. I will post the result next week after it's finished and dyno'd.

the car came over with a chipped computer and massive fuel filter-go figure. maybe it had a package deal done, I have seen the advertised by tuning shops in japan.

Boosted,

What other mods have you done my goal is around 230Kw at the wheels dont wanna go too far past this as i still want a daily driver and something reliable...

Just wanna know what i need to get it to that kinda power.. slowlu buiding up.. i'll prolly get there in about 10 years though.

paydro,

the kit cost me $400 out of the local trading post. Normally around $1400.

The car will run a high 12 without the Nitrous. Tyres permitting a low 12 with the switch flicked. after I set it up on 50hp a 100hp jet goes in and 11's are on.

sounds very cool to me.

im in the process of upgrading my standard r33 for 12 sec passes but i dont want to use nos yet i want to keep the internals stock as well but planning on using a apexi power fc and avcr boost controller with an obvious turbo upgrade or larger internals.

theres a few other things ive got inmind but ill se how this goes first.

but nos definatley sounds like fun.

p.s. good pick up on the nos

drivebai, performance wise the car has a zaust, filter, cat in pipe, HKS EVC, Power FC, Cold air intake, Greddy front mount intercooler, oil/air seperator, octane booster for 12sec run and a HKS solid centre twin plate clutch. Also running 255 17" on the back.

Boostd thanks man.. i have all those mods except for about 90% of them hehehe so it looks like i will need Power FC, front mount oil/air separator, and hi flow turbo.. basically i need all the expensive stuff... yeah i got 255 17" on the back as well man... I wish you were in Sydney dude.. cos you are pretty much where i am aiming for round 230rwkw... would have been good if you could have taken me for a spin in your car.. so i can see what 230rwkw feels like and compare the differences between my fairly stock crappy car!!!. then i would have more incentive to save.. hehehe.

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
