gday guys

just wondering if anyone has heard of this specific turbo?

Apexi AX53B70 turbo

if so im just after the power rating and so forth and the quality of the turbo

thanks

chris

Hey mate it will depend on the number on the exhaust housing there are a few different ones

The P25 is rated at 380hp and the P28 is about 5-600hp but there is also a pretty noticeable size difference, i mean a 600hp turbo is generally BIG physically

I had a AX53B70 P25 on my RB25 and it was awesome! I had several tuners say to me that its response was like nothing they had seen and it managed 255rwkw at 17psi, I wouldnt go anymore than that as i did and snapped a shaft after the exhaust wheel became unbalanced, the exhaust wheel is ceramic so it is not to fond of masive boost so keep it below 18psi and you will be right.

It is a great turbo i miss mine and wish i never broke it :P I still have it on my desk at work ad dream about how good my car was when i had it lol....you could say i am rather attached to it

a ceramic wheel that is still safe when boosting around 17psi?

it is ceramic but it holds together better than the stock ones just dont run like 25psi through it and it will live, even the turbos used in RX6 kits use ceramic...obviously a ceramic designed for higher boost

hmmm Nath's rx6's seen 1.8 bar

three dyno pulls would have thought that would have been enough to have it let go

it may live as the ceramic seems much more hardy than the factory stuff, but i have a friend who broke two of them on his s15 before changing to somthing else

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
