On the topic of rb25 turbos. Is there a difference between the s1 and s2 turbos? i was at an importer today having a look and there was 2 'rb25' turbos there. One looked smaller that the other. The other one looked to have a larger rear housing...

Oh dear. Search is your friend. Type in "r33+ S1+ S2+ turbo+"

S2 and S1 are the same except that the S2 have a lighter impeller wheel than S1 (slightly faster spooling)

.. only the 34 neo turbs have bigger housings i'm pretty sure (vg30 rear)

r34 neo turbos use a plastic or nylon wheel ... the turbo is fundermentally the same as the r33 turbo no larger housing

R33 series 2 and R34 GTT have Plastic compressor wheel (front of the turbo) and ceramic exhaust wheel (back of the turbo)

R33 series 1 has steel compressor wheel and ceramic exhaust wheel)

R33 series 1 and 2 have exactly the same size housings/wheels.

R34 GTT has a LARGER exhaust housing and exhaust wheel

Rebuild of a blown R33 gtst turbo (series 1 or 2) will start around $1000 for a non ball bearing, steel wheels on both ends, hiflow and go up to just over $2K for the same job using Ball bearing cartridge.

  • 5 months later...

so how much boost can ur high-flow take? turbo dave.....

do u no its limit?

and are restricted to 15psi?

or is becoz of ur e-mange u can boost higher than a 1bar???

i tht u would get a bit more power than that outa a high-flow..

sorry turbo dave

ive only FMIC, CAT-BACK HKS dragger, spiltfires with re-gapped ngk plugs to 0.8, apexi neo afc, bleed valve

and i make 190rwkw...at 13psi

mayb u need standalone mangement....

im after power fc, after fuel pump, and z32 afm...

but im hoping to pull bigger numbers than that, wit a high-flow....

:(

Mine is an auto so they drag about 25-30rwkw I have been told, so if it was manual it would be around 250-260rwkw which is as far as want to go with a stock engine.

If you are wanting more from a stock engine then I think the longevity of your engine and turbo will suffer.

I was also told by the guy who HiFlowed my turbo that 15psi is the sweet spot for that turbo.

Hope you get what you are aiming for from your HiFlow but the kw number isnt of much importance to me, as long as it drives good and Im happy with the power then thats all I want.

No offence but the 190rwkw you have wouldnt feel anything like a 235rwkw Hiflow.

Also the midrange pull from my car now is unreal, my stock turbo wasnt even close to being in the same race.

I am no expert but these are my opinions from what I have experienced and read about so far.

i recon wit a power fc and z32 afm, and a new fuel pump, i will be pushin close to those numbers...

my mid-range is crap now..lol

but dont forget im still on the stock computer, wit just a piggy-back...

so thats my main problem...

but wit a pfc, that should be solved...

and i recon ur e-mange fix'd ur mid-range issue too...

but how does ur e-mange handle wit the high-flow?

why not go wit standalone???

and im unsure about how much an auto/manual rb25det engine can take?

i tht it would b around the 300rwkw mark? but thats me..

dont forget every turbo and engine is different..

so yeah,

oh, by the way dave..urs is a series 2 rit?

Yeah Series2, 300rwkw is way more than I have seen a hiflow pull from what I have read on here in the rb25 results thread, safely anyway.

The stock exhaust housing runs out before then I think so thats when the VG30 rear housing comes into it along with a little more lagg.

But yeah, I was told 260rwkw limit on the stock engine if I want it to last so thats about 235rwkw with an auto like I said before.

From my understanding the Emanage Ultimate is very adjustable and doesnt hinder power output due to being a piggyback, I went for the Piggyback as they are more compatible when running an electronic auto.

Look through any of the major threads relating to ECU's and new engine management systems... IT should show you that the end result between the EMU and PFC are pretty much the same... It just depends on what your tuner is good at tuning etc...

Both are great units... and will net the same result in the end for you provided you have a competent tuner.

    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
