paulr33 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 its been done before - try searching on it from memory stockymcstock has a supercharged rb30det Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/200998-supercharging/#findComment-3574496 Share on other sites More sharing options...
PM-R33 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 I've seen it done on a RB a couple of years ago, personally i dont know why you would bother with a RB, for the money it would cost, you can get greater gains for less money with a good turbocharger setup. It is different however and pretty cool to see people doing something a little bit different.

sidewayssam Posted January 10, 2008 Author Share Posted January 10, 2008 yehi was thinking maybe turbo and supercharged, like some rallycars, my engine is already turboed and rebuilt but yeh i was thinkn to do something a little bit diffrent Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/200998-supercharging/#findComment-3574855 Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulr33 Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 i think when i look up supercharging on a skyline and read into it - it comes out expensive and lots of custom work if you are a fabricator / mechanic then i think its fine - but for your average dude who just wants a bolt on kit turbo is easier and better $ for kw etc Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/200998-supercharging/#findComment-3574868 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah a twin charged setup would be a good setup however extremely expensive to do and set up correctly. Would be interesting to find out how much something like that would cost. Has anyone in Aus ever twin charged a RB25? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/200998-supercharging/#findComment-3575494 Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulr33 Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 yeah stockymcstock has done it he has a superchaged rb30det with a gt40 it looks like a complicated, lengthy and expensive process do a search on some of his posts in the rb30 thread to find out what he has done etc Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/200998-supercharging/#findComment-3575501 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guilt-Toy Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 i was thinking about putting a toyota supercharger on my rb30det, make it come alive much earlier. I was looking at it last night, and there is lots of room to put one there.

strong Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 I dont think its fake it is in the same spot as the one in town and just has dual turbos. They created less lag but rob your top end Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/200998-supercharging/#findComment-3576424 Share on other sites More sharing options...

They created less lag but rob your top end Not true...kind off. If those superchargers are twin screw, then they will not limit the top end power at all. As for the pic, its been discussed before, and that particular thread came to a conclusion that it IS fake. Fake or not, its crap coz there is not way you can fit all that in a skyline engine bay .

VB- Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 ask stocky, from memory he said it wasnt worth it. its alot of time and effort for not much results, just get a correctly sized turbo, and with the leftover cash go RB30DET that pic of the twin charge kit isnt fake either, i thought it was at first too because the pipin looks dodge, but i've got a pic of it from another angle, and from what i can tell its real the only thing with that is with the way the piping is (from what i can see) the system wouldnt work, as they are booth running in parallel not series, and there doesnt seem to be any sort of valving in line either, think they just threw it together to try and look good lol Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/200998-supercharging/#findComment-3577329 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WazR32GTSt Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 i love suprechargers, they are a great upgrade on an NA engine.. hell i would love to put one on my V35. a guy on WA had one on his V35 before he sold it.. but for an engine that already comes out turbocharged, like the rb, it just seems silly to bother going with the R&D of a supercharger when you can just bolt up a different turbo if you're not happy with power. that alone is reason enough not to bother in my eyes Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/200998-supercharging/#findComment-3577449 Share on other sites More sharing options...
