a 3076 will bolt up to a standard manifold, but you may need some oil fittings.

as for the ecu, any aftermarket ecu will do the trick. you are best of asking the person who is going to tune it what they prefer. by using what they know the best you will get the best tune from them. if u get something they aren't familiar with you won't get as good of a result.

and i think a 3076 might be a bit big for a rb20 unless you are chasing big power. it will partly depend on what housing size you get.

but i don't know that much about what turbo is suitable for rb20's.

It does fit on the standard manifold...but by about 2mm you are best off getting a spacer made up to give the compressor a bit more clearence, apart from that you may need new oil and water lines and the intake will need to be jigged slightly

actually the spacer you need is about an inch thick. i installed a 3076 on a mates 33. and you will need a new intake pipe as the compressor housing needs a 4" intake , and you need to make a few mods to the 'hot' cooler pipe.

a good bolt up replacement is a highflowed r33 turbo from gcg. they are a 100% factory fit, but as your turbo isn't standard some of the oil and water lines may have been altered, but a trip to a local hose place should sort you out.

ya an inch thick is what mine was too! i was saying it did 'fit' straight on to my manifold by 2mm but it was deemed more clearence would be wise ha ha

Im gonna be unoriginal and say that a GTRS or garret equivalent would be good on a RB20, cause the 3076 on my car felt a little laggy and that was with a 25

    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
    • thanks GTSboy. My confusion at the moment is i am trying to locate the ignition, ECU battery power and the ECU negative The closest thing i can find is the for the S15 on Page 8 of the Wiring Specialties web page https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9F33_M_GgENQnZ6STMxVmVNd1E/view?resourcekey=0-eZ4nNRwRoqa1qvKlWWHm8A I cannot find the same diagram for the R33 RB25DET Series 2 dash plug pin out.... Do you know what the Pins? or know where i can find the same pinout diagram for the RB dash plug? Thanks for the advice on the box... i like a 6 speed so might be on the lookout or the box now.. a topic of discussion for another post...
    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
