Ugh... t04e... the good ole poor mans turbo :bomb_ie:

Either way, totally dependant on the spec of the T04e you have.

There are probably 100 different combinations.

Be prepared for poor power delivery, and poor response... i know, i had one (.82 rear, 500hp front end)

^ as above.

You've mentioned a 450/500hp turbo and a 700hp turbo... i think you need to research what your doing

i understand thy are very different..... but im struggling to decide...whether i want my car to be just big horse power... or i still do what ive been doing for drift...

ill start at injectors.. atm its pushing 212 rwkw... with the injectors they should unlock a little more power as the stockies are only at about 75%.... r31 nismoid... whats your suggestion on this whole thing... cause i really dont know what is better and what not

Well its generally determined by cost.

GT35 = rebuild plus a lot of other stuff, 15k i reckon is a good number to match with 350rwkw.

GT-RS, bolt on, still within the motor limit and good response... less than half the GT35 route too

It wont look as flash though as its not a big donky cover like the t04e probably has on it (.7AR front), but will do the job a fair portion better.

t04z is bigger again & a great turbo. I got a gt3540 and once it was too expensive to go back i reslied i really should of got a t04z. My turbo is the biggest draw back in my whole system. Only thing is tho on a built 2.5l engine it will be laggy. I guess it just depends on what your application is.

what if i decided to get the exaust houseing change to like a .61.... wouldnt that reduce lag... cause i wanna drift on track....and with a laggy turbo its not much fun.. godl..turboz are so ridiculiously over priced!! :D

Turbo's when properly taken care of, should end up being cheaper then your engine oil.

their service life exceeds that of most engine rebuilds in the diesel world i hear.

Have you checked the cost of a modern, internally lubricated supercharger?... :D

    • Swapped the injectors around and the misfire followed. I went ahead and ordered the Deatschwerks 550cc injectors and am currently waiting for them to be ship and arrive. In the meantime, I've had my Nistune soldered to the ECU. Tested it, and and tried it out with the software. Everything should be prepared for when the injectors arrive.  
    • Yeah they charge a little extra for mods , last year I noted no mods but I did have an exhaust fitted after that so  better to let them know cause these kinds of things can cause the policy to be void if you ever need to claim.
    • Hello, just just bought an 1999 enr34 with a stock rb25neo and I'm looking to upgrade the engine to 500whp I know some basic things but wondering if there are things I'll need to do to upgrade the stock block and all the bits and pieces to achieve this.
    • Thanks everyone for the replies and suggestions. Got the seats out (hoping I could find some existing grommets but no such luck). By tapping and measuring etc. I could figure out where I could drill through if needed. But first I borrowed an inspection camera and managed to go through factory holes in the chassis rail and could see that the captive nut was holding steady which is why it could retighten. So it was indeed a stripped section of thread, so I applied downforce by levering the bolt head with a screwdriver and went slowly back and forth until it came out. Camera helped a lot cos I could monitor that the captive nut was holding tight. Now I just have one very seized main subframe nut to tackle 😅
    • BOVs do have a purpose, if you ever log pressure before and after the throttle body, you will see a spike pre throttle on lift off from a WOT condition. Enough to bend throttle blades / damage e-throttle motors or simple assist in blowing off cooler pipes. FWIW, the above on really applies to those running at least 2 bar of boost. OP shouldn't have an issue, on the other hand, here are some videos of my shit box over a decade ago with some succulent dose with the airbox on and off. That shit box is unrecognisable these days 🫠
