You want to drift like everyone else...just get a highflow...

Haha that's awesome i don't know if it was your intention but you make it sound like you frown upon all the wannabe drifters. If you are building your car for drifting tho i wouldnt reccomend a t04z even with the smallest housing. Unless you plan on pumping the shit out of your clutch drifting needs response and mid range torque to get the wheels spinning. Once there spinning it takes bugger all power at high rpm to keep them spinning.

Lolz...glad to see someones picked up on it...

Back to the topic...like i said...if you want to drift like everyone else...don't even go the gt35...and 740cc injectors are overkill as well if you aren't pushing big numbers...

Why go through all that trouble to change housings...even if it can be done...

You want to drift like everyone else...just get a highflow...it will make enough power and keep you happy...

hmmmm..... the thing is i dont want to make enough power.. i wanna make plenty of it... i have a t04e garrett on it now... and it should make around 250rwkw after injectors and so forth... but themax torque is at like 4600rpm... i found a place that u can buy the t04z for the same price with the exaust housings changed.... so therefor higher power...less lag.... things like camshafts should increase spool time and putting an rb30 bottom end... now im gettin out of my league...lol...

ok... i didnt see the 2nd page to this lol..... ummm.... so if not a t04z recomended... what turbo is recommended...remembering that i do wanna make a nice sum of power..like 250rwkw +... im just really lost now.. the t04e is gay to drift with... i clutch kick the shite out of my car....and when it kicks in you almost go into a spin...lol...

Highflow, best responce pumps out 250rwkw and your laughing

Will be able to pump about 280 out at max.. wack in cams, injectors fuel pump and a oil cooler for good measure and your laughing find a cheap one in the FS section and then get it checked out, new seals etc and ur ready for tyre spinning fun

Or you can buy a big ass turbo and wack in a tiny housing .. woot

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.

More research as i said in another post.

T04Z is a 800-850HP turbo, bigger again than a GT35 (which i said a conservative 350rwkw).

Your talking 450rwkw+++ with a T04Z

I honestly thing you haven't taken anyones advice and researched.

If you simply put "T04Z" into the search feature you'd easily have worked out its an even sillier choice than the GT35

ok!!!..... farkin hell... instead of me suggesting random turboz.... can sumone suggest a turbo for drift that will make a large number of power... i wanna see other opinions rather than my own...

in my opinion i wouldnt do shit to ur 33 at all

id sell it and get and s15, if u want to drift do it a car that is made for drifting not the big boaty 33.

i sold my gtr and im looking for an s15 atm purely for drift, way cheaper to mod, newer and better car, imo

if u wanna really keep the 33 get a gt-rs turbo and some boost and that should do u some decent enough power. no point have haps of power with a to4z if it doesnt spool quickly, drift is all about response.

my 2c

Have a look in the Dyno results thread.

Anything from 200-250rwkw will be the power aim, and then its upto YOU to decide how much response (or top end) you want from that particular turbo as they all have differing characteristics.

Its a pretty easy question, just read the Dyno/FI Guide stickies.

I haven't had any expereince with Wolf but ive been told they're not the best. I belive without a doubt Motec is by far the best and has great logging capabilites. I wish i had got one but atm i couldnt justify the money so i got a Haltech e11v2. I'm very happy with it still.

motec is obviuosly the best but way too expensive for my liking.

who did u hear that wolf are not the best, one of my friends worked at rank rotary in melbourne before it got sold off and they specialised in them, i found them to be an awesome ecu and would recomend them to anyone.

haha seriously, u need to do some more reading. on both turbo setups and drift, you do not need big power to drift, your placing way too much emphasis on power to drift, ur just feeding that stereotype or R33 drifters. if you want to drift, u need to focus on ur suspension, steering and diff before u worry about massive power. then u practice and u get better, 200rwkw is more than enough power to learn to drift.

LOL.. i knew when i was reading this thread and Wolf got mentioned, Rank Rotary wouldnt be far behind.. :starwars: I also, from peoples experiences, would steer clear of Wolf.. and the no AFM setup doesnt help when you get EPA'd and the only check they do for ECU is unplugging the AFM to see if your car stalls.. :D (they may have revised these procedures since i was last there, but they thought they were pretty tricky dicky with this test)

Limpus - I was wondering the same thing.. Why hasnt ash come in here waving the 'search u kent' stick yet..? :D

      The powder coating came in at $250 EACH. The TRX rims got a coat of clearcoat on the outside only.

      Pops when backing off throttle, rough-ish sound through rev range.

      Keeping in mind that I am currently getting flat 10 L/100km on my RB25DET, which means >>500km/tank. I would test this car for vacuum leaks, check codes and AFM signal with NissDataScan as D says, check plugs, do a compression check while they are out.

      It is hard to be specific half way across the world...but it *seems* like it might have a minor issue. Is the idle stable and does it rev smoothly? I would not expect any pops out of what I am assuming is a standard ECU, standard tune, standard exhaust. You can use Nissan Data Scan to find out exactly what is happening when it runs, the cable/software is reasonably affordable if you are not planning on changing the ECU (which hopefully you are not with an NA skyline) BTW your mileage may not be that far off, these are heavy old tech cars, and being NA might mean you use a heavy foot to keep up with traffic....

      Hey guys! Y'all are the masters so figured I'd check in on a few items here. - My engine sounds ever-so-slightly more raspy than the other NA RB25s I've listened to. It's barely noticeable but definitely a slightly different sound. - When I back off the throttle at high RPM, I will sometimes get a pop out of the exhaust, assuming this can be diagnosed as misfire. Some history on the car: - Had an exhaust leak in auction sheet but was claimed to be fixed by seller (bought from USA importer).  - Car's coil packs and sparks were replaced when it was sold to me, but unsure on what the gap is and whether the coil packs are correct.  - A prior mechanic had misdiagnosed a pilot or throwout bearing sound as LSPI/detonation. Had played with timing a bit, pops/raspy sound of engine just got worse. Got timing reset. - Had failed emissions a few times. First time went in as is, failed. Second time, replaced cat, still failed, running rich as hell. Third time replaced o2 sensor, passed. Car still smells gassy though. - Timing belt and valve cover gasket also replaced.  - Gas mileage is... low. about 350-400K per tank.  Any idea if I'm having any serious issues here or does this all sound like normal old NA RB stuff and I'm fine to drive it with the pops/slightly raspy engine? If it'll help, I can get drop a video of the sound of the engine.
