This turbo is wanted to put on a rb25 yup?

yeah the motor is a rb25det neo in a r34..

was looking at some cgc or hpergear turbos? are they any good? maybe even kkr..

if im loking at getting a big turbo what would you recommend upgrading aswell.. fuel pump, injectors etc.

i have a pod, exhaust, front mount, and boost controller..

if anyone can help me would be really good :(

if you have an r34 dont skimp on decent mods.

KKR and hypergear are very lazy turbos and not realy worth it. GCG high flows are a waste of time and only lead to other problems. i know this from personal experience on more than one car

a td-06 would be ideal but you would need the full kit. manifold, wastegate, ect. and its out of your current price range.

best bet would be either a HKS GT-RS (i think) which will bolt onto your standard manifold and dump pipe and still offer some thing up around 270 at the wheels.

or a garret in similar spec to the HKS but id go the HKS myself.

for 2k you could probably get a brand new garret or HKS turbo bolt on type and with the little bit of change buy yourself an apexi SAFC so you have a small amount of tuneability. you wont reach its full potential just yet but you will have the heart of the 250 goal in place. you can then add an ecu and injectors and fuel pump later to and keep stepping the power up as you get the mods.

if thats all the money you have to spend i wouldnt look at anything other than a bolt on option like the HKS or garret as once you get into after market manifolds and stuf the money soon climbs. and ebay is not your friend for turbos.

ok the HKS ones are a bit more but check this link out and talk to slide http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Bo...Ap-t202237.html

Your going to need,

Injectors

fuel pump

AFM (depending on which ecu)

Computer

clutch (if manual)

and of course the turbo.

my budget is around 2k which is why was looking at KKR could pull out some more for ecu etc but at moment manifold, gate, and turbo around 2k..

I miss understood if your budget is $2,000 for the turbo or for the power goal.

If for the power goal then forget it. I don't believe you will ever get that power with second hand parts.

If it is just for turbo I would stay away from hypergear, KKR and hi flows...

You will need cams, flywheel and need to be ringing a highflows neck for prob not even that power.

I believe if it is just for turbo you would be best going for a:

HKS GTRS kit

HKS 2835 Pro S kit

Apexi AX75F82 turbo

Garrett GT3076r

These are a few turbo's to suit that power goal all which you will most likely not be able to get under $2200 bolt on. (though i could be wrong)

In my opinion, save a little more.

Enough for HKS GTRS kit. $2500ish

clutch $1000 (installed)

fuel pump $250

safc tuned $600.

You will have around 230kw on 14-15psi and then when you get other supporting mods you will be more then happy pushing out 270+.

But as said it depends if you can only afford $2000 or if you can afford $6000.

    • The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.
    • When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.
    • Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.
    • This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
    • Either the bearing has been installed backwards OR the gearbox input shaft bearing is loosey goosey.   When in doubt, just put in a Samsonas in.
