in short, generally speaking you will fall just short (190 odd RWKW) from previous experience with a 25 turbo on a RB20, that is if you are using the stock 32 computer with no remap on a healthy RB20 etc. If it is remapped you should pull just a tad over the 200-210 mark but there are so many varibles so i cant give u an exact estimation.

High flowing the 25 turbo will pull the power you want, however you will also get reduced throttle response (read LAG) from this higher flowing turbo.

short answer is yes.

long answer is not if you want it to last a while.

people have run the RB25 turbo on an RB20 with remap and almost 14psi to get around the 190rwkw mark.

that sort of boost and more is just asking for eventual trouble.

that stock RB25 turbo can be hiflowed for about $2K (ball bearing centre) and be able to flow enough air to produce around 240rwkw... but you will be left with more lag up to around 4000rpm where things start to come alive.

okay so 4000 rpm is there any way of dropping those numbers to a healthy 3000rpm???

the reason this is being done is because the motor is in a e30 and there is about 20mm from turbo to the chassis rail GAY!!!

and from that info u have been told there isn't much help but you may be able to help with this???

i want 200kw atw and will basically do anything to get it just check out the myspace for pics www.myspace.com/iamjarryd

plz help me :rofl:

^^^ link ems (engine management system) is an aftermarket ecu. and i think he is talking about an R33.

just get a R33 stock turbo and put it on, run 13-14psi through it (wont be a problem on an RB20), get the car tuned and see what power output you get. if your worried about turbo clearance issues with the R33 turbo, dont. there is almost no external physical size differance in the two turbos (R32 and R33) its the internals of the R33 turbo that are bigger.

if you still dont get the power your after then get the turbo hiflowed. but i dont think you will see much change from 3500 to 4000rpm for full boost, even on a stock R33 turbo, which isn't that bad at all really.

should have gone SR20 dude..

with a stock S15 turbo bolted to it with usual mods it would have pulled 200rwkw and be less laggy than the RB20 with stock turbo

no 2 ways about it.

rb25 turbo "may" get you there depending on dyno.

a hiflow definitely will... but will increase lag.

yeah maybe but i also should have looked at dropping a supra enging in there to i know they fit but it was the money issue at the time

      You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.

      R32 gtr transmission strength, billet plate

      By cosline · Posted

      Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik

      Spotted on the street....

      By Rezz · Posted

      Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
