nengun has them for the HKS GTRS for:11004-AN008To Suit ECR33 RB25DET S1 & S2 93/9-98/5AU $ 2,467.65

Anyone know of anyone who could beat that price?

Thats the price excluding delivery. Because of the bad exchange rate its going to be 2760 delivered. When last month it was 2400 delivered. You have to sign up to nengun to get postage costs.

PM Slide, i think he can do the HKS GTRS kit a bit cheaper.

Honestly don't worry about "if the turbo fails its going to blow the engine" because it isn't!

It is very, very rare for parts of the exhaust wheel to go upwards into the exhaust manifold and into a valve. Most of the time the exhaust wheel and shaft end up in your cat. If your unlucky enough the compressor wheel will let go and end up in an intercooler. For some of those parts to get through into your engine is rare so honestly if you don't actually want an upgrade because you want more power, only due to you being worried, then just leave the turbo as it is.

Turbo upgrades blow $5000+ easily out of your wallet when you include:

turbo $1000-$2500

ecu $1000-$1500

Z32 AFM $200 (if not MAP sensored)

fuel pump $200-$300

injectors $600

clutch $500-$1000

splitfire coilpacks $450

tune $400-$600

intercooler/exhaust/silcone/etc etc

Labour if you aren't doing anything yourself... $1000-$1500

It all adds up man. Now whats better, leaving the car as it is, or spending that much money just to make sure the turbo doesn't let go.... Your call.

Very true indeed... Only upgrade it if you really need or want the extra power. If its just an excuse for your mrs then just keep her away from this thread :ninja:

for a cheaper option go a gcg highflow and keep total output to 230rwkw and you should get away with stock injectors, afm and fuel pump

Thanks for all the replys, very much appreicated!

I always had the intention of doing injectors, fuel pump and airflow meter anyway.

Im really interested in the HKS GT-RS bolt on kit, initially was turned off by the Just Jap Price of $3800, but when i realised nungun and slide where doing them for a grand cheaper, it has sparked my interest!

New Question for the day. Do the 300zx T/T stock injectors (430cc/min) fit the rb25det?

or is it the same story as the gtr injectors top v's side feed?

2nd Question for the day. Would the Greddy Emanage Blue be a satisfactory piggyback ECU to run my desired tune/setup outline in first post?

Cheers.

Jason

The e manage can handle those power levels quite well afaik...

Greddy run them on plenty of their highly modifyed demo cars

also make sure you look at the hks 2835 pro s kit. Its a thousand schmux more but it makes an easy 260 to 280rwkw depending on supporting mods and tune.

I'm running mine in conjunction with an ex cam gear and have 265rwkw but spooling up as early as the gtrs. It also makes 245 on a lazy 1 bar with full boost by around 3500 and without having to run at its limits

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
