I just bought a freah import red top rb20det after killing my silvertop and i have two turbo's in my shed vg30 and sr1 rb25 both have minimal shaft play and are ready to bolt on, so what should i put on? The motor is pretty much stock apart from the hks pod, hybrid intercooler and 3inch zurst. The future mods will be remap ecu, hks head gasket,arp head bolts and a hks boost controler.

Any help to save me a day's work would be much appreciated :P

Cheers

Dave

RB25 FMFW. :D

The RB25 turbo runs the larger compressor.

The VG30 runs the rb20 compressor but with the larger r34 GTT turbine and usual r33/r34 rb25 compressor housing.

So.... If you can.. Drop the VG30 turbine housing on the RB25 turbo and you have the a R34 GTT turbo which makes the most power out of all.

did the same thing with my car when i suspeceted the turbo blew up, but found out later it wasnt the turbo, but if i was to do it again, and a little less cheaply! i would do the r33gtst turbo, as the vg30 is rather ;larger and laggy as a mofo! getting technical with the 30 housing on the 25 turbs is beyond be , but i would go the r33 gtst for sure if your chasing responsive, or big numbers go the vg30

i just put a vg30 on my r31... i recommend it completely sure the there's a tiny bit of lag(starts to boost at like 3500rpm)... but wen it does boost up its a hell of alot of fun... for normal drive and fuel economy lag is good...

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By MBS206 · Posted

      When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By Rezz · Posted

      Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.

      If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
