a mate has got a new t04e for sale what kw would u see with that

Don't even bother wasting your time with such an old school turbo.

As said by others, depending on what power you exactly want you have a few choices for the max "safe" power out of a stock internal RB25. IMO opinion there are three great commonly available turbo's to choose from for the sort of thing you seem to want. GTRS, 2835, 3037 Obviously there are others like APEXI, TRUST etc but are a bit hard to find through a shop or second hand. But anything equivalent to these is what you want.

Anything smaller and your not really "pushing" the motor for max power and anything bigger is starting to get a bit laggy for power levels that may hurt the motor. All a bit of a gamble really :)

what would be best one out of the 3

price and power

just price

just power

a gt2871r is the turbo that hks use to make the GT-RS

same same, but hks modify the housing for better spool, T3 flange'ness and bolt-on oil + water lines

a gt2871r is the turbo that hks use to make the GT-RS

same same, but hks modify the housing for better spool, T3 flange'ness and bolt-on oil + water lines

so its only oil cooled

what would a good second hand gt2871r be worth

aslo the hsk gt-rs what would be a good price for each

The GT-RS is oil and water cooled.

I bought my GT-RS off of nengun a couple of years ago for $2500 delivered. Obviously the 2835 and 3037 were dearer in HKS. However the Garrett equivalents are a lot more cheaper. What do you want? The most power you can get safely? Then go the 3037. Or do you want the most responsive with still good power? Then go the GT-RS. If you want something inbetween go the 2835, simple as that ;)

See what one you can get for a good price new or second hand.

i can get a hsk 2535 with dump pipe and custom oil and water lines for 1400

or a gtrs for 1000

what is a better turbo what do u think of prices

250kw out of a 2535? I don't think so. My mates just makes 230rwkw on a RB25.

The 2535 is too small as an "upgrade turbo" on a RB25 and it aint worth the hassell to do all the installation and other mods required (fuel system etc) when your just going to want to want more power a couple of weeks later.

He said he wants the max power out of a stock motor RB25, which i take as anywhere between 260-300ish kw. The 2535 is not going to make those goals no matter what.

    • I'm selling my personal race car. 1992 BNR32 Skyline GT-R About eight years ago the engine developed the dreaded low oil pressure problem. I removed it and found the issue. However shortly after I moved half way across the country, moved my work shop, bought a house, got married, then moved my shop again to it's permanent location for the time being. in turn I do not have the time to race this car as it should be. In turn the engine I built for this car will end up in my street car and this car I hope finds a home with someone who can use it to it's full potential. The roll bar was built by Jason Noren Fabricaiton in Pomona California to SCCA and NASA Specs. The car used to compete in redline time attack and global time attack enthusiast class. It also has a fire suppression system.  The car is with me at my workshop in Kyle Texas, USA. Shipping it is no problem, I can personally deliver the car to the port of either Houston or Los Angeles. Any other port depending on where it is may require transport but we can always work that out.   The chassis itself is rust free, rear quarters and under fenders are free of any rust so it's a very solid foundation for anyone who wishes to move forward with it. As posted and at the asking price of $20,000 USD the car includes all of the following;   All OEM Body panels, front fenders, rear bumpers etc.  OEM Nissan Projector headlamps (Pictured N1 lamps were removed) OEM Nismo Side Skirts / Extensions OEM Rear Spats  Front & Rear Subframes are installed car is full roller Rear Subframe has Cusco Camber Arms, Whiteline HICAS Elimination Front Subframe has Whiteline tension rods and whiteline Sway bars w/ endlinks.  Buddy Club N1 Coilovers All chassis wiring and engine wiring is in tact. Attessa System is fully in tact and was functional before engine removal.  BCNR33 GT-R Brembo Brakes F+R with Endless MX72 Plus Pads, DBA Rotors & Stainless Steel Brake lines Billion Racing Radiator Billion Radiator Hoses Fluidyne Engine Oil Cooler Accusump System (trunk Mounted) 5 Speed Transmission w/ Transfer Case F+R Prop-shafts Rear Differential With rear Axles.  Nismo Gauge Cluster Nismo Clutch + Flywheel   Essentially what is needed to make this car running and driving again is as follows: A working Engine, an ECU, and time to put it together. The price posted is or best offer as I am willing to remove some components to accommodate price to a certain extent. If any serious buyer wants full detailed pictures, videos, or any questions I'll be happy to answer them. I believe this car is priced to move quickly considering it's a rust free and very straight chassis but always open to fair negotiation.  I can be contacted via phone or email.

    • So...to my (and my mechanics doing the swap) surprise...the oil pan from NEO engine does not fit 100% and needs to by modified like this: It is not a huge problem but in the future i want a "proper" oil pan. So question is...what different oil pan can i get to fit without any problems and modification? Thanks! 
    • Some more info I found.  These are the last entries Yoshikiyo Fujii made on his blog before he passed away in 2009: http://blog.livedoor.jp/fujii_dynamics/ And finally this is where the workshop was situated:  https://maps.app.goo.gl/HhTPtHzt3WVcBTiEA  
    • shit boxes, kids, and daily drivers are all welcome
