Hey guys,

I've just recently had a R32 GT skyline (RB20det). And I have been taking up drifting. Ive found that that stock turbo aint enough go. So I've been trying to look for a decent turbo with enough go. Im looking for a turbo bigger then the origanal one, but not too crazy. I'm looking at the price range of about $2500 tops. Not looking for a FULLY HETIC SUPER FAST turbo. Just something to nice and bit bigger then origanal. Would also like to know where to get it from. I live in QLD/Brisbane.

Cheers, Nick.

have you thought about other associated expenses?

fuel system, intercooler, exhaust, engine management?

much besides, here is a massive topic

all about turbo upgrades on rb20s. you can learn a lot about the power figures, and other mods you might require.

First of all Nick congrats!

Anyone can turn the wheel and stab the throttle. Doing controlled opposite lock 360's around a cone is harder than people think.

And you really seem to get the hang of it in the end.

:D And for god sake DO NOT go out and do it on the street, some people think just because they have done one skid pan day they think they are D1 drivers.

Keep it up!

Thanks man.

Yeah, I'm only 15, so i wont be doing it on the streets. Hense being on the track, its supposed to stop me from doing it on the streets. Which is what it will do. Thanks for the support.

    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
