now here's the low down...ive been slowly collecting items for my r34gtt to bring it up to speed with everyone else here on this forum and start pumping some ponies out of it so to say.

thus far ive got: powerfc, bosch 040, z32 afm, splitfire coil packs,going to highflow my injectors to 600cc's, upgradting to a excedy hd sports tuff clutch (or can sum1 point me to a better one more suited for my application), hks oil cooler kit, hks exhaust cam gear,hks evc 4 electronic boost controller, exhaust temp gauge, boost gauge, oil temp gauge, oil pressure gauge, shorter shifter (btw i know it wont give it more kw) ;0P (ENGINE IS STANDARD INTERNALLY)

now at the moment ive only got bolted on only a large front mount intercooler and trust ti (titanium exhaust) otherwise all the parts listed above have no been installed and are just laying around waiting for me to get the turbo (ENGINE IS STANDARD INTERNALLY) and no boost has been put in other then standard factory boost it has top compression and has no faults with only 80,000k's

now im looking for no more then 290rwkw as from what ive read it wont be healthy for too long if i go further...plus its going to street driven plus the odd day on the track so im aiming for MINIMAL LAG AND MORE IMPORTANTLY RELIABILITY and POWER as i'd like to keep the car for a while and just have it as my weekender,

now from what i read and copious amounts of research i have come down to these 2 internally gated turbo options.

now its time to break the bank and buy the heart of the power my choices are between HKS 3037 GTRS KIT or the HKS 2835 PROS KIT?????????????

now can all you gurus tell me which you believe to suit my project the best.

(and no im not looking to rebuild the engine in the future to be honest, just enjoy the power and make sure its reliable)

"ALSO CAN SOMEONE RECOMMEND ME TO A SUITABLE TUNER IN SYDNEY"

BTW IM PERSONALLY SWAYING TO THE 2835 PRO S KIT...FOR THE DUMP AND LOWER BOOST TO HIGHER POWER INPUT.

THANKS A MILLION!

Bass.

Bass , not sure about the "3037 GTRS" terminology .

The GT2835 and GT3037 Pro S turbos are good bolt on turbos for RB25 DETs , probably the best turbine housing and dump pipe you'll find for this frame size in the Jap aftermarket .

You can also buy in Garrett form a GT3076R turbo with a propper GT30 integral waste gate turbine housing but you have to chase up dump pipes and water/oil plumbing yourself if you go that way .

If you really want HKS and the integral wastegate then it'll have to be the GT3037 Pro S with the larger 0.87 A/R turbine housing option for your power ask .

I think the 0.87 GT2835 Pro S would be nicer most of the time on a street car .

Also BTW you don't really need 290 RWKW to keep up here , you can't out run radio waves so the wallopers will get you if use that sort of power frequently on the street .

I think Brett was right when he said most that aren't used to it auto defacate with 240+ RWKW on the street .

My 2c cheers A .

You are confusing yourself with two different turbos, the HKS 3037 and HKS GT-RS are different turbos.

excuse me i meant hks gtrs and hks 2835 pro s

also "ryan1600" the evc 4 is great and holds boost like a dream and brings it on just right...also very easy to tune.

sweet, could you PM me a photo of your solenoid setup if its not too much trouble? and did you remove the standard restrictor from the lines?

ya know what i dont have any photos unfortunately..but i do have the pdf file for set up etc...i used the restrictors but they were just mini fuel filters...its really just to keep debree out of the stepper motor.

out of the two the HKS2835ProS is the better turbo for your aims but it sure is expensive compared to some locally sourced options that will reach your target.

ps. the exhaust cam gear will probably net you 0kw (on an RB25DET Neo). sell and spend your money on something else.

i have a 2835 pro s on an unopened 25...

the ex cam gear will actually lose you top end KW, but in exchange for better response...

i have 265rwkw with stock like turbo response

is that on a R33 RB25DET or RB25DET Neo?

with an exhaust cam gear on my R33 (at or around 4 deg retarded) there is more mid and top (on my car) and certainly worthwhile trying cam gear changes when you have some dyno time.

for this thread we are talking RB25DET Neo. cam gear changes were a step backward on the S2 Stagea. the same as many other people have found here. there is some adjustment on the backside of the factory cam gear already btw but you need to take the gear off each time to change it.

Bass Junky has a good thread devoted to it, mind you that was a while ago so it may not have been read by more recent SAU'ers.

it can, if you want to set it up that way... you can bring the whole powerband down a few hundred RPM...

a 2835 pro s will still be making power @ 8k, so there's no real loss, except for dyno queen points....

i'd rather have 260rwkw from 3k-7k than 270rwkw from 4k-7k (example only)

i get just under 4000 revs of full boost with the rev limit @ 7100

in a street car i want response, not top end power which i why i went for an ex cam gear (greddy rb26 item) and stock cams. (transient response)

this is in a S1 33 rb25, but my mate has the exact same results on a NEO.

      Cheers. Skyline is back on the menu, can’t get rid of it. It’s like a child you don’t want, or herpes

      I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.

      Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days

      It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
