hey guys

im in the process of swapping a new rb25 into my s2 r33, as i got low compression issues in current motor.

i have been doing some reading and ppl with similar setups to mine are making good power with the gt3037 turbo

i currently have a kkr430 that has shit itself (white smoke out the back - will never touch kkr again only had it for like 4 months) and im in the market for a new turbo. What other turbos would you's recommend for me? I have around $2500 max to spend, i don't wan't a crazy lag monster, but dont mind a bit of lag for a bit more top end.

my current setup is

splitfires

vipec ecu

bigger injectors (stock ones bored out to just under 500cc i believe)

walbro pump

i think thats the important things.. then fmic exhaust etc obviously.

any help greatly appreciated. i know i dont know much about this area of cars atm but am trying to learn as much as i can. thanks again.

I would say do your FMIC & Exhaust First, with a close second to the fuel pump. Then save up for the turbo, injectors and all that, have it all put in the same time to save on labor and tuning charges. Well that's what I'm doing, and my turbo choice would be a GT3076R, my aim is to get a reliable 250rwkw in my series 2 r33. Also maybe do a search, there are plenty of posts on here and other websites about turbos...just depends to how much you want to spend and what power figures you want.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      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
