We actually build a brand new turbo core with bigger wheels, then machine your stock housings to suit it. We only use steel turbine wheels. So are you actually getting back a brand new turbo inside your factory housings.

yup i understand that but is it possible to just put a standard size steel wheel in there, ie no machining etc?

Yummy.... $1300 basically... what kind of response and power am i looking at with this rb25 highflow ?

I would say around 280rwkws with high pressure actuator. full boost by 4200RPM. be just like this one here:

(Dynosheet below is running a normal 1KG actuator)

and No we can not get standard size wheels in steel.

obviously with supporting mods.

what psi was he running?

With the high pressure actuator will i be seeing better results ? than that of the 1kg one ?

small edit : Even tho i hand you a turbo with shaft play and all that jazz it gets fixed anyway correct? so i can go buy any turbo in hindsight and still get a brand new one back ..?

With the high pressure actautor you will be seen a lot more steady sort of line with out the drop. and will be making more top end.

Once high flowed you basically get a brand new turbo back in your stock housings so it doesn't matter if your current turbo is blown or with heaps of shaft play.

The old and blown CHRA in your stock turbo goes into the bin unless you want it back.

As someone from South Australia where the inspectors will basically look for any external changes from the factory turbo to defect you - is it possible that the external of a Hypergear highflowed RB25 (R34) turbo will look identical to the factory turbo? Are there any lines that require changing? Is it possible to retain factory lines, or is it a requirement to go to something else?

I'm guessing changing the wastegate actuator would be an obvious visible difference too - so despite performance benefits, it would be better to use an RB20 (10psi) one or keep the factory R34 (5psi) one to avoid Transport SA issues?

Well visually the high flowed turbo appears to be same as the stock turbo. You can use your stock actuator. Or we can modify your stock actuators actuation bracket to suit a high pressure actuator.

Few new projects and updates for 2010:

First of all few of you already know We've started developing VARA project in Mid dec 09. Which allows us to change your turbine A/R to what ever we need it to be. Means we can now high flow your stock R33 (yes your stock 2IU turbine housing not OP6) turbos to produce 270rwkws if need to. So we are no longer boxed by the flow limit with some smaller turbine housings.

2ndly as we all aware that smaller turbine housings gives us better response but not good up top. with our Variable Air Ratio (VARA A: actuator controlled) turbine housings. We can start off with a .42 A/R till 7psi and have it increased to 0.82 on 20psi refer to boost increase. Means you can have 300rwkws with stock alike response. This response is also adjustable with a bleed valve. This method has been used on few turbocharged Porches, we will be intergrating this into Nissans.

3rdly We will be building .60 compressor housings with stock size inlets and out lets. So people are no longer required to get any "Kits" as it bolton to your stock every thing.

I will be posting photos once I get back on the 15th of Jan.

Happy new year every one.

Hi Stao,

Can the VARA turbo housings be put onto one of your already highflowed R33 G2 turbos to reach the 270kw mark or do you have to redo the whole turbo.

How much would this be?

We can modify your R33 turbine housing for lot better flow which class under the PU highflow options. So basically yes we have to modify every thing on it.

The VARA is still under development at this stage. will be ready for public soon.

Excellent result Lowrb. Please post dynosheet when possible. Thanks

And will the response still be the same but with more top end?

Nah...you'll have more lag as per a bigger turbine wheel to create more power. More power usually equals more lag when it comes to turbo upgrades :rofl2:

Until Stao gets this VARA thing happening for us :domokun:

that's what I meant Birds, same response with the VARA????

Well that's the idea behind it anyway. I doubt it'll be exactly the same as stock but it should be much better than a straightforward high flow without sacrificing top end :D

hey stao just wondering say if i give u a HKS2535 turbo can u like put bigger wheels on it and like make the housings flow more if so how much? and what would the response and hp be like?

Cheers

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
