I was just wondering if applying a Procharger Supercharger to a 3.0L RB25/30DE with the Jatco 4 Speed would be worth it? Would it create a torque monster or would it all just fail. This is just an alternative idea to the usual high mount turbo upgrade people do. I have seen supercharged SR's and 1 Twincharged RB however I cant find just a supercharged RB.

Yeah x2, Superchargers are old basic technology - they have a perception of better torque down low but equal flowing supercharger vs. turbo, turbo wins out every time imho.

They're kind of entertaining to drive though haha

those crazy kiwi's...

im pretty sure that thing is just supercharged

if you had a supercharger laying around your garage it could be an interesting build,

but would probably need more R&D and money put into it to get it all working properly

its cheaper and easier to go with tried and tested turbos

but if you want something different with some sweet supercharger whine go for it

    • 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.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • 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
