i know a guy who buys KKR turbo's directly from factory in china and he says they are close to half the cost of what otomo charge for them here in australia.

so $200 cheaper will still mean they can make a profit on the turbo. I wouldnt worry about it

Yep looks like a copy to me.

Genuine: http://www.driftgarage.com.au/images/KKR330_sm.gif

Yours: http://www.pcpa.com.au/index.php?main_page...mage&pID=10

ID plate doesn't have any black KKR writing and the actuator is slightly different.

would anyone run this though ? even if its a copy . though it looks like the pcpa turbo has a benefit due to fact its water cooled as well .. but dunno - G

they all come out of the same factory in china anyway. just send it somewhere in AUS to get re-balanced and see how it goes.

not only shitty turbos, but fakes of a shitty turbo????

Yeah why copy KKR when you could copy HKS? GuiltToys explanation passes the common sense test. Its probably like the D2 G4 brake stuff. Manufacturing company makes it, sales/wholesaling companies badge it and sell it.

Jesus Christ man !

Sell the RB30 due to financial crisis!

That's simply not an option mate.

If you're even close to the average ball park asshole, sell your body or soul first man..

genuine can only be bought from otomoto and their official kkr distributors.

ask for a refund dude

recieved an email back today . in regards to this turbo. refund is not an option . been doing some more research and this kkr 560 style turbo and the company that makes them is new power an offshoot company of kkr. still waiting on the reply from Pcpa into this matter heres there info if anyone wants a geeze into the dilemma

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
