Hi

Need to size a turbo and injectors for my RB25 R33

i want to use it for drifting so it should be responsive

car already has :

- Hybrid FMI

- Full 3" zorst

- splitfire coils

- pod and CAI

- tomei fuel pump

- nismo FPR

- HKS EVC5 boost controller

have just brought a Power FC and am going to get this fitted along with Z32, new turbo and injectors.

would like to keep standard turbo manifold and use the 3" dump pipe already fitted

would like about 350hp @ wheels or more

have budgeted about $1000 for injectors and $1000 secondhand to $2000 new for the turbo

so my questions are:

- What turbo

- what injectors

- also can i keep the cold start function with a Power FC

if you want to keep the dump you have with the standard turbo then your best bet is a highflow, which should also be sufficient for your 350hp goal.

injectors, different people have different opinions but i'm using nismo 555s and they're great

and yes power fc's have cold start functions

i thought alot of aftermarket turbo fit in place of the standard one without changing anything

for $1800 we can make you a Garrett GT3071R BB CHRA in a .63 Bolton housing in .60 A/R Comp with 14psi internal gated actuator. that would be pretty responsive for your power goal with good torque.

GCG highflow, Nismo 740cc injectors to give you breathing room for future upgrades(same price as the 555cc), 480cc SR20 injectors are the budget option.

a GT3071 or 76 kit is ~3k

Sounds like a good option, but have heard many times of the potential boost control issues with these combos, do your setups have this issue?

some of the hks ones do but they cost a small fortune

all the others i can think of are a highflow of some sort

if you want 350hp u may run into boost control issues as said above, when running the stock manifold, your going to have decide as to how serious you want to be about your up grade, do you either get the bolt on and run into a wall when ur after more, or spend the extra couple of grand and go external gate, 6boost manifold, and a decent garret turbo. why not get some cams and timing gears as well.....etc

its a pretty hard choice and decent investment what ever you decide on think about what your going to do with the car spend the extra now and save the head ache latter

Nope. Depends on how your engineer the internal wastegate port and size of the wastegating flap. We've done quite a few. No problem with boost creeping at all.

am not gonna have the extra money external gate and cams

I see heaps of people with 350rwhp using the standard manifold and think i should be able to do it

hks2835...shits on standard boost response...no response...full boost and 250rkw at 19psi at 3200rpm...drift that bitch!

how does this turbo compare to the Garrett GT3071R BB mentioned by hypergear

i also believe a gt30 is the way to go.

even better if you spend an extra 1k for a rb30....youll make the turbo kick in earlier, with less boost and more power.

hopefully your not running a rb20....

engine is an RB25 and don't think ill be putting in an RB30

just looking for a new turbo

Any 450hp core (or close enough will do what you want, each with its pro's and con's.

So GT3071, HKS GT-RS, HKS 2835ProS, GCG hiflow or Hypergear's recommendation.

You seem to want a low cost direct bolt on option so something from Hypergear or GCG will meet the target and for the lowest cost.

550cc injectors will do the job.

i'd go a second hand HKS GTRS if i were looking for something that bolts up....

slightly more responsive than a highflow and very bolt on..... 2835 is a better turbo for a 25 but more $$$ and needs a custom dump.

hks2835...shits on standard boost response...no response...full boost and 250rkw at 19psi at 3200rpm...drift that bitch!

is that all you ended up with? i thought you sorted all that out

mine makes 285 @ 19 psi

thanks for everyones answers

think im gonna go the Garrett GT3071R BB recommended by hypergear along with sard injectors

can i keep the cold start function ?

You'll need additional collars for the sard injectors whereas Nismo don't for similar price new.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
