Hi all,

I'm not starting to focus on increasing my R33's performance and have decided to get a new Turbo kit for my R33. I am not too familiar with everything that's required so am after a 100% bolt on kit that I can purchase, give to my mechanic and then know for sure that it will be easily installed...please share your experiences...I am just after something that can hold around 20-30 PSI.

Thanks. Would something like this be good?

Thanks,

SM

A knockoff of a shitty chinese turbo (KKR Style lol), I'm sure it will hold 2-3 psi reliably ('m im assuming the 0's you put on there was a mistake).. I wouldn't run even run 20psi through it unless you want your mechanic to replace the ebay special every few months. Go with a Garrett turbo or a jap turbo or if you insist on ebay specials, go with a genuine KKR (not that I'm recommending it at all) or just don't bother.

The KKR's have been done to death, stop wasting our fricken time seriously

forget ebay

forget boost

find out how much you want to spend

find out how much power you want

then speak to a performance shop or do some reading

^ And that pretty much sum's up what i was going to post before locking this...

I mean the link in the first post isn't even for a "kit", when that is what you want...

Please search.

Putting "KKR" in will return pages upon pages of info, same goes for anything else.

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn
