unsure on the specifics of the fuel pump, but i know its a walbro fuel pump. i'll try find out more info when i ring previous owner later on today.

where is "The speed lab" located as im in norther adelaide. but will travel if its worth it.

bloody hell all this turbo jap car business is confusing.

ive got a hypergear rebuild in my car, and i cant fault it.

alternatively, japanese import spares have a 2530 to suit an rb for under $1000.

they also have nismo 550's for $240 each if you cant be f**ked waiting. but its easy to find injectors for much cheaper.

jeff (speed lab) tends to work out of turbotune on the other side of town. and actually, this turbo jap car stuff is pretty straight forward. dont have to pull half your engine (and half your car) apart to change a cam. ;)

if its a "500HP" pump, it will be fine.

Last I heard Jeff was working out of a place at Pooraka.

Takes just under 2 weeks from the time I recieve money, but I can supply 555cc injectors for an rb20 for under $400 (set of 6)

Am expecting injectors for Dark.Sky and MattyR31 this week and injectors for DSTROY next week.

-D

on the topic of injectors, i noted a certain united in the pt adelaide area advertising E85? if its gonna hit hard this time i may consider changing over.

+1 If it becomes more widely availible I might look into it.

fair enough.

bah, stupid rb's and their crappy ceramic turbines. get a highflow, then smash 16 psi. easy. :(

My old 32 ran 16psi day in day out on an R33 turbo and didn't miss a beat, and you saw how harshly that was treated Dave :wave:

lol. that thing was flogged hard. but it was also 2 steps away from being a missile car. fairly sure this guy wants his to stay in one piece! :wave:

That may be so, but my main point was the R33 turbos can handle a bit of abuse :P

If it was my car I'd go front mount, decent exhaust (turbo back 3inch with no cat), fuel pump and run boost around 14psi. Turbo should handle it, injectors might be pushed but everything should hold together and make near enough to 200 @ the wheels and would still be responsive. Would be good fun for a bit till you get used to it and want more :(

R33 turbos on a RB20 arent put under the same heat and load hence why you can boost it to 16psi

i ran my RB25det to 14psi for about a year before she went bang and didn't properly go bang just made a little noise i recon better oil may have not done that too AFR's wont stop your ceramic wheel going pop

possibly best route

Garret 3076

Injectors 555 if you not going to entertain the idea of E85 or else 700+

PowerFc if your real keen or else speak to Shaun @ boostworx for a VG30dett ECU conversion

get rid of the walbo and get a bosch

and

Z32 AFM

tune to 18psi and let the fun begin can go higher if detonation is low tunner will know how much you can go

+1 this dude knows his stuff

-D

Garret 3076 - Got

Injectors 555 if you not going to entertain the idea of E85 or else 700+ - Got Nismo 740cc

PowerFc if your real keen or else speak to Shaun @ boostworx for a VG30dett ECU conversion - Using a Haltech

get rid of the walbo and get a bosch - Using a Bosch 040

and

Z32 AFM - Dont have as I am using MAP sensor

That is a very good combo, i am running 15psi and making 265rwkw. If you are wanting to retain more of your response i would suggest a hiflow or the 0.6 a/r for the GT3076 turbo. I am running a 0.82 a/r, a little bit laggy, but boost hits nice and hard :P.

Maybe also replace coilpacks with either Yellowjacket/Splitfire/Superspark, depends on what condition your stock ones are in.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • 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?
