New Project Drift R324door Rb25det, What Turbo? So Many Options!

[DriftSquad]

Hey guys im building a new R324door project car, and im looking for the right turbo to suit my needs! Its got an RB25DET S1 Motor. Came like that when i brought no other mods.

im not looking for Huge power as its a drift car. so not looking for a lag power monster. so mid-range turbo with response would be ideal.

it would be good to hear what you other drifters are useing and your supported mods.

External gate or internal gated turbos.

Iv checked the RB25 Thread, the GT30 seems like the popular one but there are so many types!

The cars current modds,

Rb25det

Racing logic Coilovers Track ver

Front and Rear Strut Bracing

JJR coil packs

Bosh 040 fuel pump

intercooler

boost controller, 12psi

quickshift

all oil temp water presure gagues ect

WTB? Turbo, manifold, ext Gate, computer,

anyways let me know your drift set up! to help me build mine! Heres some pics to show you what were workin with here!

Cheers

GT3071 or hypergear tr43, power fc.

if you havent already bought those coil-overs try some thing esle as they are pretty average.

[DriftSquad]

Yes i agree with u, the coil-overs are very average i brought there old model back in 2004, and they were of higher quality then the new ones! but they will have to do for now!..

GT3071? what specs?? and will this make boost relatively early? when are you making full boost?

i havnt hurd of the hypergear Tr43?? anyone useing it?

any drifters out there with some dyno results of there drift machine?

Cheers!

wouldnt you rather the 6 blade 3076 over the 3071? from what ive been seeing it should be superior in spool and power?

im keen to hear experienced opinions, ive been reading for weeks on end and still havent formed a solid opinion.

Why don't you just put it into the search function?

There are several 10+ page threads on the turbos.

If you are actually serious about it all - then go and read them, then you probably don't even need this thread

The fact you are a drifter makes about zero difference to any of the other 100 threads we have now on GT30XX turbo's.

hey iv read all the forums fact is most people dont mind the lag for power.. i dont need the huge power.. and yes i know how to search and didnt find what im looking for so this is plan B.

[R31Nismoid]

What do you mean you didnt find what you wanted?

You don't actually state what you want.

280-320rwkw seems to be GT3076

250-280rwkw seems to be GT3071

Thats in the Garretts.

There are the cheaper bush bearing items from Hypergear - you'll have to read the 10+ page thread on those though, im not 100% what is what.

Then you have GCG hi-flows, 260rwkw using the R34 GT-t turbo/OP6 rear housing.

So decide what you want, work it out from what is above, and go search. Trust me when i say the info is here.

[DriftSquad]

Trust me When i say i havnt found what im looking for! or i wouldnt have posted anything.. iv been on SAU allll Day!

When i built my last car, i didnt ask questions. and ended up with something i didnt want because some people over rate there turbos? y i dont know..

I didnt State what i want because im um sure? so im asking people who might have been looking for the same thing and found it?

Iv been looking at (thanks to GTScott GT3071,) Cheers for the advise. looks alright so far but still havnt seen a dyno print out with RPM range. (still looking)

GT3071

GT3540? some people say there better then the GT30's..

TD06 20G: from what i have read seems alright but where to find one?

T04E?? few people make these including cheap chinese ones, any one useing this?

GT28RS?

i would prefer a top mount turbo set up?

if i got 250RWKW id be overly happy! Response is what i want.

R31Nismoid - You have a say in most Topics on SAU, Maybe you can help me narrow my options down? from what u know and if you were in my position what would you go for?

Cheers

R34 OP6 hiflow

ull get the 250 and it will be about as responsive as you can get. problem solved lol

You still ain't said a thing about what you want power/budget wise in 3 posts now...

ok so finally we are getting somewhere.

250rwkw with response, that is simple.

GCG hi-flow. You don't even need a R34 turbo for that.

It is low mount, it is internal gate.

So none of the "show" you drifters seem to like, but it's certainly the bet tool for what you want.

Or you can settle for 230-240rwkw and get a HKS 2535, now THAT would be even more-so responsive. Super snappy

[r33cruiser]

my setup; Gt3582 with .63 rear +supporting mods+ pfc.

Boost at 3200, full boost at 4500ish.

I like it, even works well on tight 2nd gear corners.

Response is important but not crucial, afterall it IS a drift car your after and u dont drift at 2900rpm. Im happy with the lag, considering I usually use 5000+rpms.

If your still in the ''i need response uleh i drift at 30kms in 5th gear, so i need BOOOST'' mindset, consider this.

A mate is also putting on a gt3582 on his SR20 drift car.. a bit of perspective for u

250 rwkw from RB25 = 2nd hand hks GTRS imho.

With that being said! would the GT3071R Spool up quicker then the GT3582? iv read alot of people say the GT35's are better?

[Kaido_RR]

HKS GT2835 PROS Or HKS 3037S

the 1st is internal gate make good power and responds everywhere. 2nd is ext gate depending on which rear housing you get it is responds and makes good power (400 figures)

2835 pros full boost around 3000rpm (18psi), however as mention above 99% of the time when your on the track you are in your power band so lag isn't a issue.

pick your power range, and then your price range.

my setup in my r33 (and i use it for drift is)

hks gt2835 pros (will be replace with a hks 3037s in feb)

pfc, z32, nismo 600cc injectors, splitfire coilpacks, gtr plenum, greddt intercooler, blitz id-3 ebc, hks exhaust etc etc

Also you don't need that much power to drift, get yourself an LSD before you start chasing power

[DriftSquad]

Also you don't need that much power to drift, get yourself an LSD before you start chasing power

i have a nice 2way LSD... i just forgot to add it! Also 3" straight thou pipe turbo back...

the car drift's well ATM just not holding the big 3rd gear corners! iv really gotta through her around. bogs out hard.

what kind of power did you make on your set up? sounds super responsive!

sounds like something i might like... also a little laggyer then that wouldnt bother me. full boost by 3800 - 4grand would be great!

Cheers for the input any one eles?

any GT3071r drivers out there?

any one used a turbonetics t04e turbo?

[R31Nismoid]

Of course it would!

Pairing a 700hp compressor with a rear that will only flow ~500hp is silly anyway.

3071 for 250rwkw is a very good choice - as are a few othre turbos (HKS items) mentioned in this thread.

Fact of the matter is a 700hp compressor for ~400hp is pointless.

[DriftSquad]

I totally agree with u R31Nismoid its very pointless!

after this topic looks like im steering towards the GT3071R or HKS GT28RS

anyone out there with a GT3071R on Rb25 with some Dyno print outs?

any one eles out there feel free to add what u rekon should go in this?

Thanks for your help guys!

[Simon-S14]

the OP should search my post history and suss out my results on my car. i too had/have a r32 4 door drift car with rb25det. I was making 280 rwkw with a 3071R with .73 rear housing still lowmount and IW. I also ran cams and saw peak power at 6900 rpm at 16 psi. There was stacks of midrange and had no issues frying the tyres.

[bj0rn]

hey nismoid, just out of interest, do you know how much faster would a 3071 spool compared to a 3076 ?
