Hi all.

Just wondering, what would give greater acceleration off the line on a 6MT or 5AT (Haven't decided which one to get yet) 2004 350gt, a supercharger kit or a twin turbo kit? How much cheddar do you think it will set me back installed? Also, what would you guess the 0-100 times will be after these mods??

thanks :P

You will have more trouble getting out of the hole with a TT than a supercharger, if you can get the power down (maybe fit some massively wide tyres) then 0-100 for TT should theoretically be faster than a supercharger, because your torque-band will be much wider. Also TT > SC in 0-400. As for cost, you can do an off-the-shelf SC for < $7K if you're handy with a spanner and have a free weekend. TT you'll be looking at maybe $12-$15K and DIY will be pretty damn hard (it'll probably take you a full day and half just the change the exhaust manifolds).

thanks kam.

one other thing where bouts can i get all this work done?? i don't know of anywhere where i can buy, for example, the greddy TT kit. and then i need to find someone who's confident in being able to install it..

It won't be a DIY job.. i just don't have the experience to feel comfortable a complex mod like this

You'll need to verify RHD fitment of the TT kits you look at, I'm pretty sure the GReddy is LHD ONLY. From memory not a lot of people make RHD kits anymore...You can get HKS Single turbo, APS (if they still make them), GTM and maybe power enterprises. I think it has to do with manifold design clearing the steering hardware.

A lot of VQ FI tuning comes out of the states these days, contact Adam at Z1 Auto ( www.z1auto.com ), he's pretty good and may be able to find a solution for you. Otherwise Sam @ GTM ( http://www.gtmotorsports.com/ ) or you can order the HKS kit from Nengun.

For fitment there should be a number of reputable turbo shops in your state...if you're in Vic RE Customs, Chasers, Status Tuning just to name a few (most of my work is done at RE customs).

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something?

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation. It just states that I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!?

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.
