Hey all

Im running a neo motor in my r32 and was making 280rwhp with a standard tubro! untill it leaned out, cooked a piston and snapped the turbo shaft. Currently rebuilding the motor and need to sort out my fuel issues then a turbo. With my current set up the standard turbo had good low down response and torque, not much lag and would cook third under boost. The suspension and driveline is sorted and I mainly use it for fun on the track, time trials and drifting.

Not chasing any more power just want to know what would be the best turbo for that same sorta low down response and torque, so basically similar to the neo turbo but a bit better:)

The best answer is an alloy 7 Litre Chev :cool: But since you are rebuilding the NEO i say HKS 2530Kai. Friend has one on his R33 with 256cams, and Greddy plenum (which i dont think did anything on his setup, std gear woudl be fine) and made 230rwkws and was as if not more responsive then std. Boost dropped off at high rpm but the low to midrange was amazing.

Also, with std turbo if you are spinning 3rd gear then there is more to be sorted in the suspension, alignment and tyres

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
