I have found a way around the injector / afm maxing out problem so its time for a turbo upgrade.

The Budget: $3000 + fitting bits and pieces ( I will fit myself )

[i:7acb06bd56][u:7acb06bd56]The options so far:[/u:7acb06bd56][/i:7acb06bd56]

HKS GT2835 - 52Trim with .68 a/r (400hp)

What else do you guys reccomed, I need to know th eentire cost so don't tell me X turbo for $2700 only to discover it is external gated.

This is a serious enquiry and will happen later this year.

cam I would hiflow your vg30 turbo and put an external gate on it. you can get a 60-1 front wheel and a bigger exhaust wheel and it will rock the external gate will give you more control and you wont need a custom manifold.

or go td0 6 20 g they are a great combo but a biggish vg 30 is really good if you want more power just go a t4 with a roller bearing center.

cheers

the 2835's are laggy.

Yes it is possible, there are many ways to do itb ut if you are going to the expense of a turbo and ex/gate then you probably have the money for a new manifold ($1000) unless of course you pick one up super cheap.

JMS did this on theier Onevia and simply had a block welded onto the flange on the stock manifold with the wastegate coming up off this and the turbo bolted on.

    • When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?
    • Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
    • yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
