Is any one running a td05 16g on there rb20?

Looking at maybe getting one for my 20 for response I'm thinking it would come on around 3500 rpm mark?

Want to push around 220kw mark for a drift car !

Back in around 2006 my flatmate put an EVO3 TD05-16G onto his RB20DET on the stock manifold with an external wastegate plumbed up - made 20psi by around 3800rpm if I remember rightly, was awesome fun to drive though never got a final power figure for it unfortunately.

Here's the graph with your 17.5psi run Artz.

We should arrange a time to drive each other's cars (if you don't mind)... I struggled with the choice between T67 and TD06-20G for ages, so it would be good to drive a well set up version of each back to back.

Wow Except for that bit where you hit full boost , im still a bit on top.. until. 6k when im out..

Be a funny race , as long we get traction down the same you should power ahead when I change gear.

I would catchup when you change gear but I'd think you would stay well ahead..

I wasn't running out of legs on the straight at PI really, it was still pulling hard in 5th when I hit the braking zone..

We tried 20psi but it didn't make anymore power, intake temps starting going up. Might be different with a better intercooler. Trent said he was quite conservative with the timing though. Engine is also high on K's. Simon has shown the T67 will keep going with more boost, but this is the best we could safely get out of my setup. I'm not complaining though!

Yer I'm pretty keen on getting a kendo one maybe even go ex gate on STD manifold or just get a internal gate one just want a response turbo for drifting

if u do go internal gate, get a T25 based one (the SR20 type) as the T3 ones SUCK. You will then need to get a T3-T2 adapter and make a dump to suit.

that being said, i dont think it would end up that much more expensive to just go external gate TD05H 18G T3 8cm.

HOWEVER, if talking making that sort of power your probably BEST off just getting your stock turbo rebuilt by hypergear. it will work out cheaper and the chances are you will get better results as you can tell him exactly what you are after, no hidden surprises. you say i want full boost by X and this much power, he will tell you what he can make to meet your targets or how close you can get to your targets with which turbo.

An update to my pretty minor but annoying saga regarding a missing oil line and complete lack of communication from Eiji - after some negative feedback he finally got in contact and we have finally resolved things (and I removed the negative feedback). I now have the missing oil line and things are all good :)

I don't think so, his last message indicated he was keen to do business again, so I think all is good.

I did notice all those feedback messages on eBay though where he states, straightaway, any issue (even if he is apparently to blame), BLOCKED! No soup for you haha. That's why I was worried about things initially.

Oh well, all sorted now.

Did he block you afterwards Justinn?

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
