Hi i need a new turbo asap and dont really have time to read through all these pages but basically does any of the TD06 turbos bolt to the stock R33 dump pipe? I noticed on Kandos ebaystore they had one that does seem to, it says it uses a stage 3 turbine does anyone have that turbo or know anything about it? I'm really only wanting 250ish rwkw with good responce and was considering a hypergear hi flow as i have a op6 housing sitting around but i just discovered this thread so am now confused which way to go, please help.

The kando highflow is not tried and tested yet, but is the only one in their range which will bolt up.

Your best bet is to send your shagged turbo to hypergear and get someone that many people have bought and know its good.


Bear in mind you cant just slap the thing on and wham get 250kw. You will need an ecu and the rest of the supporting mods.

Correct. A TD06SL2 20G is the weapon of choice if you want to go that way. It has been done and 260 was easily hit on 98 by 2 members... 300 when running E85 with supporting mods.


Bear in mind that requires an external wastegate also, which will need to be plumbed off either the exhaust manifold or exhaust housing. Despite the turbo being $700 odd you should budget up to $2,000.

In light of the above 250kw is arguably better attained from a <$1,000 hypergear 2IU 'standard highflow'. Have a read of the HG thread and you will find user reviews from people who have put them on near stock cars to people who are using them in track cars, good reliable option which will bolt straight back onto the car without further modification (other than EFI type supporting mods as mentioned prior).

Please read the many threads the forum has, you will be able to form your own opinion on where you want to go from there.

I second this....

Yes, it is a hybrid TD06SL2 with his billet 71 and 74mm wheels.

Again you still need to budget at least 2k to have it on the motor, and the above 300 supporting mods are arguably a lot more difficult than the those for 250 (need to move to E85, external gate, so on and so forth).

I know people who have done ~300kw @ hubs from stock EVO 9 turbos as well, as well as EVO3 16Gs with the bigger comp and turbine housings. We are going the non-EVO fit EVO3 spec 16G with 8cm housing so I'm picking we'll be able to make some decent power. The car only has a 2.5bar sensor so we can't get too carried away with boost, but I am sure we'll still get OK results :)

tractor SR's are a long way from 4g63's though.

Absolutely, we're not expecting magic. The old PE1420 delivered all that was needed of it - so as long as the 16G at least matches it's flow (no doubt it won't match it's response) it will be considered a success. Turbo is ordered, hoping it will be here next week :)

Don't break my heart :(

WOO HOO!!

LOL well lining them up might be possible soon, the new bearing carrier for my clutch finally arrived so im getting BUSY.

Regarding cancelling out we're both guilty so don't start :rolleyes:

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
