Hey folks,

Im a guy from Germany whos driving a r33 gtst with an rb25det.

Well I found this Greddy Turbo kit:

http://luckstaff.cocolog-nifty.com/blog/2011/04/ecr33er34rb25de.html

Thought bout it and my opinion is that the t518z is a bit too small for my wish.

My goal is a very damn good spooling car with 1.0-1.2 bar and round bout 400HP at the fly wheel.

So a good compromise for the stock engine.

But then I came across this turbo kit:

http://www.frsport.com/Tomei-173020-M8270-ARMS-Turbo-Kit-SR20DET-S13-S14-S15_p_17087.html

I know this is a T28 Turbo, but if Greddy can do this on a RB25det. Why shouldnt work a bigger T28 Turbo on a Rb25det, too?

The Wheel Specs are big and enough for the rb25det.

My rb25det has tomei poncams and greddy intake and short pipings.

and all other supporting stuff like z32 and injectors, fuel pump, power fc and so on.

Is this turbo a good choice referring to the diagram of the m8270 on a sr22det with 260 poncams?

I do know that I have to make a t3-t28 manifold adapter and a custom downpipe.

I do know I need to rotate the housing on the core.

What do you guys think?

The point is: I can get this Tomei Turbo Kit new for less than 1200€ should be around : 1500AUD.

Adapters and the necesary stuff should be around 200€ maximum.

Please help me guys.

Best regards Georg

I'd say it would work... But why bother? I haven't heard great things about Tomei turbochargers. It's a fair bit of messing around for the gain. Yeh it's a decent price and all, but for just a little bit more you could get a good Garrett or HKS kit that will bolt straight on and from what I've heard, work better. A HKS GTRS would be a good turbo for your goals?

On an off topic note... Where abouts in Germany are you? I'm from Kiefersfelden myself :action-smiley-069: Was on the lookout for high performance imports when I was over there in January, best I got was a Legnum and a Stag :( Good to know there are others getting around :D

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
