Looking to build a 300kw/

Not looking for a Track build, just a really responsive Street car.

Now ive got the change to get my hands on a 30/25 or should i build my 25det how it is?

i understand matching turbos will give responsivness and the whole twin vs single debate.

And just reading through the 400kw+ thread has left me scratching my head even more.

And dedicated street cars out there making soem resonsive number who can lend some input??

What ths diff in High mount vs low?

check out the RB30 dyno thread for AL's car, GT3076 320rwkw and only a little more lag than the stock turbo on the RB25.

that being said, the RB30 is not as simple as just dropping it in, you have to modify bits and pieces to make it all work. the stock RB25 with again the GT3076 is still a pretty responsive setup (full boost ~3500rpm vs ~2500 in the RB30) and a whole lot easier/simpler to get legal.

sydking you have been pming me abit about different things with your car...

If you go the 25/30 route, im not 100% sure, but i think you will have alot of hassles if you want to keep awd with your car (I would)

+1 for 3076r, as you have the same motor I can tell you it is very responsive.

for a street driven car, high mount is asking for trouble (not that an external gate isn't either)

if your goal is a responsive 300kw without too many headaches, stick with what you have got.

Yep, GT3076R with internal gate seems to be the go, in 0.82 a/r housing

Or GTX3071 in the same housing.

Or better yet, you can wait for EFR7670 or 7064 to make it to mass production. Based on their comp maps, they seem to be killer turbo for an RB25, particularly the latter. And comes with a nice big internal wg and with T3 flange too!

Consider the Hypergear SS1.5PU. DVS JEZ will be tuning it this saturday hopefully and numbers will be up. Ive got the SS2 on my car, was mildly bolt on and not too hard to fit in. Looks pretty stock, dead stock if I had the heat shield and stock airbox on their but you gotta compromise sometimes.

I thought your car was non turbo, are you DE+T ing or is this a different car? Don't just jump into a Garret, and don't just jump into a Hypergear but take it from me, I had owned 3 garret turbos(3071, 3076 and 3582), all of which should have been on my car but there were so many more factors when going Garret. Running a 3071 gives you awesome response with about 280rwkw. the 3076 a touch more lag but opens up 300rwkw. The 3582 can push closer to 340rwkw on the stock motor, but you will be pushing 25+psi here which is quite alot for the stock motor.

I'm running 14psi low boost 19psi high boost. I never use high boost. The car is very quick, nicely responsive(flat til about 3300 - 3500, makes no difference if low or high boost, you will reach your peak boost by this rpm). The Garret 3076 turbo is NOT designed for the Nissan, it is a generic application turbo which happens to be the best turbo Garret make for a stock Rb25. On the other hand the Hypergear turbos(SS series and the ART43 range) are tried, tested and developed with only the RB25 in mind. 98 fuel I'm pushing big horses and close to 700nm torque. Its the torque delivery which is the big difference here, you can create peak power but depending on how and where the flow is in the turbo will determine what the torque will feel like. 700nm of torque, my car is squatting and lifting like Ive never seen before.... and I might have even more potential when I get a larger intake pipe.

I would seriously try the ATR43 G3 on a RB30/25DET.

I rekon it might out do the 3076. Its actually a slightly bigger turbo but i think the 3L bottom end will make the difference between them pretty much void.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
