ok fellas... i have the new toy for eugene in my grasps LOL *evil laugh*

it that what i need to do? manifold, external wastegate & oil lines?

or do i just play with the computer? ... unaware of turbos... still learning

i am taken him in for a service asap and they r going to fit unless some nice young man would do it for me cheaper..... lunch & maybe dinner included LOL

I'm pretty sure most T04's are externally gated, this means it wont bolt onto your existing exhaust manifold. You will need a new one which will take an external wastegate, or you can do what I did, had the external wastegate welded onto the exhaust housing, do a search on "td06 stage" in this thread and you might find some photo's of it, if you want photo's pm me your email and I will send them on. Next you will need new oil and water lines (I'm not sure if the T04 is water cooled, correct me if I am wrong) if it doesnt need a water line you will need to have the existing water line plugged up. Next you will probably come across some sort of boost/fuel cut as the stock ecu doesnt like much over 12psi of boost. Following this you will start to lean out at the top end as your stock fuel pump cant cope with the demand of the bigger turbo requiring more fuel. Next your stock clutch will start to slip and then die because it cant handle the extra power. Have I missed anything guys??? Fitting a bigger turbo isnt just a simple case of swapping them over it requires a lot of systems to be upgraded prior... oh I just remembered do you have a bigger intercooler? you'll need a fmic to help stop detonation.

Is her car completely stock? Geez... she started at the wrong end :) If your car is stock, I'd either sell the turbo and get an exhaust (the absolute first thing you do on any car to increase HP is change the exhaust) or put the turbo on a shelf and do a lot of other things first.

What are the actual specs of the turbo?

Coz it might be 2 big or mismatched for the rb25 and u will waste all your $$ putting it on there and will give u shit results.

denham, my t04 is huge, n this size works fine on rb25 so hmm i dunno bout too big :P

too small? maybe so

btw jax my manifold is up for sale as im going bigger again

exhaust is on its way just gotta get down to melb to get it done..... how much for ur manifold yoda?? yes i am doing the other things first. i dunno what sorta turbo it is or isn't finding out today b4 i pay 4 it. i 'm getting it at a cheap price thats y i ave natched it up now.

thanx fellas for the info... i figured the exhaust would ave to b done. yes eugene is stock... coz i dont know anything about turbos. but the twin exhaust is too gay for my baby lol.

  • 2 months later...

the same turbo as mine (which may be up for sale) on a auto soarer 2.5L starts boost at 2100 rpm and has 1 bar by about 3300rpm

im told it would be a little sooner on a manual 2.5L

the exhaust housing a/r is 1.00 from what i could gather. front housing is 0.7 a/r i think

not sure on the wheel sizes

but these turbos can come in heaps of different sizes

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
