Hey guys not sure which turbo will suit price/power/stealth

im after a turbo which is undetectable by cops, has more power than stock and isnt too expensive and has minimal turbo lag.

ive been looking at this hyergear g1 400hp rated turbo, its a direct bolt on for rb25 and its $1250 i have a jjr split pipe coming too so i wanna hit it all in one go.

rpm range for boost is 1500-3600 rated 20psi

link : http://digi-hardware.com/atr43.html

can i have this turbo on running 8psi like what my current turbo is running now and should it be fine? or do i need pfc with it?

current mods :

- 3.5 cat back

- return flow FMIC

- HD clutch

- BMC panel filter

the final power figure im aiming for eventually is whatever the injectors can throw out safely so 220? with 80% or 90% duty? not a gun on this part.

Thankyou in advance!

Absolutely agree with the above. Hypergear's hiflow of your existing turbo will be the closest thing to your stealth requirement and cost less than the ATR43. But don't upgrade your turbo if you're not going to upgrade everything else. At minimum you want Nistune, fuel pump, intercooler and 14 psi, + turbo upgrade or you are wasting your time. And that's just to take you to the limits of your stock injectors. Time for you to read a few sticky threads I think.

Sorry forgot to mention the main reason for this post, my turbo is making loud noise like a sander on a piece of perpex. it gets louder and more noticeable as it pass 2-3 mins of consistent WOT.

under normal driving conditions there no unusual audible sound.

thanks guys.

so best option is to get my turbo high flowed? what will the power rating be with bigger wheels on it? turbo lag etc?

2 to 3 minutes of consistent WOT... Where are you driving that thing, across seven airport runways in a row?!

Where is this place I want a go

i had this high pitched noise on my old GTT, thought it was poss the turbo but in the end it was the FMIC which had a slight leak around one of the silicone joiners. So i just pulled it all apart and put it all back together making 200% sure all was nice and snug, and got some good clamps and ditched the ones it came with. Norma ones i think?

i had a highflow hypergear on my GTT as well, nice bit of kit. Stealth, punchy and plenty of fun in a rwd Skyline. 250rwkw ish on 98. 280'ish on E85.

But like the others, no point getting the turbo, dump etc without getting something to tune it. As you have a R33, you're better off getting a power fc i reckon.

no doubt ill be gettin a pfc just wondering if i should rebuild my one or be looking at something else. whats the differences between a rebuilt highflowed r33 turbo compared to a hypergear g1 turbo in regards to power/response/ boost/cost etc.

2 to 3 minutes of consistent WOT... Where are you driving that thing, across seven airport runways in a row?!

He was actually driving an R32 with an RB20 in 3rd gear and at 3,000 RPM. It was slightly uphill.

Like others have said you will need to upgrade more if you are changing the turbo, seems a waste to upgrade the turbo and only get 1/10th of the upgrade it can offer. This is what id be doing

Fuel pump

Some sort of injectors if not an adjustable reg

3 inch dump

Aftermarket computer. Weather it be a nistune or power fc

Maybe a EBC

Z32 afm

Turbo

Tune

But doing all of that if a cop sees something he does't like he will defect you, so really if you went for a garrett a trubo is going to be the least of your worries as he will probally get you for to low etc.

sweet guys thanx for all ur help. Im gonna just drive it around like a granny till i save up for a hypergear highflow, pfc, injectors, fuel pump, 3" turbo back, ebc, z32 afm or map sensor. and a sexy tune!

sex!

thanks again guys.

-split dump

-venom hi-flow cat

Get those done first.

What sort of CAI are you running? If you haven't already upgraded that yet do that before you go altering the turbo. Even if it is just a good panel filter in the stock box.

    • Hey guys! Y'all are the masters so figured I'd check in on a few items here. - My engine sounds ever-so-slightly more raspy than the other NA RB25s I've listened to. It's barely noticeable but definitely a slightly different sound. - When I back off the throttle at high RPM, I will sometimes get a pop out of the exhaust, assuming this can be diagnosed as misfire. Some history on the car: - Had an exhaust leak in auction sheet but was claimed to be fixed by seller (bought from USA importer).  - Car's coil packs and sparks were replaced when it was sold to me, but unsure on what the gap is and whether the coil packs are correct.  - A prior mechanic had misdiagnosed a pilot or throwout bearing sound as LSPI/detonation. Had played with timing a bit, pops/raspy sound of engine just got worse. Got timing reset. - Had failed emissions a few times. First time went in as is, failed. Second time, replaced cat, still failed, running rich as hell. Third time replaced o2 sensor, passed. Car still smells gassy though. - Timing belt and valve cover gasket also replaced.  - Gas mileage is... low. about 350-400K per tank.  Any idea if I'm having any serious issues here or does this all sound like normal old NA RB stuff and I'm fine to drive it with the pops/slightly raspy engine? If it'll help, I can get drop a video of the sound of the engine.
    • So....to find any R chassis part number, get your VIN (will be something like ER33-xxxxxx for you) and go to: https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan and enter it. From there you have access to a web version of Nissan's part system, FAST. It is a bit tricky to get used to, so maybe have a shot and post up what you think.  You can also search by general model but note in some cases your car might have different options so VIN is safest.  On diagram 211 I got 14075-75T16 for Connector, Water Hose If I search for part 14053‑21U10 that you posted, that is also a water hose but not the one bolted to the plenum and 14075‑04U00 is the fitting where the water hose goes into the block.
    • Yeah now we are talking I much prefer coolers in the front middle because it lessens the chance of a small bump to a corner stopping the whole event. I was thinking the AT cooler can move out of the radiator, delete the AT/engine coolant interwarmer and mount a separate cooler with a thermoswitch somewhere further back as is common in racing, that would be one thing. Beyond that, the engine oil cooler is an obvious one to move to the wheel arch, potentially one on each side, but unused space is an issue. I did have a earlier pic with the bumper off but it doesn't show how busy the corners are: DS is full of the auto driving sensors and PS is totally fully of windscreen washer fluid reservoir But ultimately I was hoping to keep the AC, and the water/air heat exchanger is fundamental so it is not just the radiator that needs to be in front BTW here's airflow to the rad as it ran at the track (one horn is gone now and I'll remove the lights next time):
    • your right the maps for Australia came out in 2017 but are 2010 maps. i got the updated maps SD card put it in and it was the same. Same maps in my Brothers Nissan Patrol. 2020 i think his car is
