I've done three of them and they've always bolted straight up, oil and water lines all match up fine. Try find one with the compressor elbow that has the vacuum nipple coming off it factory, I'm fairly sure they come off the R34 turbos

what do you mean no power gain?

RB25 turbo at the same boost the RB20 turbo was set to will produce a fair bit more power.

remember to use the actuator from the RB20 turbo on the RB25 turbo

that way you get 10psi stock instead of the 7psi the RB25 actuator holds.

many years ago, I put a series 1 R33 turbo on an RB20.

with 10.5psi and no tune it made 152rwkw

Also, R33 and R34 turbos are not the same.

R34 turbo has a bigger rear and will be laggier on teh RB20.

Stick to R33 turbo.

just go to an exhaust place, tell them to remove the intercooler piping that goes from the turbo tot he cooler, and tap a nipple to the pipe as close to the turbo as they can.

that is where the vacuum line from the actuator will go.

The one i drive was laggy with the 33 turbo on the RB20 anyway, pretty stock sort of setup.... Not sure if its an RB20 thing or due to the bigger turbo?

If its an original a31 rb20det, the water lines have a different (smaller) banjo bolt. can't remember size, m16 (a31) instead of m18( r32, r33) maybe.

Got caught out when I did this on my first cefiro.

So you can get water lines off a r32 rb20, they will work, or make up custom water feed/return lines.

And yeah, you'll see some gains. worthwhile mod if you need to replace turbo anyway.

    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
