Rb 25 Turbo Choices


Recommended Posts

Hey all,

Posting on behalf of a mate.

He has a 33 GTST and has the following mods (track only car)

1000cc injectors

Power Fc

Profec 2 boost controller

Walbro E85 pump

Cam gears and cams

z32

Stripped the car completly.

Runs slicks on the rear

Looking at what turbo and what top mount manifold to use?

Plus what forward facing to use?

Will a bigger throttle body be needed?

What he is setting it up for is 1/8th mile dragging.

Hes after a turbo for excellent response and mid range power.

The engine will be rebuilt if / when it goes bang.

Not chasing any specific power goal, just decent times over the 1/8th mile

What options are there?

Only needs to pull hard from a standing start to the end of an 8th mile!

Any other mods needed to?

most cars on the strip are built for bigger power and even plenty of these street cars are the same and have much bigger setups. In yous instance you are talking 1/8th so the question has to be asked is why?

whats the point of the 1/8th? where you heading with the build?

whats quick on 1/8th is going to be usless (or just about) on 1/4

to be honest because the only venue i have to drive my car is an 1/8 mile track.

plus the car will be used for the occasional hill climb and the sorts.

So its more about response and excellent mid range, without running out of puff

Its just hard reading and getting ideas as there is nothing on here for what im looking for.

Its a strickly track only car also, so dont car about a rough idle for cams or a pig to drive etc as its out on the track a handful times a year etc etc

Gtx3071 on e85. Plazmaman plenum with his 72mm throttle body. Should be good for 350rwkw with killer response. Nitrous is awesome set up correctly. Unsure why people dislike the idea of using it. What's a nitrous kit worth now days?

I don't personally have that setup but micko on here did and from all reports pulled like a freight train all the way through. Maybe someone that actually know micko and went in it can explain more? Um I think he made 335rwkw on e85 internal gate version .82! Also on the stock mani aswell.

Lol @ top end, its an 1/8 mile you wont get half way though third gear,

just get a hiflow..stock plenum and everything...it will be just as quick for what you need...

the money you save put towards your suspension setup, tyres and practice runs because that's what will make you fast...

Anyway I know nobody will take any notice of this post so potato...

    • What are you doing with the car? Drags, sprints, racing? A decent upgrade of dba 4000 rotors, good quality pads (endless, project mu, intima are all I have used), quality fluid and braided lines. All have held up to multiple big track days and street duties. No need for big fancy kits as some also require significant energy to come upto operating temp. Look at 350z caliper and rotor upgrade too.  @Dose Pipe Sutututu comment on them and did a good write up.
    • I've driven that one and it's a great deal and drives nice. The owner definitely treats it right on track. You would have gotten it for what you paid for this one too.   Keen to see what you do to this one. 
    • I have a question with regards to R34 GTR guards. All the info here is quite old. Useful, but old. At what point does the bumper itself become a clearance issue with wide wheels on a R34 GTR, specifically the part I've drawn in red here: All of the info that people post about implies that 285 is as far as you'd go before scrubbing becomes an issue, but they speak of hitting the inner plastic liners, not the bumper itself. Just how wide could you go if you took the liners out? Has anyone done it? I have been messing with my own car and spacers and heavily cursed my lack of planning, but I might not feel so bad if there's actually no gains to be had by going a GTR guard and front bar combination for $5k+ of money I do not have after spending about that much already on my solution which now has problems. (Woo) At least I now know why GTR guards and bumpers flare out like this over their GTT lesser cousins. I feel that in 2024, someone has gone further and attempted to run 315's or somesuch on the front of a R34 GTR. If you have, please post. If you're tried and failed for some other reason definitely post so I feel better about my mistakes
    • Genuine URAS Type R front guards in FRP. These will fit a GTT. They will only fit a GTT. If you have a GT or GTT and want wider fenders with a Z tune look up top, this is what you want. You use this with a regular GTT fitment bar. Not a GTR bar. They fit GTT guard liners and plastics, not GTR items. So if you're reading this thinking "Ah! I have a GTT or GT and want wider front guards that bolt directly on, but do not want the hassle of changing my bonnet and bumper and plastics and undertrays or anything else, this is what you want. The fitment is annoyingly perfect. I really would rather someone pick these up in person and not ship them. SE Melb.
