VQ is still sitting on workshop floor, but we have since turned back to utilising the existing SR instead :) Wanting something more brutal than linear.

Ah ok, so no result expected then? HTA on the SR? :P

25/30 with 3076 .82 ex gate.... do it... power fkn everywhere...

I dunno they're all the same..."which turbo for my rb25"...It seems nobody knows the answer...

3076 + RB25 is a match in every way! Its tried and tested and a good all round package...... The GTX version seems to have been a flop for those wanting daily response...... That HTA concept sounds good but no real results as yet to go off...... Precision seems to have good options like the 5558 which responds well on Kurtis's 34......... Kando and HG have good options too......... LOTS of good turbos for RB25 :yes:

yes I know there is lots of choices, but which turbo for my rb25???

Well Lithium's neck is on the line so he obviously knows something about these FP turbos..... Try one and report back so i can copy if it works :laugh:

Freddy plenum with Q45 TB..500$$.

vs

Plazman and TB 2000$

I know which i would choose :yes:

I discovered the hard way with the Freddy that you need to get the face machined flat before installation.... coolant coming out of the exhaust is not good. Lots of stress and thought the engine was fkd.

I tried 2 of them with similar results till I machined it and problems went away... so if you Freddy it, just make sure it is machined flat!!

You get what you pay for ;)

well any body that has read this forum thoroughly would know this and get it machined...others would just hand a big pile of cash to JEM and let them worry about it... ;)

Haha ouch! I handed it to Plazmaman thankyou very much :laugh:

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
