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:

    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
