Can't see why not. Don't listen to people that say silly things like supporting mods etc. Just bolt it on and boost away into the sunset. ;) rb25s were made for turbos after all.

After seeing the results of his VNT I think Hypergear would be a far better choice, I don't think any other manufacturer would spend so much time with an R33 on the dyno to develop turbo options for an Rb.

You can put any turbo on an rb25. Just depends on what you want to use the car for and how much power you want. Hypergear stuff isnt crap and props to them for making the choice easy for skyline owners when it comes to setups.

The reason why garrett and precision dont spend so much time developing a turbo for the 25 is most likely because they aren't aiming for skyline owners but moreso aiming for the entire performance/turbo world.

Dont be confused a garrett gt3582r ("3540") is a good turbo but it will be on the laggy side of turbos for a rb25. You also cant just bolt one on and away you go. You'll need supporting mods like a " ecu, atleast 740cc injectors or bigger if going e85. 4" dump into a 3.5"

exhaust with a sutiable cat. Drop in cams and valve springs. Depending on fuel your planning to use will determine what fuel pump set up you need. Remember a (3540) is a 700hp turbo so unless used on a track on constant high revs it will feel laggy on the street. You'll need other things for a 3540 setup. Suspension, brakes, clutch etc. You would be bettet off spending the money on a HYPERGEAR hi-flow. Ss1pu would be good for a simple upgrade. Or his ss2 vnt if your prepared to upgrade other bits & pieces. Or a 3076 hta. Precision 5757/5858 billet cea wheel could be a goet as well.

I found this on the dynosheet section, It is a GT3582 in a .82 rear housing, This is a very good comparison to mine which has a more "Rb25det defined" 3582 equivalent turbocharger.

Compare with boost plot:

Which is identical to my controlled run (thick yellow), Thin yellow is the defined version.

Power wise it made 445rwkws @25psi @ 4500RPM. It is not that bad, still not a responsive turbo for a daily, which I'm working on.

Depending on how Cheap a GT3582 can be obtained, I can certainly modify it to the "defined" version at a fee. After the completion of research.

Save your money up and buy a power fc if funds ade tight or what I recommend go straight to a adaptronic/Vi-Pec/ Link or Haltech direct plug in mate. Then you wonf need a afm. Jyst use thd map sensor and tons more features mate. Greddy blue is good for a paper weighf thats a8 it lol. And aem im not sure many people tune them here in Australia. Pick whatever ECU your tuner is most comfortable with I should have said.

I love this magical "RB25 specific" stuff. Turbo has NFI what engine it is attached to, sure - there are some combinations which will suit each other better or otherwise but for the most part that is bigger picture turbo/engine/part matching stuff (ie, tuning in the bigger picture). Comparing two large turbos on an engine not good at spooling turbos and allowing one to start at 1500rpm and giving that turbo 4.6 seconds to reach 4500rpm (Hypergear - assuming the 9 second run Chequered uses still applies) versus one which starts at 2500rpm and allows it 3.1 seconds to get to 4500rpm (GT35R) proves that the Hypergear turbo can build more boost by 4500rpm if it's given 50% more time to do so. Out of interest, the GT35R is actually hitting full boost 3.7s into it's dyno run after starting 1000rpm later, versus 4.6 for the Hypergear. How they'd both compare on the same start rpm and ramp rate, who knows.

A question which hasn't been asked so far - is that an actual Garrett GT3582R, or an ebay-type "GT35"? I'm starting to wonder.... and if that's the case, save your money and keep the stock turbo.

Its not "magic", it is ingenuity, more because enough work and researches has been put into this item, specifically for a Rb25det. Results came from the dynosheet section that has same setup as mine

The dyno automatically pickup data in set roller rate and completes in a given time. So at the point of where data began to plotted car is already on fully throttle, in which makes no difference to boost generating behavior. You can start plotting from 500RPMs and it will still match identical RPM/Boost plots.

Plus turbocharger in this size is not sensitive to ramp change, lets give / take 1.3 sec makes 0 differences.

GT35 - 400rwkw turbo.

You're going to need more than 550cc injectors unless you plan to run a pretty high base pressure to start off with which would then lead to ensuring you have a very good fuel pump to supply the fuel @ that rate/pressure.

    • Ok i will get those 310mm. I found one but on a different site. This is the description on those...is it ok? Technical parameters: - Axle: front. - Disc type: ventilated. - Number of holes: 5. - Disc diameter: 310mm. - Total height with center: 54mm. - Thickness (new/min.): 30/28mm. - Designed for brake calipers manufacturer: Sumitomo.
    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
