I'm in a bit of a bind. I had a genuine T67-25g kit including stainless manifold and 48mm ext gate which I bought for a build up on an RB25DE+t which I intend to run on E85 using a Haltech PS2000. The T67 was stolen from my garage. So I have a manifold with a trust flange and no trust turbo. Given that new trust turbos are well outside my budget and 10cm exhaust housing second hand units seem to be extremely rare, I was looking down the tried and tested Kando (kinugawa) path.

Kinugawa only sell trust flanges in 8cm and 12cm exhaust housings. I'm fairly sure 8cm would be too restrictive for what i'm building but I note a few people have used the 12cm on RB30s. Am I crazy to consider buying one of these?

Really appreciate any advice at the moment as i'm really not turbo savvy.

Sad face :( no thoughts? I've seen some 350rwkw on E85 out of the 8cm housing from Trust, this is where I was aiming in power anyway so that is looking like better candidate than the 12cm now.

Well the high comp engine does not help with back pressure and heat. Using a large 25G comp with a small L2 turbine in a tinny 8cm housing is going to make your engine pin and significantly reduce the life of the turbocharger. If it has to be a Greddy style of a turbocharger I recommend the 25G with a TD06H turbine in a 10cm housing which you can get them separate and we can machine it to suit.

Alternatively you can use one of our .82 turbine ended SS2 in .70 comp as an high mount. which is very reliable and will produces excellent turbo response while make the same amount of power as to a 25G compressor.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
