I believe the difference between s2 and neo turbos are the material in which they are made, the s2 being made of ceramic where neo is steel.

But if you were going to find an answer, it will be here: http://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/55845-rb25-turbo-upgrade-all-dyno-results/

All wrong.

S2 has the original smaller turbine housing. Neo has larger OP6 turbine housing. Actual turbine inside is probably exactly the same ceramic unit. Both have plastic compressor wheels, although I can't say if there is a small spec difference between them - and nobody really cares anyway.

Why would you bother cracking out the spanners to put a turbo that performs like that and is ready to grenade itself?

It takes the same amount of time to put a decent turbo on.

You are absolutely right. it would make not make much sense.

I'm going to install in a new hybrid turbo I got for testing purposes.

The hybrid comes with the smaller R33 turbine and I want to swap this turbine with the OP6 (R34 GTT) one.

Stao (thanks!) already said the OP6 makes 20-30KW more power.

I was just concerned about lag hence-why I asked for a dyno plot.

The OP6 is said to have an A/R of .63 vs .50 for the R33

OP6

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
