Hola

Hello everyone,

I've been around R31s for quite a few years, purchased my first R33 a couple of months back and love it. Already spent some coin on it, with much much more to come. Looking at making it a reliable 300kw street/track car.

It is a S2.

Currently has: GFB elec boost controller, GFB elec blow off valve, FMIC, 3" magnaflow exhaust, Extreme twin plate race series clutch, Tein coil overs, break upgrade

Planned: Larger turbo, plazmaman intake, upgrade ignition system, upgrade fuel system, aftermarket computer, E85, tune, upgrade suspension, eventually forged internals.

4th gear syncro is on its way out so ill throw a new gearbox in it next and then swap out the diff to a stronger LSD. should make for a reliable fun car. My target is 300rwkw.

Hey mate, welcome. Before you go changing gearbox, you may want to check how much oil is in there. Mine used to crunch into fourth at high revs and it turned out there was only 2.5 litres of oil in it when there should be 3.6 - 3.8 litres. I changed the oil and refilled with the right amount and the box has been beautiful since.  Worth a try before you go to the effort of changing boxes and obviously the cost of it too.

The mechanic that put the clutch in couldn't get the drain plug out of the box to change the oil, so there is a good chance it may be low, i might find a hoist, have a crack at the plug myself and throw some oil in there.

thanks

Got it on the hoist, took about half a litre of oil, took it for a drive and 4th gear is still troublesome, it is only at speed that it has an issue which is a little confusing, I can't engage 5th to 4th, but I can if I go 5th, 3rd, 4th.

drop in Nulon Smooth shift addictive, usually helps with these shit boxes (literally)..

Mine grinds in 2nd at 7k rpm, but a workaround is to bash the limiter and slip it into gear... 3rd and 4th grinds too, work around just shift as hard as you can "reef" it into gear LOL... #traklife

Yours looks so much cleaner than my shit box :)

 

Does it dose good?

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By MBS206 · Posted

      It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
