whos the dude on here who just got a GTRS tuned on a 33? he got i think just over 250rwkw on 1bar, so i think there should definitly be more in it with more boost, which would put it quite ahead of the 2530- which is a good solid street turbo, which can only be faulted for running out of a bit of puff at the very top end.

For the price of the GTRS's at the moment they are a steal.

There seems to be lots of support for the 30xx series, looking at dyno runs the power looks like a light switch (i even think the 2835 looks to come on pretty hard) are these really good for the street? surely 3rd gear would bag street tyres just coming onto boost, let alone trying to accelerate hard in 1st or 2nd? Sounds like fun, but frustrating when lesser powered cars beat you to 100!

I have a 2835proS on the way at the moment. Going to have to run R-compounds full time, as the 2530 already fries tyres with its paltry 220rwkw! :)

building a RB25DET with a TD06-25G, nice laggy turbo with good topend power, and a misfiring system to keep the turbo spooling while I'm off the throttle. The one that I've bought is a metal sleeve thingamajiggy (can't remember the name) so its not steel bearing or ceramic, and can withstand a lil bit more punishment than a standard turbo.

As a standard swap/upgrade for a R33 RB25DET i'd say get a 2530, but I dunno how they react to RB25DET Neo's.

Funky you have been talking about this setup for about 1 year now, when the hell will you get all these antilag thingamergiggies done?

Is the 2835pro s going to fit on the stock manifold without modifications?

As for traction, good tyres and decent suspension setup helps alot!!!

i hope so! i think it all bolts up. Kit comes with its own dump and all the lines. I think the one thing ill need is a new intake pipe as the compressor inlet mouth looks big, but im fairly sure its a blot on kit.

can someone with ~280rwkw comment on drivability? are these cars still fast at speeds below 100 or is it just wheelspin city?

While i love power, it makes you slower if you cant get it down!

Damn impressive resutls...are you sure it was only 13psi:confused: I have read of those sorts of power figures at 1.3bar. Is it a std RB25:

No its not standard. I dont know what has been done other than bigger cams, injectors, external wastegate, it was a import this is how it came. It was dynoed by Brad Sherriff in Tassie.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
