i can get my hands on one of these at a reasonable price.. 2nd hand of course...

i'm just wondering.. are these turbo reliable and is it a good choice ?

its a complete bolt on.. and i haerd it needs to be tuned.. also a new computer needs to be installed to get maximum efficiency out of it...

any recommendations or 1337 advice ? :headspin:

thanx

These turbos are a good choice and are very reliable, i have fitted several on R33's with a good increase in performance, an after market engine management system would certainly help in any case. They are a straight bolt on but from memory im pretty sure new oil and water lines must be fabricated

How much increase in performance are we talking about here?

250rwKw possible?

well guyz for ur infoo... i'm gettin a 2nd hks 2535 fully bolt on to a r34.. from a friend of mine... 3months warranty and its costing me 1850 for the turbo...

he said.. if i wanted too.. a powerfc + hand controller for 1350 i think* i wasn't to keen with the powerfc.. no money yet..

he did give me a warning that running the turbo without a new comp is bad for the engine... is that true ?? or the turbo wont run at full potential??

*shrugs*

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
