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*

    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
