the TD05 turbo is ok, would be a bit bigger than 33 turbo, good for probably 200-210rwkw but it depends on the model as there are a few different types, but you could run more boost. Dont think they are ball bearing but they are not to laggy ive been told.

if its 700 id get it if its in good condition, a bit hard to tell if you cant see it but.

well the guy who has it for sale is the one i brought my car off and is pretty reputable... its 50,000yen not inc postage i think... so add on whatever the postage is and thats how much it will cost.

stuff it i might just buy a 33 turb... cheaper... i dont want to make it into a monster... just a nice everyday driver.

EDIT**

thanks Clint!

i just emailed him then should get a reply tomorow...

hmmmm... probably wont be able to get it until januarys pay :) and im guessing it wont be there by then... so if someone else wants it... holla

Inark I wouldn't want to gazump you,so only if you definately can't get it I'm interested.

We have a blown R33 turbo ( IC full of oil) and I'm just considering what to do

Highflow it and go to a steel wheel or scrap it and go for an aftermarket upgrade.

My aim is to be able to run mid 12's. I've got the IC and exhaust and ECU management, now seems like the time to take the next step.

Anyone got suggestions????

why not oxy off an old manifold flange do your housing will fit and make up a custom dump oki?

Inark i dont think this turbo is watercooled either it just sits there cooking the oil. Most trust and Blitz and some to4s(hks at least) dont use water cooling either and isnt as efficiant. If i was you i would buy a blown r33 turbo and hiflow it

    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
    • Hi Everyone I am from West Pennant Hills in NSW. Been too busy until recently to attend to my RB25DET Series 2 engine until recently. I am planning to stick it into the S15 shell at this stage, unless a nice SR20DET turns up... For now, i am going to try and get the RB25 running and working well then decide what gearbox to use. My preference is to retain the SR20DET  6 speed gearbox and tail shaft to retain as much and least modifications as i can avoid. I am an old guy and won't be doing any heavy drifting so i don't need a bullet proof gearbox Does anyone have experience with starting the RB on a stand? I got everything setup as much as I can with the info i can find... endless searching and videos on Youtube I would be great to get some pointers Cheers Songo
    • Hey all, Recently have had my s1 r33 gtr serviced and noticed my coolant reservoir was topped up to the max line. Took the car out for 1 yesterday and noticed today the reservoir is completely empty.  Any ideas? Radiator is full
