Would this fit in a RB25DET R33 Skyline?

I dont know the specs

Just wanted to know if anyone knows about this turbo cos i am thinking of buying it.

I dont know jack about turbos. is this externally waste gated or the stock waste gate would do?

what mods do i need to fit this in my RB25DET engine

any thoughts would be much appreciated.

cheers.

PS: Can any one give specs to the stock R33 turbo?

Injector 550cc

Hybrid front mount

TURBO SMART Fuel Cut defender

Boost Control

TURBO SMART Super sonic bov

Oil Catch can

KN AIRFILLTER

FRONT GTR BRAKES

GTR SUSPENSION

Umm i thinks thats about it for the engine & suspension

Would it make a power difference if i fit this turbo in?

I have no power goal yet but i need abit more power than what i have now...

i think i need to dyno this to get readings :confused:

well your mods are okay, you would most likely benefit a lot from an aftermarket ecu. however the turbo is 0.42 a/r well thats what the casting says, if my knowledge is correct the stock r33 turbo is 0.50 a/r which means the turbo you are going to put on is smaller in size, meaning it will flow less airflow, hence it will be a power downgrade. where did u find this advertised? does it say what car it came off? does it say what its suited for?

I wouldn't consider it an upgrade. Not worthwhile anyway, when you have to factor in the cost of a new dump/engine pipe to bolt up and modify the compressor outlet piping to suit that turbo.

Without seeing it, my guess is its a non-ballbearing turbo as well, looking at the design of it.

Invest your money in another turbo would be a better choice.

    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
