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.

    • 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.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
    • Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.
