Ohh finally I have experienced 33 stock turbo shitness.

On a cruise today, grabbed for 3rd gear and bannnnnnnnnng.

turbo sounds like a jet, really bad. I think the bearings ****ed up big time, at least it didnt spit out the exhaust wheel!

Ohh well - anyone got any suggestions or have a upgrade for sale! Im looking for low mount, stock manifold internal gated replacement.

I have it set on 10, but usually, its gets a initial spike to 13 psi and drops, It somehow responds very quickly.

Its either now GT2530 or 2540 turbo.

Anyone got one for sale or know of one for or coming up for sale, please let me know.

Regards

Kim

Id go the gcg highflow with a vg30 exhaust housing for sure. If I were going something from HKS a GTRS or a 2535

Money talks. If you have the extra cash to buy HKS, you will end up with a better quality built turbo, a turbo that has been engineered to acheive the power@ higher boost, and better reliability. Also the turbines in a hi-flow turbo can be too big for the housings, which can cause other issues, such as fluttering while making boost.

That's an interesting comment Al, why do you say that over a high flow?

your talking about brand new parts which is machined by gcg and balanced

how could they sell you something that isnt balanced or not fitted properly?

if it was a second hand bits or catridge or somethinf yeah ok could be issues

but not with a new bearing kits etc in it, dont see how?

i dont see how hks can make a better turbo when garrett make them in the first place

do you mean the combos avaiable and r and d they put in? you can always get whatever hks in garrett format, just gotta look around and ask the right people

anyway i dont really know what im talking about my clutch is angry and im still on stock turbo so who knows :confused:

anyway i dont really know what im talking about..........
no arguments there...........:wassup:

The argument of "HKS Vs Garret" was been discussed numerous times, so everyone is entitled to their opinion.

The term "Hybrid", by definition means; "thing composed of incongruous (mismatched) elements." Now how can you argue that the hybrid turbo can compare to a HKS turbo. The amount of $$$$$$$$'s, research and engineering will greatly out way any Hybrid.

As stated b4, I myself have bought a second hand GCG hybrid and am very happy with the power, but know that a HKS turbo is far more superior. The HKS may not make a mountain load more power, but is an overall better product.

guys

I would go for a Nice HKS or Trust or Apexi turbo ,but the MAIN thing that worries me is E P A!!

If I was back in Perth now, itd be getting HKS T04Z treatment, 50mm external gate, Motec, big fuel system, injectors and possibly even forged internals.

If I do this here, I will be raped by police again, I learnt my lesson on modified cars here, and Im defeinetly not gonna be pulling off shit evry time I get a EPA, we modify our cars to enjoy them, not to be looking over ur shoulder every time for a cop or worrying about someone dobbing you into the EPA.

I want simple stock looking high flow, bit more power and a newer reliable turbo.

    • Hey guys! Y'all are the masters so figured I'd check in on a few items here. - My engine sounds ever-so-slightly more raspy than the other NA RB25s I've listened to. It's barely noticeable but definitely a slightly different sound. - When I back off the throttle at high RPM, I will sometimes get a pop out of the exhaust, assuming this can be diagnosed as misfire. Some history on the car: - Had an exhaust leak in auction sheet but was claimed to be fixed by seller (bought from USA importer).  - Car's coil packs and sparks were replaced when it was sold to me, but unsure on what the gap is and whether the coil packs are correct.  - A prior mechanic had misdiagnosed a pilot or throwout bearing sound as LSPI/detonation. Had played with timing a bit, pops/raspy sound of engine just got worse. Got timing reset. - Had failed emissions a few times. First time went in as is, failed. Second time, replaced cat, still failed, running rich as hell. Third time replaced o2 sensor, passed. Car still smells gassy though. - Timing belt and valve cover gasket also replaced.  - Gas mileage is... low. about 350-400K per tank.  Any idea if I'm having any serious issues here or does this all sound like normal old NA RB stuff and I'm fine to drive it with the pops/slightly raspy engine? If it'll help, I can get drop a video of the sound of the engine.
    • So....to find any R chassis part number, get your VIN (will be something like ER33-xxxxxx for you) and go to: https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan and enter it. From there you have access to a web version of Nissan's part system, FAST. It is a bit tricky to get used to, so maybe have a shot and post up what you think.  You can also search by general model but note in some cases your car might have different options so VIN is safest.  On diagram 211 I got 14075-75T16 for Connector, Water Hose If I search for part 14053‑21U10 that you posted, that is also a water hose but not the one bolted to the plenum and 14075‑04U00 is the fitting where the water hose goes into the block.
    • Yeah now we are talking I much prefer coolers in the front middle because it lessens the chance of a small bump to a corner stopping the whole event. I was thinking the AT cooler can move out of the radiator, delete the AT/engine coolant interwarmer and mount a separate cooler with a thermoswitch somewhere further back as is common in racing, that would be one thing. Beyond that, the engine oil cooler is an obvious one to move to the wheel arch, potentially one on each side, but unused space is an issue. I did have a earlier pic with the bumper off but it doesn't show how busy the corners are: DS is full of the auto driving sensors and PS is totally fully of windscreen washer fluid reservoir But ultimately I was hoping to keep the AC, and the water/air heat exchanger is fundamental so it is not just the radiator that needs to be in front BTW here's airflow to the rad as it ran at the track (one horn is gone now and I'll remove the lights next time):
