Cool, thanks.

Do you know approx how much that would cost for that setup?

Booky

As the others have suggested

INJECTORS would also be a priority on your list

GT35R with 0.82 is quite responsive on the RB25

GT35R with 0.82

High Mount Stainless Steel Manifold

Tial 38mm Wastegate

All these items are BRAND NEW and come complete with a 12 Month Warranty

We can do it for $3100 DELIVERED to your door

asuming r33 rb25det? see how much racespec can do a gtrs front with a vg30 rear combo for

GT28RS UPGRADE

if you supply the Turbine Housing $1850

If we supply the Turbine Housing $2000

If we supply VG30 Turbine Housing $2150

Have a look here

GT35 is too big for the 2.5ltr even with a .82 rear housing.

A GT30 550 HP is far better suited to the motor.

Brooky, is the motor internally standard or not?

what other mods are done, if thats all thats listed then you have a LONG was to go.

Its not a case of bolt on for $3100 and make big power by any means of the word.

There is at LEAST $8000-10,000 you'll have to spend depending on ur other mods

Also to NOTE: Try getting Garrett to repair a turbo under warranty :P

We have a GT35R w/0.83 rear on a R33 4 door. R34 NEO Bottom End, R33 Head, Greddy Plenum, Z32 AFM, 850cc INJECTORS, 044 pump, High Mount manifold and Trust Gate, FMIC, POWER FC.

294rwkw on 19psi, he had fullboost by 4 - 4500rpm

PS. Warranty work is quite easy to deal with here in SA, not sure about the other states

Cheers

Yes, the engine is stock at present...

Dont plan on pushing the limits then.

300rwkw is too much for an rb25 bottom end.

Search around you'll see most are pushing 260rwkw at the most.

A few a little bit more but thats not on a daily basis.

A smaller GCG hi-flow or similar will make that power and be far more responsive and make the car a very fast street car.

R31Nismoid is right. I've been looking into upgrading turbo on my RB25 and on the standard internals you wouldn't want to push 250rwkw's for reliability.

Thats saying you have fitted the necessary injectors, fuel pump and probably AFM.

I'm looking at an upgrade but thinking twice about a hi-flow I heard some people can struggle to reach 250rwkw's while others make it easily.

The upgrades I've got planned will probably go in over the next 2 months, so I'll let you know if you haven't yet done anything.

I haven't got the budget to upgrade engine internals so I'll be looking for a reliable 250rwkw's.

Can anyone suggest a suitable turbo to suit the standard manifold and not a hi-flow of the standard turbo?

do a search, GCG hi flow.

or stuff similar to that. Will yeild all answers, people use them and they work great

with a .63 it would really limit the flow.

a gt30 with the smaller comp wheel, with a .63 would be better.

However... a few people are using them (use the search button) and they have traction issues where the guys using the gt30/.82 housings are not having so much drama due to it being a little more progressive

    • I know why it happened and I’m embarrassed to say but I was testing the polarity of one of the led bulb to see which side was positive with a 12v battery and that’s when it decided to fry hoping I didn’t damage anything else
    • I came here to note that is a zener diode too base on the info there. Based on that, I'd also be suspicious that replacing it, and it's likely to do the same. A lot of use cases will see it used as either voltage protection, or to create a cheap but relatively stable fixed voltage supply. That would mean it has seen more voltage than it should, and has gone into voltage melt down. If there is something else in the circuit dumping out higher than it should voltages, that needs to be found too. It's quite likely they're trying to use the Zener to limit the voltage that is hitting through to the transistor beside it, so what ever goes to the zener is likely a signal, and they're using the transistor in that circuit to amplify it. Especially as it seems they've also got a capacitor across the zener. Looks like there is meant to be something "noisy" to that zener, and what ever it was, had a melt down. Looking at that picture, it also looks like there's some solder joints that really need redoing, and it might be worth having the whole board properly inspected.  Unfortunately, without being able to stick a multimeter on it, and start tracing it all out, I'm pretty much at a loss now to help. I don't even believe I have a climate control board from an R33 around here to pull apart and see if any of the circuit appears similar to give some ideas.
    • Nah - but you won't find anything on dismantling the seats in any such thing anyway.
    • Could be. Could also be that they sit around broken more. To be fair, you almost never see one driving around. I see more R chassis GTRs than the Renault ones.
    • Yeah. Nah. This is why I said My bold for my double emphasis. We're not talking about cars tuned to the edge of det here. We're talking about normal cars. Flame propagation speed and the amount of energy required to ignite the fuel are not significant factors when running at 1500-4000 rpm, and medium to light loads, like nearly every car on the road (except twin cab utes which are driven at 6k and 100% load all the time). There is no shortage of ignition energy available in any petrol engine. If there was, we'd all be in deep shit. The calorific value, on a volume basis, is significantly different, between 98 and 91, and that turns up immediately in consumption numbers. You can see the signal easily if you control for the other variables well enough, and/or collect enough stats. As to not seeing any benefit - we had a couple of EF and EL Falcons in the company fleet back in the late 90s and early 2000s. The EEC IV ECU in those things was particularly good at adding in timing as soon as knock headroom improved, which typically came from putting in some 95 or 98. The responsiveness and power improved noticeably, and the fuel consumption dropped considerably, just from going to 95. Less delta from there to 98 - almost not noticeable, compared to the big differences seen between 91 and 95. Way back in the day, when supermarkets first started selling fuel from their own stations, I did thousands of km in FNQ in a small Toyota. I can't remember if it was a Starlet or an early Yaris. Anyway - the supermarket servos were bringing in cheap fuel from Indonesia, and the other servos were still using locally refined gear. The fuel consumption was typically at least 5%, often as much as 8% worse on the Indo shit, presumably because they had a lot more oxygenated component in the brew, and were probably barely meeting the octane spec. Around the same time or maybe a bit later (like 25 years ago), I could tell the difference between Shell 98 and BP 98, and typically preferred to only use Shell then because the Skyline ran so much better on it. Years later I found the realtionship between them had swapped, as a consequence of yet more refinery closures. So I've only used BP 98 since. Although, I must say that I could not fault the odd tank of United 98 that I've run. It's probably the same stuff. It is also very important to remember that these findings are often dependent on region. With most of the refineries in Oz now dead, there's less variability in local stuff, and he majority of our fuels are not even refined here any more anyway. It probably depends more on which SE Asian refinery is currently cheapest to operate.
