Hey everyone.

I was wondering if a 2002 R34 GTS (rb25) turbo will swap onto a RB20 ( r32 ) I have searched and only came up with compatibility for the R33 rb25 turbo.

And to the best of my knowledge the rb5 turbo does have a steel wheel and will flow a bit better and produce a bit more power ?

Thanks in advance I have to make my mind up very soon or the turbo is gone.

Please respond asap thanks

well its an RB25 turbo, so its not really much different.

They are not steel wheeled at all, they are all ceramic or int he case of the 34 one, different again possibly?

more searching will give a faster answer

Will this turbo yeild some power gains ? I bought it from 150 $ USD with exhaust manifold and downpipe. The car had 40K on it. But the guys says no shaft play at all and no oil leaks.

Was the deal a good one ? Do i need the exhaust manifold or downpipe for any reason ? If I do not then I will not get him to ship it to me since it will weigh too much.

Btw you guys are really helpful !!

    • Some troubleshooting, connect up a timing light/gun with a proper ignition lead on coil 1. Hold the revs at 4~4500rpm and see if your timing is all over the shop, scattering off its tits. If so, there's a high chance your CAS is fked. But I read you have a Link ECU ready to go in, why not just skip all this and put that in - will make troubleshooting so much easier.  
    • Misfires when the car is fully warm are generally attributed to the coils (and/or the igniter, on cars with a separate igniter). They can stop working properly when they get hot for a number of reasons. Either electric/electronic, or from thermal expansion opening up gaps and allowing HV leakage. Seeing as you have replaced the coils, that could/should rule them out. But I wouldn't always assume so. Were the coils genuine? Or is there a chance you have bought some counterfeit Chinesium shit? Then we're back onto loom connections. They can fail when warm/hot for the same reasons. Inspections, cleaning of contact surfaces, ensuring that terminals are fully inserted, etc etc, are all justified. The same (heat effects) holds true for the other electrics and their connectors. AFM & CAS, primarily. If you try that Chinesium AFM, drive it around on low load until it is properly hot, but do'nt give it more load than you have to, except when you need to see if it will still miss. I'm dead serious about the untrustworthiness of the calibration of those copy AFMs. Injectors are unlikely to get hot unless the fuel is coming back around hot. You could try squirting them with compressed air or freeze spray to cool them back down to see if they are maybe the cause.
    • Alright, all the plugs looks good. Noticed that it starts to get bad when the car is up to temp, that's when things starts to misfire hard. next to do is Injector cleaning and such. Got in touch with a shop to do work on the injectors next Monday also help on diagnosis.

    • Hence why I've only modified my car into a pure daily. Everything has to remain reliable & roadworthy, while providing value and grin factor. It also must not be handcrafted to the extent that the car will be immovable if something breaks because you cannot get or make a replacement to at least limp around with.
