what result did you get eg what power @ what psi. when did it hit full boost, how user freindly was it?

which exhaust housing was it

car tuned again tonight. found the turbo had a leaking oil seal. oil through out the coolerpiping and intercooler. yay. blows smoke like thomas the tank engine.

still going to run this weekends drift day but we left the 5psi boost it had. i need to sort it by next weekend thoe for drift australia.

rb25de+t is an orsome combo. very pleased i did it.

Hi mate,

Had the .82 houseing on it!

Max power had it up to was about 283rwkw on 18-19psi and full boost about 3900-4000rpm (big cams). Need a surge tank setup and would have made 300. But that was on a built motor aswell.

As for user friendly there is not such thing! In the wet forget up touch boost unless your ready to hang on!

But other than that its a great turbo and in the dry if you drive it right its great!

Probably got a couple of old dyno sheets some where!

I think the guy that bought the car off me has a heap that i left in the car to!

But let me know how you go with it

Cheers

i had some dash plastics on the rx7 retrimmed to block off some useless controls (heater, cd, ashtray, lighter etc). looks heaps better than the scratchy plastic coating that used to be on display. going to fill the stezza din space with that sheet of carbon and mount some switches and the fc commander on it.

  • 2 weeks later...

hey guys well my car has been off the road now for about 4 months im doing the rb25det head to rb30et bottom end rebuild, my car was lacking power so i stripped the whole rb25det engine down and found 6 cracked pistons, bought a complete rb30 engine from the wreckers for about 350 dollars striped that down, sent my block do get acid cleaned, bored, and honed

Im waiting on my head to get back from getting a rebuild and my crankshaft pulley,clutch,flywheel,cranshaft,rods and pistons from getting balanced one i get that back we can start building my engine

i got a complete rebuild kit to suit the engine im building this includes

1mm ACL MLS Headgasket

Forged 20 thou oversized CP Pistons

Precision H-Beam Rods

Bearings,Gaskets,seals

other items i have bought to date include

Apexi Power FC

T3/T4 turbo

Extreme heavy duty clutch

Extreme light weight chrome-molly flywheel

aftermarket smaller crankshaft pulley

Walbro fuel pump

fuel regulator

items i need to finish the job

N1 oil pump

M1 water pump

thermo fan

surge tank

740cc nismo injectors

surge tank

oil catch can

split fire coil packs

Q45 throttle body

Q45 airflow meter

Plazmaman plenum or greddy plenum

new pipework

cant wait to its finally finished missing it already hoping to get around the 300rwkw mark so far it has cost me alot of money and time but in the end i hope it will be worth it

im doing the 25/30 thing at the moment. It will be nice to have more torque over the 25.

Yeah it gets expensive fast. My bottom end was over 8K to have built. But my goal is a little more than 300kw as my 25 made 399kw

Good luck with it anyway

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
