just out of curiosity who else makes a similar kit to this? trust with TD-05??

Trust Td06-20g with 10cm rear housing would be about the same but then you need gate and manifold.

Also the td06 is plain bearing, oil cooled only, while the hks kit is ball bearing (think) water and oil cooled. also its newer which means new tech whichs should also mean less lag (hks says the GT pro s, is power and responds)

Cheers Michael :P

thanks for the map

look forward to the other also...

Does look similar... Timing is an issue im trying to deal with atm...

Will be going to mercury in the new year to get it sorted...

If you print this off and goto your ignition map - maybe just write down the differences?

Also had trouble uploading straight from excell so had to print off and scan onto a photo program.

I think I've got a boost leak so am going to make up a couple of bits of pipe - one with a blanked off end and the other with a valve fitting so we can do a pressure test - it really feels like I've got a boost leak.

AFAIK you can buy the dump separately. greenline are a better bet for a reply if you have a query.

i dont think this dump is available separately, it is specific to the 2835 turbo/kit. is it not?

that is correct :P

HKS make dump pipes for Stock R20/25 Turbo Flange, they also sell a GT dump pipe but that is only for EVO's and Sr no rb (and its still a stock setup dump pipe just comes with a hks front pipe)

If you think im wrong check the HKS website under extenstion

Got the car dynoed on a different dyno yesterday afternoon - no changes just a modern dyno dynamics dyno in shootout mode.

The 341.9 horsepower - in kw is 255rwkw - sounds much better than the 275 rwhp figure from the other dyno.

Interestingly the AFR's were reading differently between the units - the original tune was done with a motec and the tuner was tuning to afr's around 12.8 - 13.1 which I thought was lean - yesterday with the autronic lambda unit it was reading rich at 10.9 - 11.3 at full load.

We tried pulling a bit of fuel out but it lost power, then tried putting 1 degree of timing in - too much knock, then tried pulling out a degree of timing out and lost 20 hp.

The motec unit must read lean as at cruise with the o2 sensor switched on it was reading about 15.8, whereas the Autronic was reading 14.7 which is about right.

We didn't muck around with it - I just wanted to do a few power runs to get a dyno readout from a different dyno.

10 kw less thasn you sly 33 - I don't have a catch can though and have the stock airbox with k&n flat panel filter.

Cheers!

damn thats a nice power figure. I only managed 218rwkw with a GT30r and 470nm or torque I think. Torque was there but lat in the rev range (5k)

Here is my ignition map - (95 ron fuel) anyone wanna post theirs up to compare to mine?

timing.htm

would one of these hks 2835 pro's be to big for an rb20, would i see full boost by 4000-4500 rpm??

I don't think the unit is too big for a rb20. Physically it's not much bigger than the stock rb25 unit - probably similar to a gcg hi flow. You should see full boost by 4000. I can get 18 psi at 3000 - when I have access to a scanner in a few days I'll post up the data sheet from the dyno dynamics dyno - the power run was from 2500 rpm to 7000 and at 2500 it had about 16 psi. The print out shows intake temp, boost, speed and AFR's from memory.

I haven't been in any other rb25's with turbo upgrades but I can say the car goes seriously fast now - you can overtake in fifth no worries, 4th is quick and 3rd you have to be thinking quick and hang on!

Cheers

Yes it's done in silver. We made up the steel cover plates so they wouldn't coat the inside of the housing BUT they pulled the covers off and did the housing inside and out...?

Had the cat off the other day and noticed some tiny specs of the coating in it (smaller than a grain of sand) - the outside of the housing is fine though.

Just were a bit worried of what affect the bits of coating would have on the exhaust wheel but I guess we'll find out eh? Really hope it just gets blown out.

The coating cost about 70 dollars but if they are going to do the inside make sure they are going to do it in the more expensive black coating. This stuff comes apart at 750 degrees and you will most likely see 800.

We've been told it's basically impossible to get the stuff off once applied - even when sandblasting it just bounces off.

Cheers

excellent turbo kit, my results here:

I need to spend more time on the dyno to get it up there, I am not 100% happy with the current tune. The adjustable actuator really confused the tuner, and couldnt be bothered to adjust it.

cool, thats not too expensive then.

Do you think there will be any increased boost response due to more heat being retained? or is it just to insulate the engine bay from getting too hot?

Cheers.

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
