CATKICKER

Not sure how happy I am with it really... Bit to laggy for my liking but does sound very cool! Once spooled up it goes off it's head but not good for off the lights or when you are in third and give it a punch it not responsive, you have to down shift. Think it comes in at about 3,500-4000rpm and full boost at 5000rpm. I am already thinking about taking it off and swapping it for a R33 S2 turbo. I rekon it would go much better on an RB25! Hmmmmm, lesson learnt I think. But will be much easier to do the swap the second time around. Might have to take you up on that offer Jaff!

Well, I fixed up the coolant feed line (What a pain it was!) and took it for a run (YAY no leaking). Bit slow and no kick to it at 8psi so I wound it up to 14! No wheelspin and has reasonable lag but pulls hard/solid. I would say I have more power now but not as useable... I am just about to go out and fix a small oil feed leak and will then take it for a real run and adjust the boost (I'd say 15psi before I get it retuned). Not sure about it yet... Does have a LOT of top end though! Will update when I have had a good run and play with it.

Thanks for the pics! Well done to GMB, looks like it was a good day! I now have my new turbo on so no excuses for the next one!!!!! Will have to organise my CAMS and tyres before then so I am prepared and the sting isn't so much at once! Todd

Mate that is looking VERY nice!

Hey Guys, I installed it today (BIG job!)... here are some pics. I am going to take it for a run tomorrow and play with the boost... Will update once I have done so...

I would not expet so, however if you were running it at 14psi I believe you would as the stock cooler is quite a restriction...

do you plan on modding after that? If not I would reccomend a remap depending where your ar Dr-Drift in VIC did mine (I am in Tas) and will be doing my retune... Unless you plan to leave it as is after that or live close, I would say a PFC would be best... From my limited knowledge of r33's I would expect around 180-190rwkw once tuned from a series 2 (better turbo than the series one - nylon comperssor wheel)...

What mods do you already have? An intercooler is really only a supporting mod!

going to be putting it on this Sat so we will see how we go!

Thanks RedDrifter, I just learnt something! I knew what it did but not how it did it! THANKS!

Hey Mate, I am just about to replace mine (probably this weekend...) I have an R32 GTS-t and will be chasing about 2hungee (It is working fine, no problems) PM me if you are interested. Todd

Ha Ha Ha!!!

what is that? the 13yr old stench??

so, where are the cars?

ah, no prob! I figured you had thought of it (espesially sine you have enough brains to invent and build this device!) Happy to pay $200 for it! One of those things that you want the first run upgradeable (and updates freely availible) for future waves if enlightenment .

Good work! Can't wait!! Would you not be able to organise them to ship in say lots of 10? Due to the small size shipping should pay for itself if the price is right... Just an idea!! (Although you have probably thought of it already! )

ha, thanks for the offer Jaff but from what I have been told it worked well and I don't believe it will be but will update once it is on! should be about a month because I want to get a screamer first and will be doing my timing, water pump, pulleys ect at the same time!

oh, interesting. Thanks for the educated insight... Having said that would you expect it to perform better than a stock RB25 turbo? We will have to see how it goes, I just want to get a screamer pipe before I put it on...

well it was either this or a stocko r33 s2 turbo so for $500 it can't be any worse! I believe it wend VERY well on the previous RB20 it was on so I don't know why you say that... Are stock turbos BB?

cheers skisII... how does yours go now? my Garrent housing look simalar (but I guess you would expect that )

Turbo now SOLD Hey All, Well today I purchased a new turbo for my R32 (RB20DET). I have been told that it is the following, however he was not 100% as he purchased it as is... R33 Exhaust Housing with Steel Wheel Larger Wastgate - Unknown Actuator Larger GARRETT Compressor housing with larger wheel This came off an RB20 and was apparently a bolt up (other than an oil line that I was given) Is anyone able to confirm this from the following pics? (Would be GREAT if you could tell me what type of Comp housing it is).

yeah, wouldn't mind seeing your KILLA R34 GTR and 300rwkw R32 GTR and your Nova and your CRX!

love some pics! you can email them to me if you like... PM me for address... Thanks!

mate, you need to retune once you fit... you would benifit from it though only if you have aftermarket ECU or a remap (like me ) Are these new or used? Condition? PM me please...

BUMP!
