hey mate,

the fastest gtst i have ever been in had the apexi RX6 turbo kit & mild cams...i think it had dyno'ed 290kw @ wheels.

great spool/response as well..the guy was trying to sell it to me and took me for a spin around mt cootha in it....lets just say it didnt have any problems cutting the rear wheels loose...LOL

i can try and find the guys detials if you want, he started a workshop near mercury ms

ok kewl that would be great if you could.... i just heard about them and wanted to find out a bit as they seemed a very good direct replacement turbo..

these are awesome turbos but in a r33 with tune and cams wont boost till 3500-4000..u would def need to rebuild the engine so it can be reliable!

if u like a kick in the pants rush then this is for you personally i think these shit on hks variants of the same output!

if i had 8k i would get one ..u can buy them as kits.

IHI make these suckers.

ohh so they are a bit laggy i take it... oh well i have have seen laggier i was just thinkin of runnin 10psi till i get a DECENT front mount and computer an then injector and fuel pump..

what sorta power do you think i would be gettin with,

stock engine

hks pod

full custom turbo back zorst

an runnin 10pound..??

well also depends on tune and what u have done to the motor!

not sure about power youll be making but i know a red r33 had one was making 330rwkw's with stock internals and drove it aorund for 9months like that at 18psi....mmmmm

if u get one get small exhaust housing will spool up quicker!

would any1 also be able 2 make a guess as 2 what i would find 1 for 2nd hand with low K's..?

thank you

hey,

i was looking at buying this turbo before i got my HKS one.

The Apexi Rx6 comes in may forms, if you go to the apexi website, there is a pdf file which tells you the differences between each model.

The one i was going to buy was the 450hp RX6 and it came with a Manifold, Wastegate and Dump Pipe; it was on yahoo-auction and it ended up selling for just alittle bit over $2000

here a photo of it:

p.s the turbo is only oil cooled and if you cant find a REAL apexi one, you can always get the IHI one (IHI is the garrett equivalent)

Cheers Michael :P

    • It still combines inches with mm, especially when you have .5 inches involved, and mm and inches that can go in either direction. This would give a clear idea on both sides of the rim, right away, with no arithmetic. Even better if somebody gives you the dimensions of the arch of multiple cars. i.e GTR may be 125mm, a A80 Supra may be 117mm, or something along those lines. Yes, you can 'know' that going from a 10in rim to a 10.5in rim with the same offset moves both sides about 6mm, but you still have to 'know' that and do the math. Often it's combined. People are going from 9.5 +27 to 10.5 +15. You may do the math to know it, but if it was going from (I had to go look it up to be sure) 241mm/2 - 27 - 93.5mm from the center line to (more math) 266/2 - 15 (118mm) from the center line. Versus 93mm vs 118mm. It's right there. If you know you have a GTT with 100mm guards you can see right away that one is close to flush and the other absolutely won't work. And when someone says "Oh the GTR is 120mm" suddenly you see that the 10.5 +15 is about perfect. (or you go and buy rims with approximately 118mm outward guard space) I think it's safe to say that given one of the most common questions in all modified cars is "How do offsets work" and "How do I know if wheels will fit on my car" that this would be much simpler... Of course, nothing will really change and nobody is going to remanufacture wheels and ditch inches and offset based on this conversation :p We'll all go "18x9+30 will line up pretty close to the guards for a R34 GTT (84mm)" but 'pretty close' is still not really defined (it is now!) and if you really care you still have go measure. Yes it depends on camber and height and dynamic movement, but so do all wheels no matter what you measure it for.
    • But offsets are simple numbers. 8" wheel? Call it 200mm, near enough. +35 offset? OK, so that means the hub face is that far out from the wheel centreline. Which is 2s of mental arithmetic to get to 65mm to outer edge and 135mm to inner. It's hardly any more effort for any other wheel width or offset. As I said, I just close my eyes and can see a picture of the wheel when given the width and offset. That wouldn't help me trust that a marginal fitment would actually go in and clear everything, any more than the supposedly simple numbers you're talking about. I dunno. Maybe I just automatically do numbers.
    • Sure! But you at least have simple numbers instead of 8.5 inches +/mm, relative to your current rims you do maths with as well, and/or compare with OEM diameter, which you also need to know/research/confirm..
