It doesn't matter. I'm sure the owner wont stop being a car fan just because of a little sidetrack like this.

Short sidetrack then. The HX40 I'm running has a 60mm inducer, 85mm exducer on the compressor side, and 19cm (ballpark .84 a/r) twin scroll T4 ex side. I'm at 1 bar of boost in 3rd by 4k-4.2k rpm on an RB25 with 264 HKS cams, no VCT, and a 1.2mm Tomei HG which probably bumps the compression down a little. O yeah, and like I mentioned before, stock RB26 intake with ITB's.

I do think aussie hp numbers tend to be a bit more conservative than numbers over here (which I like), but if I had to guess, I'd say I'm mid to high 500's at the wheels. Tick that down a few percent to equate with your guys numbers like I said. I pegged out of z32 MAF at 5.15v a long time ago with the old turbo (Holset HX35/40 hybrid) and this one pulls more than a fair bit harder.

I know this will rile a lot of guys on here up, but these things out spool and out flow GT35r's all day long. O yeah, and did I mention I got the turbo new for $450USD shipped from ebay? It came on volvo busses :P If you guys want any more elaboration than that, I'll start a new thread.

Do they have a slightly smaller version ? Similar to GT3071R/3076R ?

I started a thread on them, but I think a 7 blade HX35 might be close. I'm not sure what GT30's can do on the top end, but I think the HX35 might be a bit smaller than one. What are the demensions of the compressor wheel? <----please answer in the other thread.

tooo many farking warriors me thinks...

Bloody long read, but was a good one at that. Even though it was 2yrs ago, congrats Jason on having more balls then most.

Its funny how people continually pick on the little things just to "stir the pot", meanwhile missing the bigger picture.

fark me...that took a good 3 hours or so to read. Extremely helpful and useful thred to read tho - it's given me plus many more others the confidence to push out 25's to the 300rkw mark as opposed to the 270rkw that everyone thought was the sensible limit.

Good work Jason on your research and developmeny! Pity we wont see that reace motor built anytime soon from what i can derive.

And to al the haters/bitches on here...you're all haters and bitches STFU and get in line.

wow, what an epic read... Excellent effort/research. I would like to say thanks to jason for dedicating so much of his time and resources to this thread. Got a few mates that will be stunned with his results. I'll make sure they are sitting down before i show them :)

i know this was from a while ago but it was funny to read lol.

also any 1 that think"s a 25 or 26 block is better than a 30 needs to read up about rbs. I love all rb motors

if u had the money to stuff around with the 25 getting that power out of it ( claimed ) or run a 10.8 pass and not post it up so every 1 can see and i would not be a ass bout it

But what i don't get is why?

I have 2 rb25s 1 in a s1 stagea and 1 in a vl wagon and i like them good motor's.

but i can tell u if i had that money i would drop a 26 in it or 3L the bottom end with my 25 head.

Or if u really want u can bore out the 30 to a 3.2..

the other thing i not like about the 33 was the nos. only dick's run nos build the car do go 10.8 with out it.

most jap drag cars don't use nos and some of the time's they get in the gtrs is like wow i just cream in my pants lol

Nice dead thread resurrection.

Given the thread name is "max hp out of standard RB25" its kindof obvious why an RB30 isn't involved. R33s come out with RB25s standard, if you want to go fast but don't want to (aren't ready to) extend to building a new motor then just doing boltons to the stocker makes things a lot more affordable - the thread is about seeing how far you can run with that.

Here is a video of a mates R33 doing a 10.6 running an RB25DET with stock bottom end on BP98, no NOS etc:

He didn't spend the extra money on a 30 because he wanted to see how fast he could go with what he had :)

yer i know that was his point.

but build it to what can be used on the street every day with out the worry when it will give up.

with what he bolted on i would have tuned it to about 390hp and just run 16psi.

any how he did a good job getting the power he did.

i talked about the rb30et because it was mentioned earlier in the post

also 30 bottom ends are cheap as chips stronger than a 25 and the 25det head will go on with not much trouble and the motor will drop straight in

with that said hope he did well with the new motor

I had 330rwkw at 17psi with all the right bolt ons but..

Standard rb25s with 35/40s and big rear housings make alot of "un drivable"

Power, lag lag lag then boost

Around the track a 3037 was quicker with only 280rwkw as it was responsive

What's 500hp if you cand use it

    • To be fair passengers who aren't silly and have been in proper fast cars have often been pretty impressed once you hit 4th gear   
    • I suppose that's true. Barring almost any situation, I'll never sell so what the market does is kind of irrelevant to me. It's possible I'd make most of my money back. That spreadsheet I mentioned? Maybe I could make back more than what the car's total costs thus far are, but the parts and all that is possibly a different story... Thanks for reading. It was certainly a good moment and just makes the ties to the car that much stronger. It's exciting that the option will be there to bring it over, however I have some plans with a shop that may end up keeping the car there longer, not sure. Coupled with the fact I want to move there and haven't solidified any path yet. So in a way, it feels like I'm in a limbo state that is uncertain; time will tell.
    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.     
    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
