R33 Standard Turbo And Best Bolt-on Turbo

[JD-33]

Hi all,

I have recently purchased an 1997 r33 gtst and was wondering what the standard turbo on it was? I have read mixed opinions and no one really seems to know.. Also, I am also wondering what is a good Bolt-On turbo (based on others experiences and/or what they have read) to the RB25 in order to get good low end response.. (ie for drifting).

Any replies would be greatly appreciated..

Thanks Guys..

Alot of ppl recommend the gcg highflow upgrade if you want 220-250rwkw with similar spooling time to the standard turbo. no need for external gates\new manifolds\new oil & water lines which is always a plus i guess.

Whats the cost of the highflow?

[GtstCoupe]

ABOUT THE $1800 TO $1900 RANGE FOR A GCG HIGH FLOW.

A LOT OF GUYS DO ALSO RUN 2535'S AND 2540'S WHICH ARE SIMILER

SPOOL TIME TO STOCK.

I THINK IF THEY ARE THE SAME RATED POWER MOST LIKLY THEY WOULD BECAUSE OF THE HOUSING SIZE IS DIFFERENT NOT JUST COMPRESSOR WHEELS AND TURBINE WHEELS. BUT NENGUN SEAMS TO BE THE BEST FOR TURBOS , I AM LOOKING AT A GT-RS , THE 2535 ISNT MUCH BIGGER THAN STOCK 2540 IS WHAT YOU REALISTLY WHAT , ONCE AGAIN YOU MUST HAVE A TARGET POWER IN MIND.
