I'm assuming you DO want more top end power than the stock turbo??

because you wont beat the stock turbo for response. :/

other options like a highflow rb25 turbo (ie. GCG) might be the way to go, steel wheels etc. and similar response to stock...

but in short, Nissan lightened the stock turbo by using plastic/nylon and ceramic components. It means it wont last as long and cant take much boost (1 bar is enough to kill it very quickly) but if the car is left stock and not thrashed it would probably suit it just fine.

If you want more power than the stock turbo can give you, there will likely be some compromises and one of those will be slightly less response/more lag.

You can still keep turbo lag pretty close to stock however...just not exactly the same ;)

gcg is garret is it not? correct me if im wrong thats just what i thougth it was. but dnt for get slideingperformance on these forums he does highflows for like 1200ish i think.

garrett an gcg are to different companies,garrett does there hi-flow for about $2200,gcg does there's for about $1700,garrett has a lot better/stronger components in side there turbo,i did a little custom work for garrett in december,

HKS GT2530 for the win. :ermm: Blistering response, I think it would be just the same as stock turbo if not better. But it does run out of air up top, I think from research it dies from ~-5500rpm, but that saves you having to go to redline all the time.

Just for an opinion, I just installed a GT-RS and running on just the HKS actuator I can't tell a difference between the stock turbo with tuned EBC and the GTRS in terms of lag.

So what is actually stronger? Because to me that sounds like a pretty incorrect statement

The GCG uses:

Garrett cartridge

Garrett wheels

Factory machined housings

The Garrett item uses

Garrett cartridge

Garrett wheels

Factory machined housings

So what parts are actually left that are different? None.

That to me suggests they are (component wise) the same thing.

Ignoring the actual spec of the turbos which is irrelevant when we talk strength of components.

The TD05 is a bitch to fit, but for what its worth - its a fair bit better than the stock R33 turbo.

A mate of mine runs a TD05 16G from an EVO 3 on his RB20DET. It DOESN'T spin the "wrong" way, has a single pulse turbine housing, spools about the same on the RB20 as R33 turbos spool on RB20s - but flows an absolute crapload better up high. It hit ~200rwkw without trying too hard....

They run a much larger turbine wheel than R33 turbos, and a slightly bigger compressor wheel - I'd say they'd have to be easily comparable with an HKS GT2530 in terms of power and spool.

It should be the same as a GT2835 with the .48 A/R in terms of power if it's from an EVO 3

      3D printing fun

      By Sean'O · Posted

      Howdy friends, So another weird one today, I was looking into replacing some broken clips holding the front grille for the R32 GTR (part number 01553-03831), and noticed the brackets which are supposed to hold the grille in place were also missing 😑. I do recall seeing this issue many years ago, but didn't fix it at the time. A quick look on eBay and I was able to find the genuine brackets, along with all the screws which suited the headlights (part numbers 26042-08U05,26092-08U05). Happy days!....  Once they arrived however there was an extra nut in the packaging which implied that there should also be a bolt or a stud, and sure enough, after a bit of searching I found this thread from 2013, and @Ants clearly shows a stud should be present. Reading around a bit more, it's possible the headlights on my car are the "povo pack" headlights as mentioned by @funkymonkey in this thread way back in 2008. This could explain why the studs are missing on my set of headlights. Looking at the headlight diagram I wasn't able to see a suitable part number for the stud itself. The headlight did indeed have a recess that looked like it would accept a stud, but interestingly no thread or anything obvious how the stud would be affixed to the headlight, I suspect it may have been glued in, press fit, or melted into the plastic at the factory. Another member may be able to clarify if they happen to have a genuine set of N1 headlamps. The only thing we have to work with within the recess is a keyway which likely is there to prevent the stud from rotating within the recess. In any case, back to 3D printing, I put together a model which acts like a pug with a friction fit inside this recess, making use of the keyway so it doesn't rotate while tightening a bolt. Printing in TPU will allow it to slightly swell making a nice snug fit without cracking the part. I've designed the adaptor it to accept an 20 mm M6 bolt (stainless with a cap head in my case), as opposed to the standard M5 stud and I made use of the standard galvanised split washer that came with the genuine brackets from Nissan. Once the bolt and screws were all in place, giving the bracket a gentle shake gave the classic "shaking the car" feeling, very solid, which gives me confidence this is going to be able to hold on much better than the janky solution which seems to have been here for the past decade or so. Overall I'm really pleased with how this turned out and maybe there are more people out there running these headlights without a centre stud at all!

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Hey everyone, This is my first post apart of the introduction. I tried searching a bit on the forum but couldn't really get a straight answer. I got the car to my mechanic as I felt it being weak. It seems that it was missing on two cylinders due to the injectors. I had all my injectors clean and the car runs much better. The mechanic also confirmed my suspicions that the cat is clogged and needs to be tackled asap. The cat rattles a bit and the hot exhaust warning frequently lights up when driving after getting the injectors clean. In my introduction I was asked about what modification I might be interested in and mentioned a cat delete. From what I was told, this is not really beneficial on the RB20DE and there are more cons than pros.  Could perhaps anyone give some suggestions on what the best course of action would be since the current cat is toast and needs to be removed/replaced anyway? I can also sometimes smell a strong smell of fuel, but I'm not sure if this is related.

      When I was replacing my pump due to being stranded in the wrong state, I went with the Deatschwerks 320lph kit. It is a direct plug in to the stock wires, harness, everything. It comes with a plug... but you can plug the OEM plug directly into this thing. https://justjap.com/products/deatschwerks-dw300-fuel-pump-nissan-s13-silvia-r32-r33-r34-skyline-c34-stagea?currency=AUD Downside: Won't actually flow that much on boost if you want to push it on E85, but it's comparable to the 040/255 etc. Little more actually.
