Wrong flange, and you will need a new dump pipe

ah shit...

so i guess a 33 T is the way....

[MANWHORE]

yep, 33 turbo, straight fit.

s15 turbo, not straight fit. Probably not much more power either.

[Oblivion]

no.

only neo turbos or N1 turbos are i think.

just get a ball bearing spend more...it will last longer and have a better power range.

Hey guys, this topic caught my eye. So if a 33 turb is simply bolted to the RB20DET, are there any other ugrades required? How much power gain would be expected from this?

[Oblivion]

em should be putting about 190-200rwkw with a proper tune and 1 bar...i believe there is slight mods to oil and water lines needed. boost comes on about 4000 though.

Yes. All rb25 turbos are bb whether they are s1, s2 or neo 34. Oblivion needs to do more research.

+1.

if rb25 turbos weren't ball bearing then rb20 turbos definately wouldn't be ball bearing.

Perfect example of the blind leading the blind...

Bolts on buddy. Stock 33 turbo second hand for $350-$450. Highflow for about $1000-$1500.

cheers, thanks for the replies..

You may find that the water line banjo sizes are different at the turbo end between your stock turbo and r33 one. I had thought it was a late r32 got the ones that suit 33 turbo vs early r32 are smaller and dont fit, but apparently it's fairly random.

Oh, and it helps to get the compressor outlet pipe aswell, otherwise you have to make one or mod your rb20 one to fit.

Other than those 2 things, it's bolt on......if you drill and tap the rb25 turbos comp cover to fit the nipple for the pressure signal.

It's not a hard job, just be aware of the possible problems up front.

You should spend 300 dollars buying mine.
