but that is as far as i have got so far.

a mate reccomended a kkr replacement turbo around $580 from ebay, had a look, rated too 430hp etc, what are peoples opinions on these, or a VG30 turbo, i like the idea of KKR because it is a new item and not used before.

any opinions, reccomendations etc would be very appreciated... thanks

no one keen on helping me :'(

Search here and on Google for lots on the KKR units. Mostly not to positive but anyway, have a read.

Ditto for lots of turbo and other options for RB20. See the stickys at the start of Forced Induction forum for lots of info.

I do feel for you though. There's so much info that you may have even more questions afterwards. Anyway, lots of options is always a good thing.

Good luck.

Honestly, a good look at the suspension and replace buggered stuff. Throw a proper dump pipe on it. A toshi remap for the std turbo, or perhaps an R33 turbo. Unless you are willing to poor thousands at the car i wouldnt go for anything bigger then an RB25 turbo with a chipped ecu.

If you ave cash left over spend it on some GTR rims and tyres and go belt the thing around the track and spend the money enjoying it rather then pouring cash into it. Getting carried away with mods ruined the fun i have with my car :)

GO the rb25 turbo , i boosted my vg30 too 16.5 pound daily and couldn't kill it, mind u all that rb20 in my r31 was good for was drifting and thrashing, made fun power and bigwank noises but, no good for daily driving. :D

+1 - cheap mod i got my turbo 4 $300 from sss automotive, rb25 turbo should tire u over till u can grab an rb25 witha decent snail :(

So So true. Enjoy the car Punt it around on as many track/private practice days as possible otherwise it will snowball into a money pit thats sits in the

garage in pieces with promises of being the weapon it deserves to be.

In all honesty you really need to evaluate what your long term goals are for the car and study study study cause man there is hours and hours of info on every path you could wanna take. its all been done. jus do it once and do it right otherwise your just pi$$in money up the wall.

+ 1 to having fun in your car insted of turning it into a money pit.................................. like me ;)

It'll cost you thousands and thousands to mod it, and will cost you that again to fix it wheni breaks every 3 months.

If i had my time again (and will soon) im gunna buy a stocko (or close too) coilovers, tie rods, castor rods, camber arms, brakes, fmic, oil cooler, and in your case r33 turbo, boost controller and tune.

Then you can have fun. for a long time.

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
