Turbo was made by ats, same turbo as used on Clockwork conversion in Zoom. 13B turbine wheel, .63 vl exhaust housing, T4 comp wheel (think its a V-trim), 13b comp housing machined. Good for 250rwkw's. Was modified by turboworx to bolt straight onto RB20 (probably fit Rb25 as well) with all plumbing to bolt straight up, including heat shield for that stock look that we require to avoid defects. I modified the rb20 with cooler and exhaust and the turbo made more difference than them both put together. Never ran it above 13psi, as I never got it tuned. Was on the car for a month before I lost my license :-) The exhaust housing has the standard hairline crack all vl's have across the wastegate hole. The dual dump is a work of art.

Price $1200 for the lot.

BAO2ME, I can confirm that the turbo will definently bolt straight onto the manifold, I need to get someone else to confirm that the oil and water lines are the same, but I am 80% sure they will bolt up, intake hose fitting is the same, your exhaust will need slight modification to fit onto the front pipe as I had a 3 inch cat (which was a bit longer), so if your running the standard cat, you should probably replace it anyway, 3 inch -> 2.25 inch -> 3 inch is no good.

BAO..

the RB25 turbo is a direct bolt on to an RB20DET block.

so if this came off an RB20, then everything should fit perfectly for you.

when I put an RB25 turbo on my car, EVERYTHING, including oil and water lines and exhaust manifold lined up and connected perfectly.

So Unless the lines were changed on his RB20 when puting this VL turbo on, it should fit fine.

    • Has equal chance of cleaning an AFM and f**king an AFM. I think you can work out what happened. When the Hitachi ECU sees the AFM die and goes into the associated limp mode, then it will start and run just fine, because it ignores the AFM and just runs on idle maps that will do what it needs to get it going. But there is no proper load signal, so that's about all it can do. My suggestion? If you don't want to go full aftermaket ECU, then get some R35 GTR AFM cards and some housings to put them in, in the stock location, and Nistune the ECU. Better to do a good upgrade than just replace shitty 40 year old tech with the same 40 year old tech.
    • So my car was recently having trouble starting on initial crank, I would need to feather the gas for it to start up but besides that it would start and run fine. So I clicked the idle air control valve (with throttle body cleaner) and cleaned the MAF sensors (with MAF cleaner). The start up issue was fixed and now the car turns over without the assist of the throttle, but the car is in limp mode and wont rev past 2.5k RPM. From what I understand the IACV would not put the car in limp mode, so I am to believe it is the MAF sensors, but it was running fine before and now I cant get it out of limp mode. I cleaned the MAF made sure the o rings were seated properly. Made sure the cables were plugged in properly, the cables also both read the same voltage. Does anybody know why this is or what could be causing this or how to get it out of limp mode?
    • Ooo I might actually come and bring the kids, however will leave the shit box home and take the daily
    • Thanks. Yeah I realised that there's no way I'd be able to cover the holes with the filler, it would just fall through. Thanks again @GTSBoy!
    • That was the reason I asked. If you were going to be fully bodge spec, then that type of filler is the extreme bodge way to fill a large gap. But seeing as you're going to use glass sheet, I would only use that fibre reinforced filler if there are places that need a "bit more" after you've finished laying in the sheet. Which, ideally, you wouldn't. You might use a blob of it underneath the sheet, if you need to provide some support from under to keep the level of your sheet repair up as high as it needs to be, to minimise the amount of filler you need on top. Even though you're going bodge spec here, using glass instead of metal, the same rules apply wrt not having half inch deep filler on the top of the repair. Thick filler always ends up shitting the bed earlier than thin filler.
