hey guys

im in the process of swapping a new rb25 into my s2 r33, as i got low compression issues in current motor.

i have been doing some reading and ppl with similar setups to mine are making good power with the gt3037 turbo

i currently have a kkr430 that has shit itself (white smoke out the back - will never touch kkr again only had it for like 4 months) and im in the market for a new turbo. What other turbos would you's recommend for me? I have around $2500 max to spend, i don't wan't a crazy lag monster, but dont mind a bit of lag for a bit more top end.

my current setup is

splitfires

vipec ecu

bigger injectors (stock ones bored out to just under 500cc i believe)

walbro pump

i think thats the important things.. then fmic exhaust etc obviously.

any help greatly appreciated. i know i dont know much about this area of cars atm but am trying to learn as much as i can. thanks again.

I would say do your FMIC & Exhaust First, with a close second to the fuel pump. Then save up for the turbo, injectors and all that, have it all put in the same time to save on labor and tuning charges. Well that's what I'm doing, and my turbo choice would be a GT3076R, my aim is to get a reliable 250rwkw in my series 2 r33. Also maybe do a search, there are plenty of posts on here and other websites about turbos...just depends to how much you want to spend and what power figures you want.

    • Already looked at a few prior to getting the MX5, really nice car, had all the mod cons, but I wasn't really sold on the new "look" I did miss my 2017 Limited, and I personally prefer the "look" of the older car over the new model, but, when pondering I kept going back looking at MX5's But it was same same for the new ND's, I wasn't sold on the new "look", especially the RF with its weird roof, which only half goes down, like a targa top sort of thing As I stated before, I did look at NC's, but the cars I looked at were PRHT's, but I didn't like their roof line "look" of the PRHT, until I saw the soft top version, (someone on SAU posted a for sale ad for one with a soft top that caught my attention, you can blame them for my choice.....🤣) and.... that old style detachable hard tops were available for them, which keeps the old MX5 more smoother flowing roof line, and the more rounded body style, similar to the NA-NB, to me, the arse end of the ND looks to "modern" Much like how I prefer the NC1 front bar, over the later models How long will I keep this car for is unknown, but currently, there's nothing else out there that "floats my boat" for a small, fun, little "sports car", that I can play with and enjoy looking at and driving But, who knows what the future holds, and going off current new car styling, if I replace it, it will be a older model something something       
    • looking forward to your t56 swap man its a game changer if it works! 
    • So, when are you trying the new GR86 or BRZ?
    • Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c
    • Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?
