(almost) Turbo Charged X-trail...

[StealthX]

Hey guys...

Im Cam.

im 18, from perth, studying automotive engineering @ uni, love skylines, love nissans...

at the mo i'm piecing together a turbo kit for my 2002 manual X-Trail Ti-L

what brings me to a skyline forum you may ask?

apart from using the stock turbo from an RB25DET (see the wanted to buy section if you happen to have one lying around), im copying most of the engineering from said engine from R33s

looking forward to sharing info with yaz.

and also looking forward to still getting my ass whooped every time i line up next to a skyline, even when my car's finished haha

Good to see someone who actually comes up with the goods.... Hope all goes well with it

Haha this should be interesting, one of my mates has a Xtrail that we always used to rape. The thing used to chirp third so easily lol.

[StealthX]

haha thanks fellas.

it should be all fine providing i don't get GReddy - ahh, greedy i mean - in terms of boost/rpm...

haha

stock internals are good for 400hp and 8-10 pound, guys in the US have the same engine as me (QR25DE) in a liberty/camry sized car called a sentra. so my 6 pound is pretty conservative. there's bucket loads of info on their forum too, heaps of guys bolt on turdblows with pretty cool numbers.

its all in the tune, so a professional tune is a must...
