Ive read through endless pages of dyno graphs and comparisons, ive even tried a few combos my self. but im after peoples recommendations as to what would be a good, over the counter purchase to put on my RB25.

I want around 270-280 with awesome response, with the potential to go to 300 ish. Turbo will be in a high mount application and more then likely externally gated.

i have previously run a gcg 3071R with .71 avo rear housing in the low mount postition internally gated and made 280 rwkw with cams and gears. wasnt a bad turbo at all. but i still felt it was a bit of a compromise being internally gated as well. boost control was an issue with this set up.

so yeah... post some suggestions people.

Cheers

find out what troy (roy) uses on his rb20 and run the same setup on your rb25det

from memory its a td06 from a GTR twin kit run in single form on a proper manifold, external gate

its here

td06 20g-8cm2 rear housing

with a proper setup

yeah i'd love a TD06 20g, one of my mate has one on his 25 and makes 317 rwkw on 17 psi. awesome response too. however at 4K for the kit its a little out of reach.

after a garret option which would be cheaper yet still effective

You could either wring the neck of a GT3071 (with a 0.82 rear housing) or GT3076 or perhaps something in between like discopotato 03 just ordered ie 52 trim 76mm.

If you have a split manifold you could order a divided housing from ATP which might improve response slightly and would suit any of these options.

For about 280rwkws with fast response you can try a 52T 76mm comp on a GT30 Turbine in BB assemble using .63 rear housing. Or .58 rear housing which would definitely increase response shaving off about 20KWs top end power. You can also replace the standard .50 To4E compressor with a .60 T04B comp. Which can also increase turbo response.

have thought about tuning for E85 but availabilty issues is a concern for me as sometimes its not even for sale in SA. that and the fact for 300 rwkw i'd need 740cc injectors or bigger!

limpus: the 3037 pro s would be my ideal choice for a turbo i reckon. how much you asking?

I was thinking about this last night, 4k for the td-06 kit seems cheap when you consider what it comes with compared to a custom garrett setup.

this is a rough guide, for what I would do with a garrett setup, obvioulsy cheaper if you buy a china minifold.

decent manifold - $1200

turbo - $2000

wastegate - $500

oil and water lines - $300?

Custom Dump - $250-300 in mild steel

intake pipe- anywhere from $10 to 200

Mind you, if you can get a td-06 kit for 4k please let me know where lol

yeah thats the thing tho, exhaust manifold, dump, intake and oil and water lines i do not need to factor into cost as i'll be doing them all myself. So just need turbo and gate really.

that RX6 kit looks insane! lol

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
