Im looking at buying one of these for my R33 and just thought I'd do some research in the mean time

I have stock turbo at the moment with X-Force exhaust, turbo back. It looks like the dump will fit directly to the back of the RB25 version of the 2835 but thought I'd ask if someon knows for sure first hand

Also I have a front facing plenum setup with a plumback arangement that is a bit different and just wondering about the inlet size of the turbo cause I can quite work out how its set up and what size it is

At the moment I have a 45 degree silicon bend coming off my turbo (2.5 inch) that goes to my intake pipe which expands to 3 inch before the AFM. The pipe has been customised to suit the stock rocker cover breater and have a plumback BOV ported into it.

Any help, pictures etc would be much appreciated :)

Thanks

Callan

yeh? I was just hoping i could use my existing dump but oh well.

Think im gonna have to try and work out what to do with the intake pipe when i get the turbo but yeah think its just gonna be a bit of mucking around

How did you rate difficulty/problems with installation? Anything else I should know?

Thanks guys

A new intake pipe shouldn't be much of a worry.

The only other thing is the dump position, might not be exactly the same meaning a new pipe to the CAT...

But otherwise nothing a exhaust shop can't do (if you can't), and same for the intake piping really :yes:

Just sell the old dump - more cash in your pocket!

Pro S kit comes with an intake pipe too.

The dump will fit up perfectly with a stock type front pipe, When i helped a mate fit his he had a second hand trust dump which fit fine

Installation is a breeze. The hardest part is getting the water feed behind the head in.

yeah the only problem with the intake pipe provided is my pretty.... i dunno if ud call it complex but yeah its a bit tight, BOV plumback setup with my front facing plenum... Guess ill just see how i go and if i have to get a new pipe made up or get something modded then it shouldnt be to major

thanks guys, now i know the possible problems im up against.

whats the deal with the water feed line? just a bastard of a spot to get to?

200 to 260 is a big jump, though you'd only notice it after like 4500-5krpm, but it really must have felt like you were being glued to the chair after that :)

I'm curious though, isn't the 2835 a high mount? If so, why would the intake change? I mean, the piping won't match exactly, but it isn't like there is a lack of room in that part of the engine bay.

plus my stock turbo only has a 2 inch (or is it 2.5"?) inlet so my intake pipe is much smaller but also custom made to suit my setup so the hks item will have to be modded or ill have to change it with another custom one

    • Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys
    • Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels
    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
