hi guys

i have a GQ patrol with a RB25DET in it and was thinking of the best way to go to get more low end power but yet it can still hold its own in the top end i would like to get at lest 200kw at the wheels but keeping in mind i'am not running 17's i have 35x12.5 15

i was thinking hi-flow R33 turbo, 550cc injectors, maybe power FC or nistune, front mount but dont know what size was thinking 600x300x50 with 2.5" in and out let...i can't think of anything els

what do you guys think any help would be good

Your best bet is to look through RB25 Dyno results thread and go from there for turbo selection.

But what you have planned, it sounds like a recipe for what you want.

Since RB25DET have VCT, ask your tuner to tune for VCT to come in early for low end power if possible.

from what Ive noticed, Hi-flows tend to make there power high in the rev range, you want low end power change your turbo choice maybe or at least tell the person doing the hi-flow that its for a 4x4and not a car ........other than that Id think your on target..

Even look for something like a HKS 2530, will be super responsive still and give you the power your after.

Probably wont need larger injector's, deffinatley go a larger front mount.

Dont forget to, that with big 35"s you will show a lower figure on the dyno, changing to smaller tyres to get it tuned will result in the 200rwkw easier.

Last option is more expensive but try and get a RB30 bottom end.

Is the HKS 2530 bigger then the stock turbo??..if so it will not fit as the stock turbo is just about sitting on the engine mount

i was thinking about the RB30 bottom end but was told that it is not as reliable

    • Sadly I can confirm if you are actually seeking to drift, you will quite easily spin up one wheel. Even if you're going in a straight line. I am not entirely sure of the metrics/terminology here but there's only a certain amount that the helical will actually spin both wheels. I've seen it on video with my own car where two lines of smoke switch over to just one after you really get in to it. Unlike with a clutch diff where you can keep your foot planted until the car regains grip, in my experience with the helical you want to be utilizing traction control allowing LIMITED slip or lifting (partially) when you start to spin up both tyres with a Nissan helical. Which makes them pretty sub optimal for drifting duty. That said... this is probably a helical on numbers alone. Just put the Kazz in
    • Let's just fix the problem by f**king the rest of the gearbox.
    • Unlikely, as per Greg's post. This is not helical diff behaviour unless one wheel is up off the ground. Shimming what? You don't "shim" a mechanical LSD. Probably not in the sense that you have heard of people "shimming" a diff. And the process that Nissan f**kwits call "shimming" a diff involves super-preloading a VLSD cartridge against the side of the diff to create a friction/wear point (in a place that it wasn't supposed to have one) to make the sloppy, useless, viscous diff into a hybrid viscous/mech abortion. In case it isn't clear, I consider the process to be stupid. Nike.
    • How much does the shifter move when the car is in gear with the engine off? If it is more than about 1cm you need to replace your shifter bush. Your shifts will just get crunchier, not faster, with a short shifter unless you also rebuild the whole box
    • I should video mine, will prob do it tomorrow    Between 1st and 3rd, you could fit another two gears. That is how loose and wobbly it is   horrible:(
