Rb20 Turbo Install On Rb25

[hks33]

hey there sau,

On christmas eve recently installed a RB20 turbo onto my 96' Series II R33 (rb25det). I noticed there was a extra line coming off the compressor side of the turbo connected to the aculator hose which my old turbo did not have. I'm just wondering what to do with this line coming off the turbo (breather like hose). The turbocharger is installed and iam waiting on a elbow that connects to my FMIC piping so i can complete my installation. I disconnected the line from the aculator to the breather like nipple on the compressor side of the turbo and connected the aculator hose to the T piece running from my oem boost solenoid. Will upload some pictures if needed

Best regards chris

why would you convert to an rb20 turbo?

that nipple is for the wastegate actuator.

that nipple is for the wastegate actuator.

hey man thanks for your help. Strange because i didnt remember my 25 turbo being like that when i pulled it off, so what will connect to to the other side of the T piece when i pull the wastegate actuator line off?

Thanks again dude

well you just lost any value the car had left.

you can get 25 turbos for what, 150 odd.

putting a 20 turbo onto a 25, you've just lost over a grand on resale IMO as whoever buys it is getting a car that's worse than factory.

+1 ^^ I hope you tell who ever is buying it that it will have the RB20 turbo on the car.

You're assuming everyone knows what they are looking at.

I predict something like this.

Car advertised.

Knowledgeable person checks it out.

Knowledgeable person LOLS and then leaves.

Nub checks it out.

Nub takes it for test drive and drops a load in his jocks case he has previously only driven a Camry.

Nub happily hands over the readies not having a clue that it's got a smaller turbo.

Nub crashes the car 4 weeks later so is never the wiser.

Nub advertises the parted out wreck on SAU.

Nub sells "RB25" turbo only to have the buyer spaz out when they find out it's an RB20 turbo.

The circle of life is complete.

Nub claims insurance

Nub is told the car is modified and insurance is no longer valid.

Nub is innocently f**ked over.

The circle of life is complete.

Fixed.

Thats because on the rb25 instead of having the nipple on the turbo its on your intercooler piping so just block one of the nipples off and use either the one on your piping or the turbo to connect to the actuator.

hey there man,

so after i have connected the actuator to the nipple coming off the turbo your saying block one side of the T piece off that isnt going to be used, hence the bottom one that i currently have connected to the actuator?

[JonnoHR31]

leave the standard actuator setup and run that to the actuator like you did originally and block the hose on the comp housing

Fixed.

Insurers can only void the claim if it contributed to the accident. Eg you put a 1000hp supercharged v8 in your skyline and you tbone someone at a traffic light because you are a tard, unless the engine caused the accident (it didnt) they can't void your claim.
