Rb25 Turbo Kit Help Making A Decsision.

[DaveO74]

Now your just showing off

[75coupe]

I could really make you cry at the savings Dave... dont tempt me I'll do it...

[DaveO74]

Stop now! I learnt long ago to stop counting the pennies when I comes to cars.

Don't forget dude I bought my s2 in 2000 back when they were the price of a new ss commo.

The money this has cost me over 11 years would have probably got me a nice 34r buy now.

[wolverine]

I bought my full kit for $1200 with a damaged turbine wheel.

$1100 for a new CHRA job done.

[75coupe]

damn thats an awesome price.... with the heat shield and all??? Im still searching for one of those damn it..

[wolverine]

It was only missing two (or was it four) frigging M10 14mm nuts. Not easy to find at short notice (high nickel content or whatever they should be) unless you want to pay Mitsubishi something like $20 each.

[75coupe]

yep Im jealous... I want the pretty blue anodized heat shield the kit comes with.... Dear Santa.....

[DaveO74]

Blue??? Nah man that's just the plastic cover, like contact for you books.

It's polished.

[75coupe]

oh... nice it'll match some other bits then all good...

[DJBarnstar]

Is this the right kit? Does it have everything to bolt straight on?

[75coupe]

it does, but its the KAI version not ProS

[DaveO74]

That is the new Kai version, on paper it is meant to be better but I don't think there has been many outstanding results with them.

I think 89CAL has one, flick him a pm and he should be able to tell you more about it.

CJMotor is where I ended up getting my pro s from, delivered in like 3 days. Nice easy transaction.

[fatz]

lol

What is the difference between the kai and ProS turbos?

[Mick_o]

The rear housing is different mate .68 for pro s which requires new dump and kai kit is .62 i think and Nissan factory dump pipe bolts up

Chloride??? I googled it and no luck?

ahhhhh I see

[DaveO74]

Chloride??? I googled it and no luck?

I fixed it, stupid iPhone.

CJMotors is what I typed but spell check got me.

[89CAL]

Both housings are 0.68 i think just the KAI comes with the Nissan dump style flange and anti surge slotted front cover. Ill have to double check the housing size, may be .64

Anyway:

If i had to do it again id go for a gtx3071 or a hypergear. don't get me wrong, its a great turbo if you want to make around 250rwkw, but its certainly not a replacement for the pro s. seems a bit like a gt-rs replacement really

255rwkw is the most I've heard of bolted to a neo with cams. when i sort a few things out ill probably send it off to Stao for a look, so it will probably end up a HKS/Hypergear hybrid and ill win this thread
