Hey Guys,

I spoke with Stao from Hypergear for a turbo for my fairly stock RB30/25 and he sold me the ATR43 G2 with an .82 rear housing. So I went with it but after pulling the stock rb25 turbo, I am wondering i am going to get worth while gains.I see a lot of people putting ATR43 G3 on stock RB25's (with supporting mods). Am wondering if I am wasting my time fitting this turbo and should I be going for a G3?

GT30 on an RB30 would be quite fun. It would probly spool like a stock rb25 turbo on an rb25, but make power hehe.

Would the GT30 be a little on the small side though?

not quiet the same. stock 25 usually makes 12 odd psi by around 2500rpm i think. gt3076 on a 30det usually makes 1 bar by around 3500rpm. i wouldnt go any bigger for a street car

Wow that sucks. My GT30 makes 17psi earlier than that on a 25. lol

Go have a look @ the graph and see for yourself then :D

I cannot remember exactly, but its up and on early as!

Does taper off upper RPM, but that's to be expected as its making 330rwkw on PULP which is pretty much limits met

That is a pretty accurate description of what to expect. Cubic capacity gives a lot more torque at idle, turbo lights up early, and can blow hard to make a lot of stick. For road use the 0.82 housing is very good match, maybe a bit restrictive if you want to run for extended periods at high rpm ie. on the track. The GT3037 might be a superceded unit but it is a good thing.

i have driven al's car and I can tell you it is the most fun RB setup i have ever driven....

power everywhere! boost from like 2400 revs and just frys the tyres in any gear at any time.

I have a car that makes the same power as al's car (330 rwkw) out of a 25 and it's just a whole different ballgame. i wouldn't go any smaller.... but it's 1 KILLER setup

my GT35 on my 3L is that responsive, try 2500-3000 for a GT30

turbo not too small,

25/30, 330rwkw, 3076R.82 rear (atrG3 equiv)

Yeah i never meant it was too small as in the way the car drives, more like how the stock rb25 turbo is too small for that engine.

A .82 on an RB30 is awesome for drags and lurking on the street but i feel like the .82 would get a bit warm if you wanted to race it at full noise all the time. :)

That was a wicked launch. Hehe.

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
