Since this forum has been around for about 8 years, a reply like this is not really funny coming from someone like yourself.

The poor dude needs some direction....

Enough of the bullshit...

Mate try and keep these turbos for another project and look into something more appropriate for your setup.... (or sell them)

The RB25 engine has been known to handle 300rwkw but its all in the tune and the parts being used.... Some people claim 450+ kw from a stock RB25.... somtimes i think about getting one and seeing just how far it can go just for kicks and giggles but been too busy these days...

Build it right and it should live at 280kw at wheels for a very long time....

BTW the mafia's comment made me LOL hard :) (but i am sure he meant duct tape)

good luck, shoot me a pm when you get sick of bein flamed for bein a newby...... even I was one of those here once apon a time....

It was in one thread about another problem, neat and tidy. I wasn't actually having a go at the guy, it just seemed the attitude he got from others wasn't helping. I don't know the answer to his second question and his first question isn't going to take a short response. It also isn't worded right, boost is not equal to power.

Had I not said he was being trolled, or you guys didn't jump in on this, he probably would have believed his turbos are capable of safely pushing 45psi.

Matter of the fact is, he was being trolled by other members, I merely warned him of it and why it was happening.

To attempt to answer his questions;

It all depends on what turbo you are running on your car. An example is if you were to run a GT3582r on your car and push 25psi. It may very well run nice and safe for a while and make some healthy power. If you got a bigger turbo, say a GT40, and ran 25psi off that turbo, chances are you will pop your engine. There is no direct figure. People often say don't set your self a PSI level, or a rwkw figure but I think setting a target rwkw figure can help you when searching for parts. If you want about 220 - 250rwkw with close to stock response you can get a highflow, injectors, ECU, exhaust, intercooler and AFM. Run about 14psi and she will be happy. My old highflow made 225rwkw on 13psi on a very conservative tune. With my setup, I should be pushing >300rwkw but the dyno shows otherwise. Its not all about boost, or one part in particular. Its all clock work. Every gear, every part, every component from the filter you run to the tip if your exhaust will affect the power you make.

See when I'm not on my phone I can give a better response.

As for your second question, those turbos will not handle 40psi safely. Free boost them, sure you might hit 40psi but....

As said. All about the tune :)

Lithiums RB25 had 300kw with 17/18psi for over 100,000km. Longer than the car had standard power. So its definitely doable.

They are pretty tough motors. Just be nice(ish) to them and have a safe tune.

      Hey was wondering if you ended up installing the R33 GTR speed sensor - I found one too and wanted to confirm it's a direct swap into the R34 6 speed?

      I need more than help to finish my R33

      By marni · Posted

      Hi all,   I’ve got the biggest lot of problems with my R33 GTS-T   It was a freshly rebuilt 25th anniversary RB25DET (plastic cas, neo cams) probably 6 years ago now   The engine was running so well but I fkd up badly and trusted someone I’d known for 10 years that was well known around Plazmaman for his welding and fab work. I added a lovely photo of some of his previous work. Not sure why my car was worked on by whoever did this shit     I’m normally someone who would never open myself up to something like this, I still can’t believe I did it. Trusting him literally fkd it all up for me. Everything has been a struggle, like it’s almost been 6 years that’s how much I’ve just on and off been trying to work it all out.    All I wanted was a car that danced down low, like full boost from around 3~3500rpm to redline, don’t really care what power it puts down (if it ever does) but I just wanted it to be quick to get on it.    He recommended the turbo to get, I picked Hypergear but he told me to get the front 4” with a T4 and 0.68 rear housing.    I was expecting all these beautiful welds, tidy fab work and paid for it to be ready to go to a tuner when I got it back.    I got a car back that was an absolute mess, I actually couldn’t believe it was my car anymore. I don’t think you could even call what he did welds, they’re disgusting.    So I stripped everything he touched off it and with every bolt I loosened it just got worse and worse.    I covered it and literally built and finished another car in the meantime but now it’s getting to the point where I really want my Skyline back.   Its a struggle because I paid him to do all this shit because I didn’t know how to and now I’ve had to try and figure it all out omg    Please excuse the bird shit horrible welds, I’ve got my show pony car and am so beyond dealing with this car I don’t even really care at this point.    If someone told me about what he did to my car I wouldn’t have believed them but it happened to me. It was unbelievable. He went missing, my car went missing, it came back missing parts, the straight af chassis rails bore the scars of being dragged up a trailer backwards, even the sandwich plate was bent. Everything was leaking and open to whatever fell into it, rounded off/ missing bolts, power steering oil and coolant everywhere, no gaskets, parts stolen off it, even managed to damage the sump pan.   Promised me he’d finish the car, knew what it meant to me, I paid him thousands and thousands just for him to trash it. He told me he was fully licensed and insured, come to find out he’d cancelled his ABN, so obviously no insurance. I had laid up insurance on the car and would’ve been covered but I was scared they would’ve written it off or because the business was no longer trading I’d still be liable.    He was supposed to:  New fully custom mild steam pipe exhaust manifold with turbo location moved from factory position to high forward mount. (I don’t know if it is a mild steam pipe, I’ve got a funny feeling the waste gate isn’t in a very good position and I don’t think the outlets off each cylinder are equal) 4” custom stainless steel dump with external gate (he re-plumbed it) Cut and shut OEM intake manifold with throttle reposition (I ended up doing the throttle reposition) Box in pod filter (left out) New 100cel catalytic converter (pretty sure it’s there but unsure if it’s 100cel) Front mount intercooler piping fabricated to suit (all smashed up and rusty holes where he was supposed to make it look standard where fmic piping passes through. I don’t even think my front bar is going to fit 🙄) Custom 5” intake pipe from pod to turbo (didn’t come with it so had to do something to make it work with the Z32 afm)   Engine: Full cylinder head service & machining  Brand new valves Precision upgraded spring kit Engine block honed New bearings  New piston rings  New ARP conrod bolt kit New ARP head studs Cometic head gasket VRS kit   ATR43SS2 ball bearing turbo 0.68 rear housing  Turbosmart 45mm external wastegate (got delivered to the fab bloke, I’ve got no idea what spring is in it, I’m assuming the one that came pre installed) Walbro 260 fuel pump  Nismo 740cc injectors (tested to 880) Spitfire coil packs GCG FMIC RB25DET manual 5 speed 4:11 rear diff   I’ve got an Apexi Power FC in it atm, I was hoping to just get it to operating temp to make sure everything was okay before towing to a tuner but it’s over-fuelling too much. I don’t think that’s going to happen so i think I’m going to get either a Link G4 or Haltech for it. What do you guys recommend? I can’t work out the power FC so just gonna give up on that one     It’s got an exhaust leak coming from somewhere I can’t see 🙄    The fuel pressure was steady but now it like drops from 40 to 20psi randomly (noticed this yesterday)    I’ll attach pics of the shit he put on my car and the engine bay now as it sits    I really just need some help, I need a tuner in Sydney I can trust, I’d like to be with the car while it’s being tuned if possible, I know it looks terrible but unfortunately I’ve just got to put up with it for now and fix the cosmetic stuff later   Do you guys think the manifolds are going to be okay? Or do I throw the exhaust manifold and try again?   I don’t even think these combinations are going to work tbh   I know everything I fitted was rated to be able to take at least 400kW but most rated higher    If you’ve gotten this far I really really appreciate it 🙏 I don’t mind if you trash me or the car, I made a rookie error and f**k I’ve paid for it. As you’ll see 🙄
