Hello All,

I'm relatively new here but I've been looking around and can't find an answer to my question.
I have a 1996 Series 2 R33 GTS25T i got a KKR 480 turbo from a buddy for less than $180 brand new;
(He totaled his car needed money to get a new one, that's the reason for being cheap) anyways; I'm curious if when
i do swap the turbos will i need to do anything as far as injectors go? I'm putting in new spark plugs this weekend.

I have all the supporting turbo mods
~3" catback exhaust
~Blitz FMIC
~HKS cold air intake
~Greddy BOV

Right now i'm running stock RB25 injectors and coilpacks.
I plan on upgrading these but at the moment i'm saving my money for a proper Garrett or Turbonetics turbo.
I'm also aware that i should upgrade these before i purchase the new big turbo but i'm just wondering if
i can run this small KKR480 off the stock injection and ignition system.

Any help is appreciated.
Cheers!

Okay,

I figured i'd need one of those with a larger turbo;
Yes i'm aware they aren't very reputable or well liked but it's larger than the standard
and i couldnt pass up the deal for how cheap it was brand spanking new.

But the injectors should be okay then?

Thanks for the help Zebra!
Much appreciated man

You're best of leaving it alone to be honest. I know it's not what you wanted to hear but you're going to ruin the car that way. Sell the 480 on eBay or something and use that money to buy a nistune or Powerfc Ecu and go from there.

Also ditch the atmo blow off valve for a standard one because the stock Ecu uses the airflow meter

he doesn't need to ditch the BOV for a standard one...unless he lives in certain ozzy states? it just runs richer for that split second you are changing gears with a atmo BOV.

And potentially like crap at idle as air is drawn in through the bov.

It's great that you're atmo bob works for you, but along with being a cop magnet in Australia, they cause heaps of headaches for guys, and for what gain?

I would rather keep the stock turbo, that KKR 480 dim sim special turbo would lunch itself before the stock one would..

If you're on a budget, save your dollars for a Hypergear High Flowed unit... it will save you from heartache.

BOVs are gay...

just use the stock one, or no BOV :)

lol yep totally gay...so many people hate them....well Australians seem to....the rest of the world doesn't have a problem. :rolleyes:

and no bov just means the air gets measured twice, once on the way in and once on the way out by the AFM.

bov don't leak at idle...and if they do they are either rooted of spring pressure is too slack.

Guys, i live in Japan where it's considered gay if you're not running a BOV lol but i appreciate the help and the OEM turbo is dead. I bought that KKR knowing it was shit but it was also dirt cheap and will do the job until i can buy a proper one.

Anyone happen to know how long of lines i need? I wanto to switch to braided lines now while im in there but not sure what lengths i need.

Again, all the help (and criticism) is appreciated.

Thanks guys!

just buy the Kando kits on eBay, they fit great + super cheap!

Orido's RIDOX Supra doesn't have a BOV and it sounds tits!

Umm, sorry to rain on your parade but many OEM BOV's are designed to leak at idle. Check out the little hole in the GTS-t BOV next time you see one.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      V35 Overheat + Coolant Boil & Overflow + Engine not Starting

      By carnoobb · Posted

      Hey all, my 2004 Nissan Skyline 350GT overheated the other day with coolant boiling and leaking out of the coolant reservoir when I was parking. So today, I started it up again just to see if it was a thermostat/head gasket issue. After about 20 mins of running, temps were normal again, no coolant was leaking out and the upper reservoir hose was warm but my engine suddenly cut off. I checked the oil dipstick and cap when it was running and there was no white foamy residue and the exhaust did not have white smoke. I tried starting up the car again but it would only crank, similar to when I had a camshaft sensor issue just that now there’s no check engine light on the dash. Any ideas? Unfortunately I don’t have an OBD2 that can read the Nissan's programme.

      Rb head oil drain dimensions

      By Papichulo96 · Posted

      Bump on this to not make another post, had a ‘head drain’ leak on me and have the engine out as we speak. Planning on just putting a new freeze plug back in , plug the tapped holes and just be done with that headache.    Now I still want to relieve pressure to allow oil to pass down the blocks returns easier. I’ve seen catch cans with multiple vents help folks with this issue on this forum.  I’m wanting to make my own. I have some pictures here of my setup if anyone can help how I should plumb and design the catch can I would deeply appreciate it !   rb25 Oil upgrades: 1.0mm restrictor n1 pump/billet gears extended crank collar  extended sump with trap doors/w welded fitting

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The Frenchy's kit is the way to go forward. A modern compressor that weighs about 1/2 as much, is at least twice as efficient, and will do a good job on R134a. And of course the kit has everything else you need to connect it up and have it work properly.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By Zabuza · Posted

      Hey all , I am in the process of having the AC system in my r32 GTST converted from r12 to r134a and I’m being told my compressor has gone bad and I will need a new one. I was wondering if anybody has any suggestions for what is the best route to go aside from dropping $1500 on a new oem one? I did see that Frenchy’s performance garage offers a kit to mount a Toyota compressor, has anybody actually used this kit on their car? Or is there anywhere I could purchase just a clutch? Any help is appreciated.
