Hey guys I have been searching and searching for the correct turbo to put on but cannot find it..

I have a rb25det, has your usual bolt ons but has stock internals..

I am looking for the best/quickest spooling turbo for skidding/drifting, I do not want to hi-flow the current as I am looking at going a 6boost top mounted setup with a external wastegate..

What would be the best turbo to run, the car is only driven 2-3 times a week but gets driven hard when it does.

Opinions on the GTX3076r,GT3076r and GT3071r?

There is a whole f**king thread dedicated to RB25 dyno results that is 53 pages long.

How about looking at that for a start and seeing some different results from other people's setups.

In the end the choice is yours personally anyway so someone could have an entirely different opinion on each turbo.

A turbo doesn't have to be that large for drifting/skidding so you wouldn't even need one as large as you mentioned because you want response.

Look through the RB25 turbo thread and guaranteed you will find something you like/want.

HKS GT-RS for 250-260rwkw perfect for drifting on 98.
300rwkw ++ on e85..

HKS 2835 PRO S FOR 280RWKW+

These two twos are the most responsive on the market for these power figures.
Overall awesome power curve aswell.

Jesse Streeter just sent me A GTRS Delivered for $2600.

Cheapest you'll find anywhere.

If you are going to be using it internally gated bolton turbo and expect the most response out of it I do recommend our ATR43SS1PU, this turbo performs the identical way as the standard 21U high flow, it makes 20psi by 3400RPM, which is your factory turbo's response that peeks around 310rwkws on E85 fuel or about 265rwkws on Pump.

But if you are only looking to keep it as a factory bolt on temporary terms and expect a huge jump in HP after external gate and high mount is installed, I would recommend our ATR43G4SAT turbo, This turbo has similar response to a 3076 that peeks 20psi by 3800RPM, capable of making around 312rwkws on pump 98 fuel using street legal return flow cooler, and good enough to peek 420rwkws on a high mount E85 setup.

Both turbos has detachable rear dump adaptor, so it can be high mounted or low mounted without too much trouble on the exhaust piping.

I've got a Oxford dictionary pages worth of dyno reading with different turbo combinations specifically engineered for a Rb25det engine, you are welcome to give me a ring to go through couple of more specific configurations for your needs.

if money is no problem, then GTX3076 will be a light switch at 4000rpm and will take you upto 400kw's, but silly not to get a hypergear, use the money saved for tyres...

      Do you plan on using 98 or e85?

      This should be pretty easy. 200rwkW is just about the max power out of an RB25 stock turbo. So, 12ish psi on a 2.5L. That boost limited mainly by the prospect of seeing the turbine in the cat after the smoke show. A steel wheeled equivalent would likely happily do ~220rwkW at something like 17 psi, where it would probably be bumping into the usual limits of such a sized turbo. These things have like a .48 rear. You will not need the 0.86 rear. The 0.64 will be fine. In fact, if you were looking at various mid-200rwkW options for RBs, most of them would be in a 0.64 rear. So, I think you will definitely want to be no bigger than that for a same sized but probably even more efficient (at making power) modern engine.

      Change the subframe bushes, transforms the car.

      For something a little more serious, Davinci Resolve is about the best there is for free video editors. No expiration dates or watermarks, completely free.

      Well, it's taken me until the last week of 2024 to actually do something on the Skyline but I consider it a good head start to 2025's efforts! I managed to justify (to myself anyway...) my purchase of the lift table. It made taking the rear subframe out a lot easier than it would have been without anyway! Everything is out and stripped down ready for a clean then powdercoating.  She's pretty grubby under there but pretty good condition for a 38 year old Japanese tin bucket. 12 years of zero street time have obviously helped that... I need to decide which of the factory suspension arms I will keep and replace so I only get what I'm keeping powdercoated.  Baby steps but it's a start!
