I vote for Hypergear Turbos, have used 3 of them myself. Tao @hypergear is quite active on these forums.

I would suggest getting the ball bearing option, day & night difference from the journal bearing.

Be aware that a Hypergear turbo is not really a direct replacement from an engine management point of view. They make more boost and flow than the R33 ECU will be happy with. Talk to Tao about your options to keep the new turbo not so far away from the capabilities of the stock turbo so the ECU doesn't shit itself.

Then just get a @Toshi remapped R33 ECU (yes it is possible, only very select people can do it) for 1bar boost, FMIC, stock injectors, stock MAF, better fuel pump etc.

Should give you about 190~210kW at the rears.

I have gotten contact with one who has a original Turbo, the rest of the engine is not original though. I have an Apexi ECU, biggee injectors and some stuff inside the engine.

Should have said so before. All our warnings and information about not going too big on the turbo can be ignored. A bigger turbo would be fine. Probably better to spend a bit more on something new rather than a stock ceramic time bomb.

Yeah but the thing is the car inspection does not like bigger turbo, i have an Garrett 34xx already but i want it to "look" original so it can pass inspection. So as soon as it has passed inspection i can swap back go the better turbo. 

 

So i wont boost it more than 0.8 and map it to as close to original as possible then have a map with the better stuff.

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
