Yes rb25 turbos fit on rb20's im not too sure about power tho.

[DLuded]

i think the rb25 can produce roughly 180rwkw while the vg30 (300zx) can produce around 190-200rwkw

if you want something bigger then go the hks gt2530

stock rb25 turbo made 192rwkw @ 10 psi only+safc, or can be up to 210rwkw with pfc, still have a bit room to grow..., eg bump up an extra 1 or 2 psi.

That looks like power from a RB25det,the RB20 won't do that on a 25 turbs!!

235-250rwhp sounds about the norm,depending on dynos.

Oops... hehe... I'm blind.. didn't see the 'R32' part on first post.

My 32 has r33 turbo makes 172rwkw on 15psi with PFC, Apexi FMIC, turbo back exhaust, cold air intake and pod, cam gears.

So either this is the upper mark with r33 turbo, or something wrong with my car, but runs perfect..

hmmm well thanks all,

so basically with the mods i got plus computer and fuel pump i will be lookin at around the 180rwkw mark??????

Quincy maybe u should get another tuner!!!

Sorry 4 the hijack but does any1 know if an R34 turbo will max out at higher KW than an R33 turbo?

Cheers

Standard series 2 RB20s can make around 250rwhp with standard turbos on 1bar. With a FMIC + Full exhaust system of course... some on here have dyno sheets to prove this (posted recently).

Im guessing with a rb25 turbo you could make anywhere up to 270-280rwhp.

What are the HKS GT2530s good for hp wise? Can anyone recommend a turbo that will suit around 320rwhp? And how much wud this cost?

quincy you need to you your dump pipe.. your loosing power big time from the factory dumpipe/front pipe you'll have boost come on earlier and harder

rb25 turbo is a bit laggy on rb20's so i've found out i dont get full boost(10psi) untill 4000rpm.. bump that to 14psi and i dont get full boost untill 4300 so yer.. it gives the rb20 a nice strong topend which stock turbo lacks (pulls hard right to 8000rpm)

[jazza08]

That late??

The thing spools at like 2,500rpm on my dads r33 (full zorst, FMIC, 10psi)

Its the least laggy thing ive driven so i thought it wudnt be too bad if u put it on an rb20, well not 4,000rpm bad... i was thinkin full boost at like 3,700ishrpm (dependin on gear).

Good to know it pulls all the way to 8,000rpm not that u do that or anything hehe

[Wazz]

it loves 8000rpm but yer 10psi at 4000rpm bit of a doey bitch to drive.. but mind you its extremely smooth powerband
