hey gucio,

you have a few opinions the cheapest one is

A) buy a stock rb25 turbo (from an r33 or r34) they are a direct bolt on if you have the later model waterlines, you need to an rb25 outlet elbo too as the 20 is too small

cost anywhere from $300 to $500 (depend model and km)

Then you have the aftermarket opinions;

Most common is the HKS GT seriers, being GT2530, Gt2535, Gt2540;

They are all bolt-on; cost anywhere from $1,000 to about $1,700.

Im not sure where u could findone in perth, i guess just check the forsale section, they are always for sale in japan (could get one for as cheap as $1200)

Hope this helps-

Michael

Cheers mate

I have found a R34 turbo so hopefully that will all fit up

What do you mean later model waterline?

I have 1989 model so does that mean that the water lines will not fit?

Yeah already tried the Popstick Idea!! Thanks :O

Cheers

Well i have an rb20 turbo on my r33, and when i went to swap it with an rb25 turbo, i found that the oil lines fit but the water lines didnt fit, i then found out that the later model water lines from an rb20 would fit but im not sure what year etc, are the later models.

Guess the best way to try and see if it fits or not is just to install the turbo (not a very hard job,just takes abit of time) but if it doesnt fit in the end it just becomes a pain in the ass putting everything back :D

    • yeah I've never understood that either.... And to answer an earlier question, I write the date on open bottles and throw them if more than 12 months old (which they almost always are, because I don't need to bleed them unless I'm changing lines/calipers etc in between)
    • Nah, the one that hit the boot was a big steel locker, around 6 foot height, 4 foot wide and 2 foot deep, empty it weighs about 15kg and had about that amount of stuff in it The photo didn't give a good representation of the actual damage, the large ding on the passenger side was about a inch deep, the one on the driver was about 1/2 inch deep, right on the curve, where the inner boot frame doesn't let you get behind it with a dolly Basically the same issue with getting behind the damage on the centre of the boot We could have filled it all with bog, but my OCD would be triggered every time I looked at it, knowing what hides beneath  As for the locker, I did get the shits with it and put it in the scap metal bin, but, I pulled it out and it is now sitting in the garage at home full of car servicing stuff, cleaning gear and random tools, it's going to pay for it's indiscretions
    • Whilst I typically don't cheap out on things, if I can save some money, like $1000, on a clean straight panel, that gives me $1000 to spend on other stuff, basically free money really 🤔 🤣
    • Is the toolbox that damaged the boot seal the same item that fell on the car during the storm a while back?
    • Who are you to deny yourself? I’ve said this many times to myself and apart from getting what I really want, I go quiet for a while whilst working out what I just did to my savings and how will I afford what it cost, then, next payday…
