What size are the standard turbos on the 300?

 

Also what are they on the 200sx s14?

 

and what is the maximum boost these two types of turbos can run???

 

Thanks in advance.

think they are t25 standard

300zx T25

200Sx T28

at a guess 18psi would be close to the line if not over it

Cool, well i've blown mine and my mechanic has a 200sx and said to put two of them on instead, just seeing if it was really worth it, might aswell as they are prob cheaper.

 

Cheers.

They do fit but need a shit load of fab work

In theory its quite easy, Ive done a few T25/T28 swaps on S13s. If the T25 is the same as the one on the S13 then you'll need to rotate the core (5 minute job) and buy an adaptor for the inlet pipe (If I remember right). They cost about £15 and should be available from someone on SXOC.co.uk. Try Bren at Apex Performance. Also one of the holes on the flange needs to be "slotted".. You get more power so worth the bit of work IMO. ;)

Not sure about the maximum boost but I was running 15psi regular with no problems on a standard S14 T28. i had it at 17psi a few times but not an a regulsr basis..

Stock Turbo's are TB22's which are a hybrid of the T25 with a smaller T2 exhaust turbine.

Damn I'm amazed the turbos on these are so small, very counter productive when running higher boost than standard as the small turbos will be so hot.

 

Wish I could afford to change them.

 

The turbo on my old car was a wonderful T4, what a sound!

A pair of S14 T28s (I've got one on my S13 :D running 15psi) would be the same though, not mirror images hehe like zed ones, so more fabrication then :p

So whats the easiest, without spending silly money, option for a more power turbo change then ?? :confused:

The problem is i've blow my turbos and was thinking of a cheap but better replacement.

 

hence the second hand S14 turbos.

 

Is there a better alternative?

 

or is the S14 turbo a good choice?

 

Custom fabrication isn't too much of a problem.

a pair of aftermarket tubs specific for the zed! LOL!

 

speak to our traders for options

Wait till you get the bill for it then, mega expensive is custom fab.

Yea that would be nice, i would love to ask Smithy to order me some "JWT 700" but at this current point in time i'm on a budget.

 

Insurance

Tax

Mot

Xbox 360 lol.

Xmas

 

expensive few months ahead. But at least now i know it's not my engine sigh of relief. lol.

TBH, a turbo upgrade isnt the sort of thing you want to be doing "on a budget"!

 

JWT500's may be a cheaper alternative than a pair of 700's tho!!

Spot on ;)

 

Nice pair of GReddy TD04's will come in cheaper as well and will produce 420 RWHP

Oh right, that may hurt then lol

 

but the mechanic i use is best mates with the blokes who owns power and performance which is a power flow dealer. So hopefully they should look after me :D

I could wait a few month until i get some wedge, the car currently spends more time off the road than on, lol.

 

Does anyone know much about the JWT 700bb's?

JWT's version of garretts "disco spud" isnt it? quite a big turbo that needs big supporting mods.

 

theres a few guys in the states running them now, not heard of anyone over here yet tho
