300z's are pretty small....Maybe a little bit smaller than the t25....if you're trying to keep your A/C, its not always the size...if youre doing the homemade setup, the hf manifold isnt designed to get around a/c....(Im assuming its for a d-series.) but good luck..

How about a one turbo from a Twin Turbo 3000 GT? also a 97 Saab T25 is really small. I have seen on the new TT volvo's have stupidly small turbo's!

kkk03 out of an Audi is very small (smaller then a T25, I believe). If you only want to keep your AC, it is easier to just buy a manifold that allows you to keep your AC rather then buy a small turbo, and having to rig up a manifold for it.

Look for a Dodge Sprint 1.3L I think it has T2 and that snail is small as hell. Otherwise, try a T25 or a t3.

Any IHI RHB5 that comes out of a Probe GT, Mazda 323 GTX, or 626 GT will be tiny. Here's mine:


That's a CD for size comparason... The inlet and exducer on the compressor is a whopping 37mm ID.

I have one of those I'm not going to use. Its in really good condition if anybody wants to make an offer.

rbh5 vj11 I think.

Oh and I have 2 different exhaust housings for it. Stock square flange and a rectangular flange that should bold up to a t-3 flange.

I have the same turbo in my garage...did yours come wiht the stock downpipe? thats the only thing (besides manifold) stopping me from trying it on my crx...i am just absolutly (sp?) clueless as to wear to get one rather than buying one...i want to get the flange and weld a d/p on, but i dont know where to get one...i've looked around and can only find t25's or other popular turbo's...anyone know? also, where do i get one of those adaptor plates for the manifold? thanks!

I'm not sure how much of a difference that turbo is going to make for you in regard to keeping your a/c. I have a T3 on a Greddy manifold, which moves the turbo closer to the passenger side and after getting it on there, I realized there was NONONO way I was going to keep my a/c. I'm from florida, but going to school in Oregon, so I really wanted to keep it for when I drive home next summer, or when I finish school, but it just wasn't gonna happen...since your using the HF manny, the turbo will be closer to the a/c then on my car(93 civic ex coupe) so, any gain from a smaller turbo will probably be lost.
I never wanted to hear it, myself, but...Just lose the a/c and get a 3" downpipe, too...you'll learn to savor rolling with the windows down

To make a long story short, he accused me of things that were not true and totally unfounded, harassed me via email (his email was {my name}sux@yahoo.com), and when I did a whois on his old site http://www.dmoore.com , and emailed him his phone # and street addresss telling him to stop with the bullshit because I knew it was him, he posted it on a board saying that I was spreading his own info around (go figure). He's very immature, can't handle the fact that I owned him left and right and saw through his thin veil, has deep rooted psychological problems that stem from the fact that he needs to bag on others (kinda contradictory here, eh? ) to raise his self- esteem, and is a general grade A #1 *******.

*edit- Hm... seems he sold his domain name to some other David Moore...
