HYBRID r33 fmic kit

[Carl H]

has anyone fitted this kit to an s13 with the r32 x member?from the pics ive seen online it doesnt look like it will fit in and allow the hood to close.my hood already hits teh stock ic piping, i cant imagine that this clears the hood.

Yeah, I have the kit on my car right now. It fits pretty well, although I did have to cut some of my hood bracing to get it to clear. It's a tight squeeze but it will go.

I posted some pics to:

ok.so it does fit, i didnt doubt that for a minute.does the hood clear it tho?im not too crazy about hacking up my hood.i do have the hood shimmed tho.

I had to cut my hood bracing to get it to fit. If you mounted your engine with the R32 crossmember, you'll probably have to do the same. It's a pretty tight squeeze.

YOU 'LL HAVE TO CUT YOUR HOOD, IF YOU USE THE R32 X-MEBMER ANYWAY.

what is you use the s13 hybrid kit on the r33 motor? how will that work out?

[PROJECTRB240SX]

YOU WILL HAVE TO GET A FRONT FACING UPPER PLENUM AND PROBABLY HAVE TO ADAPT ALITTLE BIT OF PIPING.

I used the Hybrid S14 kit on my S14 with the greddy plenum. I was able to get the hot side piping hooked up just by cutting the hot pipe in half, fits perfectly. The cold side I had to make myself becuase I wanted full 3". The Hybrid piping is a little less than 3". If you don't mind you can probably use some of the Hybrid piping on the cold side too.

I hear all this talk about the hybrid FMIC kit and it's great but, where can you buy it from? I searched around on ebay and i didnt find anything...

[NISMO_RB25]

good luck. there is one on Ebay, but it is in Australia. I looked everywhere for this kit, and I can't find any US vendors. wga240 was trying to work something out with powerdigger, but I haven't heard anything about it since then.

wga240, any updates?

We are still trying to setup something. In fact, we're hoping to fly the owner of Powerdigger over before too long and meet with him in person. However these things take time so it could be a while stll before anything is setup. The main problems are dealing with customs and the extra things that are required for their products if they are to be resold in the US by an official distributor. Our shop also is not a business yet...right now we just buy parts, fix up cars, and drive them ourselves

I do not have any of the kits in the shop right now. I can get you anything Powerdigger makes, but you can also order directly from them yourself. Either way it'd have to come over from Australia

We've got another RB20 coming in within a week or so, and will probably buy a few more FMIC kits when we start putting this motor in. We always buy in bulk to save money, so there will probably be a few kits sititng around in the shop for a while.

I'd suggest asking all the forum sponsors and advertisers if they carry them first. If none of them carry the ktis and you get in a pinch shoot me an email and I'll see what I can do to help out.

Roger, http://www.hybrid-power.com, is the owner. He's a really good guy. We are using his FMIC on our demo RB26 240SX.

I speak with him weekly, so if there is any info I can pass along, I will be happy to do so.

They are hoping to enter the US market very soon. I think their new line of turbo's, bolton SR20DET Turbos, should do very well.

Take care!

I have to agree Roger is an extremely nice guy, and his customer service is second to none.

I am very anxious to get a better glimpse at his new line of products. Right now I've got a printout of some of the new things he'll be selling, but it will be nice to see them in person. If they're anything like the quality of his intercoolers I'm sure they'll be an awesome product at an even better value

So has there been any progress in getting these Hybrid kits available over here. I'm soon to start my RB25 swap and will be needing one. The only kits I've found are on ebay, but the sellers are in Australia. Any help?
