Trust T618z Turbos

[SRB]

some1s offered a swap n i wanna ask u guys if anyone has had experiences with these etc. the engine has all the goods and retains standard capacity... motec etc etc

thanks.

[R31Nismoid]

swap for what?

if the 517z's were a laggy and peaky turbo, the bigger brother isnt gonna be any better

[SRB]

well i dont kno anything about these and what i have read is that they are capable of some serious hp. when would boost come on approx? hit full boost? etc i kno this will vary due to mods but lets say for a fairly modded gtr....

[Tommyk]

i would assume these to be around the 400hp each mark ?

if they are, then assume them to spool up @ full boost 1.3bar ? around the 4800-5000 rpm mark in 4th, if not later.

Which means you wont get full boost in 1st on a 2.6 rb. You will get full boost in 2nd at about 6500rpm, and maybe around the 5500rpm mark in 3rd

Try it and see how you go

y does everyone go for trust old skool turbo designs for?

hasnt anyone heard of "ball bearings" yet

trust are the lower class of turbos i reckon, and garrett stuff like the 2560r's etc are heaps better options than these sort of turbos.

trust stuff seems to be soo cheap and i wonder y

p.s. no this isnt a dig at mr mad, only the turbos he has mentioned

[SRB]

jus after opinions guys thanks!

On paper Trust turbs may not be the greatest things...but they certainly have the runs on the board, from circuit cars to drag cars.

The T618Z are the big daddy of the low mount world. Never seen/heard/read about them on a GTR though

[SRB]

so really the 2530 setup is more efficient and better than the t618z ye?

[R31Nismoid]

so is that the answer to the quesion i asked twice?

You HAVE 2530's ??? They are what your swapping for???

If so, then dont. t517z are more un-responsive than 2530, the 618's are gonna be worse again

Here's a trust dyno graph. Note that its says built engine which i think means a greedy 2.7lt kit

You have the best...why back trade...great street/circuit turbo...hell some really crazy guys use these in drag GTR's running low 10's....They have obviously lost their marbles.

[Roy]

Yeh, why run 10s with the 2530s when if you just bolted on the T618z you would easily run 9s, and be the first in Aus to do it with low mount turbos

Its his road car Roi Boi

why run 9's in a Nissan GTR when you run 7's in your twin T88 torana GTR

[Roy]

The only problem with 2530s is you cant get any gate action. 10s in any car is awesome, but even a 14 second car with a bit of gate action feels quick

[R31Nismoid]

That Chinese food over there is getting to ya

first he'd have to own a 7 sec twin T88 Torana

I like his chances of 9 second with T618z more :lol:
