I have read a couple of threads where people were asking which turbo on RB26 for street/strip. I told them we were currently fitting a GCG 35/66 SPL on a GTR and that i would post results.. The car is finished and has been Dynod, unfortunately it ran out of injector at 13 PSI ( SARD 650cc) to my amazement, but made 275kw on Unigroups dyno. I drove the car today for the first time and was blown away by the torque, the same if not less lag than the standard twins, comes on strong and stays on right through too 8000rpm.

Very impressive, can reccomend this upgrade for anyone who is looking for a very streetable single turbo.

Car should see well over 320kw with a bit more boost.

other mods include :

APEXI D-Jetro

Bosh 044 fuel pump

eBoost

custom 3" dump pipe

turbosmart 48mm wastegate

Hi flow cat into 4" exhaust.

Tomei Inlet and exhaust cam gears.

Thanks to unigroup for excellent tune and John for his patience.

ran out of fuel using 650cc's @ 275rwkw?

What went wrong?

Was it fuel pump or a fruited fuel reg or something?

650's should bring home mid high 300's :ermm:

seconded ..

294 rwkw here with 550cc and 044 pump..

think the injectors are trimmed to like 70 % and only reach about 90% duty ..

but yeah anything that spools up at the same or earlier than std turbos and produces more power would be a nice streetable setup.

No, pump is in, have been in contact with saard supplier, we all agree 650cc should be ample. possibly supplied wrong injector. They are sorting it out. But that was not the purpose of this thread.

Ah, that would explain it ;)

Cheers .

Would this turbo be similar to a trust t78-33d? Bigger or smaller..? I'm doing pretty much the same as you with a trust turbo, just wondering how laggy it would be. Sorry to hijack :D

my 2c

sorry to be negiative but it does seem like a very good upgrade in dollars for hp as i compare the reasults to a

r32gtr running r400 turbos (which are std size but stell wheeled)at 16psi

making ~390rwhp

r34gtr running std turbos 400rwhp

so its seem strange to me to go to such effort for 20rwhp ?????

when a small turbo upgrade of the low mounts can land you over 100rwhp more and no i'm not having a go at singles in general but this upgrade doesnt seem to give much gains per dollar.

pete

ps im running std r33 fuel pump at 530rwhp std fuel reg and running in the low 70% range most of the time at low 500rwhp

hey pete dont start the single vs twin debate again :P

hows your setup going anyways mate?

you missed my whole point cruiseliner

i use std or near std well tuned examples of gtr's to say why would you spend all that money, time and effort to gain 20rwkw if it makes it. Doesn't that seem a little silly waste of time and money. But this is only my opinion and i'm sure it a very nice gtr.

cruiseliner do you now understand what i was trying to say

as for mine is going like a stream train but the only issue i got is the new low temp thermostat and large greddy radiator are keep running temp to low for my liking and i will be going back to std thermostat. A running temp of 65 to 68deg is to low for me and is keeping the pfc in the cold water temp compensation tune(rich as). The question is how is your going put a final tune through it with some boost? Unfortaunately most of my time at the moment is going into project number to silvia drifter i'm building up.

pete

sorry if it seemed i was have a go at singles but the combo does seem worth time and effort for the results gained.

Yeah did that but i just don't like it that cold. All the production race guys i talked to believe the motor run best under full load (mean track work around 80-85deg) and i believe most oils and ecu as set this way for a reason. I think the low temp thermostat might work well will std cooling system but i found with the bigger radiator is just to cool for my liking.

pete

ps sorry for off topic comments

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By MBS206 · Posted

      When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By Rezz · Posted

      Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.

      If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
