Hey everyone!I own an R32 GTR with rebuilt engine.It consists of prepped and balanced rodswith ARP 2000 rod bolts,R33GTR crank,aries pistons,ACL race bearings,metal head gasket,HKS/ARP head studs,port and polished head,1mm over-sized stainless exhaust valves,N1 oil pump,cam gears,pod filters and nismo dump pipes and 3 1/2 exhaust.looking to make 450-500rwhp.Is it achievable reliably with this engine build and what turbos do you recommend?I only want it for street and it has only 5000km since rebuild.Preferably twins to bolt up to nismo dump pipes but if i have to go single.........Any help would be great.Thanks guys/girls.

Why would you say a t04z if he wants approx 350rwkw.

Overkill, even when he says he would prefer twins.

Anyway, have a look here (its in the sticky thread aswell)

How about Garrett GT2860R 707160-5 lowmounts, bolt on and the price is right

I got 406rwhp on an internally stock RB26 only restricted by fuel and common sense (dont want to do the rebuild just yet)

after reviewing the suggested reading material check out the sticky :Rb26 Turbo Upgrade, All Dyno Results

Good luck :P

I'm also in this boat of trying to choose a turbo for my build...HKS is out of the question simply because of the cost, too rich for my blood. The GT2860R's are a great alternative and would pretty much meet most people goals...

But I cant help but think if the better, more expandable choice would be the GT3071R's. 2 of these bad boys would do wonders...what do you guys think?

The 3071 may be a little too big on the trim side so here is another alternative but still bigger than the GT2860R...Thoughts?

Hey Guys

The most common upgrade we see it the 707160-5 Upgrades, but there is also a -10 available which has the same specifications as the GT-RS from HKS.

The GT3071R would be ideal, more so in a High Mount setup, as they are comparable to the 2835R from HKS

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
