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

    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
