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

    • Try looking at Eibacb/H&R springs Thats what Gary sourced for mine.
    • Hey y'all! I'm curious about how y'all go about widebodying your cars. I noticed that when running a square setup, my front wheels are a bit more tucked in than my rear wheels. Not by much, maybe 5-10mm. This leads me to wonder - when I widebody, should I use narrower front flares and wider rear flares? I found a set of 40mm rear flares that I really like, and was thinking of pairing them with some 18mm front flares, but I don't want the car to look strange. How have others done this? Note, I'm in a sedan. Thanks!
    • And if it was anything other than an auto tranny part, it might be a problem. But seeing as all auto trannies belong in the recycling bin, it's fine.
    • I have an R32 Fenix rad. It is good.
    • All the schemas I can see, indicate your typical setup of ATF 'cooler' (read: heat exchanger) in the bottom radiator tank..ie; https://nissan.epc-data.com/stagea/wgnc34/5413-rb25det/engine/214/ ...but I can prattle on a bit here. These trannies have a thermistor in the sump ~ the TCU reads this and 1. bumps the line pressure up when the ATF is 'cold' and 2. prevents the TC lockup clutch from operating, until the ATF comes up to minimum operating temp (keeps the ATF 'churning' through the TC so it heats up quicker) -- trigger point is around 55C. In these conditions, the engine coolant temperature rises faster than the ATF temperature, and also helps heat the ATF up, which is why it's best to think of the in radiator tank setup as a heat exchanger ; the heat can flow in both directions... ...with these trannies, the 'hot' ATF comes out the front banjo bolt, flows through the cooler/heat exchanger, and returns to the box  via the rear banjo bolt. This gets a mention, due to the wildly different opinions wrt running auto trans fluid coolers ~ do you bypass the in radiator tank altogether, or put the cooler inline with the in radiator tank system...and then, do you put the additional cooler before of after the in radiator tank system?... ....fact is the nominal engine operating temp (roughly 75C), happens to be the ideal temperature for the ATF used in these trannies as well (no surprises there), so for the in radiator tank system to actually 'cool' the ATF, the ATF temp has to be hotter than that...lets say 100C -- you've got 25C of 'excess' heat, (slowly) pumping into the 75C coolant. This part of the equation changes drastically, when you've got 100C ATF flowing through an air cooled radiator ; you can move a lot more excess heat, faster ~ it is possible to cool the ATF 'too much' as it were...(climate matters a lot)... ...in an 'ideal' setup, what you're really trying to control here, is flash heating of the ATF, primarily produced by the TC interface. In a perfect world, wrt auto trans oil cooling, you want a dedicated trans cooler with builtin thermostatic valving - they exist. These should be run inline and before the in radiator tank system ~ when 'cold' the valving bypasses the fin stack, allowing the ATF to flow direct to the in radiator tank heat exchanger, so it works 'as intended' with helping heat the ATF up. When 'hot' (iirc it was 50C threshold), the valving shuts forcing the ATF through the cooler fin stack, and onto the in radiator tank heat exchanger...and you sort of think of it as a 'thermal conditioner' of sorts...ie; if you did cool your ATF down to 65C, the coolant will add a little heat, otherwise it works as intended... ...the 'hot' ATF coming from the front bango bolt, is instantiated from the TC when in use, so all/any flash heated oil, flows to the fluid-to-air cooler first, and because of the greater heat differential, you can get rid of this heat fast. Just how big (BTU/h) this cooler needs to be to effectively dissipate this TC flash heat, is the charm...too many variables to discuss here, but I just wanted to point out the nitty-gritty of automatic trans fluid coolers ~ they're a different beastie to what most ppl think of when considering an 'oil cooler'... /3.5cents
