Any one have Gary’s mobile number? would be much appreciated...

Thanks

Lee

Another PM reply sent. I reply to EVERY single PM, eventually. I get 30 or so PM's every day, so obviously I can't reply instantly to every one.

:P cheers :D

Hi Lee, sorry that the PM inbox was full, I received more than 100 PM's over the weekend. The turbo for high flowing had a cracked turbine cover. I have been searching for a replacement, success today, one is one its way to GCG.

:( cheers :D

SWEET AS!!

thanks for the update Gary...

When do you plan a NEO GP buy?

Do you have any info on the NEO Turbo?

Does it come on boost earlier, later or the same as stock?

Std NEO has nice low down torque & am not real keen on loosing that.

I don't have a Neo turbo to exchange, if you can find me one for a decent price, then I will organise the Group Buy.

The Neo turbo has a larger turbine cover (same compressor) as the RB25DET (non Neo). Hence it is slightly slower to build boost, but it gives around 10 rwkw more max power.

My R34GTT had more power everywhere (idle to redline) with the GCG ball bearing high flow on it than when it was stock standard, That was with 98 ron fuel, using 100 ron fuel would improve that even more because I can add a fair bit more ignition advance.

I tuned an R34GTT with a GT30 last week and improved the 1 bar boost from 4,500 rpm to 3,800 rpm. So, as usual, it comes down to tuning.

:) cheers :O

Thanks for the info, are there any disadvantages with hi-flowing compared to changing turbo outright?

Seems to be some varing opinions on hi-flowing.

Seems to be some varing opinions on hi-flowing.

The big advantages of a GCG ball bearing high flow;

1. Fits back on exactly as it came off, you don't have to make parts, buy parts or pay for parts. All the necessary gaskets and seals come with the turbo. Pay $1750 and that's it, fit it and tune for it.

2. The result is well known, stick some cams with the high flow, decent FMIC, injectors, fuel pump and 3" exhaust and you will get 265 rwkw if it is tuned correctly

3. More power than standard everywhere, that's from idle to redline. You have to be very good at choosing turbos to duplicate that.

4. Legal, not defects for fitting a high flow, looks exactly the same as a standard turbo.

5. It's a ball bearing water cooled core (not a plain bearing, oil cooled core).

The advantages of an aftermarket (replacement turbo);

1. Any power output you like, trade off response and lag to max power to whatever level you want

2. All price ranges, plain bearing oil cooled turbos are cheaper than high flows

3. Cheap, second hand turbos are always available

4. High mount, external wastegate whatever you want/can afford

5. No guaranteed result, if you choose right you will get a good result, if you choose wrong you won't

As they say horses for courses, if you are after a simple bolt, legal, no more to do solution and your power target is up to 265 rwkw then you can't beat a high flow.

:( cheers :no:

Hmmm, thanks for info! Might have to start takin' the wife out for tea! :(

Did the $1750 include feight there & back or just back or no freight included?

Freight is included

:( PM Sent

EDIT!!

In box full.......

so i'll just post here......

Any Updates Gary!!!

Man... 6 weeks and counting.....

he he he you said a week in orginal post....

hmmm... being patient but 6 weeks is still a very long time......

sorry to keep bugging you but i hope you know what i'm feelin here.

Oh well... Waiting on your reply...

Thanks

LEE

PM Sent, I am sorry for the protracted delay. There are 2 turbos in the exchange program, one hasn’t come back for 6 weeks. The guy hasn’t removed the exchange turbo from the car yet and he already has the high flow. This has taken one turbo out of the rotation.

Unfortunately the other turbo that came back on exchange had a problem. It had a cracked turbine cover and I have been searching for a replacement for 4 weeks. I finally found one yesterday and GCG did the machining last night. So Jamex will be sending it out to you tomorrow, it will go Priority, so you should get it Friday.

Once again I apologise for the delay.

:D cheers :)

Any luck with finding an r34 turbo to start the next group buy SK???

I have done a couple of high flow R34GTT turbos for guys, there is one at GCG right now as it happens. But they have supplied the turbo for high flowing. When I find one I will start a new Group Buy as I have done for the R32GTST high flows.

:blink: cheers :D

:sleep: i got my turbo to day!!!

i took a while but...

Oh well you get that....

i cant wait to put it on!!

Thanks Heaps Gary....

Sorry about the delay, I ran out of exchange turbos

Let me know how it goes for your.

:P cheers :)

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
