Hey guys,just got my internet connection,nice to c u all again

Im just not sure of what turbo to get.My current snail is already extracting 245hp on the wheels but we all want the power.I want like a drivable,wider power band turbo.

Im looking into a t3/t4,but i want to know other options.350hp-400hp would be nice,what do you think?

See'ya:burnout:

Adam has a T3/T4

u reckon it wouldnt get a rb25 past 330

Just to expand on the topic.

What is the best turbo to use, that has the same or better characteristics as the standard (low rpm boost, quick spool up, etc.) and makes bigger power and bigger torque? Hope you understand what i am trying to ask.

Or is it better just to hi-flow the standard turbo with a sierra-sierra combination on the compressor and exhaust sides?

We have a nice little bolt on Hybrid built up that flows 430hp @ 1 bar and is a straight fit internal gate job. I've got one on the Stagea and it spools up just as quick as the stocker. The good thing is its quite tractable on 7psi so you dont need to upgrade everything else at the same time. A point of reference the stock AFM maxxes out on a cold night on 7psi with this terb...

Thanks REV210!

How much rwkw (approx.) would this give me, at what psi?

How much torque can i expect (prefably as a % over stock turbo, eg: 45% greater torque)?

when this turbo upgrade is done, the car will have the following mods:

- Wolf3d V4 plug-in

- fmic

- cold-air intake (sealed box with 4" drain pipe from hole in front bar)

- Adjustable boost

- heavy duty ceramic/brass button clutch

- 3" exhaust system (from turbo, with hi-flow cat and straight through muffler.

- sard 550cc injectors

- Bosh fuel pump

- Bosh fuel regulator

- Ceramic coated: ic pipes, turbo housings, ex. manifold, dump/front pipe, etc)

Would i need any other mods?

Jash (GTAAH) Thanks!

How mush ($) am i looking at?

Is this a BB turbo?

Will it fit on the stock manifold?

Is it a hi-flowed stock turbo?

PLEASE refer to post addressed to REV210, and if possible kindly answer the questions listed, taking into consideration the mods already, or about to be fitted, on the car.

THANKS AGAIN

SHUTO-BOY

Sorry if i taken over your thread, but i think this type of information could also help you.

BTW with the first six mods listed (the rest are yet to be completed when i get the turbo) i am making 210rwkw with alot more low to mid range torque/drivadilty thanks to the wolf3d.

I would seriously consider any type on engine management b4 the turbo upgrade, just to get the mixtures right. I have already seen 2 R33 with blown engines, due to bigger turbo's and poor tunning. Just my 2c worth.

The complete replacement turb is a BB, new. Its custom made to our specs by Garrett and is a nice little unit. Needs custom oil and water lines but everything else bolts up.

We are looking into getting turbo's remanufactured but its proving to be quite an operation, apparently they can be done with BB Cores now, but they are 2200 ish which makes it not really worthwhile.

Jash if you can sell them for $2k even 2.2 like u said that maybe ok because the key here is they bolt up no intake and dump alterations which makes the whole operation so much cheaper :D

BTW id like to know wheel sizes of the BB Turb when u answer Al :D

Rev210 the 2530 will spool fast cause its a toy turbo. 2540 isnt far behind!

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
