i blew the stock ones so i went and bought atop condition set which were steel wheel and abit bigger

they have been in storage for ages so he part numbers are pretty much useless, tis is what gcg told me,

all i can say is that compared to the stock ones the front comp cover is the same size, but the wheel is about 5 cm bigger , the rear housing is a .63 item which is 1 size up from the standard one and the rear wheel is about 8 cm bigger that the stock one,

i pulled off the standard ones myself and installed the new ones doing nothing bodgy, and it always runs 12 psi, but for some reason it spools about 3500 rpm and doesnt really kick in until 6000rpm, the thrbos are rated at 350hp each but i really dont think that upgrading to this size over the stock ones would affct the lag issue from full boost at 3.5rpm to now 6000rpm, this is bullshit

the car has a cat back wiv guted cat and a fuel pump, still got stock front pipe and dumps and stock ecu....

the new turbos are pretty much the same if not abit bigger than n1 items.

could it be wastegate actuators or what??

the car used to go well before with the stock turbos but now it goes harder only over 5500 6000 rpm,

i didnt touch nothing on the timing side of things and all i did was remove turbs and replace.

all help appreciated

cheers

have you had the engine checked ( compession, leakdown) ? You may have stuffed bores from ceranic dust.

Not knowing exacly what turbos you have i wouldnt be able to tell you when a healthy engine would boost.

:)

Get a ruler out of your draw.

Measure 8cm's and add that onto the stock wheel size... you will soon realise that it cant possibly fit into a housing of that size.

So it kinda answers itself really, no need to get angry :)

You really need to have the turbos inspected IMO.

As wrxhoon said already

By what your saying, you have no idea what they are. So people can only offer random suggestions as without knowing what sort of turbos are on there, no-one can accurately say you actually have a problem or not. That might be exactly how those turbos work.

You cant accurately say otherwise if you think the rear wheel is approx 12cm in size as i would be exceptionally doubtful of that :rofl:

Also on that, changing turbos and still using:

Stock Pipes

Stock ECU

Stock Cam Gears

Really isnt going to help the situation either

there's a science to rear AR's fella as ina mathamatical calcualtion per CC of the engine , get this wrong and it will spool early for less peak power or larger power which comes on late like your stating ...

hey take it easy - I'm just trying to figure out how the wheels can be 5cm and 8cm LARGER than the originals and fit in the housings...

I think these measurements are actual sizes and not the increase in size(Bad Sentence Construction)

Also very rude to get a comeback of that nature to a response that was confused about the sentence.

You have been unlucky. I believe you could have the gt-rs turbos or -10 Garrett Turbos making it

a really laggy turbo set up. Now you need to get some dumps, and computer to get them to spool

earlier.

I may be wrong though.

I hope though you are gratefull and not come back like that at me. :)

What did you/they mean in saying the part numbers are useless? Useless as in they dont correspond to the actual specs of the turbos or useless as in they cant be seen/read?

I assume your wheel size comparo is meant to be millimetres and not cms as well?

i apoligize for the comment i made before and i got my measurements wrong.

VERY SORRY!!!!

the turbos are gcg built so i rang them up and and quoted the part numbers and they said they were old and wouldnt be able to track down 2 much about them

ive looked at a ruler and by goin off the standard ones i can say these figures are still a guess but more close to bieng the sizes i was trying 2 explain before

rear housing .63

rear wheel is around 10 to 15 mm bigger in total, so 5mm to 7.5mm from centre to end

front wheel is about 10mm bigger in total and same again, 5mm from centre 2 housing,

i really didnt think these sizes would increase the lag as it has,

compression is a healthy 150 dead even over all 6.

the best way for me 2 describe the way it drives is its really laggy in boost up till 9, 10 psi, then it starts taking off, but by the time it is mooving its on 5500, 6000 rpm, the turbos are making boost at 3500rpm 4000rpm but u cant feel the shit until 5500, 6000.

its like driving a s14 or s15 wiv the vct unplugged.. shit down low and then suddenly after a certian rev range off it goes.

i was inking maby it could be the computer, gone fully retarded and rich , coz its sucking some juice bad,

all help appreciated, sorry for comment b4 but he was bieng a smartass.

no he wasnt :P

have you had the GTR on a dyno to see afr's?

if so maybe print it up here for the Professors to scour over...........

i know this sounds stupid and i know its the dumbest thing i can do but i did it aniways just 2 see if it was running rich and retarted,

i pulled it off tap, and went for a drive, just feathering the pedal.

the thing is that i held it flat and its not pingin or nuthin, no afm cutout, but it still has the same shit response.and boost only hits in hard at teh same rpm as b4, no increase in downlow power.

i did this just 2 see if my theory was correct, i put it back 2 normal.

There is a Turbo set up with a wa fella on here, I forget the name...oh Chad Fletcher.(footballer) If it is really him

He has a N1GTR Motor in a 34gtt , he has boost coming in at around 5500RPM.Nismoid said it was because

the old N1 Turbo's are designed to spool up around there. The interesting thing is he hates this aswell.

The recommendations where to change the turbo's or get some dumps if i recall right. I suspect the units you might have bought are simmiler to these.

NI turbos will develop over 1 bar at 4,250 rpm if tuned correctly. As usual there are 3 things that he needs tot do..........tuning, tuning, tuning.

:) cheers :)

He had the old N1 turbo's these spool up at 5000RPM Plus. Yes the new N1 Turbo's spool alot earlier

as you have stated.

    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.  
    • For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!
    • Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
