my xr6 turbo has a stock gt35/40 turbo. even though its running only 5.6psi of boost, and has a 4l 6 cylinder engine, and it doesn't lag one bit.

however on an r33 with only basic mods i think you will find there to be quite alot of lag if you want to run higher boost levels.

"The GT3540R core swap is about a 6 hour job, where adaptors plates need to be welded and machined and tapped to the turbine housing, and some extensive machining and modification is required.

The GT35R Conversion - Rated between 600 & 650 using customers housings.

Well thank you for clearing it up.

Now please extrapolate on how it spools..........

A 'real' GT35r .7 comp .63 turbine I would expect to be all in by 4000 on an rb25. How does yours compare?

Yeh i would say u be just about spot on with all hell breaking lose at 4000rpm. Needs to have full tune in 1000km's time and then i will be increasing boost to see what it can pull. Yeh guys that built motor were quite surprised at its response. They thought it would be much laggier (pulled 187rwkw's @ 3-4psi on a dyno run done while they were giving it a mild tune and bedding rings - running stock injectors and gtr pump + fuel reg)

Will post up a dyno chart for sure once its been fully tuned and boosted.

So its 3-4psi @ 4000rpm?

Dont know how hell breaks loose when its really not even doing anything

I think once more boost is put in you'll find that it wont actually be the same as 3-4psi that you have now

No its running 8psi at the moment and yeh its doing plently...doesnt throw you back in ur seat but its more of a consistant build up which is why it feels like it has no lag at all We'll see how it goes with a bit more boost but want to change injectors and fuel pump before that.

Consider the GT3540 .63? I'm sure SAU needs a guineepig. ;)

Looks like it has already been done....

~ 450 hp @ 17psi

~ 480 hp @ 19psi

Not sure about response as no graphs as yet.

Cheers.

I'd be looking real close at the GT35R/GT3582R turbine map and note the total mass flow .

There are some GT35R "Hi Flows" getting around but not my whissle to blow . Search GCG or Full Race Motorsport in US under GT3567R . HKS is supposed to have an experimental version of the GT35R as well .

Just as food for thought , I've been told that even std GT35R's can bend turbine shafts if pushed really hard . Using greater capacity (and diametre) compressors is not going to improve reliability . The TO4Z uses the larger shaft (and bearing pack) which survives pretty well and is the same effective guts as larger GT37R/40R/42R/T51R etc . People need to realise that the GT35R is as large in the wheels department as the basic GT25BB centre section gets , in fact the compressor end part of the shaft is a little larger than most GT25BB turbine shafts .

My ideas only but the GT35R would have been better with a smaller trim compressor like the HKS only GT3040R or GT3240R uses . Better to give the turbine less load to push against than to speed up the exhaust gasses (via smaller AR housing passages) which limits total exhaust flow .

Someone else mentioned a TO4 Hi Flowed with a GT35R cartridge . This has been done in the US and gets you a TO4 exhaust housing instead of Garretts native GT35 housings . Possibly reprofiled TO4 "O" trim housings . Depending on what comp cover the "TO4" had it could be profile machined to suit the 82mm GT40 compressor . There is a cover that suits the TO4E backplate already so machined .

Someone mentioned the GT3071R , this med sized animal can churn on paper ~ 440Hp worth of air - provided the engine is modified and tuned to do it properly . At least its turbine and compressor are large trim (84 and 56) and the wheel diametre ratio is good . You could look at it as a GT2835 with a smidge more turbine because thats what it is .

Cheers A .

My guess is not tuned properly or non genuine turbo or screwed engine. I run 0.82 on my stock fj20 at it sees 10psi at about 2500rpm and full boost at ~4500 as mentioned before. Ive seen an rb25 on the same dyno as mine (pits matt spry) with 3540 0.82 and by 4000rpm on had 14 psi adn was beautiful to drive, though not a gcg highflow...but much more powerful.

had a GT3540 0.82 on a standard RB25 with fuel support mods only and Link ECU.

12psi boost by 4900 rpm. Very laggy on the road. Horrible to drive with on/off power extremes.

yuch

Is the numbers your quoting on a dyno or on the street?

There is a massive difference between loading a car up on a dyno and getting boost to come in super early in 4th...

As opposed to 60-140km/h say on the street which see's an un-loaded 2nd and semi-3rd.

On the street a .82 GT35 i would fully expect to be in around 4700-5000rpm

Shit me, I find the 3540's laggy on xr6T with all the mods and remember they have indepandant cam timing (on the BF's). Thats not including the nizpro intake manifold casue its awesome for response. Its going to be laggy as hell on a 25. I would think 12psi by 5000rpm at the earliest.

Thats pretty awesome response, almost unbelievable as a mates S15 I drove didn't even spool that well on the stock turbo. :P

Even on the RB30DET's you only see 5psi by 3000rpm and then ~3600rpm or so what ever boost you throw at it.

But then again boost is a measure of inlet restriction.

its no where near that...as I said before my 3540 hits 15psi at 4600rpm. 12psi at 4250rpm, and thats with the .82exh housing.

On dyno and street in 4th . To tell you the truth, I dont really know when it comes in by on the street in the first 3 gears, i dont have time to see as it just flies through the revs so thats why i only know in 4th gear. Apologies to those who were confused. I will mention quoted figures are in fourth :D

But the person wants to know whether its big lag, I dont think so. Its laggy, but not big laggy and its nice* to drive on the street bt 2-3000rpm.

*Nice may not be nice to you :)

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
