Im considering upgrading turbo and doing some mild work to the engine.

Just wondering, if i just get a new turbo now, what would I be able to consistantly run as a daily drive, until I can afford internals?

The Car currently has:

3" All the way

FMIC

PFC

10psi

260rwhp stock turbo

Looking at getting HKS2835r Kit

What should I do to the engine first to make it more stable? I have NFI where to start??

Recommendations? Suggestions? etc.. Thanks in advance.

it depends on the motor condition, how hard you will drive it.. etc..

i've seen a 33 running ~410rwhp and its still living..

and then ive seen a ~350rwhp one go pop too..

do you have an aftermarket ecu? you will probably need one to tune it properly and safely too.

it says pfc..

i cant read at 6:23am, so nyeh!

for the upgrade you would probably need fmic, pfc, new fuel pump would be a good idea, possibly injectors, and a Z32 AFM..

but you have the pfc and fmic, so just look at the AFM, fuel pump, and pssibly injectors depending on high many horsies you want!

Nismo 550cc or 740cc Injectors

Z32 AFM

Apexi Pfc (or similar ecu)

Nismo Fuel Pump (or similar larger fuel pump)

Some Sort of Boost Controller

Heavy Duty Clutch

Aftermarket Rims (you cant get traction with 300rwhp+ unless you got some bigger than stock rubber)

Coilovers

im running 337rwhp @ 16psi on basicly the mods i have listen above (engine is stock/unopened), if you have the car tune with a good AFR 11/11.5 : 1 ; the engine should last untill you get the cash for a rebuild (but there are also the unknowned factors which can have blew a few peoples engine )

Good luck

p.s by hks gt2835 r do you mean gt2835 pro s?

I have just over 410rwhp on stock internals apart from cams and it is running fine with a knock reading that maxes out in the teens. There is also a guy in the east claiming to have run 596rwhp on stock internals.

i can pop stock turbo'd 25's :)

:)

here is the thread...it is a good laugh reading some of the posts. Starts at 498 and then I am sure in there somewhere it's 596rwhp with NOS.

Would you like the video clip of either runs.If you do send me an email address

The 502 Hp on 18 psi which i run 10.8 @ 129mph on pump fuel & Manual with MT slicks

The 591 was a run with 100 shot nitrous which i used for burnouts and f**king around and in the end i Bent a rod.but still lasted me around 8 months of stuffing around and all was done on pump fuel.

my New engine is making 707 rwhp but its a race motor with gt42r turbo

It certainly is a sh*t load of power through the standard internals. :)

Look. if you want power and lots more of it you must understand a simple rule.

More power breaks more things more often therefore power = money.

If you don't have the money to build a strong engine yet then you won't have the money to fix all the other things that big power will end up needing.

There are lots of guys who start off asking the wrong questions. Like " How much power can I make?".

Look at what you want to do with the car first, what is the direction yo want to go in etc.. After you do this you might even find the car you have is not the right starting point and another vehicle would do better.

As a daily driver ,and by that I mean giving it some on occasion and expecting the car to drive a substancial number of kms, you ought not to try and push the envelope on the stock internals much over 300. This is if you want to use the term 'low risk'. The 2835 can be tuned under this limit (as any turbo can be to some extent) with the down side being lag over the factory unit and ultimately a very modest improvement in top end. Cams would also help make the power earlier in the rpm range and with less boost required, all good to help the engine live longer. BUT why is the 2835 the turbo to have? What do you want to DO with the car?

Theres alot of SAU MEMBERS WHO WITNESSED THE POWER AND THE TRACK RUNS

as well as that ill sell you the bent rod for a hall of fame if u want it

And Yessss im the same guy

    • Hi everyone, I've been wrestling with this for a while now and have been trying to find out the cause. For context, the turbos used are Garrett 2860 -5s, the BOV is a BNR32 HKS SSQV IV kit, the car is currently tuned to ~470 whp on 17.5 psi. The car drives normally, pulls well when it doesn't happen, and I can replicate it fairly easily. It does not sound like turbo shuffle or flutter. The engine has only a thousand or so miles and has had this behavior since it was completed. After my engine was built for my R32 GTR, I noticed that the car now sometimes makes an air discharge sound on what appears to be positive boost pressure that sounds really similar to a BOV. I had thought that it was a BOV issue but even when replacing it with a brand new unit, the sound persisted. It seems like it's coming from the passenger side but I may be mistaken. The closest scenario I could find was this post here https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/ started by @yakshii and it sounds very similar. As in, at partial throttle once I reach positive boost I begin to hear the same psh psh psh psh psh sound like air is leaking somewhere when I keep the throttle in the same position. It most commonly happens in 4th gear at around 3-3.5k RPM and 5th gear around 2.5-3k RPM, which seems to coincide with normal positive boost thresholds. It might be similar to what @Austrian GTR mentioned about his own HKS SSQV. Notable difference would be that when he applies more throttle when it happens, it stops. In my scenario if I apply more throttle during this repeated psh psh psh sound, the cadence of the sound gets faster and louder rather than stopping. If I lift off slightly and apply throttle again, it will normally stop and pull without issue. I've checked all rubber couplers to ensure that they are tight, but have not gotten the opportunity to properly do a pressurized boost leak test. If anyone has had similar experiences or thoughts on what might be the cause, I'd be very keen to hear them. I also have a video of it happening from inside the cabin, if that would make it easier to understand: https://youtu.be/2zqZXcx8jbA
    • I'd want at least $40K for mine, but thats easy to say cos I'm not selling anyway.
    • That's incorrect. We have 4 seasons, consisting of pre winter, winter, post winter and a small glimpse of hope!
