Daveo,

I am really happy with it. I have my tune perfect now and its making quite a lot of power at 14 psi it makes 204rwkw and I can't run anymore than that till I get new coilpacks. I have just ordered splitfires and will get them over the next few days. then 18psi will see 230rwkw. Last time it was on the dyno it made 220 on 17psi but was missfiring all over the place.

In short I have not had a single problem, drivability is great and the acceleration when it comes on boost is nothing short of JEEBUS!!!

Had my final power figure confirmed about a week ago and have been a bit laxzy at posting the results. at 19psi the car is making 241rwkw boost comes on strong at 4100 and pulls like a train.

I have major traction issues so the car does not feel any faster than it did at 210rwkw. I have an open wheeling diff and fairly narrow tyres 215's once boost comes in hard it just spins all the way to third and 100kmph. with better traction via lsd and wider tyres it should be fairly fast in a strait line.

I am not really interested in 1/4 times but will take it to the track when I have the time. (no track in canberra) for daily driving there is a really nice fat power band and it pulls really hard. even better on the twisty stuff :P

It has taken quite a bit of effort to get the car to this stage and had been rewarding. the little R32 is a nice little package now :)

Thanks all :P I will have to get a printout from autotech. I will be in there next week and willl get one. was in a hurry to get afr's checked and left without the results :)

Hope you don't mind waiting a week for the dyno sheet.

Excellent results mate

241rwkw on a RB20 is outstanding.

The best all rounder is the turbocharger that you have and its the reason we are 3 weeks behind in orders :no:

:laugh:

Well guys, I picked up mine from Slide whilst on another quick visit to the Gold Coast last week.

I'm going to take some pics of both the high flow and stocky so that you can have exact comparisons to look at, but I'm looking forward to getting my L28 finished so I can put the turbo through it's paces.

Cheers, D

yeah i agree, 241 with the highflow is awesome on a rb20... even if you are using 100+ octane fuel :(

I got the RB25 Maximum overside highflow withstage 3 wheel for my rb20 and im sad to say its just too large for the RB20 :sick: Slide has come to the rescue tho and offered to make it a normal sized RB25 highflow so i can habve some hope of spooling it up , Big thanks to Slide!

so yeah i'll post results when i get it going again

Mine is on order, along with the supporting mods sitting here, gtr injectors, Z32, big pump in the car and the other goodies...

cant wait to strap it all together YAY

When you say its too large where did you start seeing boost and where did it kick you in the back so to speak?

I'm trying to work out approx spool rates for the VG30 max oversize. Then I'll decide if its worth spending the extra 1k on a gt30 int gate. The time it takes to highflow the turbo will also determine if I go the slide or not.

If the cars going to be off the road for 3 weeks then I'll simply throw on a gt30 int gate. Unless Slide can sort out an exchange type setup, he sends I receive then I send my old one. :yes:

The 3lt will be able to spool anything slide can throw at it with a decent response time. I would ove to see one of these on an rb30.

What is your power goal cubes?

Power goal... 270rwkw minimum. The motors built for it, it has head work etc so all the little bits help. I plan to push 20-24psi if I run the gt30 or just 18-19 if I run the slide. But realistically I may end up having to wind the boost down a little with the gt30 as it may be a little too much for rwd.

The gt30r .82 will be all in by the low 3000's with good boost made by 2600.

I'd hope the slide would be in earlier which is why I wanted to know what you meant by too big. :yes:

Weighing up the options.

If the slide turbo is all in sub 3000's then 270rwkw + the slide will be a really good street setup.

If not I'll put up with the slight extra lag from the gt30 and be happier with a bit more top end power.

Its all an unknown.. :S

I just so happen to have a spare VG30 turbo :no:

It is not for sale only exchange for cases just like this :D

I do mention to everyone that lets me know that the max oversize is going onto a RB20 that the turbo is not designed for the 2Ltr and is much better suited to the RB25.

This is why in the highflow thread under "Highflows for RB20" only the "Straight RB25 Turbo Highflow" is offered.

The Straight RB25 Turbo Highflow is the best option for both RB20 and RB25

For power and response it is unbeatable for a bolt on replacement.

    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
