Hey Boys/Girls,

Question for you (if you got the time/knowledge 2 answer it)

I found myself a t04e turbo kit comes with hks manifold & wastegate

turbo spec is .5 a/r compressor, comp wheel ???& .63 exhaust housing, exhaust wheel is 56mm (so just under 2inch) The exhaust housing also has airearch imprinted on it.

How you reckon it will go on my r32 or even an r33

The manifold has a split pulse flange which i heard helps speed up spooling time hence decreasing a bit of lag...is this true?

Im also fitting 550cc injectors

& an os giken clutch.

The car currently is producing 162rkw withc FMIC & fuel pump from R33 GTR, HCR32 POWER FC & a few other things.

How do you think it will go?

P.S This turbo is a hks spec t04e turbo for the r32 gtst, so i cant see it goin to bad, i checked the spec off hks catalogue & the hks t04e kit i have & its identical.

Thanks Joe.

Yeah i have no doubts it will take me into the 200kw zone

the only problem im worried about is the spread of the power.

I mean its built for the road so i just dont want top end power which i think this setup will do hence killing all factor of mid end power.

But who am i kidding, can hks get their spec's wrong?

Worst thing about it when i spoke to a few people about the spec they said it was more like a t3/t04 hybrid, & have not seen another turbo with the same spec that ive got so i dont know what i expect to get.

Back in the early 90's hks never made there own turbos so they went to garrett & ask them to make a custom turbo for them, so thats why there are hks t04e's around.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      The car remains in paint jail. I am now pretty convinced that the whole "RB25 Airboxes are kinda limiting to ~300kw" could be a thing. Also saw a good video from Engine Masters: (Sorry for FB link) (https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=search&v=761771519471924&external_log_id=c10bcbb6-2c39-4ff3-9240-287e9921fde6&q=Cold Air Considerations) Where they tested Pod Filter sizes and kept adding bends to a LS3 on an Engine Dyno to find if bends caused power loss. It's a good video worth watching - They did lose ~25hp from making an intake which had 3x90's and a 120 degree. They only lost maybe 1hp with a basic 90. I feel that by sealing up my airbox I have: 1) Created the same restriction a stock airbox would have. 2) Created a very convoluted set of intake 'pipes' by forcing all the air through the ducts. So I am pretty confident I'll be going full circle and have a huge hot air intake pod and actually see a benefit. The air does *not* stay hot once it gets flowing, aided by the ducts, and the pod can then pull air from anywhere. All the posts of yore talk about the stock airbox costing 10-15kw at 300kw+ but you know what? I f**king would very much like that 10-15kw and I remember my own pod filter in engine bay experiences. Turns out the GTT Reo and Headlight brackets really don't allow you to mount GTR items, no matter what the internet says. Various brackets have had to be made up to actually make it fit right for the front bar. Also some idiot mounted a 3L Accusump right where the bumper wants to go, so that has had to be 'relocated' To where, I am still not sure, but it's supposedly mounted in the pictures and I can't see it.

      Factory oil temp sensor in a RS4V without gauges?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Sounds like the oil pressure light is wired into the oil temp sensor... As it warms up, resistance on temp sensor reduces, hence more current can flow and the dash light gets brighter.

      R34 GTT AC short cycling ? Normal behaviour?

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      If it's cold in summer, then no issue. If it's cutting out every few seconds and you're not reaching your target temp, then there's an issue. One could be the pressure switch and the other issue could be the temp probe inside the evaporator.
