maybe the way the power delivery/rev limit? (engine design)

there must be a reason 2jzgte never been used in JGTC while rb26dett GTR win more than any other engine equiped car.

True, the RB is more of a rev-happy race engine, the 2JZ is a hi-po street engine, for a street driven car extra displacement is nice (hence the run on RB30 conv. atm).

I've picked my self up a VG30DET BB turbo with plans to get it highflowed by gcg later on down the track. Anything over 250rwkw I'd be happy with. :(

For now I will be bolting it on with an adj. FPR (maybe injectors depends on $$) to see what she gets.

I'm expecting around 210rwkw peak some where around 5500rpm. ;)

Unfortunately I can't spend money on the highflow at the moment as I need to get the suspension and diff sorted.

The subframe bushes are nackered as is the diff, it now some times breaks out in to a single spinner when jumping on the gas in second, if it doesn't do that it breaks out in to a nasty axle tramp due to the stuffed subframe bushes. :(

do you know how much one is looking at to get a stock Skyline turbo high-flowed Joel?

My Neo turbo also has the plastic impeller - I wonder what the cost would be to change it to a steel one?

It comes down to you get what you pay for. As usual. :(

A cheap bush style highflow is around the 1k mark.

A BB core highflow is always up around 2k. GCG charge around $1900.

GCG are fairly well proven to highflow a turbo that is reliable and doesn't pop, I'll spend my money with them.

I could do the GT30/35 external gate thing but honestly big gates hanging out the engine bay really make me paranoid.

Sambo, Its making 175rwkw at 4400rpm then peaks up to 176rwkw (wow) by 4800rpm then drops to 176rwkw by 4950rpm then tails off to ~130rwkw or something by 6000rpm.

The stock rb20det turbo is waaay to small for the rb30.

It peaks to 12psi as soon as boost is made then quickly tails off to 9psi, this is on the stock actuator pressure. So the peak figure is made on 9psi, not too bad for a little rb20det turbo. ;)

The Rb20DET needed 15psi to make 164rwkw so it goes to show how much better the rb25 heads flow. :(

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
