whats a TD06 worth? sounds awsome. I also have heard of a TD05/6, anyone else heard of this? apparently good upgrade for RB25 and has very quick spool up with good top end, although full boost by 3grand from the 06!! damn isnt that as good as standard?

Hi JMS is that you car on the Tilbrooks dyno graph on the "Which Trust Setup?" post?

If it is can you please have a look at the following table and let me know if it is close to what you have experienced...

At 7,000 rpm it has 300 rwkw

At 6,000 rpm it has 250 rwkw

At 5,000 rpm it has 195 rwkw

At 4,000 rpm it has 93 rwkw

That's an average of 210 rwkw.

To work this out I assumed on the dyno it was in 4th gear and running 27 kph per 1,000 rpm. I had to do this extrapolation because the graph did not show rpm.

I would appreciate your comments.

Actually got to drive the JMS 302rwkw GTST last night (thankyou Terry). I must say I was quite impressed. That car doesn't have the usual huge jap turbo sledge hammer effect at all ,but, was quite progressive power delivery. Very drivable even through tight cornering- no opps I boosted at the wrong time and did a 360! The turbo lag was noticable and took a slight change in driving style. Instead of just planting your foot for instant boost I had to change down a gear and use the revs. A familiar woooosh comes from anything over 3000rpm and a shove in the seat really takes effect after 3700rpm. The cars redline is set to 8000rpm which still provides ample rev range to play with. Would be lieing if I said I wasn`t grinning from ear to ear inside ( couldn`t let on to much that I`ve never driven a car with that much power b4 and Terry said he is a girl in the passinger seat) when I was frying the tyres all the way through second and third!- not enough road for fourth.

sidewaymambo- definately no instant throttle response if thats what your getting at. Extremely good compared to other cars "I`ve" driven with hiflo and big Jap turbos

Sydneykid- You seem to know better, how about you tell us what its like since you have never even seen the car. ciao

This simply isn't ture. New generation turbochargers using variable turbine geometry and variable pitch turbines work to eliminate lag. They are more responsive and create higher boost pressures at lower engine speeds than conventional tubochargers by altering the internal geometry of the turbine housing. The boost pressure is optimized across the engine speed range by adjusting the guide vanes inside the turbine housing. At lower engine speeds, they restrict the flow and thus boost pressure is increased; at high engine speeds they open wide and the exhaust back-pressure falls, restoring top-end power.

These things would be simply awesome on the side of an RB.

I hope that brings people up to speed. No pun intended.

Hi BOOSTD, did I read this right.....

"I was lookin a getting a trust TD06. Terry from JMS just installed one onto his Rb25 powered 32 and made 308rwkw @1.2bar and full boost a 3000rpm."

had another read, still says full boost at 3000

was replying to the quoted post not the above one, i must have been skipping around the thread a bit.

    • Did this end up working? Did you take some pictures?
    • And finally, the front lower mount. It was doubly weird. Firstly, the lower mount is held in with a bracket that has 3 bolts (it also acts as the steering lock stop), and then a nut on the shock lower mount itself. So, remove the 3x 14mm head bolts , then the 17mm nut that holds the shock in. From there, you can't actually remove the shock from the lower mount bolt (took me a while to work that out....) Sadly I don't have a pic of the other side, but the swaybar mounts to the same bolt that holds the shock in. You need to push that swaybar mount/bolt back so the shock can be pulled out past the lower control arm.  In this pic you can see the bolt partly pushed back, but it had to go further than that to release the shock. Once the shock is out, putting the new one in is "reverse of disassembly". Put the top of the shock through at least one hole and put a nut on loosely to hold it in place. Put the lower end in place and push the swaybar mount / shock bolt back in place, then loosely attach the other 2 top nuts. Bolt the bracket back in place with the 14mm head bolts and finally put the nut onto the lower bolt. Done....you have new suspension on your v37!
    • And now to the front.  No pics of the 3 nuts holding the front struts on, they are easy to spot. Undo 2 and leave the closest one on loosely. Underneath we have to deal with the wiring again, but this time its worse because the plug is behind the guard liner. You'll have to decide how much of the guard liner to remove, I undid the lower liner's top, inside and lower clips, but didn't pull it full off the guard. Same issue undoing the plug as at the rear, you need to firmly push the release clip from below while equally firmly gripping the plug body and pulling it out of  the socket. I used my fancy electrical disconnect pliers to get in there There is also one clip for the wiring, unlike at the rear I could not get behind it so just had to lever it up and out.....not in great condition to re-use in future.
    • Onto the rear lower shock mount. It's worth starting with a decent degrease to remove 10+ years of road grime, and perhaps also spray a penetrating oil on the shock lower nut. Don't forget to include the shock wiring and plug in the clean.... Deal with the wiring first; you need to release 2 clips where the wiring goes into the bracket (use long nose pliers behind the bracket to compress the clip so you can reuse it), and the rubber mount slides out, then release the plug.  I found it very hard to unplug, from underneath you can compress the tab with a screwdriver or similar, and gently but firmly pull the plug out of the socket (regular pliers may help but don't put too much pressure on the plastic. The lower mount is straightforward, 17mm nut and you can pull the shock out. As I wasn't putting a standard shock back in, I gave the car side wiring socket a generous gob of dialectric grease to keep crap out in the future. Putting the new shock in is straightforward, feed it into at least 1 of the bolt holes at the top and reach around to put a nut on it to hold it up. Then put on the other 2 top nuts loosely and put the shock onto the lower mounting bolt (you may need to lift the hub a little if the new shock is shorter). Tighten the lower nut and 3 upper nuts and you are done. In my case the BC Racing shocks came assembled for the fronts, but the rears needed to re-use the factory strut tops. For that you need spring compressors to take the pressure off the top nut (they are compressed enough when the spring can move between the top and bottom spring seats. Then a 17mm ring spanner to undo the nut while using an 8mm open spanner to stop the shaft turning (or, if you are really lucky you might get it off with a rattle gun).
    • You will now be able to lift the parcel shelf trim enough to get to the shock cover bolts; if you need to full remove the parcel shelf trim for some reason you also remove the escutcheons around the rear seat release and you will have to unplug the high stop light wiring from the boot. Next up is removal of the bracket; 6 nuts and a bolt Good news, you've finally got to the strut top! Remove the dust cover and the 3 shock mount nuts (perhaps leave 1 on lightly for now....) Same on the other side, but easier now you've done it all before
