Hi all

After some advice on which turbo/turbo's to run

Im chasing 400 awhp on a safe tune, with boost settings at 0.7 bar low and whatevers required for 400 hp on high.

I have been looking at a set of 2560R's. Whole aim is to keep the response while providing respectable power. a set of slides would also do the job however there not rated as high so I would probobly be asking more out of the turbo and im not so sure about the journal bearings? The price difference is quite large however. I also looked at a set of N1's but 3k for second hand turbo's just doesnt do it for me.

Thanks

Ian

ian, you'll be after a set of gt-ss. however i doubt ull want to pay for that little HKS badge, so go and have a talk to dan, he's supplying my turbo's for me.

Another thing is to go and look at the dyno thread in forced induction (its a sticky) as there's a fair few setups and figures in there.

Youll be look at ~3k for the turbo's, then u'll prolly want to change dumps while they are off, and then u need gaskets.

On a side note, give me a figure ud be willing to pay for my N1's and i'll think about it. Also i'm selling those hks dumps, and the trust front pipe.

Im sending you a PM now shane.

Slide turbos would be good but I think the wait on them is about 2 months at this stage? Also there only rated to 300 kw so I would be close to maxing them out, unless that was 300 kw per turbo.

Shane, more info on the GT SS man?

The HKS GT-SS is the inbetween standards and the HKS 2530. From what i've seen its pretty comparable to N1's. A set of HKS GT-SS will cost you $3032.32 + tax if u get hit from nengun.

I know spilmer (thats his name on here) is running a pair on his gtr.

I've also been looking around too Ian, decisions decisions....

a mate put some of those garret 2860R's on his 32 GTR and he's very happy, they are very responsive..

I wanted something a little bigger for my GTR but with stock internals i cant. I'm thinking about getting the Garrets too. at less than $2500 a pair brand new you can't go past em..

Apparently a well set up to4z can come close to matching the GTSS's down low....I video evidence somewhere!

I attached some turbo rating info but I think it is a little old

Along side N1s and GTSS's I would look at Apexi AX53B70 P21s and Trust T517Zs

is that for one or both?

Both

Yeah, price is more or less the same as the 2560's ive been looking at, and this appears to be a kit with all the gaskets etc.

2860R's would probobly be too big for me and response would suffer, but where did you find them at less then 2.5k a pair?

big single!

well how driveable do u want it.? u can have a small single with internal wastegate like some of the BeeR* cars.

but i also second 2530 or GT SS

yeah ive been thinking of going to a medium sized single rated to 450 HP or the like, however airflow may suffer as opposed to the twin setup? Bearing in mind im not chasing quater mile times, its being built to turn and be a daily so midrange is important.

BeeR uses a 3037S on their drift RB26 should make the power you want and have strong midrange..afterall that is what they chase in D1!

ian, keep in mind if u purchase a set of turbo's from nengun, ur likely to get hit with import tax, and that will soon blow the price of the turbo's way up.

going a single would be too much hassle and money. you need new manifold, dump pipe, front pipe, intercooler piping, afm piping, water & oil lines. and then it'd be majorly defectable, caus it'd be the first thing the coppers see when they lift ur bonnet.

well i dnt remember what they are using lol.. i just remember it was an internal gate single.. that wasnt at all that big.. and was deemed quite driveable.

the 2560R's seem the go at this stage, bang for buck they seem to be the best bet.

    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
