Hey forum how are ya? Wanted to know what was the best turbo setup for a r33 gtr. Looking at 450 to 500hp at all wheels. Is the twin setup better than a big single. Looking for as close to stock spool up time as possible and a good low and midrange. If staying with the twin setup i would like to know what turbos will fit back in the stock position and give the sort of power I'm looking for, it will be a daily driver seeing some drag racing time about once or twice a month. Just wanting to hear some good advice as to what setup and turbo or turbo's to get.

Do a search, or look throught the rb26 dyno results thread in the stickys.. Click here -> http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...showtopic=93880 there is alot of information in there showing response, power figures ect on various setups. But i'll list some pro's and con's anyway..

You'd be best of going for a HKS 2530/Garrett twin low mount setup. You can retain the standard manifolds ect, can make the required 500hp, engine bay looks standard to keep to po po away, good(ish) respone, cheaper than a high mount setup, and i'm sure there's many more reason's other poeple will add...

    • Spotted in Adelaide last week.... mine! New to me two weeks ago.. love it!
    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
