hi guys thinking of building my rb26 with a step 3 hks 2.8 kit and want around 700awhp and would like to stick with the standard low mount twin system i current had twin garrett 2860 with 540awhp and my oil pump went bang and narded the motor so is the biggest turbos that are still standard low mounts the trust 618z and does any 1 no how much power this will make as i want the most response with minumal lag

Most response with minimal lag does not work with ~520rwkw im afraid.

It never has, and never will.

I don't even think you'd be able to make 500rwkw with the 618s. Or any other low mount for that matter on PULP :)

As 2860's and 400rwkw is a little bit over what everyone else comes close to making. So i think your reading there which was high is confusing the possibilities of it all.

Your probably looking at a large 900-1000hp single, or highmounted larger twins if you want ~520rwkw.

what do twin GT-RS make?

I'm at 580 awhp with my GT-RS terbs and 100% injector duty with 26 odd psi. This is also fairly conservative ignition timing.

I'd say that with ample fueling and more aggressive timing, you should be able to get in the order of 620 to 630 awhp with these terbs on 98 octane pump fuel. This assumes head porting, long duration/high lift cams etc.

I gather the 2860's are the -10's?

not to sure on sizes will double check with serial numbers just running twin 400hp garret turbos at 1.6 bar 540awhp very responsive. so i think some people mite be not seeing the possibiltys of this setup. alot of guys a running hks 25/30 to 540 rwhp including myself in a cefiro so this isnt even pushing it to the max 1.8 bar that i could in my gtr

-10's correct...

they are rated to support 400hp each...800hp in total.

This is at the motor, and not possible obviously if you have stock everything..

Your set up was probably with -10's already.

The HKS 2.8 stroker kit + the cams would have been very responsive...shame the whole thing went bang due to the oil pump.

Which type of turbo are you running?

As for the biggest low mounts for a gtr..I was sure the -10's were...I will look it up and get back to you.

Cheers

I have seen custom low mount td06's/T67's and twin GT3037s....but the T618z are close to being the largest kit, tomei do one also but i cant remmeber the specs. I have seen just shy of 500rwkw with T618z's but require lots of head work.. a single is cheaper and easier...

Does this help?

thanks mate this was great... just to stat my setup was a built rb26 with twin low mount 2871rs - 10 with all the usually head a other upgrades was running 1.6 bar with 540awhp.

now im goin to build a 2.8l hks stoker so i want 650-700 awhp i loved the last setup was great all in originals posistion and hade very minimal lag.

so i want another 100 awhp but dont think my current setup with turbos will do this but if i go a big single like a hks to4z im affraid of getting to much lag. so that is why i would like to stay with the twin low setup so any idea people would be great it is a street track car so i dont want lag so any info would be sewwt people and thanks for the help so far

As far as I was aware, my current setup is as big as you can low-mount.

I've got twin HKS 2835's with internal gates.

Compressor housing is apparently exactly the same as the GT-RS but exhaust housing is somewhat bigger.

to the best of my memory the biggest off the shelf low mount kit for GTR is either one of the tomei kits, or the apexi kits. I thinking the apexi ones. have a look into those if big low mount power is what you crave. but it has to be said HKS GT-RS on a 2.8 will be a pretty nice set-up and easily breeze past 400awkw with all the right bits in place to get it there.

Super Dig out 
But my RB26/30 runs 716whp on E85 with bumped up comp.
gets boost at 1700rpm and runs 10.3 on street tyres, stock box & without a burnout.
Excited to get on the MT this year with a burnout.

      Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      So while the second sentence is completely correct and the whole point of the conversation, the first sentence bears consideration. If this bloke is just hoping to throw big turbos on and drive it around, because there are no helpful facilities at all in his tropical paradise** then he likely has zero chance of even knowing what the TP is on the last column in the stock maps, let alone know whether the ECU is operating anywhere near it or past it. So the point is very very moot. And, per what I said before, at stock boost on those turbos, you may well be off the end of the map. **I'm just back from Vanuatu, so I know exactly what small Pacific nations can be like wrt paradise without requisite facilities. But it's not even that simple. I put a high flow on my car and had to drive it around with a proper tune because of the lack of opportunity*** to put the bigger AFM and injectors into it to allow it to be tuned. I had to turn the boost down to less than I had before, and back off the boost controller's ramp, because it was exploring parts of the map that it didn't drive in before, and really couldn't access for tuning on the dyno either, and so was pinging. It was still well within the last column, because when I first**** set up the Nistune on the Neo I rescaled all axes of the maps to give some more space to explore. ***Family dyno was broken ****This was 13 years ago, and the TIM thing wasn't a thing then and so TP would definitely grow when pushing past the stock tune's limits.

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Yep, this bit another local owner. I caught it before putting the transmission back into the car, what I noticed was the pressure plate fingers weren't flat and even. It's more obvious with the pull style clutch because the throwout bearing ring was visibly not flat once everything is put together. Nismo should really update their instructions to call out this specific detail. I'm not even sure the clutch as-shipped orients everything properly.

      By jayden_l33 · Posted

      It ended up being that orientation of the float hub in relation to the clutch disk, when I installed it, I heard a loud click and being stupid, I decided to not take it a part and check it. The hub didn't properly align with the clutch disk and was causing the issue. Definitely an odd one! Dahtone Racing was able to fix me right up, stand up blokes!

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Right, but I'm saying on the stock ECU measured airmass from the MAF is no higher than stock. So it's accounting for the higher flow rate iso-manifold pressure. You just have to keep turning down the boost until you're within the stock tune's load scale. If you run off the end there's no telling what will happen. This does mean there's zero benefit to the turbos you're running vs stock, if anything it's just a straight downgrade because the transient response is worse, you don't even get the ECU's boost solenoid helping to pull the wastegate closed during initial spool, and peak power is only whatever the factory map can give you before you hit the R&R corner. On a -9 I would bet that you would have to change out the wastegate spring once you have a real ECU and you're tuning it for real. I'm not saying this is a remotely ideal state of affairs, it's just a way to keep it driveable until you can get a proper tune done.
