i think with every turbo you will find atleast 1 person that has something bad to say, even if it is a hks or garret, etc. the better stuff will just have less people that have had a bad experience.

i think the flow problem with the kkr turbos would be because of the v-band housing.

Yeah, I have seen the design of them and they are not the best. But you also hear of a lot of people using them with great success. I think I am going to go the KKR430.

week ego I install this turbo on GTST R33, Here in georgia we have no dyno ore good tuning center so we install it in garage:) so car was stock just have installed FMIC and exaust, while instalation KKR430 need no modification or somthing like this just need to make suitable connectors for oil and water but its easy, stock westgate is on 11 psi in begining we had little detonation on top boost but after ignition regulation it was ok, we change westgate on stock turbo westgate and it cames on 8psi after we boost it on 12 PSI now car is ok and feels much faster but again without DYNO results:)

if you will have any questions write me:)

has anyone got any info bout holding boost in the kkr turbos? ive got a kkr480 on my car and we cant seem to get it to hold anything below 16psi in 1/2nd gears and 3rd/4th hits around 1.2bar..

wot needs to be done 2 help it hold boost and not creep dammit lol

hey mate ive got a kkr430 you need to get the wastegate bored out and a new flap put in and that should solve it i think wont knoe till next week i went to MTQ in adelaide $200 he is charging

ok mate ill look into it!!!

my kkr480 has like a flap at the back of the housing with a sirclip holding it in which looks like u can run a seperate wastegate pipe then join up furth down the dump, instead of the wastegate gases going 90 degrees then out the exhaust. hmmm wonder if that would help it? so they just flow straight out.cause wouldnt over boosting be caused cause the wastegate cant get rid of the gases quick enough? there for a straight pipe off the wastegate should help me flow and hold boost better? who knows. hmmmmm

just wondering if anyone know when the kkr480 or kkr430 comes on boost at??

so i i can tell you about KKR430 it comes on 2200-2400 rpm, this turbo is really super we install it on automatic R33, we here in georgia dont have any Dyno and dont know what power it gives but i can tell yo several times we tested it vs M3 1996 3.0 286Hp and on 402m at finish line M3 was at least 7 m behind :P and dont forget it was manual :P so turbo is really good and am going to buy it soon but dont know what to buy 430 or 480:)

Anyone have any idea what the spool time difference is between the 480 and 560, on paper the only difference is the 3" inlet as opposed to the 2.5" on the 480, and the 560 has a bigger front wheel, ive pretty much decided to go the 480 just wondering if there is much of a difference in spool time compared to the 560, if not i may as well get the 560 for the extra $100.

You will probably find that the 560 wont bolt on with out a spacer as you have to grind the compressor housing on the 480 to make it fit on an RB, running a spacer means you will have alignment problems if you try to use the KKR dump pipe.

Just sent otomoto an email to check the size of the comp covers.

ive got a kkr430 havent put iton yes they overboost you have to get the wastegate machined out it cost me $200 for em todo the job so hopefully its fixed that littl problem waiting untill next week to get it put on will let you knoe how it goes gotta get my microtech LT10s on azwell so ill see how it goes if its crap im gonna get the garret gt3071 or smething for a little fun :P

mate has a kkr560 on his soarer and he made 263rwkw on standard internals, injectors, ecu. he only has a fmic, 38mm wastegate and full exhaust. it has abit of lag but when its on it really pulls hard.

Im assuming thats on a 1jz?

Also any tips on someone preferably in S.E melb to bore out the wastegate?

    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
