*jun titanium retainers

*hks valve springs suit camshaft

*standard valves, 3 way valve angle maybee 4?

*tomei solid lifters

*hks metallic gasket kit

*cometic head gasket

*tomei cam cap studs

*arp head studs

*standard throttle bodies and plenum

i am capping the car at 800hp i doubut i can get it from pump fuel? but want to see the car at the drag strip with race fuel and slicks......just to brag 9's...lol

is the trust t78 better? i hear t04z has little lag

most of my things are hks so i'm leaning towards the t04z.... The cars goning to be a drift car and street drag car

what is the most rwkw's from this turbo

are all rated at 800hp? why get a bigger wheel ar100 if the smaller 1 ar63 is same hp rating?

thanks

josh

If drifting is your main focus, neither of those turbos will be any good at all.

Too much lag and not enough response, peaky power delivery and poor throttle adjustability (important in a drift car!!!)

A few of the (expensive) parts/mods on your list would be over-kill for an RB30DET built to make a nice, responsive, 450 to 500hp- which would be more than enough in a light drift car like a silvia with the right suspension set-up.

so cap it at 450hp - 500hp

would it have traction for the street?

and turn it up for when acting the fool....lol

is it possible to do this?

That's about the MAX you would want for a street car mate.

Like many have said, if you want a 'good' drift car, you're gonna need a responsive car.

But for which turbo to go ahead with? I would go the HKS T04z because it's newer technology?

yeah i'll get the t04z

i want to convert the silvia to 4wd now

not right away though... i got a 300zx box an rbr26 bellhousing for now

its been done before

i'll give it a go... further down the track

thanks ppl

hey

i got a hks cast iron low mount manifold

it has a t04 flange

and for the top it has a td flange 3 bolt for the wastegate instead put a turbo

my point is if i put a smaller trust td..... something (which one should i get)internal gate

and get a garett 3035r 700hp turbo d xr6 turbo also internally gated or smaller turbo?

then the car would spool up quick for drift and the big one would kick in later for drags

let me know ppl

Hoenstly mate, i think you really really need to do a lot more reasearch.

Your ideas sound very up in the air, let alone the budget.

Running a 400rwkw+ car is going to cost you upwards of 20k without even sniffing.

Probably closer to 30-35k by the time you replace everything you break when you try to start using the power

Yeah mate I really think you need to go back and have a look at the basic shit before youre doing what youre talking about doing...

Takes a lot of commitment and huge amount of cash to have a car running an engine like that...

Why do you think you dont see them everywhere? For just that reason, most people dont have the money, dedication, nor want to live with the compromise.

And I assure you, if you think youll be driving 800hp round on the street, there WILL be compromises :D

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
