*jun titanium retainers

*hks valve springs suit camshaft

*standard valves, 3 way valve angle maybee 4?

*tomei solid lifters

*hks metallic gasket kit

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

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
