Looking good, the t51r whine is so unique, will be my next turbo setup no doubt! Whats the tuning goal with the car paul, are you aming at a power figure or are you going to see how you go on the blacktop and go from there?

:P

is it more than twice as good as the garrett equivalent though?

Its not twice as good but...when at the pointy end of motorsport a big outlay makes a small gain. When at the other end the same outlay produces a large gain. Every little bit helps. Make sense?

I always use HKS turbo's...and always seem to achieve better results than the generic Garrett users.

The word equivalent is not a wise choice as the meaning is here...

Similar would have been a better word.

uve always set ur heads up right though, so that would go a long way in helping

hurry up and get some revs, boost & timing into the thing and show us the graphs :P

yeah ok...got me there.

mate im itching to hear a full power run...its a good thing the dyno we use is the same one used at Autosalon so i will be able to overlay my pump fuel runs at Newcastle Autosalon over the results. Straight HKS GT-RS to HKS T51R SPL comparo...should be interesting.

    • Good to hear. Hopefully you're happy enough not to notice when driving and just enjoy yourself.
    • I mean, most of us just love cars. Doesnt necessarily have to be a skyline.
    • Did you pick up a manual cluster to remove the position indicator?  (Pretty sure the 34 has the gear position in the cluster, but it's been a while)
    • Here is a recipe. Sonic blocks till you get one that has a good enough bore. Get a torque plate and block brace, use your choice of fasteners (arp ect) bolt the thing together empty, half fill it and let it cure. Release it when it has, go to a REPUTABLE RB Builder and get the thing line bored/honed and cylinder honed to size, then wash. Once its all clean and dandy, wash and blow it out again. Then again.  Assemble said engine to your desired clearances with oil control mods, gasket to suit desired CR/Squish ect. Attach your extended sump with proper trap door oil baffles and head drain plumbed to sump with a SUMP BREATHER SYSTEM. Build your front diff with a decent LSD, rebuild your transfer case with a few extra plates, more than likely replace your tailshaft centre bearing and tighten up the rear diff. Tune to minimise excessive midrange cylinder pressure (timing unless you like to split bores and rebuild engines) Enjoy your engine, but hate the fact you are now destroying engine mounts, gearboxes, gearbox mounts, diff output flanges and driveshafts, diff mounts, tailshafts and front CV's.   Disclaimer.... Ive never done any of the aforementioned stuff.......
    • 440s will support well over 400HP on petrol, which is a decent place to be for an RB20. 230+rwkW. Will be a safer bet for idle/low load. 550s would be nice for the extra headroom. I've made the same decision with mine (Neo25). 1000s are probably too big for the Nistuned ECU, so I have some smaller ones.
