trying to gather some info on street response turbos for the r34 gtt.

theres alot of speculation but it seems like the gt35r is the way to go.

any suggestions and help would be great.

im after the most usable street response possible.

thanks in advance

Do a search for SydneyKid's specs on his R34 GTT using a GCG Hiflow turbo setup making about 270rwkw with stock turbo-like response.

i dont believe any highflow will outbeat a larger size turbo like the gt35 but ill have a look thanks

I honestly think there are too many people making mongrel-spec highflows with unknown performance. Exhaust housings are limiting in some and not others, a properly designed HKS, Apexi or similar is the way to go.

^^ exactly what i was thinking.

Silly question this really

You cant have both.

A GT35 (as spoken about here dozens of times), is a 300rwkw+ turbo. Its not going to have close to the stock response.

GCG Hi-flow (again, well covered), is a ~260rwkw with almost stock like response.

What do you want, power or response?

like i said above i want response, most street ability possible.

so ur saying the hi flow will out perform a gt35? we all know of turbos that only hit boost at like 7000rpm which is useless and not wat im looking for. but comparing a highflow with a gt35, the highflow may have the advantage hitting boost slightly quicker but i doubt it will make any difference wen the gt35 hits boost.

correct me if im wrong but the gt35 will composate for that second it does lag with the extra amount of power.

again like i said im lookon for response and feedback of course, if ppl have experience where a highflow has outperformed the gt35 let me know.

GT35.....LOL

Ill see you at 5,000RPM shall I......you call that streetable???

5000rpm?!??!? shit maybe im confusing myself with another turbo but i thought id see full boost at like 3800rpm

someone should clear this uip for me lol.

does anyone know how identical the highflows are to makn full boost compared to factory.

I think what they are saying is for street use, hitting boost at 5k rpm is pointless. Also said above, you cant have both...

i think thers a miscommunication here. i know i cant have response and power. im fine with a little lag, as long as when it does make power it componsates for the lag. im not talking about 5000rpm and starting to make boost.

okai how bout we look at it like this.

"theoretically", over lets say 150-200m a highflow or a gt35. which would finish 1st

call me lame call me a hoon wat ever, i rkn this is the best way to explain to get results lol

300kw+ at the rear wheels is pointless if

- you cant drive

- you have stock suspension

- you cant afford insurance

- you want to keep your licence etc etc

what sort of cars have you driven?

honestly a 200rwkw gtst on the street is fine

you can take down most cars and take anything off the line if you can drive and be responsible

a GT35r on the street is gonna net you seeing 100km++ before it even winds up and goes hard

so youll just amplify any fines, accidents etc you have

a stocker v8 will take you off the line no worries with all the lag you have

then when it comes on boost - youll have wheelspin city

guess it depends - but do what you like dude, no matter what anyone tells you, you will buy what you want

like i said above i want response, most street ability possible.

In all honesty, use the search function and read some more information.

There is plenty of info, and it doesnt seem that you have grasped things at all.

A GT35 is a 700hp turbo, where a hi-flow is around 450-500. How can you possibly compare apples and oranges?

Please read the sticky thread (dyno results), and then search on the Turbo frame numbers (GT35, GT30, GCG) etc.

thanks

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
