Big Turbo For A R34 Gtt

[Tom K]

Hey guys this is my first post!. I have a 2005 G35 coupe, but thats not what I have a question about. My friend has a 2001 Nissan R34 GT-T, and he is looking to upgrade the turbo. He is looking for more power than the stock ceramic turbo offers. He told me that there is no "turbo kit" made for his car, and that most of the pieces have to be custom made, is that correct? Also the turbo he wants to put on the car is a Garrett GT3670, what do you guys think about that turbo for street use?. Currently he had an apexi turbo-back, apexi filter, ecu, front mount ic, and step colder plugs. Also he plans to put cams in the car. Let me know what you think of this set-up, and if you know of any parts pre-fabed for this car for a bigger turbo like turbo piping, intercooler piping, exhaust manifolds, ect. Also we are located in the United States, so there are not too many shops around here that have answers for skyline questions.

Thanks in advance,

-Tom

there are HKS kits like the GT-RS and the GT 2835 Pro S that are made for the R34 GTT. maybe not as big as your planning, but they will have good response

and remember its still an Rb25, and alot of r33 turbo kits should bolt up

If you had links to them, that would help alot, I would rather have my firend buy a kit that is proven to work, then a kit that is custom made.

I talked to my friend again, he said he wants to make more power than this kit offeres. Do you know of any other kits, or have links to people who did custom turbo setups?

-Thanks again

You havent really said how much power he wants.

If he wants between 270-310rwkw(housing size depending) i would advise him to get this:

Past 300kw/310kw your gonna be putting the internals under some duress...

Yea, that is basically what I was looking to find? Is this a good kit? I mean it is HKS I see no reason why it wouldnt be good. Anyone try this and have good/bad luck? Also he is looking for around 400-430whp. I had to look up what kw is because we dont use that in the us, but he would want like 300+kw. He is also looking into getting a set of cams if anyone could tell me a good brand.

Thanks again guys.

any r33 kit fits a R34 with no issues.... sell about 6 a month to r34 owners...

What kit are you talking about? Also my friend would like to find a kit that has a top-mount turbo, is there such a thing??

Also if you guy want to see some pics, I am probably going single turbo on my G35 coupe!

GT30/40 should be enough, its been done with low mount manifold as well, if your friend wants to be a sleeper...this setup will suit your friend most since he wants to get cams upgrade.

I use GT35R but a lot of timing have to be taken out, have lots of lag and no cams upgrade, as the minimum tune possible is already around 300rwkw,, changing cams would slighylt increase power, and engine goes kapoof

Lots of good info on the forums.

maybe your friend should be actively researching himself?

But yes, HKS 2835 Pro S or HKS GTRS are good.

And you can get top mount or low mount.

Just get a manifold to suit.

We are having trouble finding quality top-mount manifolds, only the ones on ebay. Who makes a good top mount manifold?

(also I try searching through threads, but how do I change it so that I can see everyones post, as of now I have to click on each individual post)

Garrett 3540 ftw. 300+ kw easy. build the motor 1st.

[Tom K]

My friend decided to get a polished Garrett Gt3076, and he got a manifold from these guys http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Fl...intake+manifold

I think he is somewhere on this forum, but hasnet posted in this thread, he plans to have all of this work done sometime inthe begining of the new year. I'm sure he will start a build thread soon, and I will try and get a photoshoot of both our cars after we both get are turbos installed.
