Hey all,

Have sold the GTST and now im looking at a gtr...

Boostworxs have been great to me and helped out heaps. but they only have a 2wd dyno....

So now who do you guys use that are reptuable and trusted for tuning etc of the 4wd cars?

Cheers

ps off topic... are n1 turbos standered gtr 33 turbos?

how do they do it seeing as they only have a 2wd dyno??

drop the front driveshaft, pop the fuse, do the tune then get it ready for pickup.

I used to go to GWW but I feel boostwerx look after me with service and price

You dont need to do any mechanical mods to GTR's to dyno on 2wd, just pull out the ATTESSA fuse and the car goes to 2wd. Besides the dynotune is working on the engine, only needs one set of feedback from the rears to work (the only benefit in getting a 4wd dyno is that you can compare the power loss from the front driveshaft/diff assembly.. same way u can get it dynoed at the flywheel or the rear wheels, its just a question of application.)

If you're north of the city, I'd recommend Road & Track in collins st, enfield, their dyno guy Mikey has done excellent work on my gtr, from pulling 15 more kw out of thin air to getting rid of power sags. If you're down south tho, boostworx is the way to go (ive never been there but given the feedback on this board, he knows his stuff and doesnt charge an arm and a leg for it)

It's only on R32 GTRs that you can pull out the fuse to make them RWD. With R33 & R34 GTRs you to have drop the front driveshaft.

N1 turbos were made for all GTRs but are only standard on N1 or Nur GTRs. The R34 N1s are the only N1 turbos that have steel wheels instead of the ceramic exhaust wheel. There are also 3 different types of R34 GTR N1 turbos. You will find alot more info on them in the Forced Induction section.

so how will i be able to tell what ones they have on the car?? just by looking at them?

And they are a slight upgrade from standered?

I've had free horsepower before as well at other places.........the problem is, the way they usually get is by tuning your ECU to the point where they thin out the AFR's too much to the point of Too Lean and sometimes Detonation.......I always prefer slightly conservative tunes and my engine thanks me for it.

you will have to get the serial numbers from your turbo's. Iam running R34 N1 turbo's "Garret 2860r-7" on my GTR and pulling 314rwkw on 20psi. Tuned by Boostworx.

That's interesting.........I've got some -5's ready to go on with a PFC, full fuel, cams and intercooler upgrade so I'm hoping to pull at least those figures myself. Oh.....and a Kakimoto full dual N1 exh.

Did you have to do many other mods to get those figures?

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
