R34 Gtr N1's - With Fairly Stock Rb26dett Engine...will This Be Okay?


Recommended Posts

Hey guys, ive got a fairly stock r33 gtr rb26 engine, and have found a really good price on some r34 gtr n1's....and wanted to replace the ceramics with these as i know the ceramics can cause alot of pain to the engine if they let go!!!

Do these n1 turbos need any modifications to fit to the standard manifold/dumps etc....or is it direct bolt up?

Will i be okay running these turbos if my rb26 is not mofidfied highly?

mods:

acl forged piston (.5mm oversize)

1.2mm thick headgasket tomei

arp headstuds

3" exhaust

ARC panel filters

no other mods, and factory ecu...would this be a wise idea, i just dont want to ruin my rebuilt motor by keeping the ceramics.

thanks

yep it's a great idea. with 1.2mm gasket and forged pistons you could quite happily run up to 20psi providing you have the fuel supply and cooling and tuning to support it. :)

Ive got The r34 N1 Turbos Good Choice Perfect Street Turbo , If i was You But i would Get a Aftermarket ECU Apexi Power FC , Fuel Pump And a Good Set of Injectors . With these Mods and your Mods Car Should Run Great ...

Thanks mate, can the n1's use the stock dumps? heres the auction for the turbos, are these real N1 Turbos?p.s will these be ok with stock ecu for now?

i run the trust ones. thats the dunmps and front pipe in one (three piece)

very nice but anything is better than standard! tomei items look nice!

Cooper if your in new zealand your xforce dealer out there (who sells stuff on ebay under performance guru) has very very cheep xforce gtr dumps!

Does anyone know the diametre of the the pipe on the x-force dumps where the dump connects to the front pipe? And if possible the distance from centre to centre of the bolt holes on the same end? I need to know if the front pipes i have at home will bolt up to these dumps.

If the front pipes fit the stock dumps i'd say you will be right! xforce ones are copys of hks dumps.

this guy from nz is clearly the cheepest you'd find them! and i beleive he's nz's distributor for xforce!

Hi, definetly replace the dumps but do not replace the manifolds. The turbo's are not big enough to worry about that and if anything aftermarket manifolds will give the turbo's more lag. Iam running these same turbo's in my r32 GTR with an R33 engine and Iam making 314.7rwkw on 20psi. With supporting mods like 550cc injectors/040 fuel pump/power fc/turbo back exhaust etc

    • Nice shot! They look super clean. The roof rack delete on the black one is interesting. Would like to see more pictures from different angles. It's subtle but could make quite a difference to how the car looks in profile.
