How much do you want to spend?

What power do you want to make?

Is it daily driver?

Do you have supporting mods for a larger turbo???????

Much more info is needed for people to give you some sort of a decent answer.

Exactly, how much power do you want to make? What is your budget?

The 33gtst will make around 450hp until you need to spend big $$ on it to go further. However you really are wasting $$ trying to get the car beyond 400hp (300kw) as you will be using more rubber than Ron Jeremy and not being able to enjoy the car.

The GT3037 or GT2835 are probably highest ps rating sensible turbos for a gtst.

I would go a Garret BB, on a second choice I would go a KKR... probably because I have had a few of them and they have been very good to me.

Currently have a KKR560 and with my new engine if I don't get 300RWKW I will cry. Engine = heavily modded RB30DET.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
