hey all...

i was wondering if all of you people that have had experience with all different turbos would be able to shed some light on turbo differences on a rb30/26

im building the car for mainly drag racing but the occasional run around a race track so im not really worried about lag, well to a extent, i would honeslty say id be happy with full boost around the 4800 5000rpm mark..

i have been reading the posts every1 has been taking about their rb30s and their turbos and the power that yous are making and there is not really much info on anything bigger than a 35r, there is a fair bit of info on to4z's as well but what do you guys think about ITS turbos and billett turbos or turbonetics gtk turbos???

i maby be going for a billett turbo which is a t76gts rated to 900 - 1100 hp with a open exhaust housing in a .96 option

my motor stands as is

rb30

main studs

headstuds

spool rods

aries flat top pistons 8.6 comp

all oil mods completed

jun oil pump

jun collar

custom alloy sump, trap doors, baffles ect,

modified pickup

rb26 head

massive porting, knife edged ect ect,

throats also ported

1mm or 1.5mm oversidzed stainless valves, im not sure, but its one of the two

hks 272 10.2mmlift in and out

hks step 2 valvesprings

6boost manifold

1000cc injectors

ati 1000hp harmonic balancer...

will all be tuned on autronic sm4

i will turn the motor to around 7500 8000rpm so im hoping it will make some serious power......

i really would like to know peoples experience with a setup like this and what yous recon it would withstand and just turbo recommendations and power outputs yous recon it will make thru a manual.....

thanks guys.

have you looked into the HKS T51R ball bearing?

Mate had one on a supra, made 480rwkw and was full boost by 5000rpm in second gear. (bush bearing version)

Ran a 10.81 with lots of traction loss. (Search FUS01 on youtube)

Anyway, the supra had minimal mods - Haltek, Water Meth injection, FMIC, Injectors, EXhaust manifold and EX gate, and standard engine. Was extremely reliable, compression was still very high after a lot of drag runs. Damn toyota building bullet proof engines and greaboxes.

Anyway, look into that, might be a good start.

Have you dealt with the oil control issues of your engine?

My engine used to be in a VH commodore with a pair of 2540s on it, made 365rwkw @ 21psi and also did a 10.81 with no loss of traction.

I now have the engine and am putting a GT35R on it, the commodore is getting a HKS 2.8L with T51R-SPL.. should be pretty mean..

I'm only aiming for 400rwhp for now with headroom for more later on. My mate is aiming for 800rwhp with the T51R..

Nice setup :( Sounds pretty much like you should be looking in the territory of things like a Garrett GT4294R... would be a crapload of fun with a setup like that!

A guy over here in NZ with a 240Z running a built RB30/26 hybrid running a T51R-SPL making 661kw @ wheels at 7500rpm on pump gas - dyno plot here:

Car has done a flat 9 @ 152mph so far on street legal tires.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
