Bloody hell!! im getting me a 3076!!!

Is it possible that the boost dropping off is because the turbo is starting to run outta puff?

Yeh we think the .82 is at its limit, this turbo is only meant to produce 525 engine horsepower lol

More likey exhaust gas pressure in the turbine housing. Unfortunately, turbine sizing is a trade off between response/spool and hp.

PJ is running this turbo on an SR and it is holding 25psi at 7400rpm - but he runs a T25/T28 HKS 1.12 ex housing vs NYTSKY's T3 Garrett .82.

I've no doubt there's still more in NYTSKY's setup if boost could be held - you can see the torque curve closely mimics the boost curve. If you can hold boost, torque will pull up and therefore hp at a given rpm. However, this maybe all that can be practically pushed through the .82 ex housing.

In any case its an awesome setup for a street car and no doubt more than a handfull for most of us. :thumbsup:

As soon as PJ put on the bigger housing the increase in HP was about 25rwkw from memory,

sweet. :) that is good power mate. it will be a big handful to punish now. :yes:

Thanks Richard! Taking the car to Skids on Sunday, so we will see how much of a handful it will be :)

Yeah its hard to say at this stage, he might just be pushing all the thing is keen to all around. I have seen higher numbers from them, but from more aggressive engine/boost/fuel setups and its hard to tell how dynos compare. 363rwkw on a Mainline is fair roaring it out, I'd expect this thing to be one of the more brutal "all around" RB25 setups anywhere.

Thanks for the comment! It will be and "all rounder" when i get this box sorted out.

Very nice Dave, very nice indeed!

Cheers mate :thumbsup:

Took the car out to stretch its legs.

All i can say is i need bigger brakes lol

Very punchy down low and just builds huge power all the way through.

But the rear end feels like its floating around under load. Ill need to get that looked at.

aftermarket diff? best thing I ever did to improve rear end feel in the GTSt

nice power curve BTW... I've got the same top end power in the R but yours is coming on way earlier and more linear... a good 500rpm earlier... gotta love the RB25 VCT... I'm assuming its is still standard capacity?

that E85 look like good stuff, wish we could get it reliably down here:(

it's about a 40 min drive from my work, 60 or so from home... If there was a closer one, I probably would have gone E85 by now...

I doubt i will for a while now that my tuner has farked awf to Georgie... :D lol

I really hope there are more in the next 12 months or so. I don't want this to go the some route as V Power Racing...

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
