Hey guys,

Posting this for my brother who also has a 32gtr. Has the following engine mods:

Built Motor: Forged pistons, ARP bolts, eagle rods, N1 oil/water pump, 33 crank, rebuilt head etc etc. Basically all the usual good bits

Turbos: Rebuilt R34 bb gtr turbos with N1 steel wheels

Exhaust: Upgraded Y piece with a 3" cat back. Dumps are stock

Atm boost is stock (~10-11ish psi judging by the factory gauge) whilst the motor is being worn in with only the boost restrictor removed & still retaining the OEM solenoid.

Fuel system is stock.

Looking at raising the boost shortly so my brother called a reputable tuner here in Perth. He suggested the following:

bosch 040 pump $500 installed

Greddy Profec B $550 installed/setup

Nistune $880.

+ Up the fuel pressure a little to achieve ~17psi reliably without having to go bigger injectors

Was thinking about purchasing the Nismo pump for $400 as its a straight drop in and setting up/ installing the profec B myself (done these before) to save a little $$$.

Questions are: is the volume of air produced by the 34gtr turbos greater than the stock 32's?

If we run 14-15psi without the tune would this be safe? Assuming the bigger fuel pump is in place

How much boost can these turbos produce whilst keeping in there efficiency & what would an approx power figure be?

Is it safe to up the fuel pressure a little for this application? Bigger injectors are a better choice but then + $800 for some sards which we'd rather avoid if not necessary

Thanx

Mike

N1 wheels in the front and rear? If so, 20-24psi is what most run being they arent ceramic.

Basically the same as -7 or GT-SS

Might not get there with just rail pressure as personally i wouldn't push R32 GTR injectors harder than factory pressures.

They are 15 years old and could fast become a weak link that could result in a pretty nasty death :thumbsup:

With a tune, should be a nice 300-330rwkw car if you get injectors, VERY fast streeter.

Thanx for the fast reply.

The receipt says R34 BB gtr turbos. Rebuilt with N1 steel wheels (exhaust). Previouis owner said the compressor is standard. Would N1 steel wheels fit the stock housing? Or is the housing changed. Arnt the compressor wheels steel from the factory & turbine ceramic?

Yeh should go nicely. Atm is slower than mine: stock with 14psi & cat back, but thatllm change.

thanx for the advice

270/280 or so i'd imagine direct replacement... on around 18-20psi

Thanx Nismoid. Was about to post another reply as i just found the answers i was looking for in 2 threads on stock size steel turbines vrs N1 specs from 06 & 07 with your replies. Your info was consistant :). Should have searched a little longer be4

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
