Well... if you want to get technical, it runs a two stage boost. First 5 psi and then up to 7psi at higher revs. You can earth the one wire and make it 7 psi all the time though. This is the same for the R33. R32's run 10 psi.

Just to clarify, I'm talking about GTT's, GTSt's here... not GTR's

Found it, R34 GTT Stock boost is 7psi, just under 0.5 bar.

R34 GTR is same as 32/33 GTR... which is what Topaz was referring to I believe.

Wow, I really thought the GTT's were 11psi like the 32GTR's. 7psi is shit! :P

Not sure what 33GTR's are stock, 34GTR's are 1bar stock.............................. I'm 95% sure

That changes when you get the RB20 actuator yeah??

10 psi??? :P

You're doing that to your car aye??

i am running 0.85 bar(12 psi) daily.... izit bad then?? lol

12 psi will be fine, but you may want to check that its not leaning out at all. Upgrading your fuel pump is always a good idea when running more boost. Probably wouldn't go too much higher than that until you have some other bits and pieces to support it.

10 psi??? :)

Yep thats right :D Cause the R32's are 2 litres, they run 10 psi to make up for the smaller capacity. By changing to the RB20 wastegate actuator, you are getting 10 psi instead of 7 psi. This is a lot better than a boost controller as there is no chance of boost spikes, therefore safer for your turbo. You still need to ground that one wire to get rid of the two stage boost, and then bypass the solenoid. There is a tutorial somewhere here on SAU :)

Link??

So with the actuator you don't need a boost controller??

Here you go Mark ;)

clicky

With the actuator you don't need a boost controller. This is how it works

First, ground the one wire mentioned in the tutorial. This will change it to constant high boost mode meaning istead of a two stage boost of 5 psi then 7 psi above 4500 rpm, you are running 7 psi all the time.

If you put the RB20 wastegate actuator in and bypass the solinoid, you now have 10 psi all the time. You have to bypass the solinoid cause it will limit you to 7 psi. The solinoid is what is used to create the two stage boost. Since you are not running a two stage boost anymore, you don't need it :P

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
