What you do to any motor to make it more responsive works on all of them, it just the power level that changes with capacity, so what you do to a 2.6 will work the same for a 3.2, you will just make more power with a 3.2 then a 2.6 with the same response EDIT: except for turbos obviously

And response is relative to power level so if you want to make your 2.6 responsive give us an idea of power wanted and we can try and guide you to make it as responsive as possible, but for the sake of this discussion you CAN NOT beat a stock turbo stock cam 2.6 with the right breathing mods and dialed in cams and properly tuned if response is what you are after

This has been discussed and is quiet well known what works and what doesn't but if your that worried about running away with threads then this shouldn't have been started in the first place and the OP should have looked at the 2.6 dyno thread for his answer

But you will never ever get stock turbos to push 400kw at the wheels, but a 6262 on a 3.2 will do 400kws at the wheel with the same response as a stock turbo stock cam 2.6

If have a question or an idea for someone that has asked a question then by all means post if not stop spreading the hate and go look at one of the other zillion thread on this forum

Peter, yeah mate cruising around its really nice, just the fuel pump is killing my life ATM, like I said boost is throttle dependent and at 110 car sits around 2600 rpm and at light throttle it sits around 2-4psi positive pressure, I'm on full E85 tune though and havent done any economy runs yet, still loving the way it comes onto boost HARD :D

Maybe this thread should be renamed then because it is titled refers to a 2600cc motor not other capacities.

So this has gone way off topic as others have stated. If the op has decided to go a 26/30 Then fine start another thread.

And for all its worth, without him experiencing proper responsive setups in a 26 then the advice given is poor to say the least as he has no reference to how good a responsive 26 setup is. Especially as a daily.

HI Mick, thats what is all about, enjoying your ride, not worrying about someone else's car or what they are doing with it or what fn thread you are on, help them if you can, try to change their mind if what they are doing is really dumb. but at the end of the day, I have NEVER had a car I hated, I have pushed and sworn at them but as soon as they stared I am in love again:)

I am sure I should not be on this site as I know nothing about your love for the RB26, as far as I am concerned I have a R34GTR and want it to do what I want , the same as your wife,I have been married 3 times so you can work out how that works,haha

All you blokes that have helped me by stopping doing something or getting me to do something else, THANKS

I think my attitude is not a SAU club one, and I have nothing to offer anyone, but I have enjoyed you company

Enjoy your ride and F the rest

Have you ?, what does it matter, he knows his car and he knows what more he wants from it

That's how I am, if someone asks a question I help if I can from what I have experienced over the years no matter what thread it's in in stead of giving them shit for posting in a thread that isn't exactly what was asked to start with causing ill feeling towards other forum users and making them wonder why they came here in the first place

Hi XGTRX I totally agree with you and I will rectify that by getting a run in a standard R34GTR, not to do it was dumb as I am sure with the standard twin setup they would be very nice to drive BUT that did not happen and here I am :/

I am sure that a standard R34GTR would not be a pig to drive as the car I bought, it was 337.8awkw and the worst car I have sat my ass in to drive, brake your neck at 6k to 10k , but very noisy at the lights trying to beat a golf cart across the road

From what has been said they are not a responsive car without revs as most small motors.. BUT did the standard RB26 have to be modified to be a reasonable street car, shit is is old tech but at the time, great tech and I do not mean just speed, they had everything and the best car I watched kicking V8s asses:)

But now I am here I will make the best of it, I use mods made for the Rs to get the response I want and this should not hurt anyone else, I am not modifying their car and when they get the cobwebs off for a drive I hope they enjoy it, I get mine spinning every day just to get off the heart machine :)

Well it is important isn't it or he won't know what it is like. He might be quite happy with what he is considering but he won't know what a responsive 26 setup is like will he.... It's called an informed decision not a decision based on someone else's preference. That's my point.

I am just concerned that he will not be making the best choice unless he knows what the different choices are and experiences them first hand. Sorry if this is too logical before you spend $30k+.

XGTRX. "Response and 2.6" don't go hand in hand. They're buckets of shit and those cranks should be used as road base. The quicker you understand this, the better for everyone in the GTR community.

Interesting. I suppose that's why people in the GTR community keep building them to this day. You must remember what it's like to have a fast, reliable, daily driver....remember before the stroker kit went in.

We don't have to, we have more then one car :P

We do however know what insane power feels like and with unbelievable response cause welovefastcars :D

What's logic got to do with building GTRs

Yeah so you should be the last person advising someone on a daily.

There's a reason strokers are so popular, cause they're so good

No doubt, no argument here.

The 26 is more than capable though.

Proper twin setup and they are a very enjoyable responsive streetable combination. So my point is before a newbie makes a decision to go stroker he should experience a few 26 setups. That's all. You don't need a stroker to enjoy driving a GTR, I don't care what the stroker fanboys say. Suppose someone should experience both before making a decision with all other things considered, especially reliabilty.

Yeah so you should be the last person advising someone on a daily.

Why's that, I drive both mine on when ever I like and both would be perfectly fine doing daily duties and the 32 did so for many years, but cause I can afford more then one car I shouldn't give advise cause it makes me some dumb fark hanging around forum yeah

And I do all the machanical work my self and I chose what parts I use, the only thing I don't do is tune, when ya have someone like Scott why would I want to learn to

Oh and hello SteveO

But he has already spent money on having the single turbo changed and tuned and still isn't happy with it, so his next option is to look at the engine capacity.

Personally I wouldn't be changing the turbo charger at the same time, I would just do the stroker and see how it drives after that

That didn't take long. Did it. Egomaniac that's all you are. The type of guy that shows publicly how much of moron you really are. I choose to drive my 33 everyday. My other cars I choose not to. And your 32 was a 26. That confirms what I have been saying... Thanks for that

... Oh and I remember in past your 30 was going to be daily driven.. obviously not.

The last I remember, I can hang around, it's a public forum. I have the same entitlements as anyone else including you.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
