any news 'boostdR' about your choice with turbo setup? how did u go with the gtrs v's 618z?

i am looking at the same thing & possibly building up an rb30 with 618z's (my current gtss setup will be too small for an rb30 if i take this path)

im not sure where matt is up to but ive got my setup running.

my 'forklift' rb30 (tongue in cheek dirtgarage lol) with garrett -10's made 270.9awkw @ 6500rpm on 10psi, rich run-in tune.

final tune is booked for next week :) very happy with results thus far

i posted a thread here with dyno graph if u want more info: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Pr...la-t277399.html

Hi all,

I ended up with a 89mm sleeved bore rb263# ?? HKS GTRS turbo's, E85 and 8.7 to 8.8:1 Comp for E85. I have had it on the Dyno for a initial tune. Maxed the fuel pump out @ 534kw and 20psi. I have a new fuel pump now and will install and get it happening.

Will be playing with the ingnition trasition onto boost and the cam gears for some extra response. I am using Stainless Mani's but may see if the 6boost ones fit without having to move all my lines.

Before and after. Similar response with more power

For those wanting to know if the HKS version of turbo is better. I can say they still surge slightly when loading up on boost in a high gear/low rpm...sound like a Cho cho train. I have no BOV's. Installing the std BOV's would prob fix most part throttle surge...but it's very minor and doesn't bother me.

Me personally, I'd go for HKS GT-RS twins interestingly. I'm not arguing with what your tuner says - but if I had not heard that and for some strange reason I wanted to go for twins at that power level, HKS GT-RS would be floating around the top of my list. Going for under 272deg duration is probably not something I'd do when going for turbos that size/power that high however.

The CAMS I ended up using are much smaller than 272 with just under 10mm. They work extremmely well. The Prelude was that we actually ordered a set of JUN 272's for a customers track GTR with -10's but by mistake got the lower duration and figured we will give them a go...results were very impressive and suprising to say the least.

534kw YIKES!

u make me want to switch to E85 sooner rather than later! with that fuel u should be able to run 30psi without a problem.

is this power reading rwkw, awkw or engine dyno?

amazing power from the good old low mount setup, congrats :P:):P

that 380kw is a lie, check out the intake temps of 63degrees,

lol, agreed. Not sure what the correction would be. I have other graphs for 372 @ IT of ~21degree's

good spot

I more put it up for a Curve comparsion

534kw YIKES!

It's at the Fly Marko. Was 457kw at the wheels.

Fuel setup currently is a GTR pump and single 044. I have another 044 to go in. Injectors(1000cc) are pretty much out of flow already even with my high rail pressure.

haha, atleast u admit it lol.

when are you taking it to test it at eastern creek

I don't live in Syd anymore. I'm in Adelaide. Will be at Mallala this weekend.

Will be Pit Crewing at Eastern Creek on the 3-5th of Sep. Might bring it up to WSID on the truck.....May need a couple of spare gearboxes...

When will be you be at Mallala on the weekend, weather permitting I guess? Would not mind coming to have a look if you wouldnt mind...

that figure of 457awkw is aligned with what my tuner advised i could achieve if i switched to e85.

what exhuast diameter are u running?

When will be you be at Mallala on the weekend, weather permitting I guess? Would not mind coming to have a look if you wouldnt mind...

Will be there on Sat. All day

Come say Hi.

    • I'm looking for some real world experiences/feed back from anyone who has personally ran a EFR7670 with a 1.05 exhaust housing or a .83 I'm leaning towards the .83 because its a street car used mostly for spirited driving in the canyons roads. I"m not looking for big numbers on paper. I want a responsive powerband that will be very linear to 8000 rpm. I dont mind if power remains somewhat flat but dont want power to drop off on top. The turbo I've purchased is a 1.05, although the mounting flange T3 vs T4 and internal vs external waste gates are different on both housings, I not concern about swapping parts or making fabrication mods to get what I want. Based on some of the research I've done with chat gpt, the 1.05 housing seems to be the way to go with slightly more lag and future proofing for more mods but recommends .83 for best response/street car setup. AI doesn't have the same emotions as real people driving a GTR so I think you guys will be able to give me better feed back 😀   
    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
    • This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?
    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
    • OK, onto filling. So I don't really have any pics, but will describe the process as best I can. The USDM workshop manual also covers it from TM-285 onwards. First, make sure the drain plug (17mm) is snug. Not too tight yet because it is coming off again. Note it does have a copper washer that you could replace or anneal (heat up with a blow torch) to seal nicely. Remove the fill plug, which has an inhex (I think it was 6mm but didn't check). Then, screw in the fill fitting, making sure it has a suitable o-ring (mine came without but I think it is meant to be supplied). It is important that you only screw it in hand tight. I didn't get a good pic of it, but the fill plug leads to a tube about 70mm long inside the transmission. This sets the factory level for fluid in the trans (above the join line for the pan!) and will take about 3l to fill. You then need to connect your fluid pump to the fitting via a hose, and pump in whatever amount of fluid you removed (maybe 3 litres, in my case 7 litres). If you put in more than 3l, it will spill out when you remove the fitting, so do quickly and with a drain pan underneath. Once you have pumped in the required amount of clean ATF, you start the engine and run it for 3 minutes to let the fluid circulate. Don't run it longer and if possible check the fluid temp is under 40oC (Ecutek shows Auto Trans Fluid temp now, or you could use an infrared temp gun on the bottom of the pan). The manual stresses the bit about fluid temperature because it expands when hot an might result in an underfil. So from here, the factory manual says to do the "spill and fill" again, and I did. That is, put an oil pan under the drain plug and undo it with a 17mm spanner, then watch your expensive fluid fall back out again, you should get about 3 litres.  Then, put the drain plug back in, pump 3 litres back in through the fill plug with the fitting and pump, disconnect the fill fitting and replace the fill plug, start the car and run for another 3 minutes (making sure the temp is still under 40oC). The manual then asks for a 3rd "spill and fill" just like above. I also did that and so had put 13l in by now.  This time they want you to keep the engine running and run the transmission through R and D (I hope the wheels are still off the ground!) for a while, and allow the trans temp to get to 40oC, then engine off. Finally, back under the car and undo the fill plug to let the overfill drain out; it will stop running when fluid is at the top of the levelling tube. According to the factory, that is job done! Post that, I reconnected the fill fitting and pumped in an extra 0.5l. AMS says 1.5l overfill is safe, but I started with less to see how it goes, I will add another 1.0 litres later if I'm still not happy with the hot shifts.
