Bin the 10cm housing. They make about the same peak power, but at 4,500rpm you will be losing 50-60rwkws :)

Id love to but $$$'s just dont see that happening anytime soon so will have to stick with it and see how it goes.

Used this to try a quick theory i had regarding d-jetro and other rb engines so i fired one up on a R33 first then fiinally fitted it up into this R31.

Std Rb20

Rx7 injectors

Thai plenum

Trust TD06-l2 -20g (2 litre nirvana)

rb26 d jetro

277rwkw @1.2bar

408Nm@6100

Real nice car to drive, lots of usuable power and screams like crazy over 4500 and has phenomenaly strong mid and top... will interesting to see it lap winton this weekend,

I forgot to ask Trent/Wheezy, is the car running an EBC, the full L2 kit and what size waste gate spring???

Cheers Ben

Standard Trust waste gate (42.5mm) with 0.7bar spring IIRC

Blitz ID3 (Dual Solenoid) EBC

Ah ok, my kit came with the Type R 47mm gate and i'll be running the 1.5bar spring but still contemplating if i should get an EBC or tune it with the turbotech first then borrow one to see if there are any gains to warrant the extra $$$'s

Im looking into other turbo options now as well :P

what turbo are you looking at?

Looking at viable options at them moment, would be great to get the L2 8cm but budget doesn't stretch that far at present but in no rush.

Want to match the turbo to the rest of the set up as best as possible so if that means waiting till i can afford to then so be it.

I too have the Type R gate (I have the pro L2 Kit), however I thought it was only 42ish mm in diameter....

I might check what the catalogue says tonight (and actually check the gate when i cbf)

grandmasterb : Spec R in the kit is 42.7mm, there is also a 51 and 61mm gate and some smaller ones. (Trust 2008 catalogue)

If you want a 1bar gate spring it can be ordered VIA an autobarn or GCG (if they will deal with you direct)....

If they are not in stock Im sure they wont take more than a month from Trust.

Raz: I think some cam gear and a slightly more aggressive tune could fetch 300 easily, but would be leaning on the engine. I would personally only do it for a dyno figure and pull the tune back again :P

Is that an Australian Trust catalogue Wheezy cause all the ones i've looked at online don't list the smallest (Type S) which is a 34mm, then there are Type R and C which are 47mm. I've just been using the GReddy US site so maybe its different???

I just ordered a new spring and gaskets from Japan as everyone i spoke to in Oz (including Autobarn) said they couldn't help me :starwars:

I still cant believe the numbers Trent was able to get out of your set with only 1.2bar and no cams/cam gears, i was only aiming for 240ish with my set up :devil:

Yup was an Aussie catalogue, they are sitting around all over my house LOL

You called the wrong autobarn's then :), I can tell you who to call in VIC, SA, and QLD (I'm not sure what state your in)

we just got rid of a heap of trust parts frigging cheap.....(autobarn as a whole) GCG is the new distributer.

FYI: Trust Type-R gates (and other types IIRC) come in various sizes.

i'm happy to hear yet another great result from the RB20. these sorta threads keep me motivated to support the little ripper.

who gives a shit about lag down low when you have all hell breaking loose up top! :(

agreed!

ive got a 535HP rated low mount internal gate turbo which will be going on my rb20.

just gotta get the rest of the parts i need, afm & injectors.

    • Why not? Since mines been built, I've used low boost maybe 5 times.
    • Yeah, so widen your search to any Nissan speedo first, then go wider if needed. I will say though, that there is a better than even chance that what I said first will likely come into play. They quite possibly won't come apart without damage. I tried to disassemble a stepper gauge that I wanted to repair. There was no way that needle was coming off the spindle, and I could not see how the spindle would come out of the mechanism behind. Assembled once, never to be disassembled, was my conclusion. Could be the same on the R34 cluster. Failing that - take the cluster to a workshop that specialises in automotive instrument work. There's usually at least one in every Australian city. They'll either be able to do it for you for small cost, or tell you it can't be done. It might be that "it can't be done" unless you follow some arcane procedure, including trickiness to glue it back together or something, that only experienced techs know.
    • Well, given that I, an engineer, almost never bring out the torque wrench to tighten up chassis bolts, despite fully knowing the theory, and instead rely on feel, which I happen to know is exactly how the majority of mechanics do things, should tell you the level of actual peril that exists from not achieving exactly 88 Nm of torque. How about if I just say then that 88Nm is at the lower end of the correct wheel nut torque range? Everyone knows how to tighten a wheel nut, right? And almost no-one ever brings out the torque wrench for that task
    • Don't be ridiculous. "2-3 ugga duggas or one Oof. You have to use Oof on tie rods because you can't get an ugga dugga on there." Is not helping the guy at all.
    • I have done a lot of research before posting here and on gtruk forum. couldn't find anything. I have my gauges all part except the needle itself. the needle has a extremely small hole in the center, but the shaft going to the needle is extremely small and appears to have nothing to index it either. doesn't seem strong enough to simple pry or pull without damaging something. Already tried the old spoon trick on a extra triple meter I have from a gtt, but no luck. the center cap comes off easily but the hole in the meter face plate aren't big enough to get over the needle itself. figured this would be my best place to find someone who might have actually removed theirs. wonder if there is some type of small pin press tool to push the pin in while pulling the needle base off.
