gtr turbos on an rb20det

[oh to dream]

as a gtr is too expensive i figured a gts-4 would be the next best option as, all wheel drive would be one of the reasons for purchasing a gtr. what psi does the stock gts tubo operate at and is it possible to put the stock gtr turbos with manifold on the rb20det? i am uncertain about intake planium and am thinking that gtr intercooler would be best.

any oppinions you are able to give to my query would be much appreciated.

The best thing you could do for ideas is buy High Octain 3 and 4 and watch Ketzel buy and build a gts-4...

That should help out with your options

cheers

We purchased a gts4 about a month ago for the same reason.

They go fairly reasonable for what you pay although not as good as a gtst because of the weight difference.

I don't regret buying it because its great around corners.

Also if you do buy one fit a pod filter or HKS Panel Filter and you will notice the difference.

In standard form they run 10psi.

If you are going to run more boost make sure you get it dynoed to get your a/f right other wise goodbye Turbo and RB.

As for running the Twin Turbo Not sure but would like to know myself....

Sorry for crapping on a bit.

Std RB26 manifolds dont fit the humble old RB20, and a GTR turbo wont bolt onto the std RB20 manifold. (Single GTR turbo on RB20 not a good diea unless it is an aftermarket GTR turbo)

Then you have to tee the turbos off the same AFM etc etc. Can be done, but you would have to be able to weld and fabricate your won manfiolds to make it worthwhile from a $$$ perspective.

Id be interested to see how an RB20 with custom manifolds and R34 BB GTR turbos would go????

I think you would end up with a fair bit of lag running GTR turbos on an RB20.

The boost response wouldnt be sensational but it would be interesting to see how much power it throws at the back wheels.

Don't try and reinvent the wheel.

RB20 buildups are well documented - there's almost 20 years of experience with these motors now!

RB26 motors are now more commonly available and are dropping in price (Dan, if he buys yours I'll hit you up for a slab!)

best way to work a gts4 in my opinion: drop in an rb26!

thanks for ideas hi octane 3/4 sounds like a good idea, good import action as well
