After some major research I've settled for these turbos, was just wondering who in SA is running these turbos? Would love to hear your opinion on em :)

Also, open question: I'm getting them fitted at the same time as my Trust MX Extension front pipes...would this combo run fine with the stock ECU? I'm still hunting for a Power FC atm.

Im running N1s in my GTR with turbo back trust exhaust air filters Power Fc stock injectors stock fuel pump and stock afm's and im makinmg 296.5rwkw... comes on boost pretty early and they pull hard i like em

Need some clarification about the tune. I was under the impression that the stock ECU doesn't have any facilities for tuning, only an aftermarket ECU does...thats right, right?

you will be fine i had the n1's on with a stock ecu and had no drama's

Hi, I run N1s on my car... very nice! I have 326kw at wheels with smooth delivery.

Ryan is running 2860 turbos I reckon... similar but they hit a little harder. Shane (PURESX) is running 'em (2860s) too and they are nice!

If you are gonna go to the expense of changing turbos why not change computer?? A power FC will make a good difference to power and lots of people can tune 'em.

Ahhhh I see you are still lookin' for one!!

Yeah, seen a few FC's in the FS section, and Slidewize are doing new ones for $980 delivered...so I'm just shopping right now, still have a week or 2 before the car goes into Boostworx and I'm just being stingy atm :)

It's on the cards though, all about the timing of the purchase now...darn old cars! Still have a squeak on the front right suspension area thats driving me nuts!

how much smaller and less kws would a set of r34 N1s make to the GT-SSs?

on a GTR R33

This chart my answer some questions. BTW there are 3 slightly different versions of R34 N1 turbos.

I'm currently running the 2860 -5's which are a smidge bigger than the N1's and still relatively responsive with good power.

Is anyone running a pair of 2860 -10's or HKS GT-RS (virtually the same I think) on their GTR that can comment on response sacrifice vs power gain?

The GTR ECU's cam be remapped so that is an option with the question about the ECU tune ability. Also if you are going to go for a Power FC it's worth while going for a D-Jetro. One of the member on here made 290 KW with his GTR when setting up his D-Jetro but made 312kw what the same tune and the AFM's removed (they were in there as a pod mounting bracket until he made something else up).

Don't think I'm gonna change to MAF sensors, I heard its not as "drivable" ie, great for power but mine is a daily :P

Ask people who have MAP based ECU's and you will find that that is an internet myth.

If want to ask someone in the know send Blue32 a PM.

    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY  
    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
