more like too old and dated for 500hp.

If you want 500hp (now, one assumes thats @ the motor when you make no mention of rear wheels), then the good ole GT30 fits that.

If you mean 500rwhp, then thats GT35

To the engine.

Im getting a whole single turbo with the T04s set up for real cheap and I was wondering what its capabilities

If you mean the old HKS RB26 kit , split pulse single low cast manifold , the turbo should be a "TA"45S so the next size up from T04B/E/S .

A .

I don't have the ta45s I have the so called T4s "T04s" .Just wondering If i should sell it ,basicly new it was just reconditioned and now im thinking its not enough for me so i'm thinking about fitting a gt4088r down there.If it will fit?

For 500hp @ the motor, why on earth are you getting a turbo capable of around the 700hp mark @ the motor?

GT35 like i said will do 500hp. Best to get a turbo suited, rather than something not thats only going to add lag for no extra gain towards your goal

I assume its a HKS T04S. I had some stats on it as I used to have a HKS T04R and done a heap of research.

Its only a 500 or 550hp rated turbo and a GTR I drove with a HKS T04S turbo was massive responsive and still made 300kw atw. One of the best GTR's for power delivery I have driven... :P.

Will try and find the old info I have saved. I assume you have a HKS T04S kit?

To be sure if you can post pics of your turbo (front/back/side/ID Tag) I should be able to identify it for you - well at least which series anyway .

There is a lot of variation in what gets called "T04S" or "T04R" .

Normally T04"S" means the 3" or ~ 76mm 7/14 blade T04S series compressor and T04S 0.70 A/R comp housing on the front of a garden variety T4 cartridge .

T04R as in what HKS used to sell as a T04R turbo just had the "R" or 84mm 63T BCI-8D compressor wheel fited to a T04S turbocharger . I think HKS may have been cropping the T04 P trim turbine at one stage but thats nothing any reasonable turbo mob couldn't do .

I used to have a couple of pics of the HKS spec TA45S and if I can find them I'll post them .

I can't figure out how to put the pics but if you give me your email I could then.The guy that sold me the turbo just had it rebuild so its like new now and he said it was supposedly upgraded with a bigger wheel....and spooling full boost in the 5k range which i though pretty hight for a bb t04s..I guess i'll sell it and buy a t04r instead.

lol dont get a t04r. old technology

get a t04z!!!! (thats if the t04s isnt good enough)

The one I drove on a GTR was FULL BOOST 4000rpm and Flew like the clappers with massive midrange

first you need to decide what final power figure you want, and what you using it for? Drags, street, circuit etc etc...

I need a wall to belt my head against.

5000rpm??? for only 500hp? Madness.

Maybe you've missed it the two times before

GT35

Not T04R, not T04S, not even T04Z - GT35!

Ball bearing T04S ? That would have to be either a large frame P trim/60-1 or a T04Z . How many compressor blades ?

A .

It has 8 blades ,I didnt receive it yet ,its on its way and for the gt35r its out of my price range for the T4 version.

I'm looking for 550 to 600 hp at the fly ,going to be street /drag once in a while.Dont mind a turbo that has a little lag like ex:boosting at 4500 to 5000.

For 8 bladed , what I call 8/16 because they have 8 full height a 8 splitter blades , I think you must mean th old T04B series . There were actually a few 6/12 balded wheels in the B series - the largestbeing the T04B H trim .

Pics when it turns up , A .

So is the T04B rated to more power then the T04s?I have pics i just dont know how to post them...

No the other way round I think . All the T04B wheels I've seen are ~ 70mm OD or 2.75" where the T04S ones were ~ 76mm or about 3" .

My lists show T04B 6/12 (39 to 70 trims) and 8/16 bladed (39 to 63 trims) , plus T04S (TB41 ?) as 7/14 bladed (34 to 58 trim) .

A lot of variation here so I need ID tag numbers and some pics of the turbo preferably with the housings off to know for sure .

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
