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 .

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
