Would they suit my set up??

Power FC

Dual 3" > 3.5"

Sub Zero manifolds and dump pipes

260' in and ex cams (Tomei)

cam gears (Tomei)

4" Trust cooler

700cc Sard Injectors

600hp Fuel pump

HKS Twin plate clutch

any help on the turbo's would be great..

P.S. This car is not being built as a Drag car, just a quick streeter

If you are after 600hp you should buy a T51R SPL. Nice and streetable with the ability to get up to 650hp with more boost. A 5 inch exhaust would make it spool really quick, like 2 bar at 2,000rpm. Perfect for third gear burnouts with the standard CA18 gearbox. Need a single plate copper clutch though, so it hooks up mad. If you get a carbon bonnet you will go faster too cause it's 50kg lighter than a GT-R bonnet.

My friend's holden ute has 600hp with big chrome rims and he's making 600hp with the standard turbos but with a GCG 700hp Hi-flow cause you make the horsepower that their numbers say you will.

I think the GT-SS and GT-RS are too new to be a common turbo conversion in Aus. Plenty of 2530's + 40's.... Merli was doing a bit of research about the new ones, he might be the one to ask.

As far as web-board comments and opinions, the UK GT-R board has a couple of people that have tried both... and swear by the GT-SS. They claim the GT-RS is too big and meant for a stroked engine..

hey 600 is this a rb25 or an rb26?

I just clicked b4 I chastised inasnt's post and he is right

the ss are 320-350 hp rated the rs I not to sure but say 400 450.

If your on a rb 25 gt 3040 or bigger is required on an rb 26 the ss would be adequete but you would need to run high boost to make the big power. but that is no problem provided the car is tuned well ie no detonation.

cheers

a t51 kai would be nice on either motor spl being a bit to big for what you want

Straight from the HKS website:

GT-SS (low mount, bolt on)

GT-RS (low mount, bolt on)

GT2835 (Full Special Kit)

A comparison:

That last comparison has changed since i last saw it on their website. The old pic was easier to read and showed what order each individual turbo had as far as supporting power, response, etc. Obviously all of HKS's graphs will be skewed to make their product look better, but the power figures will vary from car to car obviously depending on the other mods to support these turbos.

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
