Hey guys,

I've just recently had a R32 GT skyline (RB20det). And I have been taking up drifting. Ive found that that stock turbo aint enough go. So I've been trying to look for a decent turbo with enough go. Im looking for a turbo bigger then the origanal one, but not too crazy. I'm looking at the price range of about $2500 tops. Not looking for a FULLY HETIC SUPER FAST turbo. Just something to nice and bit bigger then origanal. Would also like to know where to get it from. I live in QLD/Brisbane.

Cheers, Nick.

have you thought about other associated expenses?

fuel system, intercooler, exhaust, engine management?

much besides, here is a massive topic

all about turbo upgrades on rb20s. you can learn a lot about the power figures, and other mods you might require.

First of all Nick congrats!

Anyone can turn the wheel and stab the throttle. Doing controlled opposite lock 360's around a cone is harder than people think.

And you really seem to get the hang of it in the end.

:D And for god sake DO NOT go out and do it on the street, some people think just because they have done one skid pan day they think they are D1 drivers.

Keep it up!

Thanks man.

Yeah, I'm only 15, so i wont be doing it on the streets. Hense being on the track, its supposed to stop me from doing it on the streets. Which is what it will do. Thanks for the support.

    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
    • I suppose it was relatively stock too, the JZ motor handle most mods thrown at them without even breaking a sweat
