Sleepy was kind enough to take me for a spin in his skyline with a GT-RS hks turbo, very responsive, was wondering if anyone on here has a Garret GT3076r on a rb25 I can compare it to please? Don't really want to drive it, just sit in the passengers seat and see how it goes.

Am thinking about both turbo's atm.

thx

Your spot on wanting to find a ride with the Turbo your considering. Sorry I dont know any1 with this set-up. It also depends on other mods you have/planning.

It's not the same but perhaps the forced induction threads may help. Use the search facility at the base of the main page.

Forced Induction - Search for "3076r"

I will also be getting a 3076r installed towards the end of Jan start of Feb, hopefully if John (trojan) is free by then.. but i will be getting a water meth injection kit installed as well, so it will be a bit different (increased timing etc) from a standard setup..

Yeah I new Mick (bullet32) was getting a 3076r, was hoping someone in canberra already had one, as I'm hoping to get the work started sometime this month. I have most of the supporting mods for this turbo already. How much is the water meth injection setup costing you? evl?

Water meth kits are around $400AU to $800AU+ depending on the type of kit you get and what extras it has (safety cut off switches etc). As for installation, I was thinking of doing it myself as it isnt very hard to do, but John is installing the 3076r + tuning it, so I might as well get him to install the lot..

I have a Snow Performance stage 2 boost cooler waiting to go into my car, just remember though that a WMI kit does need you to check that the reservoir has fluid in it regularly, if the car is tuned to make full use of the WMI kit and its empty your engine may not like it.

yeah i've looked into this, there are different brands (Devils Own WM kit) which include fluid level switches that notifies you if the WM level is low, i've also heard of timing retard/cutout switches as well, they detect if the reservoir is running low or empty, and if so, then decrease the timing and/or boost pressure by going into safe mode (a bit dearer but its worth it if it ends up saving the engine)..

    • 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?
