I've always liked the xr6 turbo BUT there is a trade off... my mate made 390kw with his and blew many transmissions, diffs and uni joints. What a torque monster though

Drop that donk in a gtr (only if) = win :)

The BF and FG will make >400rwkw with the stock turbo, exhaust, diff and gearbox all day everyday, the BAs won't handle more than 250 before blowing both of them up though.

Haha, I to thought about putting the Barra motor in a GTR and the adaptor plate wasn't really an issue, the hieght of the 4.0 on the otherhand with the 4WD sump will pose a few issues :(

You would definitely need a massive bonnet bulge to fit it in, quite a tall motor.

I made 300kw in my BA when everything was pretty much standard. Gearbox and diff lasted less than a month haha. I guess that's what you get with 1000 odd NM.

PS: An FG XR6 won't make 400kw with a standard turbo but the F6 will.

Racepace built rb26

PTE 6262 twin scroll setup

6boost manifold

Stock cams

Id1000's

E85 + twin intank Walbro's

Power FC

This was on 23psi

probably a bit more boost in her too

Do you have an RPM graph for the X axis?

would love see what rpm boost and power is made

Good thread revival Buraz!

How did u squeeze 2 intank walbros? Do u have 32,33 or 34?

It's an R33 Gtr, Racepace did all the fab work and all the fuel setup. I couldn't exactly tell you what adapters etc they used, i didn't see it all while outside the car. I know they made it all in house and there was lots of work involved.

probably a bit more boost in her too

This is the only graph I have!!

Probably is but didn't want to push it, engine has lots of track days and kms on it since rebuild I just wanna keep it safe until I have it freshened up.

Even with a Nitto 3.2 I could not make it :no:

But have not given up just yet :unsure: this was 98 pump

Going to upgrade the fuel line and exhaust. Do a flex tune , should make it on 98 and then see what E85 does to the Graph ????

What AFMs are you using there?

everyone in this thread good at changing boxes?

I'm up to 4 broken after doing 2 in a weekend at Racewars not long ago

So far I've stripped 3rd gear twice, sheared the input shaft once and the latest appears to be a broken reverse/5th selector fork.

In saying that they only ever break when no mechanical sympathy is shown, if you are gentle and select the gear and the roll off the clutch they seem to be fine (as oppose to smashing through gears and kicking clutches)

make well over 400 man.

make well over 400 man.

Apart from the problems I have had since the build it goes pretty quick now , very linear. Feels great on corners, no surprises/

It will be interesting to see how a bigger Dump and Cat makes it respond and what it adds to the overall performance :/

It will make a more then noticeable difference pete

Hi Joey, hope your right, hate wasting money.

There seems to be 2 different opinions on this subject but I am going with what you blokes have told me from your experience as I like first hand feedback not from books:)

    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
    • Assuming your brake pads are not worn right down, I'd add a little brake fluid. Is there any sign of a brake fluid leak?
    • Hello all,  I need of some help. On my drive home my handbrake light lit up and started flashing. When I got home I checked my handbrake sensor under the centre console and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have scanned my car via the consult port, no codes shown. Checked my brake fluid as well which is half full. Tried unplugging the brake master but it didn't change anything. Thoughts on what it could be? The master float doesn't seem to be stuck. My car is an 1998 ER34 sedan GT. No hicas but has ABS Photos below 👇🏾
