Hey i am about to put twin turbos back on my car after a problem with the single turbo conversion and the pits not passing it, now i cant decide between the 2860r - 5's or the -7's. I have a single gt3076r on the car now and its just not got enough power, its only making mid 300hp range though, im hoping for around the 420hp range or so with reasonable boost levels and not too much lag. I dare say the 3076r is too responsive, though it is a 3L bottom end, but im thinking of going back to the complete rb26 engine setup.

Now could any perth guys with preferably stock cammed rb26 take me for a 2 min drive to see how the lag is on the 2 different setups. Im mainly interested in the feel of the -5's, i have already been in a car with the -7s (though it was with poncams and built motor). Even a spin in a -7 equipped car with stock cams would be ideal, as i dont want to upgrade cams in near future.

I live in the northern suburbs (Joondalup area) but am willing to meet anywhere really, give me a PM if someone can possibly help.

cheers

Hey Mate,

My car has been in the workshop getting 2860-5's, 6 Boost, etc.... Its a built motor with Arias 87mm Forgies, etc.. Tunning will be performed tomorrow or Monday then I'll get the car back!!

sorry i thought the engine just went in today cuz i saw one of the mechanics working on the underbody and looked like he was aligning something( probably gearbox or engine onto its mounts) but i was outside when i saw him doing the work so didnt get a good look. nice car btw :) . saw your engine while its still on stands as well.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
