Are -10's the Garrett GT2871R Ball Bearing Turbos. You guys hav much info about the -10 in terms of when they come on boost, top end power etc? Do many gtrs hav this setup?

Cheers

Unless its on a 3L + I wouldnt go near them. I have RS's (pretty much -10's) on a 2.8 and they will be replaced with a set of -5's. Stupid choof choof turbo's

whats up with the last RB26 dyno post -5's @ 18psi and only 270rwkw ?? sure its pretty much a standard engine, but I had standard engine & standard turbos high flowed making exactly the same power at the same boost ??

theres quite a few others on there @18-19psi making around the 360rwkw mark ? doesn't look right

yeah stock turbos will make 270kw with some cam gear adjustment, 15psi and a good tune (my old car did and still does). still different cars get different results. no way to know what the tune is like, or the supporting mods etc or even how accurate the dyno is. at say 20psi I've seen -5s make between 300kw and 360kw. the mid point of around 330kw is about what they should make at that boost. anything more is gravy. :)

Wouldn't be surprised if they're -9's with a result like that

im glad i got -7's, they are so dam responsive, perfect for a quick street GTR...

my goal was to run around 280 - 300kw with the stock internals, but with sard fuel pump, nismo 600cc injectors, r34 gtr dumps/stainless front pipe/de-cat/3.5" cat back zorst, nistune, greddy cam gears, greddy profec b spec 2

so far only been road tuned on 18psi without cam gears dialed in, getting dyno tuned on the 12th of this month, hopinh for a solid number and a punchy mid range @ 20psi and gears dialed in

will post results in few weeks time :)

read through this whole thread and -9 > -7 from what i can see, also would a gtx3582r with .82 rear be compairable response to a pair of -5's? obviously be light switch power with the 35 but i was wondering if they would come on in a similar rpm.

I know time and time again people say just to buy garrets, HKS isn't worth the mark up.

BUT

would a GT-SS set up have ANY benefit, no matter how small, over a -9 set up ??

Also from my understanding, HKS kit comes with everything you need to install and the -9s are turbos only, would the cost be more comparable after you buy the rest of the necessary items to fit the -9s ?

thanks for any replies :)

    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
