Hypergear what do you think the issue is with your latest 264rwkw turbo? The response is amazing and 260kw is a very good power output but it seems to have a huge hole in the midrange torque, is that the tune? what is up with that, is it because of the boost creep that it seems to get better?

So is an SS2 better than G3 with FNT??? or Billet wheels of the G3 Alfa version???

Prices?? and which is the best response?? I will be happy to get best response and reach 400RWHP..

Both SS2 and G3 are tested on the same platform and the SS2 performed better and it is truly more responsive to drive on road.

The original design goal is some thing has excellent driving ability while still have the max power out put as the G3. It’s also the fist turbo with FNT integration. That worked really well. Apart from focusing on its response and peak power, notice its torque, of how its wide and spread, that is the most important factor in creating excellent driving ability. It did cost more that is due to 4 extra machine hours.

I believe The ATR43SS-2 is the ultimate choice for responsive 400rwhp with the best driving ability.

On the other hand Alfa versions took over a year and thousands of dollars to get all facts right, It is a mascot of advanced engineering. How ever I never indented to sale it. Reason been is it failed to prove much differences in response to traditional bush bearing. The opposing energy slowing down shaft speed is surge pressure. Effect from rolling object is minimum. Plus the cost and time involved making it for us is impossible to market.

I believe the rear housing is too small or the comp wheel is too big, its showing its too hot. How ever the response and how it takes off is amazing, I would like to keep the current turbine setup and trim down the comp wheel size to make it work. I'm also in the process of building a slightly larger turbine housing to suit its current CHRA. That should work out pretty well too.

The SS1 also made 264rwkw and did not have a torque hole in the mid range.

I think the SS1 and SS2 are both fantastic turbos and cover the super responsive 250-260rwkw (SS1) and the 280-300rwkw with good response (SS2) markets.

I think you should focus on doing batches of these to bring the price down and get them out there.

Did the SS1 have the same response though?

I reckon the SS1 had better response in terms of torque and power but the boost response is 1-200rpm better of with this new turbo. The SS1 does not have the midrange hole in torque either.

Bear in mind my top end is lower then it should be due to a restriction I am currently diagnosing.

this! the ss-2 looks very promising

Ive got a 17psi actuator ready to go back on to the SS2, unless I can find a 15psi one somewhere. Once its all ready, I shall post up the results of the car with more boost.

This current actuator is SHIT HOUSE lol. If anyone is buying a turbo off Tao, GET THE 17 PSI ACTUATOR!!!!!!!! This lower PSI one can't even hold 10psi. The only time I get more than 10psi is if I get.... I don't know, it just happens when it wants to. It always finds a way to taper back down too, it just can't hold. None the less, even on 9psi, Ill be snaking on the road in 2nd off a perfect launch on cool nights.

The SS2 cost me I think $1340 or something. You might think its expensive but seriously, a Garrett alternative(3071 or 76) will cost you about $1700+ Then you need to buy a bunch of other shit to make it fit and get a new dump. Hypergear turbos, bolt on, tune, injectors, intake and away you go.

Ill list my costs on the performance aspects related to the turbo:

Turbo ATR43SS-2: $1340

Injectors Nismo 740cc: $650

Power FC(R33 Rb25DET s2): $1100

GTR Fuel pump: $80

Yellow jacket coils: $290 I think, bought off performance wise.

JJR bellmouth dump(I had one but it was cracked, repairs made more leaks) $190

Genuine Z32: $100

Clutch $380

Tune $800(plus other little jobs)

Intake pipe $30

Silicone stuff: $50 total

Venon 5" body 100cell Cat: $230

$4400.

Garrett counterpart will cost $5k+ with the parts I used above.

Car came with the basics, FMIC, exhaust, boost controller.

You wont regret a hypergear turbo.

er.. Actually your run was done on a 12 sec ramp making a fair comparison with that stock turbo's reading on the same ramp timing.

Mine is based on 9sec ramp. Compare to my original SS1 reading on the same ramp timing the prototype is about 500RPMs more advanced in response as well as torque,making it more responsive then a factory turbo. Come pass and test drive it when you free, totally unique driving experience.

Also it’s interesting that no one have ever ordered an ATR43G1. That is a 2530 equivalent turbo designed to max with stock injectors and AFM. Since its going to take about a week on bits and pieces for the prototype, I'll be building one for my self for a power run, should do 230rwkws with stockish response.

:O. I paid $1450 for a SS-1. I was told $1850 for a SS-2, that's why I went with the SS-1

SargeRX8 bought the demo SS-2 that was used on Tao's car. Tao will sell normally sell the demo turbos he uses for a cheaper price. He would have given you the brand new prices for a new turbo to be built.

Both Hypergear turbos I have used have been ex demo turbos.

Really keen to see some more SS-2 results on other cars.

Hey Sarge thanks a lot buddy for taking me for a spin in your ride, I appreciate that; your ss2 does make you feel the 'punch-in-the-seat' feeling that I'm after, but I expected it to be much more neck-jarring and brutal which is what I want.. :thumbsup:

Maybe that was because it is limited to 11psi with your current actuator as you said and also because we didn't go above 5000rpms?? Anyways I'm sure it will feel completely different with 18psi.. Thats gona be awesome mate..

Apologies Tao I missed the ramp time differences.

Having a closer look at this latest turbo, the torque curve could actually be very practical on the street. Instead of the usual hit of peak torque in mid rpm and then tapering off, this turbo makes a solid 400Nm of torque through the midrange and then steps it up again in the higher rpm. This would give a great feel of holding the rush, not to mention giving the tyres some hope of getting traction in the mid rpm (in lower gears)!

+1 for the ATR43G1, ~230rwkw without replacing injectors or AFM is prob the best bang for buck street setup on an RB25. I came from larger engines where response wasnt an issue and fell for the peak power game initially.

Its weird lol, I feel I can go faster if I get into the next gear by 5000 - 6000rpm. I red lined first the other day and you can really feel first gear is not enough to push this turbo once its above 6500rpm so I find it more effective to ram it into 2nd gear at 6krpm and keep the continuous "pull" feeling.

And to note, yes the turbo I bought was the test dummy. Never had issues with it. Shall be organising my tune up with DVS JEZ after my brakes are ready to roll and we shall see how we go on 17psi!

Have to take me for a before and after spin sarge.

Dont worry, Ron is a hard man to please. He like lots of revs. When tuning his car he keeps asking can we make the limiter Higher lol. What a champ.

I have another customer wanting a new turbo for his street gtst. I recommended a hypergear turbo, just got to work out which turbo.

Max 280 ish kw on high boost.

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
