My turbo turned up while I was away at work, didn't even know it was on the way :P

Thanks Stao for all the help you've given me through this process, turbo looks good and can't wait to see how it goes. Now just have to finish my engine

I only have the standard highflow which is good for 430hp.

270x1.34= 361rwhp

361*1.2=434 engine hp allowing 20% drive train loss (which is a widely accepted rough estimate)

Yours sounds about right,

Is that v-band???

V-band rear? yes

3.5" V-band

I will take some more photos in a minute, that was just a quick camera phone photo last night when I got home from work

Very nice looking turbo, Not sure if I want to paint the housing or not lol

No im just wondering,

anyways i got it retuned this morning again and because of timing and it was sort of pinging my tuner had to back the power off, now its on 255kw on 18 psi, i'll post the final tune tonite when i got a chance, im happy with the turbo either way.

V-band rear? yes

Very nice. I need one of these V-Band rears :woot:

That was my ceramic roller bearing highflow with a .60 comp housing :yes: and new externlly gated through turbine housing.

its pretty interesting seeing the 6boost's manifold has very long runners. any one can share some theory in doing that?

Equal length runners and merge collected so exhaust gas gets to the Turbo in equal/even bursts isn't it?

Pretty keen for this engine, really hope I can get the ext gate to work but think life won't be so bad if I have to go int gate I don't think

Need to trim the Turbo studs as one of them is fouling but other then that I'm very happy with how its looking :)

V-band rear? yes

3.5" V-band

Prob just me or the photo but v band doesn't look 3.5".

Plus I thought Stao told me once he could only do 3" max.

Hi Stao,

Long time no speak! As you already know, I'm currently running a top-mount Garrett GTX3076R but looking to return the car to stock-ish to sell and was wondering what the boost response is for the hi-flowed R33 standard turbo and the hi-flowed R34 turbo like compared to the stock R33 turbo.

    • I havent bought a manual cover for the dash yet and no cluster change, won't bother me too much, I just need to get that auto box gone, manual in! I miss my manual. 🤪. We started last weekend and managed to get the box out. Planning to start putting it in this weekend and then order a single piece tail. We were super careful to take time and not damage anything. It's my first time working under the car.  With my S15 mainly worked in the bay. This time, it was a headache because of three or four bolts only. They simply didnt want to leave thei homr and the one securing the tailshaft, another above the GB, and the one securing the lipstick was a shit. Mates mate, Davo caught fire 🤣, nearly opened his chest up with a grinder 🤦🏽‍♂️ and both mates nearly had a plate from the box land and slit their head open. Fun times. We all survived. Not the easiest working with limited access on jackstands. As I'm sure we can agree these are the memories which make us love our car. For all three of us, was an awesome weekend and Sunday 3.30am before tools down was a fantastic effort. I need to upload pics, but looks like it needs to be via Url now. We used to be able to just upload pics back in the day. It's been that long! 🤪 Im currently spraying rustoleum under body, not because it's rusted. It's super clean, but just so it's protected for the next 10 years. There was a few surface rust spots. Which pretty much wiped off with a 3M scourer.  Really impressed with how well the previous owner maintained it. Bank account went down so quick! Service, then GB - managed to get a spanking new 34 genuine box from Nissan. All the rest of the conversion parts from Kudos.  Went with a Nismo short shifter. New pedals and Exedy Clutch and FW. Ordered the Prp Rear Main Retainer kit which should arrive Friday and my first engine mod part just like I did with my S15 will be the Tomei Expreme Turbo Outlet. Already on order. It'll likely sleep next to me on a pillow during the coming months. 🥰 Last build was on my JET200GT profile and on SAU and Hardtuned I had documented the build. Planning to try to do that again. Brands feel scarce now. Wish we still had ARC and Apexi parts readily available. Exhaust - need some advice on this. I had an Apexi exhaust on the S15 and loved the tone. My mate had a HKS HP Silent on his 33 and suggested I go with that to avoid drone. I can't remember hearing an RB25DET running that so will likely need to wait for a meet or something to hear it.  Not after big power, just enjoy building it, and drivability with minimal negative attention.
    • Have a chat with Ben at Moore Performance or Jesse at JS Performance.
    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
    • I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
