I cant get VCT working unless I buy a VCT intake cam and a new VCT solenoid and gear. I have previously had too much hassle with getting VCT to work in my SR so I threw it away and put non VCT cams in my car.

I am very happy with the delivery as it is anyway. Going to keep it as is and just want to go finish my tune.

Man there are a lot of people out there with your highflows who use their cars for PROPER motor sport duties. That is crazy :)

Cheap reliable turbo that can be rebuilt cheaply in AUS. Also cause he's always working on improving his products can't go wrong

Newly designed exhaust wheel finally out of the furnaces today. This particular one was from the 407rwkws SS3 prototype with a Dia of 66mm. Will be making the turbine shaft and friction weld them in the next few days. This wheel is also made to improve the exhaust side flow ability with current bolton ATR43 series turbochargers, without adding additional lag.

Looks good Stao :)

Took a few quick photos of my turbo today, first time I've had time to even look at it since it got back here.

Might get some better photos tomorrow but in the mean time heres some photos off my phone:

Happy with the way it looks, Can't wait t osee it on the car. I have no excuses now that the turbo is back to not get started on this engine

Thanks again Stao for making this happen :)

SS2

:ph34r:

Yeah was an SS2CB, one of Stao's original ones produced not long after the prototype (If memory serves me correctly?)

It's been too long since I actually got the turbo. Need to put motor in car and stop making excuses

Those are the current SS turbochargers, I'm particularly interested in the result of the SS1PU as the latest compressor has made a difference in stabilizing upper rev boost level as well as the turbo's response.

My test rig will be down graded using standard exhaust manifold and internal gate, based on the completion of the SS4 Alpha development. From there I will obtain further data based on the performance of our latest SS turbochargers internally gated, In which should archive a much better out come then what I've originally archived few years ago.

Lastly, internally gated SS Alpha turbochargers are under construction, means a new range of big power, responsive and easy fitment turbo options will soon be available for Rb25det engines.

Stao do you think there would be much benefit for me to change to your new profile? As noted I will be heading back to the dyno soon so I should make the most of it.

After some trailing and testing with using the G4 chra the housing type and profile bell shapes are pretty much set to optimum for a Rb25det engine. So far this is the most responsive 3582 equivalent turbocharger I've trailed. Obviously it will be a controlled run finding out what my cam behaviors are and gathering data for the SS4 alpha series to run against.

Trent and Cat just had their fun in China and now back to work. My dyno run is booked in for tomorrow, and hopefully things will run smoothly.

Here's controlled run from today. The maximum power reached was 445rwkws with 25psi @ 4500RPMs.

Boost level comparison result from previous run using the same turbocharger.

No, its not responsive for a daily, how ever not bad considering the peek power it managed. This is our base run using standard cast compressor wheel, my billet wheel versions will be act against the result above, and the desired out come would be for better power and response. 460rwkws with 25psi by 4300RPM would be a nice goal to reach

That graph looks mental straight up after 4000rpm

will be awesome to drive if it got traction

Goes from 100rwkw at 4000rpm to 325rwkw in a few hundred rpm

If these turbos could handle big boost 30psi+ you could be onto a winner for those after big power

decent response simalar to the precision turbo range

Should be well over 500rwkw at over 30psi if it can handle it but you would need the supporting mods to test it more fuel

Ho-lee-f*k! That's mental. I'd love to drive it on the street :) Licence would be gone in a second but the tyre smoke just beforehand would be epic.

That's pump fuel and low mount?

That power level would be very fast at the drags

You should try winding the boost up and test it out at the strip

Is that turbo still internal gate and single scroll?

Just re read it still cast comp wheel and no vnt yet

With a billet comp should be even better but I'm not sure about the vnt might choke it up top restricting power

But it's definately heading in the right direction

This is running VNT, hence the difference in response. Thats on the high mount, external gate and e85. for some reason the boost curve appears laggier on paper then on road. I can see my boost gauge sitting at 15psi at 4000RPM 4th gear on the high way. Since its just a controlled test so never mind as long as the billet series works better.

If I can get rid of 300rpms of lag it would be sweet as for a daily.

Definitely very fast, I need to a 4WD system to put all of those on the road.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
