+1 for the above - He really will.

Is that new thing suitable for, I dunno, some guy wanting to run a low mount smallish turbo at 28psi on a RB28 auto sedan? ;)

LOL you sir would likely be happier with a straight SS2.

However, the new highflow profile amazes me, and a PU version of that (.82 T3 rear housing) might just rock socks on your motor!

Got some feedbacks from the ATR43SS4 built as a Ford XR6 BA internally gated bolton turbocharger. Its doing 408rwkws on 18psi P98. I think the turbine end is maxing out, it really needs a large external gate for more power.

LOL knowing the Ford Barra thats probably revving to 6,000... Meaning its on full boost preeeeeetty close to 3,000.

Thought I might just let everyone know.. LOL

Just a heads up to anyone who wants to go bigger then SS2 and go low mount, think again :P

my SS2 JUST fits, But it does fit, Engine is in the car now, cant wait to see how it goes

It's not far off from what I can tell. We did some trial fitting and working out exhaust/wastegate configuration on the old engine.

Its probably slightly different but not a whole lot off. But I'd say the stock side mount manifold wouldnt be quite as tight

I cant remember what Stao's Brae manifold is off the top of my head?

Nice. Does that manifold mount turbo in exactly stock location?

It's pretty much the same deal with the stock manifold, my SS2 fits but only just (on an R34). The actuator to chassis clearance is 1 or 2 mm so it's tight. Also due to the overall length of the turbo the intake and OEM intercooler piping will need some customisation. For a direct bolt-on a highflow is the easier option.

Wow! Looks pretty cool, but pretty intense - I always kindof liked the idea of a low mount setup but after seeing a couple I'd say it'd be a pain if you had to change turbos haha. Out of interest, depending on what brand you go you can get a MASSIVE amount of power out of that size frame - even the 900hp FP3794HTA turbo uses the same housings as you have there, so I am sure inside and outside of the HG range there is plenty to move up to if you end up needing more power than the SS2 can give you.

Be good to see results :)

Im trying to keep it as legal and non sus as possible while still chasing decent power.

I know the 6boost hardly looks stock but at least theres not a turbo hanging up top lol. Power steering line is fouling on the joiner off the comp housing. Can kinda see it in the first photo. Thats about the only issue

Stao..how about you make one with a Gt37 style turbine. like i said in my messages

a while back ...the rb30 boys would be able to use that aswell...Ill even test it on a mid 10 sec car..lol

cheers

darren

Haha, i missed the end.

ATR43G2.5

Keen to see how it goes I have g2.5 and currently underwhelmed with my result and unsure if it's turbo or something else that is lacking.

What was your result and why are you underwhelmed?

250rwkw. Hits hard about 3500/4000 which is good but after that the power just flattens out has no extra go at all pretty much gets the 250kw at 4500 and doesn't climb from there

    • Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.
    • Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).  
    • There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.
    • The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
    • Gee she looks a bit rear heavy in that first pic! Sounds like a great project with the kids, but as I guess you know R series stuff is getting hard to find and pre that is pretty much impossible these days
