Hoping mine doesn't get same issues with the .63 rear, however should be easier to hold 20psi externally gated yeah?

My cooler is 510x250x70 , tube and fin, which is worrying me a bit, however can't go any wider due to auto spoiler motors for the flip down lip on the 31. Could go to a 510x300x100 probably max.

^The only thing I'd be worried about is heat soak, not boost control.

what power are rou aiming for? 510x300x100 is a fair sized cooler. See how your current cooler goes first though as its far from tiny tiny. Depends what your goals are and uses for the car. Sorry if you mentioned this on the previous page.

Aiming for 290-300rwkw on 98 with the ATR43SS2 op6 version, which tao has explained has a larger rear wheel to suit the .63 rear housing. Yeah i don't think it will be an issue and its piped very direct, not a return flow or anything, just all these stories in this thread are making me worried about it haha. i hope it doesnt drop alot of pressure across core.

hey stao, looking for a turbo eqivilient to a t28bb/ but no bigger than a gt2860rs for a sr20. would i be right thinking it would be a ss1pu .64 and looking back through results do you have any for a fairly standard non cammed non vct s13 with standard mods 3" intake exhaust z32 550cc etc?

The ATR28SS15 would be a perfect turbo for your application. I didn't look into some thing even smaller as it doesn't make that much of a difference in response but did loses quite a lot of power.

I've handed drawings of two more sets wheels to be engineered for the GTR. for main time, I've picked up a members R34. Its got 170,000KMs on the clock, average condition, with heaps of ice and minor engine mods done by a 20 year enthusiastic. probably due to the mileage, this engine feels pretty rough compare to my other two skylines. This might be affecting performance on the dyno.

Condition of this car probably represents the majority of R34s on roads today. I will be installing commonly seen mods including a Blitz return flows cooler kit. the goal would be around the 330rwkws mark on Pump fuel, internally gated bolton. Will upload dates as project moves along.

Some results sent in. This is a ATR45 SAT version on an Rb25det Neo motored Stagea, Dyno dynamic roller dyno shoot out mod. Final result of 400awkws (red) on a 36 degrees day, against a turbocharger that was previously installed.

Unopoened engine, factory cams and cam gears. Usual mods and E85 fuel.

Good example of an externally gated setup out of factory exhaust manifold.

I think you will need to preload the actuator alot more then where it currently is. Was this SS2 built with a black .70 comp housing or a smaller .60 comp housing?

make no differences. the one with .60 housing is easier to install, black housings with 4 inche inlets are .70. Preload your actuator by a further 5mms, go for a drive and keep an eye on the boost gauge to see if that have made any changes.

Quick question, I've still got the ATR43SS2 in the car and it's been going great. I've noticed that it sounds louder on boost after a recent track day, is this any cause for concern? It still boosts up to 20psi like before.

    • The average previous owner for these cars were basically S-chassis owners in the US. Teenagers or teenager-adjacent. I often tell people that neglect is easier to fix than something that was actively "repaired" by previous owners.
    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny
