Have a feel of shaft play, there should be about 1mm side to side and nothing in / out. If that is the case check for lose bits thats bolted to the turbo.

Noticed you are in Melbourne, Call and drop by for a quick inspection when you are free.

Thanks Stao PM coming your way.

Just finished installing my 21U high flow and had it tuned by Trent:

Much happier with the performance of this turbo compared with the OP6 variant I had last time.

As you can see, full boost is achieved by under 3,500rpm and I got 100rwkw at just over 3,000rpm.

My car's clutch began slipping towards the end of the tune, so Trent backed the power off; it could have made 260-270rwkw with more boost.

It's currently making 248rwkw at ~16psi. It feels better than my OP6 did at 20psi and 270rwkw, probably due to the wider spread of power/torque.

Big ups to Stao for this turbo and for putting up with my constant calls,visits and questions! :thumbsup:

Thanks for the feed backs, always happy to help and the power curve looks great.

For 200rwkws by 4000RPM, the SS1PU would do it pretty well, or the 21U high flow can also do that assume you run enough boost at it.

Installed, housing mod by scotty, rest of welding im finishing up now myself. screamer is done, just gotta lengthen cooler piping to joiner and weld on a nipple for wastegate reference and we're good to go. can't wait to see how the SS2 goes.

They stops making power around 23psi. I was getting 327rwkws internally gated, but 367rwkws externally gated.

I completed a turbo install plus few other bits on the R34 today. They do give you a lot more useless stuff then they've done on R33s. Few things to point out:

I usually preload my actuators to 4mms. if for what ever reasons it has been removed and re-installed, please make sure it is loaded to where it was. More preloads can be added In case of boost tapering at high RPM on big boost.

The oil feeding line sits in between the turbo and chassis, do not fold them in between the turbo and manifold. The braided oil line is standard with and high flow services and is usually supplied with an ATR43 series turbochargers. Make sure you do get one if a 2nd hand turbo of ours is purchased.

Split fire coil packs are must in most of cases for high boost:

Most of people uses a JJR bell mouth front pipe, so I've bought one my self.

and its not quite right, but for the price I won't complain.

and gasket on our turbine housing is perfect:

Give it a little die-grinding and its ok.

The turbo in there is a SAT version of the ATR43G3 with a factory housing machined to suit. This is also the first internal gated version of that model, turbo comes in smooth and responsively. Still need to get a metal intake pipe made, the car will be running an Adaptronic plugin, hopefully hitting 300rwkws on pump fuel.

Can you keep the AFM, as most people do. So if you are doing more like for like testing it would make sense.

Some feedback for you stao.

> Stock untouched RB30E bottom end

> Stock untouched RB25DET Neo head

> VCT

> Hypergear ATR43SS2 (mid 2013 model)

> 6boost exhaust manifold

> Turbosmart 45mm hypergate (7psi spring) venting to atmo

> 3" straight through exhaust

> E85

> Adaptronic R34 GT-T select plug in

> X-Spurt 1000cc injectors

> R32 GTR intercooler

First impressions are that its so much fun everywhere in the rev range. Comes on to boost very fast in the upper RPM as you would expect, lower RPM is still pretty quick but has room to improve.

The cam timing is slightly out and I didn't have time to get a degree wheel and set them perfectly to zero, the gate is only running a 7psi spring at the moment which makes it a little lazy also.

Once I get back on the dyno and fiddle with both intake and exhaust cams (both are now adjustable from the front thanks to Ben C34) and chuck a 14psi spring in the gate it should be quite a monster. Can't upload the boost graph for some reason. 10psi low boost and 13psi high at the moment. I assume this is not even reaching the turbos efficiency range yet? I haven't seen anyone run such low boost using one of your turbos haha.

It's quick enough for me already but I really want to go back fix the cam timing, bigger gate spring and chuck 20+ psi at it and see what it makes hahaha.

nice, what do you think is causing your waveness on your graph lines? if thats only 13psi then thats pretty awesome! what power is normally achievable with GTR intercooler?

Looking promising so far will really come on when you wind a few more psi in.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
