And by the way, I've made some custom exhaust wheels that is for the GTR OEM high flows. They are engineered to support 300 ~ 350awkws region on pump fuel and response will have similar to stock twins. My car's waiting for bits and pieces, so if any one is interested to evaluate please let me know, I will put a special offer for $1200 on both turbochargers.

fk me i wish i didnt have brand new -7's...

Hows the R34 development hack going Stao?, You havn't dynoed a SS based version of the ATR 45 SAT on a rb25 for that yet have you, only the normal ATR45 SAT version?

cheers

Stao, which version did I end up with? The SS based or normal ATR45 SAT?

The SS based SAT made too much torque which my current clutch couldn't hold it. But let me know if you wish to try, expecting to see around 450rwkws mark.

took about two weeks to get my order of a PWR intercooler delivered. It came with a pretty good looking box (they asked $11 additional for that box), polished tanks and pretty neat welding:

Compare to the Takashi, end tanks looks quite similar, except PWR is hand welded and Takashi is one piece die-cast.

However the core interior is quite different. The PWR's cooling fins are neatly 45 degrees angled and dead straight, while the Takashi is all over the places:

So hope to see a difference on the dyno on Monday, and will update results when ready.

Nice video footage. :)

This is a set of rather unusual high flow jobs. Pair of high flowed 2860-5s into ATR28SS15. Its going to a Rb30det engine with Rb26 head. Hopefully they will solve the back pressure issues currently experiencing with GTRS turbine wheel. One more thing that I'm alittle concern is the back pressure in the exhaust system as the ATR28SS15 is ideally made to run on a single 3 inches turbo back system, that GTR is pretty good of having 4 inches turbo back exhaust, still have to be shared with two turbo how ever. I've made some oversized thrust collars for that purpose, hopefully be seeing close to 500rwkws with those once fully running.

Can't wait to see results of this, a guy over on AUS300ZX made 492rwkw on his GT2860-5's so i want to see how much your version can make.

This is the lastest results for our evaluations on intercoolers using 173,000KM fully standard Rb25det Neo motor and our ATR43SS2 Rb bolton turbocharger. The result is intriguing, and I have personally never ever thought it would turnout this way.

The test car (r34GTT) has:
1000cc Bosch injectors
Walbro 470L/H Fuel pump
Hypergear ATR43SS-2 internally gated bolton turbocharger
Adaptronic Plugin ECU
Just Jap's Front mount cooler piping kit
Just Jap's Turbo back 3 inches exhaust
100 cell cat (don't know the brand)
Tuned by Chequered Tuning
Pump 98 fuel

Pressure monitored from both inlet and outlet of the intercooler

Nothing has been changed on the car apart from the intercooler it self. The result indicates the effects of cooler change, this may or may not apply to other cars apart from mine, it obviously does not mean you should be spending more money on your cars, I'm not promoting or in favor of any manufactures.

Result are based on very similar boost levels:

Takashi 600x300x68mm cooler:
267rwkws @ 19psi after cooler or 23psi before cooler

Takashi 600x300x100mm cooler:
278rwkws @ 20psi after cooler or 24psi before cooler

PWR 600x300x81mm cooler:
303rwkws @ 20psi aftercooler or 22.4psi before cooler
295rwkws @ 19psi aftercooler (blue is from Takashi 600x300x100mm cooler)

what Intake Air Temps are you registering?

I wonder if it's more so the intake temp that's promoting more power rather than flow, etc.

That's what it was thinking and asked on fb about temp changes pwr cold to touch. Edited by Badgaz

Other thing it might be worth mentioning is the PWR's core has no inner fins. They are just straight triangular tubes. Which naturally less resistance. That shown up on the power and torque curve after 5000RPM, engine is definitely getting more air there.

Fascinating stuff, Stao. Love the detail you're going to, it is a puzzle. Would be nice to see intake temps logged as well, although the PWR straight fins / less resistance if anything I would expect to see higher intake temps. Possibly on the NEO, flow matters more than temp. Maybe this is to do with the camshaft and how efficiently the cylinders fill/scavenge. The Neo certainly seems like it loves to breathe, I noticed a "seat of the pants" improvement even from having a straight through muffler but I couldn't tolerate the noise so had a triflow put in.. but I'm guessing the JJR exhaust is some straight-through canon type thing (ugh).

PWR uses a design borrowed from the VR4 and EVO's over a decade ago. The little nodules on the inside of the core actually create a larger surface area over traditional intercoolers which cools better whilst increasing flow capacity. The Delta fin(Apexi Style) of the Takashi reduces flow over a comparable 68mm core which also lets it down.

Best cooler to date I have tested is the ARC R Twin entry, flared bell mouth style inlets, flow through knife edged tubes(outside air for radiator). If only you could use the EVO/PWR style core with the ARC core (inlet air) bell mouths you would have it all so to speak. Pity they are almost impossible to find these days.

Do you reckon replacing a Takashi 68mm core with like a JustJap 78mm will cause any differences and be worth it ?

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
