hey all

Just brought my first Gtr, r32

power Fc

Nismo upgraded turbines (T25/T04B 0.64) with metal turbine blades

HKS Turbo dump pipes & front engine pipe

Tomei sump baffle

Tomei type A cams

Jun cam gears

N1 oil pump

Whats safe boost for a Rb26dett what these mods. My boost controller is a Blitz SBC - i-D SPEC - R. If im driving long in say 2nd gear. And roll on boost to 7.3-5k rpm. My boost controler says peak boost 19.5psi. when i got it set on High boost setting. on the other setting it dosent boost past 16psi.

I just dont no how much i can lean on it. I have all the recipes for the tuning it was tuned 3months ago for 19psi. But dont no i dont want any probs any time soon. just making sure you no.

Have many people boosted there rb26s unforged that high? if its high at all. whats high boost for a non forged rb26?

sorry if this sounds like a noob question. Im new the the GTR/rb26 seen.

cheers for any help

I am no expert but 19 - 20 psi on a stock engine should be fine as long as your tune is good, i.e. not leaning out. From experience the 32's don't like being held over 7500rpm for too long, hece the semi redline at this figure.

I would of thought a stocky should be good for around 25 psi with a safe tune and a good driver?

Just remember the stock AFM's resolution max out at around 400-410 RWHP- Tuning res after this isn't necessarily brilliant. Tuning is the key to keeping it safe, but you'll also hit a point where the extra boost adds heat but not power.

Good point, I had not passed posting that as a 'given'. But his set up doesn't appear to have them.

Oh and budget for a rebuild at some point or another regardless, LOL.

sorry to hi jack thread but just a quick one.

I have stock turbos on my 32 gtr looking at bumping them up a bit i have herd that they are dodgy above 1 bar is this correct?

If they were new(er) I'd say 1 bar no worries, but since they are older there is a risk in doing that.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
