Ok so i spoke to a mate of mine who is a mechanic he said that a scremer pipe will increase boost response time because the turbo keeps spooling/spinning somthing about there being no back pressure. can someone confirm/deny this because this would be a performance increase.

i would like to get into drift raceing i just dont have the money but little things like this i can get made up and use them when i start drift raceing and remove them when i wanna drive on the road.

the effects will be minimal over a decent exhaust with it all plumbed in.

well i have a full 3inch into 4inch cannon from the turbo back would you consider that a decent exhaust?

planing on doing it with the stock turbo? if so you will still only get 200kw and 3" will be fine for that and it should still be fine at 300kw.

i have a high flowed t3/t4 turbo already but im planning on geting a g35? turbo i thinks its called i will be makeing 4-500kw or more for now i think thats what my mate is makeing im pretty much just copying what he has got

no gt35 is going to give you 4-500kw. it is not a turbo capable of that and your engine wont like it either.

yeah im not sure about the name of the turbo im pretty sure my mate said it was a g35 turbo he is using? allthou i cant find any info on it so i probley have got the name of it wrong

Edit: also i ment hp not kw

i think this is the one he has http://www.cimotorsports.net/motor-sport-p...rbocharger.html or something similar. so what the reason my motor wont like it?

The stock engine internals are only so strong, you are asking them to deal with 200kw or more than the factory 187. it may last for years it may last a week.

i thought you were gonna say it wasnt big enough :cool: thanks for the heads up but im aware of the internals factor im not to worried about it thou as im planning to build a stronger motor anyway

i just realised this would be a good place to ask a question so here goes basicly i wanna make 600hp - 1000hp in my skyline with a really good response. the responsiveness is more important to me then the power but i would still like to have a alot of power what turbo and engine mods would you guys suggest? i have been looking at turbos from here http://www.turbobygarrett.com/turbobygarre...ers.html#medium but i cant make my mind up any hlp would be apprecitated

at no point should you combine i want 600-1000hp and response is important. its not going to happen. 600hp is getting to the upper limits of a 1.0 rear T04Z and thats not going to be on full boost till 4500-5000 or later.

ok well i dont know much about what im doing wwith upgrades. i just want huge amount of power and a decent spool time i figured big lag and nos shots were required for 7-800hp or more.

whats the to4z hp rated to? as thats sounds good to me and am i better of going for a cutoms turbo like gt35/gt42 or gt45 over a t04z

The circuit car that im driving is a 32 v-spec gtr v-spec, fully built engine and drivetrain with a custom t04z external wastgate/screamer pipe.

Puts out 420awkw at 1.5 bar, makes the best sound in the world. I really think you need massive power to make an screamer pipe a worthwhile/credible thing.

I havent fully read your thread, but i cant help but thinking your modifying the wrong car. The to4 on the rb26 has a significant amout of lag, starts pulling from 4300 and then rockets from 5 to 9,000rpm in the blink of an eye!

Wouldnt have much of a rev range without massive cams and strong internals.

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
