My Bad Boys are here (GTRS Turbo's)

[OZ GTR35]

My GTRS turbo's arrived today. I took some snaps to show all. I am really happy with the GTRS kit, everything included.

(Sorry but I could not post up the jpg's)

Anyway, they go onto the car Next monday and hopefully the car gets tuned before the drift day.

Good stuff, very interested in seeing these turbos go on to an RB26. A whole lot of theory about these turbos, not much real life facts to back it up. Hope they exceed your expectations!

Hi Oz GTR97V, what else is done to your RB26?

[OZ GTR35]

I will probably stop at 1.2bar as I dont drag, just track days

They give you every gasket in the kit except the dump pipe one

I'm sorry but you musn't be looking in the right places if you beleive there isn't much info on GT-RS turbines on the RB26?!?!?! *baffle*

In fact, i think there is ONLY info available from manufacturers about the RB26 and the SR20.

Freely available on the manufacturers site

They come when you buy the HKS dump pipes

Yeh there is info from manufacturers, but next to no feedback from owners in Aus of GTRs with these turbos fitted...i think that more what he meant.

Cant wait to see how your car goes with these turbos, perhaps with all this grunt its time you spend some coin on new shocks?

Does the kit come with its own wastegate actuators? and do these turbos bolt up to the standard HKS dump pipes or do they have there own dump pipes because the wastegate outlet looks different to all the other GT25 series turbos the wastegate does not look completely seperate from the turbine wheel

[OZ GTR35]

Looks like I will need to find a dump pipe gasket ASAP!

GTR13, I cant comment as Im not 100% clear. I guess I will find out Monday when they come off the car.

Yep, they come with their own internal wastegate actuators - as pictured set at 0.9 bar. The wastegate outlet looks different because there is a 'splitter' to stop turbulance from the main exhaust outlet. They will still bolt up to the standard T25 5 bolt dump pipe.

You can get the gaskets from Nissan. They are only about $38 each. Proper Metal ones too. Let us know how the TARBINE's performe!

[OZ GTR35]

I had a good look through the kit last night and I think the GTR pack does come with the exhaust gasket, either way I will chase round today just in case.

Very nice - make sure you post up a post fitment report:)

[OZ GTR35]

Well the turbo's are on and feel nice. Lots more low down torque and agressive top end. With a new set of plugs it is a new car!

I have only been to 1bar but felt very strong, I am very happy. Dyno tomorrow and check the Fuel:Air and see what power I get once the PFC is tunned. I am looking for more of a fat curve that a peak power curve. Usable power is the key for me.

The only negatives, the turbo's are a little louder that the standards and really scream once they are spooled up. Also the waste gate has a vent at about .8 Bar so I cant drop the boost when the wife drives. Oh well, as small price to pay. So far 5 star rate on the turbo's

[Steve]

Good to hear you got a nice result, make sure you post up a dyno, and please try turning up the boost to around 1.5bar for a dyno run:). If they are typical HKS turbos, they start to go crazy above 1.2 bar - fun stuff.

i must say i am very moist

give us a bell when you get a chance paul
