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.

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

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 :(

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

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.

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

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
