I've got a gcg highflow on a series 1 rb25det (rebuilt with forged pistons etc) how much boost should I be trying to pump out of this turbo? I've heard they are good for 18psi on a 25, will it make more power if I go higher? or is this the limit with the internal wastegate? Just going to be using a cheap bleed valve.

Also with stock cams where will the power start to drop off, I've had a look at the dyno thread but it is a bit hard to tell, I get the feeling around 7k though?

Cheers.

Will it make more power? It's anyone's guess :(

just screw boost in until it stops making power/intake temps get too high etc.

Stock cams - never. I ran factory cams with a 600hp GT30, power held till redline (8000rpm) everytime

i have a GCG high flow on My series 2 R33, with all supporting mods injectors, PFC, Profec B Spec 2 boost controller etc etc and it runs 20psi and tapers off to 18psi higher in the rev range. Tuned by UNIGROUP engineering in Sydney, who did an amazing job, and the car drives with almost stock like response down low.

still stock CAMS as well. If that helps.

Nice I had a look in the dyno thread and looks like people are pulling about 250rkw with that kind of boost starting to taper off at 7k. What power does yours make and where does it start to drop off ?

I agree it is a lovely turbo to be able to make that sort of power but still drive around like a stock rb25 in the low revs, soon as you get any boost it is much quicker.

Is a hyper gear high flow anything at all like a gcg highflow though?

In most cases no :thumbsup:

They are the bush bearing version, so half the price. Wheels could be different too, without specs of each hard to say

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
