Just finished a re-tune with my RB25/30 with the new GT3076R.

With the new actuator, it's peaked at 336 rwkw and 1120 Nm.

So far I have a heavy duty clutch kit, series 2 gearbox and a standard viscous diff.

Everything except the diff is doing its job well. Single spinning a fair bit now.

Just curious, if I switch to semi-slicks , should I expect anything to break ?

Wear and tear is one thing, but with this torque I don't know.

Cheers.

He's taken the 1120nm off his dyno sheet, which is just a tractive measure of torque at the wheels rather than the engine. A very different figure from actual engine torque which as ER said should be about 500nm. What goes first will depend on how you drive, e.g. hard launches will likely kill your diff first, then your gearbox. Too much clutch slip will kill your clutch first.

Agreed with above. My power of deduction (read: calculations) tell me you have about 520Nm of torque.

+1 to the clutch not lasting very long at all.

If you put semi's on, warm them up properly and launch it hard.. IF the clutch survives, I'd expect to snap an axle next (maybe not with a tired viscous centre).

WOW that power curve drops off really early.

I would suggest a bigger rear housing and 3.5inch exhaust.

As for driveline, gearbox will be OK for a while. Diff will wear. Im making 700ft/lbs and have just put in my second gearbox.

Be prepared for breakages if driven hard.

Oh BTw, Conan, How do u find the 3076R setup on the RB25/30 combo? response? eg. everyday, and driving, whats ur first impressions

Combo is perfect for me. You can drive conservatively and the car is quiet. Engine and exhaust noise is very low until you hammer it, then it just whistles and growls.

The response is just where I want it with that power. Boost comes on hard and she's quite an animal to drive. With street tyres and stock diff it's a little unpredictable with traction loss. Some times the diff holds and she'll stay straight, other times I'm facing the footpath.

I've got a Nismo Pro 1.5 on hold, just waiting for some more money.

This turbo is definitely the right choice for 330kw mark. NYTSKY and Disco are right in suggesting the larger A/R rear.

I reckon the 1.06 and 650cc injectors would see the most out of the 3076R on the RB25/30 but every day fuel consumption might be compromised a little.

I still get 110 km per 10 litres with 336kw. How cool is that ?

Wouldn't trade it for anything else. :P

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
