Hey guys finaly got the car tuned today at status tuning.

Mods are JJR stealth intercooler, nismo 555 injectors, z32, blitz ebc, power fc, nismo fuel pump, full 3.5inch exhust, hypergear tr43i turbo.

The car made 265kw on 17.5psi , I will upload the dynosheets when i get the computer with the scanner fixed, I am very happy with how the car feels. Thanks to trent at status tuning for hes great work and service and thanks to hypergear for a good turbo, also just for interest I am running hypergears old version of hes new atr43 g3 turbo so Im sure with hes new one you can expect even greater results.

good result. What did the turbo cost? im tossing up at the moment hypergear or CGC. Cant bloody decide. Hows the response as compared to a stock turbo?

The one that I bought cost me 1080 at the time with the oil line and ye it hits full boost at 3900 so not to bad ofcouse not as responsive as a stock one , but yeah they both do good jobs so it just comes down to your decision but I think hypergear is cheaper

baset- Thanks but im in the same boat as you cant drive cause dont have my lincese back atm lol so thats so annoying just having to look at it for another 5months.

Geraus-I think mine made more power then yours because mine wasnt a hi flow stao said it was a 500hp turbo with 0.63 rear. Im interested now to see what results hypergears new atr43 g3 can make.

Im still let to finish installing mine with the .63 housing. Seeing those results has gotten my hopes up as that is spot on my target. (mod list close to identical). I'm pretty sure mines the newer version though.

So you haven't got to drive it yet then? Shame. I'd love to hear feedback on how it comes onto boost (odviously slightly laggier then standard), and if the turbo spool sounds different compared to the stocko.

Yeah keep us posted on how your one goes when its done, where you gettings it tuned? well I havnt driven it but I got someone else to drive it and once comes onto boost pulls hard torque was 470nm or something it kicks you back and yeah as I said you hit full boost at 3900 , i cant remeber when the stock one hits full boost but yeah you can use that as a comparission. Tuner said could of got prob another 20kw with adding abit more timing into it but didnt do it due to variance in petrol when you refill cause if you got a bad tank cause detonation.

Sounds really good. I'll be getting it tuned at Race pace. Just waiting on some gaskets that are on order for mine.

Who really cares about such a small percentage of power for the sake of long term reliability. Good decision.

Glad to hear some good results with the turbo as they seem like a really sensible option for price and they look really good uninstalled :P

Luke

Yeah , theres not much that will perform and beat hypergear in its price range, its becoming a good alternative for those who cant get the money for garett or hks etc turbos

dude thats crazy 263kws ??? on hypergear?!?! i got 233kws on a hypergear highflow! wtf :D

but is your response the same? near the 4000rpm mark? i got a stock turbo running 12psi full boost below 3 (but only 190rwkw). Id like to keep it as punchy as possible down low... GCG any better as far as response you think?

Of course response is not going to be as good as a stock turbo. But its also ballpark 80rwkw more then a stock turbo

Considering the price tag required to get 265rwkw compared to other brand new turbos to hit similar power. Yes response isn't going to be quite as good. But 4000rpm certainly isn't over the top laggy. And there's a massive difference between $1300ish and $4000ish give or take.

I guess the only other thing that will interest me is how long they last given correct treatment (boost, cool down etc).

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
