size of your turbo?...if its around the same size as a GT-SS of course it will be.

your set-up 2.0 litres capacity x 1 turbo but due to the inferior head design/flow of the RB20 this evens it up a bit.

his set-up 2.6 litres capacity 2 x turbo's his is the equivalent of a 1.3 litre engine vs your 2 litres...even if you turbo is the same as a 2530 you would still have more airflow through the turbine at any given rpm.

Trust TD06 20G L2......feel free to get the calculator out :D

EDIT: I'm getting 1.25bar at around 4,200

This comment made my night

Jack, here you go, some old turbo sheets attached. 35R is hard to rate HP wise with so many options available for it, for example ive got one with a 66mm front fan (for supra).

I agree with your points 100%, but since talking to the racepace guys and seeing their results I dont really pay much attention to ratings anymore ;)

Nice work Steve, I remember seeing this chart a while back, puts things into perpective and good reference for comparisons..

Simple fact is twin GTss on an RB26 with Mild Cams dialed right is as good as it gets for boost response in a 450rwhp package.

Agreed, proven many times over, results speak for themselves... :huh:

I will leave you to your ego's....I mean your tuners ego's that you live through vicariously. ;)

Agree totally, especially when the person behind the keyboard IS the tuner.

Having 4 GTR's in your workshop does wonders to one's ego it seems. ;)

Time to put it to rest anyway, if Trent doesn't want to share his knowledge and experiences well then he shouldn't say anything at all.

A few have recommended a turbo, would be interesting how they would go up against the twin GTSS's.

:huh:

How many time have you seen a smallish single installed on a rb26?!?

I think a Garrett/HKS 3071R, 3076R, Apexi RX6 and Trust Td06/T67 25g would all give them a run for their money... and that's just to name a few!!! The problem is no-one seems to run these setups, although apparently their will be one back on the road in Perth soon

Man, a PE RX6R on a GTR - that'd be bling!!!

wrxkilla on these forums had a single RX6 with P21 housing on his R32 GTR, it has been done. Biggest rear end is a P27 I think? Single scroll though.

The 30 series do match the GTss for response but loose out above 7000rpm. 35s are the tool for the 500 to 600ish rwhp bracket and what I use on customer Race RBs. Very simple, reliable and effective.

Im fitting a pair of The Turbos I developed for IPRA 2.0L Turbo cars to the RB34 im building for the 180SX Race car we look after because of their response and power output.

The PE RX6R is a bit of a different beast to the typical IHI/Apexi RX6s... its almost like comparing a GT30R with a TR30R.

Angus Smart - that'd be awesome to see. One of my friends have an R32 GTR with a GT4094R on his built RB26 but he needs to sort the fuel system out... its still on the stock one while he sorts other things out and the thing hits 300wkw by 6000rpm on wastegate boost, and the thing is pretty laggy with that small a rev range haha.

There are two of the turbos i was talking about earlier there. I have PM'd (few days back) Toy15 with the turbos we have used and explained why i have not listed them here.

I haven't seen many at all, they are not popular for a reason.

In my opinion I believe it comes down to two factors.

First is the percentage of GTR's which are street cars that don't want the hassle of a high mount with current laws, EPA etc...

Second is cost, it will be cheaper to bolt on some low mounts than go through the excercise of buying turbo, manifold, wastegate, plumbing, oil lines etc.

This is my opinion and by no means is the definitive answer.

Would be interesting to see how those turbos you have mentioned would go, has anybody seen any dyno graphs or experienced such setups that would better the GTSS's in response??

which workshop do you own/ what set ups have you tuned?

Hows yours going anyway? still a monster? if your ever down this way feel free to drop past.

i just gave up, gave the info direct... if he was local i would invite him in to look at the results in person. Im not going to post a customers result without their consent much like i wont post anyones tuned maps unless asked to by the customer (joeyjoejunior was happy to post both his graphs and maps others prefer to stay off the interwebs)

hi trent, car's still going great. hoping to get down there by April, if i do i'll be sure to drop in.

i don't get the mentality round here, you spend years gathering info and then offer it to people for free and you get roasted for it. i gave up a while ago trying to convince people that a single turbo on an rb26 in some cases is a viable alternative. i'll just keep on enjoying mine and give people any help when they ask me in person.

Know-one said singles are viable but if you already have GTss Turbos why would you change unless you were chasing more Power?

If you have excessive lag with GTss Turbos theres something wrong that fitting a single wont fix unless the Turbos are in trouble.

If this question is directed at me I'm not a tuner, nor do I own a workshop and have never tuned a car, not sure what's this has got to do with anything..

You could have deleted the info of the car on the dyno sheet and just displayed the curve, either way you did still give the info didn't you?

Who's getting roasted in giving the right info? If you say it can be done but not back it up with any INFO at all then that deserves a roasting, best to stay out of the discussion if you don't want to participate. And where did I say a single turbo is not a viable alternative? We are talking about this particular setup here where I stated he is wasting his time.

EXACTLY....

There is definetly something wrong there, does the car have cam gears? Have they been dialled in properly? What sort of exhaust is the car running? Boost controller? There are many factors hich may be holding the response back. I say time to look at alternative solutions as far as tuning goes, an experienced RB26 tuner should know better.

which turbo would be best for response and 420-450rwhp out of these

gt3071r .82

gt3076r .63/.82

gt35r .63

very confused

let me know

cheers

out of what youve listed:

3071 wont do it, but will spool quickest

3076 .63 will hold you back, .82 will be most responsive while getting you the power you want but not a c*nt hair more

35r wouldnt be that far off spool wise but would have alot more headroom for later, especially if you plan to build the motor

im no expert but have been doing alot of reading of these exact turbos and more for my RB25. in the end im going for a 250kw single that IMO will be alot faster than a 300rwkw 3076. shower of shit compared to pissing in the wind is the difference between the two i am anticipating.

yet i honnestly have to say, i rekon the GTSS would be the better option.... put them on once and do it right and dust your hands of it. get a set of mild cams and dial em up and a proper tune and ull be laughing, ull get the power and the spool with alot of area under the curve.

the best thing about the GTSS: you already have them.

Hopefully this has directly answered your question, and now we shall let the shit fight continue lol

backyarder pro vs telemarketing tuners GO GO GO!! ENEMY UAV ONLINE!!!!!

(please note i have no intention to offend anyone, only having a laugh)

Was that a typo, or do you think you can make an Rb25 car faster on 250kw with a different turbo to an equivalent 300kw GT3076R setup? Don't get your hopes up too high on that one.

    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
    • OK, onto filling. So I don't really have any pics, but will describe the process as best I can. The USDM workshop manual also covers it from TM-285 onwards. First, make sure the drain plug (17mm) is snug. Not too tight yet because it is coming off again. Note it does have a copper washer that you could replace or anneal (heat up with a blow torch) to seal nicely. Remove the fill plug, which has an inhex (I think it was 6mm but didn't check). Then, screw in the fill fitting, making sure it has a suitable o-ring (mine came without but I think it is meant to be supplied). It is important that you only screw it in hand tight. I didn't get a good pic of it, but the fill plug leads to a tube about 70mm long inside the transmission. This sets the factory level for fluid in the trans (above the join line for the pan!) and will take about 3l to fill. You then need to connect your fluid pump to the fitting via a hose, and pump in whatever amount of fluid you removed (maybe 3 litres, in my case 7 litres). If you put in more than 3l, it will spill out when you remove the fitting, so do quickly and with a drain pan underneath. Once you have pumped in the required amount of clean ATF, you start the engine and run it for 3 minutes to let the fluid circulate. Don't run it longer and if possible check the fluid temp is under 40oC (Ecutek shows Auto Trans Fluid temp now, or you could use an infrared temp gun on the bottom of the pan). The manual stresses the bit about fluid temperature because it expands when hot an might result in an underfil. So from here, the factory manual says to do the "spill and fill" again, and I did. That is, put an oil pan under the drain plug and undo it with a 17mm spanner, then watch your expensive fluid fall back out again, you should get about 3 litres.  Then, put the drain plug back in, pump 3 litres back in through the fill plug with the fitting and pump, disconnect the fill fitting and replace the fill plug, start the car and run for another 3 minutes (making sure the temp is still under 40oC). The manual then asks for a 3rd "spill and fill" just like above. I also did that and so had put 13l in by now.  This time they want you to keep the engine running and run the transmission through R and D (I hope the wheels are still off the ground!) for a while, and allow the trans temp to get to 40oC, then engine off. Finally, back under the car and undo the fill plug to let the overfill drain out; it will stop running when fluid is at the top of the levelling tube. According to the factory, that is job done! Post that, I reconnected the fill fitting and pumped in an extra 0.5l. AMS says 1.5l overfill is safe, but I started with less to see how it goes, I will add another 1.0 litres later if I'm still not happy with the hot shifts.
    • OK, so regardless of whether you did Step 1 - Spill Step 2 - Trans pan removal Step 3 - TCM removal we are on to the clean and refill. First, have a good look at the oil pan. While you might see dirty oil and some carbony build up (I did), what you don't want to see is any metal particles on the magnets, or sparkles in the oil (thankfully not). Give it all a good clean, particularly the magnets, and put the new gasket on if you have one (or, just cross your fingers) Replacement of the Valve body (if you removed it) is the "reverse of assembly". Thread the electrical socket back up through the trans case, hold the valve body up and put in the bolts you removed, with the correct lengths in the correct locations Torque for the bolts in 8Nm only so I hope you have that torque wrench handy (it feels really loose). Plug the output speed sensor back in and clip the wiring into the 2 clips, replace the spring clip on the TCM socket and plug it back into the car loom. For the pan, the workshop manual states the following order: Again, the torque is 8Nm only.
    • One other thing to mention from my car before we reassemble and refill. Per that earlier diagram,   There should be 2x B length (40mm) and 6x C length (54mm). So I had incorrectly removed one extra bolt, which I assume was 40mm, but even so I have 4x B and 5x C.  Either, the factory made an assembly error (very unlikely), or someone had been in there before me. I vote for the latter because the TCM part number doesn't match my build date, I suspect the TCM was changed under warranty. This indeed led to much unbolting, rebolting, checking, measuring and swearing under the car.... In the end I left out 1x B bolt and put in a 54mm M6 bolt I already had to make sure it was all correct
    • A couple of notes about the TCM. Firstly, it is integrated into the valve body. If you need to replace the TCM for any reason you are following the procedure above The seppos say these fail all the time. I haven't seen or heard of one on here or locally, but that doesn't mean it can't happen. Finally, Ecutek are now offering tuning for the 7 speed TCM. It is basically like ECU tuning in that you have to buy a license for the computer, and then known parameters can be reset. This is all very new and at the moment they are focussing on more aggressive gear holding in sports or sports+ mode, 2 gear launches for drag racing etc. It doesn't seem to affect shift speed like you can on some transmissions. Importantly for me, by having controllable shift points you can now raise the shift point as well as the ECU rev limit, together allowing it to rev a little higher when that is useful. In manual mode, my car shifts up automatically regardless of what I do which is good (because I don't have to worry about it) but bad (because I can't choose to rev a little higher when convenient).  TCMs can only be tuned from late 2016 onwards, and mine is apparently not one of those although the car build date was August 2016 (presumably a batch of ADM cars were done together, so this will probably be the situation for most ADM cars). No idea about JDM cars, and I'm looking into importing a later model valve body I can swap in. This is the top of my TCM A couple of numbers but no part number. Amayama can't find my specific car but it does say the following for Asia-RHD (interestingly, all out of stock....): So it looks like programable TCM are probably post September 2018 for "Asia RHD". When I read my part number out from Ecutek it was 31705-75X6D which did not match Amayama for my build date (Aug-2016)
