Hey all my first post!!! had a quick search couldnt find what i was after, I am curious to know how strong the ceramic wheeled turbos that come stock with my GTR??

What amount of 'torture' can they withstand??

And also what are some of your opinions of the ARC super induction box??

thanks

std ceramic exhaust wheel like the other gtr ones

it may fail if you go over 12psi ish

if it fails, it can kill the engine

So would it be better to leave on standard boost and save up for new turbos??

Say N1s or GTSS or garret equivalent

If you go R34 GTR N1's, they are pretty much the equivalent to HKS GTSS, different Compressor Housing and Compressor Wheel.

Specs wise is very similar, but max power output is approx:

N1's = 367.75 kW

GTSS = 411.88

... From memory.

WRAOWNG - Neg.

2860-7s ARE r34 N1s and 2859-9s are HKS GTSS without actuators (i believe 2859-1 are the same with the actuators attached or get -9s and use ur stock actuators)

N1s are not GTSS, they are 2 different turbos.

N1s are alot like stock but stronger as not ceramic, go the GTSS (-9)

Ah yeah!

Fuck, I over looked that on my turbo chart.

Thanks.

BTW there are 3 Spec of R34 GTR N1's :P

I just compared the specs and they were quite similar but the GTSS and -7's are pretty much inline ball with each other... Like you said.

GTR R34N1 (14411-AA403)

GT22 / C106 / 44.5 - 60.0 / 55T / 0.42 / T25 / GT25 / 42.4 - 53.8 / 62T / 0.64 / Ball Bearing.

Garrett 707160-7

GT25 / GT25 / 44.5 - 60.0 / 55T / 0.42 / GT25 / GT25 / 42.4 - 53.8 / 62T / 0.64 / Ball Bearing.

HKS GT-SS

T04B / GT25 / 44.46 - 59.41 / 56T / 0.42 / T25 / GT25 / 42.4 - 53.85 / 62T / 0.64 / Ball Bearing.

lol that i did not know!

post it up

34N1 (14411-AA401)

T3 / C106 / 44.5 - 60.0 / 55T / 0.6 / T25 / GT25 / 42.4 - 53.8 / 62T / 0.64 / Ball Bearing.

34N1 (14411-AA402)

T3 / C106 / 44.5 - 60.0 / 55T / 0.6 / T25 / GT25 / 42.4 - 53.8 / 62T / 0.64 / Ball Bearing

34N1 (14411-AA403)

Pretty much the same but the Compressor Housing and the Compressor A/R are different.

Stock R34 GTR turbos run around 0.8 bar boost with restrictor in. With boost restrictor removed they run about 1 bar. On the ball bearing turbos 1 bar is fine.

Problem is, most people think their boosted 'genuine' 60,000km gtr will withstand 1 bar forever... Only to realise the Turbos have done more like '160,000' km's after they go bang.

    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂
