I don't think it's a case of how long it will last, moreso how it will break. We pulled the head off on the weekend, pistons were absolutely mint, no detonation marks at all.

We're thinking it will be conrod or gudgeon pin related when it fails. Either way we're looking forward to seeing how.

It is our development car, and we have a BC 2.2L bottom end assembled ready to go when it goes boom!

As mentioned previously, we will offer free tuning to a donor RB25DET owner wanting to put one on a 5557 purchased from us. Don't be shy guys :verymad: If we had an RB25 as one of our project cars it would be on it!

Other side of Australia so no chance of that haha

What are the housing sizes on these things like, I assume you would need a spacer to bolt onto a standard RB25 manifold?

I tried (not to that extent) with my 3037S with a 1.12 a/r rear. It made 376kW on 25psi on my SR, we didn't got further as the boost line started to fall. I think that all I would have been doing is overspooling it.

Very interested to see the mode of failure when it does go, could you post a thread up for all of us to see if (when) it does fail?

Wow, good offer kemp, someone should take up on this offer :D

Just to let you know guys, we are now offering the 62 and 67 range with divided split pulse T4 housings. This is something new from Precision, I'm sure it will make it a lot more attractive for some of you with twin scroll setups! We have .84 in stock and are able to offer 1.00 and .70

We supply the whole billet range from the 5557 to 6765 comes with a 0.70 a/r comp cover, however we can special order the non ported covers which have a 2.8" intake, as far as I'm aware they are a 0.60a/r front, similar to a 3076R in size.

Well after some Friday arvo beers I managed to Gee the boss up pretty hard, basically I stressed that there was no point in us going out to get kicked off for a mid 10, let's try to run a 9....

So, I came back around 30 seconds later with a 6262SP in hand and it didn't take much convincing. Friday was a party here at Powertune, music cranking, cashews, chips, and within a very short time the turbo was on and the Red Dragon was getting reversed onto the rollers.

Had a solid 5 passes on the dyno, but we knew the 6262 needed a bit more boost to get it in the zone, though 45psi didn't agree with something in the engine! It filled number 2 and 3 with water so we're thinking it's either lifted the head again or cracked the block around a water jacket.

Anyway, I've rocked up here this morning and the engine is out, and 2.2L stroker in ready to go, in fact they're finish up the install of the built engine now with the 6262SP on. Get ready for round 2 :)

We were getting frustrated with it living :)

The other passes were on a lower boost setting

Well it copped the initial load, then unleashed the tyres with 3 of us in the back which it has never done, it did hold 45psi flat though.

It would have definitely been over 430kW, I'd say 450kW at a guess. Sadly we'll never know!

Will keep you updated when we crack it open to find out the truth

    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • 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.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
