Waits for half of SAU to slap him..... :whistling::whistling:

NAH ! Just put my order through now through paypal. Precision CEA Billet 5558 0.63/T3/V-band plus two silicon joiners $1045 usd delivered to SYD. Wooooott ! ! ! Done! Hurrah.. lol

Were you sweating a little bit as you clicked that button, Ron? :P Lol just jokes mate, looking forward to results, good stuff on finally committing!

I was sweating like a pussy when I clicked that button Hanaldo, and Jase, ur welcome for a ride when done mate, but I'm not a errm..extremely safe/cautious driver..ask err Jez. lol.

lol well making the car even faster is not a good way to become a better driver IMHO.

i generally advise people to thrash the life out of something underpowered to improve their skill. i dont have any advice for you with a 5558 powered NEO :P

All the ones i have done have made big power on 22psi. Havent needed to go bigger boost as of yet

Will be tuning sr20 with 5558 external this week or next. Just running motor in

How did you go with that 5558 on the SR20? Ball bearing or journal? Do you have any further information relevant for SR20? (thanks in advance!)

I just bought a top mount T3 external set-up with 44mm tial gate but minus turbo and am trying to work out what turbo to go for (who isn't :wacko: ).

Currently makes around 270rwk out of a T2 3071 internal gate on 23psi with E85 and Tomei 260 cams, standard bottom end for now (Unigroup dyno) so I obviously want more than that, actually a lot more than that - ie ability to push to 350rwk later on. Unfortunately, it still has to retain reasonable response for a track car (very irregular street car) which makes it a bit trickier.

So far have narrowed it down to;

  • 5558 journal or ball (55 exducer, 58 inducer)
  • 5858 journal or ball (58 exducer, 58 inducer)
  • TD06SL2-20G 8cm (3" inlet, 52.5 exducer, 54.1 inducer - think it might be too small as most results seem to be around the 250-295 mark)
  • TD06SL2-25G 10cm (4" inlet, 60.5 exducer, 54.1 inducer)

It seems the 5558 will make the numbers but on high boost (not good for standard bottom end) and the 5858 will make it easier but will sacrifice some response in doing so (not good for turns 2, 9 at EC and fish hook and last corner at Wakefield ;) ).

Currently leaning towards the 5858 ball bearing but not sure about the response it will give.

jump on NS.com and have a look at DRE20's car, he has a 5858 and the dyno plot makes it look fantastic. very nice and broad powerband. Do this if you really want that 350kw 'down the track' setup.

FYI the TD06SL2 20G is a smaller turbo than what you have now and the TD06SL2 25G (T67) is more of a 6cyl oriented item.

If you simply buy a T3 .63 external gate housing for your current turbo and retune your car will improve everywhere. You should crack closer to 300kw and response will also improve. This is what I recommend you do.

If you want to sell your 3071, please PM me.

Yeah I never thought of that! I just put a brand new rear housing on it a year or so ago. But I think I will sell it.

Yeah I'm on NS and have seen the build. Scale is in speed so hard to tell but the graph does look good. Its also a large bore engine with 90mm pistons.

There's also Joels 5558 BB. Hard to tell what its like with the graph he has put up though.

NYTSKY: Is that not what Hi-Octane were running on their R34 at WTAC?

I think it was a 65, could be wrong.

The 32 had a 6262 on it and was absolutely flying. One of the better sounding cars there too.

    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
