what have you got in the pipeline now the vet is for sale PJ? something bigger?

I thought about a turbo V8, but realistically it would throw the handling out and I want to do some track days so going to stick with what I know, if it sells.

I was looking on the precision site and was wondering if anyone has managed to install 2 lowmount billet turbos into a gtr? Would be an interesting step from the good ol' garrett -7, 9 and 5s.

The gtx versions look great too as low mounts but precisions great results seen so far would be very interesting to see.

What turbos? it's all good to low mount them but it means custom intake and exhaust sides. Mega effort!!!

the main issue is picking the right ones to low mount, so all that mega effort doesnt get wasted : D

Looking at the 4828 400hp unit, not sure if it would fit and im sure it would require alot of work but there are always some crazy builds where someone wants to do something different.

Just looking at the gtx2860 thread and the r34 gtr build; having to buy a set of -5 turbs to modify and welding the snout and outlet. Hopefully there will be some bolt-on options for these turbines if there is enough demand.

These precision units are sooooo tempting for me; the 6262 was on my mind but i settled on the -9s because of the stock look.

Im very impressed with the powertune r34 gtr and the drag s13 silvia from motive dvd....amazing!!!

I don't know if it interests you, but I've spoken to hypertune about a low mount twin gate manifold. It's little in your face than a high mount and will make plumbing the gates in easier.

wow, would be similar to the manifolds used by twoogle right? great for people who wish to make big power using twins; would say it was kinda a lost cause considering how simple it is to buy a 6bob manifold and that the gt-rs/-10 turbos arent the best in many peoples opinions.

this is why im interested in these new range of turbos like the gtx28, precisions billets and perhaps borg warner units in development.

for myself, im sticking with the stock rb26 manifolds but in the future when I do a rebuild, i would want these options

cheers mate

Paul's low mounts, he used standard ported manifolds with his 2530's/RS setup?

I have a 6466 on an rb28, and i expect in excess of 500awkw. Might be a little bit too extreme on a daily strees sil. Buut, look at PJ's THING, because thats what it is, a freakish THING. It has a monster and still makes powers that are usuable for speeding up the rotation of the earth arouns the axis of the suns, and stuff

i love this post.

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
