Turbo Setup On Rb26/30. T51r?

[MattsR33]

Hey guys,

Im currently in the process of building a 26/30 for my R33 GTST, Ive got a Spool Imports RB30 Block, and BU5TERS old RB26 head, HKS 280 PRO cams, ported, Tomei springs etc etc. I was just wondering what turbo setup to go with.

I was thinking either T04Z or HKS T51R.. Dont want a massive lag monster, but some is acceptable. What kind of RPM will the T51R come onto full boost? Also the T04z?

Havent really seen many 26/30's with HKS T51r on them, or know much info about when boost hits etc.

Cheers, Matt

How much power do you want?

That will dictate what turbo/how much lag you need to deal with

if you have the head from bu5ter why not ask its previous owner, bu5ter ran a T51R for ages.

[MattsR33]

600+ and ill be more then happy! In terms of turbo lag, i would like it to be on boost before 5000rpm.

Have also PM'd Bu5ter, but no response, dont think hes on here that often anymore.

600rwhp?

A T04Z will do 440rwkw (600rwhp), not sure how much more you'll get out of it though.

And it will most certainly be well onto boost before 5000rpm mate

[TiTAN]

T04Z wont sound the same as the T51R though.

The T51 on the transbrake sounds like a jet taking off.

[R32 Driver]

a T51r-KAI will be at its limit around 600rwhp

i think there rated at 800ps, with that sort of head work it should be fairly responsive for a big single

[GUN_METAL_GTR32]

go the t51r for sure man

will be a tad laggier than the to4z but will sound amazing

My mate has a T04Z on his 25t/30, 280' 10.25 cams and I think that's making about 1bar by 4000rpm.

[MattsR33]

Cheers guys!

Yeah, ive always loved the T51R spool noise! T04Z on full? boost by 4000rpm is pretty good.

Im leaning towards the T51R, alot of people have said dont bother with the T04z, but then again, vice versa.

As long as its on boost before 5000rpm ill be reasonably happy with the result! I Spose time will tell!

Cheers!

T51R OR GTFO

I used to have a Greddy T78-33D on a stock 2jz (720ps rating i think)

That made 1bar at around 4k redline @ 6800

how hard do you plan to rev the motor?

[fatz]

im a fair way from having my r31 runing but guess we will find out how the t51r goes on it

[nsmo30tt]

I'm also interested in this.. I don't have the money for it right now but I'd like to see results. Does the SPL take much longer to spool? or is it something else because it doesn't cost much more bus has 200ps more than the KAI

Also are there any twin setups that could get close to this power and i mean from a fully worked 30

twin 2860-10's can get 450-500kw, if thats not enough you could go twin GT30's but you need to get creative to make it all fit.

[nsmo30tt]

Thanks for that titan, now do you think those twins will have better response than a big single.. I know generally thats the case, but would it be in this particular case with those twins with a stroked, ported bigger cams ect ect head

And if one were to go the GT30 option.. what GT30 would suit best

I think the HKS 3037's were popular in japland for making bulk power.. that's what those cars that do 0-300km/h in 13 seconds were running.

[Beer Baron]

if you want 440rwkw you'd be hard pressed to go past a set of HKS 2530s or HKS GT-RS. the 2530s will easily make 400rwkw and could make the 440 with some serious boost. the GTRS will make it easily. and either of those set-ups will be miles more responsive than a T04Z or a T51R. same power and much better response. I know which I'd go with. the only downside is the twins are a bit more difficult to work on. look at the Advan/Hi-Octane GTR. it makes more than the power you want and still uses small low mount twins. amazing response in it too.

[GUN_METAL_GTR32]

there is a dude on the forums who has a twin 3037 setup in a 32r

1001hp and sub 9 sec quarters good enought for ya.

whats the difference between a gt42r and a t51r spl there both rated at 1000hp but which would be better for a drag r34 with a 26/30 in it i was pretty set on the 42 until reading this thread.

[nsmo30tt]

0-300 in 13 seconds sounds nice.. so does 1001hp.. ooh this sounds good, any specific info on the housing ect. I'll also have a look for the Advan/Hi-Octane GTR

and is the 3037 the same as the 3037s if not whats the difference
