Id be happy with 280. How much boost could i run on stock fuel system and ecu til i gaet it all sorted?
Nope, thats why ill get it going on say 7psi now, then buy pump , injectors etc. Any more advice or info to help me along?
It seems you have missed the OP's topic all together.

He is asking what else is needed once he has this turbo bolted on, and what he can do with it in the meantime. I dont see an issue, chill.

i am "chill" bro it clearly says in these quotes that he wants to run it on stock injectors and ecu. so maybe u missed the point buddy

You are spot on scott, thanks for understanding. I dont care if its slow for a while... it is a heavy wagon and slow now anyway.

then do it all properly and then when its done it will be a f**king animal.

You're still forming your own opinion on what he's GOING to do, rather than what he has said he will do.

He wants to put it on now, and then grab the other supporting mods. He asked (and might I add, YOU QUOTED) how much boost he could safely run with this turbo until he has the rest of the mods.

Stop telling him what you think he SHOULD do, and answer his question on what he CAN do.

Since you ask, yes it is a bad idea. Even with just 245 awkw my Stagea handled so much better on a twisty hill climb in the rain than the 2wd V8s around (as in behind) me.

But if you want to hang the tail out and burn rubber by all means rip out the awd (but why didn't you buy a 2wd version or a Commodore?).

I was hoping it will transform the car, its pretty sad when i have a swb pajero i put injection and turbo on thats faster than the stagea...

TBH dude, keep it simple and easy, go with a highflowed stock turbo. Bolt it on with a full exhaust, Nistune the stock ECU and enjoy it.

It's never going to be a Skyline though and it barely compares to my 32 but, for a >1600kg practical daily driver, it is phenominal :D

Nistune will definitely be suitable, you will need a Z32 afm though and a decent fuel pump (read: Bosch).

Edit: actually, give me more info about your stag (year, model, manual/auto, etc) as not all of them can be Nistuned easily.

    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
