GCG highflow is around 1700-1800. not sure bout hypergear. maybe get highflow and ecu and run on the limits of the AFM until you have the coin to get a Z32 and injectors as AFM will run out of legs before the injectors

For $2000-$3000 - No.

Injectors are $700-800, ECU + tune is at least $1500.

$2300 before you even start with the turbo, fitting, new dump etc. Then comes the clutch and everything else.

You need at least 5k realistically maybe more.

For 2~3 Grand you can get a GT3076R in the new nissan 6 bolt housing. (I think they were for $2300). Or get hypergear to do your high flow, they can make your stockie to pump 300rwkws+. Check their thread out.

Not one supporting mod listed there. What good is a turbo if you have no other parts to make use of it?

As i said - its a good 5k adventure.

I had a look at that, and was wondering how it fit, as as far as im aware, the GT30R needs a 10mm spacer to clear everything on an RB20/25 with a stock manifold.

How'd they get around that one?

Mine was a factory OP6 high flow, every thing bolted back the way it was. the 300rwkws+ high flow I referred to was the so called "pu high flow" which comes with a .82 OEM pattened turbine end. From photos all it needed was a oil feeding line like all their other high flows. It runs on factory comp housing so I guess spacer is not needed. Have a read in their thread, lots of information:

Whilst it makes 300rwkw, the power band is not that of say a GT30 which has a good 1000rpm extra to play with.

Horses for courses i guess and many factors one must consider when purchasing a turbo.

Yeah a turbo might make "X" power, but the real point is just how it makes that power. Is it responsive, how much RPM do you have to work with etc.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
