I currenctly have GT-SS on my RB26 with a os giken flywheel. Response is unbelivable. Lag doesn't exist for me.

I'm interesting in going rb30 because I want more torque. However, I don't want to go higher than 550whp because my tranny won't take it, clutch will wears too easily etc.

With that said, I went throught the 6 pages of rb30 dyno and I think I saw like 3 Twin turbo built.

Have you heard of any rb30 with twin -5, GT-SS, HKS 3510 ? what was the income?

Much appreciated!

Check the Dyno threads for RB26 for an idea what the turbos will make.

GT-SS's will not make 550WHP on 98 Fuel, also these would be too small on a 3 litre bottom end.

-5's May* make this power and would be my choice for a streetable solution on a 3 litre bottom end.

Don't know enough about the 3510(s*) to comment.

* = depends on setup and head etc.

Politely Ask N1GTR about his setup (3L bottom end with GT-RS x 2 but now going to -5's)

My brother is in the process of building a RB30DETT. He will be using a set of rebuilt IHI turbo's from a twin turbo liberty or something. They were reportedly pulled from an RB30DETT making somewhere around 300rwkw with supporting mods. Really great, responsive turbo's if you can get your hands on 'em.

There is a thread on the net somewhere with a couple of backyard mechanics strapping a pair of them onto a stock 1jz with no form of boost control. They free boosted for around 6 months till they blew!

The Rb30 will make mountains of torque with any turbo setup. I blew 12 gearbox's then put Redline gear oil in....haven't broken one since....plenty of power now to. see my signature block.

I fell GT-SS's will run out of puff very quickly on a 3ltr. -5's would be the smallest I would go....The starter motor would still bring them on boost...

Yeah 3L is nice. GTSS on 3L with really high CR and E85 would be ultimate on twisty hillclimbs.

I get the feeling if you are using E85 + high CR on a 3 Litre then you might even be able to go bigger then GT-SS without sacrificing any response, thoughts ?

You will have to loose response with -5s, bigger turbos will spool later. The question is; how much difference is it, and is it worth paying for a 3lt bottom end if you're only going to run SS's. Since you already have the SSs you could try it out - it would be interesting to see how it went. Next step up is -5s, and as you've said you'll really be wanting a stronger gearset if you go to high 300kws.

Well the OP wants zero lag, that has to be the way to get it. That setup would be great for tight uphill courses, I wouldn't go that extreme though, I'd go -5's. It would be nice to try but like anything it's not exactly a cheap exercise! Plus the step back in kw would shit me

Ever driven a stock supra TT? There's so much response it's crazy but lacks the outright power, the OP is just trying to find the balance between power/torque/response like most of us here.

i would guess you get a similar result with that GT-SS + RB30 setup to Al's GT30 + RB30, just has power everywhere.

If it does, then it's a great combo.

Al's car is seriously fun to drive, last I drove it it had exactly as you say power everywhere and not a lot of grip on the pan at deca. He may aswel forget using first gear, it's that good.

Nah never driven a supra.

Agree on the -5's perfect turbo for the job.

Still trying to decide what I will do. maybe I should look for a stroker 2.8 instead.

Like I said, I'm used to my 400whp anti-lag GT-SS, I don't want to loose that. a couple friends and I went in the mountain and I must say, I had the quickest car-more fun to drive this day because of the gtss turbos.

Getting to 500whp would be sweet. I don't want to start swapping tranny every 2 months LOLLLL think my OS ts2b will be fine however.

surely after 2 you would think shit.. i might need something better than a standard box???

i didnt even wana find the limit of 1 so the plan was made early to put a better box in.

cost of 12 boxes somewhere near $9000+??? say at $800 per second hand box

OS giken gearset $6000 fully assembled

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I refreshed the OEM injectors with the kit and connected it up. It now ideals okay even with the IACV removed. Driving still has the same cutoff issue like the 550cc injectors so the issue is somewhere else. I bought FPG's Fuel Pump Hanger. I will be installing it next, but it is not as straightforward as I thought it was with my limited wiring knowledge and no instruction on the specific model I purchased (FPG-089). I also got the incorrect billet clamp as I could not find info on the OEM sizing.

      Stop looking at the garage floor, and turn the radio up a bit louder if there's any strange noises...

      Unknown sound similar to BOV on positive boost with partial throttle RB26

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      No. Turbo shuffle and surge/flutter are not the same thing. Specifically, on a GTR, turbo shuffle has a definite meaning. On a GTR, the twin turbos are assumed to be the same thing and to operate the same way, exactly. In reality, they do not. Their exhaust sides are fed and exhaust a little differently, to each other. Their inlet sides are fed and exhausted a little differently, to each other. Consequently, when they are "working" they are often at slightly different points on the compressor map compared to each other. What this means, particularly when coming on boost, is that one of them will spool up and start producing extra flow compared to the other, which will put back pressure on that other compressor, which will push the operating point on that other compressor up (vertically). This will generally result in it bumping up against the surge line on the map, but even if it doesn't, it upsets the compressor and you get this surging shuffle back and forth between them That is "turbo shuffle" on a GTR. It is related to other flutter effects heard on other turbo systems, but it is a particular feature of the somewhat crappy outlet piping arrangement on RB26s. There are plenty of mods that have been attempted with varying levels of success. People have ground out and/or welded more material into the twin turbo pipe to try to prevent it. Extending the divider inside it works, removing material doesn't. There are aftermarket replacement twin turbo pipes available, and these exist pretty mush purely because of this shuffle problem.

      You can temporarily* use lock collars to keep it in place until you can do the bushes, back the nuts off, slide them in, snug back up. *temporarily is often for ever

      Thanks for the quick reply. To be clear, when you say turbo shuffle do you mean turbo flutter "stustustu" or referring to something else? I had thought they were the same thing. When I wrote the post my intention was to say it wasn't a flutter/compression surge sound. My understanding was that a flutter sound would be occurring when throttle is released, whereas I can keep the throttle in the same position for this noise
