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

      Are you an oil nerd?

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I think the concept is highlighting the various scenarios where thicker oil helps, and thicker oil potentially doesn't help and only generates heat and costs power, in turn for safety which isn't actually any safer (unless you're going real hot). If anything this does highlight why throwing Castrol 10w-60 for your track days is always a solid, safe bet.

      Jason should have shown a real viscosity vs temp chart. All the grades have very little viscosity difference at full operating temperature.

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Yep, if you are applying filler it sounds like there is something wrong with the body lol. Safe to assume there is going to be a lot of sanding going on if your still applying fillers.  Picture a perfect bare metal panel, smooth as glass. You lay down your primer, it's perfect. (why are you going to sand it?) You lay down the colour and clear, it's perfect. No sanding at all took place and you've got a perfectly finished panel.  You won't be chasing your tail, sounds like you were prepping to start laying filler. If your happy with the body after the sanding, there is some bare metal exposed and some areas with primer, no issues at all, start laying the filler. You are safe to lay filler on bare metal or primer (of course check your technical data sheet as usual for what your filler is happy to adhere to).  This isn't a 100% correct statement. There is primer that is happy to adhere to smooth bare metal. There are fillers that are happy to adhere to smooth bare metal. Just make sure you're using the right materials for the job.  Typically if you are using filler, you would go primer, colour and clear. I've never seen any instances before where someone has laid colour over body filler (maybe this happens, but I haven't seen it before). So your plan sounds pretty normal to me.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I don't think there's any way someone is push starting this car.. I honestly can barely move it, and moving it and steering it is just flat out not possible. I'm sure it is, but needs a bigger man than me. I have a refurbished starter now. The starter man was quite clear and consise showing me how nothing inside a starter really should contribute to slow cranking, and turned out that for the most part... my starter was entirely fine. Still, some of the wear items were replaced and luckily it didn't show any signs of getting too hot, being unfit for use, etc. Which is 'good'. I also noticed the starter definitely sounded different, which is a bit odd considering nothing should have really changed there.... Removed and refit, and we'll pretend one of the manifold bolts didn't fully tighten up and is only "pretty" tight. GM only wants 18ft/lb anyway. I also found a way to properly get my analog wideband reading very slightly leaner than the serial wideband. There's Greg related reasons for this. The serial output is the absolute source of truth, but it is a total asshole to actually stay connected and needs a laptop. The analog input does not, and works with standalone datalogging. Previously the analog input read slightly richer, but if I am aiming at 12.7 I do not want one of the widebands to be saying 12.7 when the source of truth is 13.0. Now the source of truth will be 12.65 and the Analog Wideband will read 12.7. So when I tune to 12.7 it'll be ever so slightly safer. While messing with all of this and idling extensively I can confirm my car seems to restart better while hot now. I did add an old Skyline battery cable between the head and the body though, though now I really realise I should have chosen the frame. Maybe that's a future job. The internet would have you believe that this is caused by bad grounds. In finding out where my grounds actually were I found out the engine bay battery post actually goes to the engine, as well as a seperate one (from the post) to the body of the car. So now there's a third one making the Grounding Triangle which is now a thing. I also from extensive idling have this graph. Temperature (°C) Voltage (V) 85 1.59 80 1.74 75 1.94 70 2.1 65 2.33 60 2.56 55 2.78 50 2.98 45 3.23 40 3.51 35 3.75 30 4.00   Plotted it looks like this. Which is actually... pretty linear? I have not actually put the formula into HPTuners. I will have to re-engage brain and/or re-engage the people who wanted more data to magically do it for me. Tune should be good for the 30th!
