hey guys basically i am wanting to upgrade my turbo for a bit more power i dont want a big laggy turbo i want a nice hard spooling one,would i have to change manifold ? am trying to find some 740 cc nismo injectors for it as well

my car has done 173000 kms done a compression test today it is currently

1 130

2 130

3 125

4 130

i do have a budget in mind i dont want to spend alot of money but want a good setup that will bring me hard boost and pull i heard gt 3071 r s ideal i dont knoe hear so many diff things

i am chasing atleast 240 kw

any advice

stock highflow would be cheaper to reach 240rwkw, hypergear do some good highflow stuff and can steer you with which one...

3071r will do it too...

need an ecu, I dont recommend piggybacks... PoweFC is my recommendation but others will suggest nistune cause its cheaper and I hear does the job...

injectors possibly, 740cc will be overkill, SR20 JDM injectors or 500cc, you could possibly get away with the stockers with a fuel pressure bump... I'll recommend new injectors though, get a new fuel pump as well of course...

and then onto boost control...

its starting to rack up huh....

do the installs yourself to save a heap though...

then when your finished you get the mod bug and want more power... so plan ahead maybe...

ok so a gt3071 r will do the job for me ? will this be ok on stock manifold will it still work well? external gated or internally ?

what are these turbos capable of making ? maybee if i want to push 250 260 kw ?

in tank walbro 500 hp pump be ok will i need fuel pressure adjustable reg ?

have you even bothered to read the dyno thread?

or perhaps a quick search with 'gt3071'???

this is all very basic stuff.

have a search/do some reading and you'll be surprised at how much info there is... far more than you'll probably get in this thread.

for 240kw i would definitely hiflow the stock turbo, contact hypergear.

the advantage is the turbo will bolt back into place and the modification process will be much cheaper in the long run. gt3071 is a 280+kw turbo.

[guys would a kkr 430 with a .63 housing do the job what power would it make for me and would it spool nice cause i can get one really cheap like i seriously dont know i spose these are cheap crap i dont know

everyone can get them really cheap, cause they are shit

A hiflow from hypergear can be had for around 1000$ maybe less, will perform better and bolts straight up...

give it a general service (good plugs ,oils, filters etc) get a decent fuelpump is under 200 and a remap on yourr ecu for around 500 maybe and you could have easy 220-230kw...for less than 2000$.

Assuming you can do the work yourself..pay someone else to do it and you can double that figure...

ive been running a hks2530 on my 33 for over a year with 555cc's and a power fc, made 233rwkw on 1.1bar with stock motor. i highly rate this turbo for round this power range, come on boost same as stock and same power band as stock just 233rwkw :rofl:.

I may be wrong but i think a 3071 will require a custom dump pipe, to reach your goals a hypergear (have a look in this section for a thread on them) will be plenty to get you closer to 270rwkw and is a direct replacement for your standard turbo, a general rule of thumb is that a healthy 25 with handle 300rwkw but over (and even around) that power level is a crap shoot, 270rwkw will be fairly safe.

As for injectors, i have just had my 500cc injectors cleaned and tested and was told that they should still be safe for 350rwkw so unless you are going to be using E85 there is no reason to go over 500cc.

Ecu will need to be changed, there are many options but by far the easiest to install and tune and probably best for budget applications all the way through to higher power applications is a power fc.

But you also need to do research, unlike other the forums the amount of info and detail on this forum is awesome and goes well beyond the amount of info you require.

Edit: forgot to mention you will also need a fuel pump.

Read these answers carefully.....

then

Hi-flowed stock turbo is the cheapest, easiest, best bet to reach your 240rwkw target.

A click of the search button will answer all the "why's and wherefore's" but the answer won't change unless you change your power requirements or budget.

I missed that one, do a search, you want power and minimal lag, with a kkr you need lots of boost for minimal power and heaps of lag.

As many ppl have said, go with a hypergear hiflow: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Hy...ce-t261613.html best bang for buck you will find and they have options from low 200rwkw to over 300rwkw, stao knows his shit, tell him what you want and you will get it.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
