Currently have our rb34 underway atm. Hopefully have it back next week ready for assembly. Wont be until early next year when its ready to run though.

I must say the quality of the kit is astounding. The crankshaft looks mint.

Knew it wouldnt take you long haha

for the Race car?

Yeh its for the race car lol.

Gtst circuit car. Using a new 6boost split pulse manifold with gtx3076r 0.82 divided rear, twin 40mm turbosmart gates, 25 head with solid lifters, gtr inlet manifold/throttle bodies.

So its going to be ultra responsive which is the plan with this new engine. However, if it is too much so and runs out of legs real early then we will throw the 35r back on with a split pulse housing as well and see how it goes then. Either way its going to be interesting!

I was amazed with the torque level my rb30 made - so were many of my passengers...i cant even imagine what an rb34 would feel like!

has anyone here actually experienced an rb34 or even an rb32?

Given Al's results with a GT30 in .82, non-split, it was well and truly maxed out and nosing over in the top end.

With another 400cc it'll be quite interesting to see where the GTX will sit!

GTX3076R with 0.82 divided rear sounds too small for a 3.4L. That would be closer to the equivalent of a 0.63 single rear on a GTX3076R which would be too small for a 3L let alone a 3.4L.

The 1.06 divided rear on the GTX3076R would sure be interesting, would still be ridiculously responsive.

Although I would think the GTX35R with 1.06 divided rear would still be very responsive and make lots of top end on a 3.4L.

Either way super jealous :)

i cant remember the exact size, however, when i built my rb30 - rips advised a .9 rear if i was to go for a single setup.

i do agree with you Harey...1.06 would be a good fit for the larger 3.4ltr

Yeh I agree with you there. Unfortunately what happened was the manifold and turbo was originally intended for just a regular rb30.....then as things often do, the plan changed. Using the 3.4L was an afterthought and not initially intended for that setup. But we are going to try it anyway and see what happens and then more then likely throw the gt35r with a .82 divided rear on and see what happens.

Like I was saying its going to be interesting! Its always fun to try new setups.

only problem is the only divided 1.06 on the market is the ATP housing, which is pretty average.

looking forward to seeing how this goes

I for one am plesently surprised to see someone put together an engine/turbo combination where the turbo isn't running at 50-60% of its capability. While the motor may run out of legs at the redline, really who cares! It will still make 700hp and its mid range power will be simply monsterous. And if you want to go faster you just change gears.

Some people only see the big fat figure up the top..... not the area under the curve.

Michael, Do you know what the .82 divided housing is off originally?

Not too sure to be honest, I think kyle told me he gets them from the states. Im sure he said its from ATP. I suspect it is this one http://www.atpturbo.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=tp&Product_Code=ATP-HSG-080&Category_Code=GTX

But I will find out for sure next week when it all turns up.

    • Resizing injectors in Nistune can be done a couple of ways, and there are a couple of ways that you can make a mess of it. The tuner needs to be really aware of the effects of whichever approach he uses (either K, or TIM). They are both easy enough to "get the injector size right" to run the engine. But little details like old start enrichment and hot start are affected differently, depending on which boxes you check.
    • Pretty safe to say almost everyone that has tuned their own car has experienced this issue. The difference being that we have our laptop in the car and when it happens, it's literally 10 seconds of tuning to sort it.  Would you be happy to plug in your laptop and sort this yourself? It is a very simple process and there is no risk of harming your engine (if you are worried about that). 
    • Yeah thats the next step now, either they wil or i will take out for a drive to work and go straight their after work and see is we get the same issues 🤞  thought i try my luck here too, never know someone else might have had the same issue but thanks for the reply 
    • Basically your tuner needs to drive it for the 30 min (or whatever) to create the same conditions then check the ECU settings and sensors at that time. They may not be excited to because that takes them 30 min rather than just opening the bonnet and seeing the problem straight away.... Hot start is generally not as tricky as cold start, but there would be a table for fuel enrichment vs coolant temp as a starting point
    • Yeah, they all cant say anything for sure as everything is working fine . Said unable to find an issue untill it stops again. Could mist likely be CAS wiring or IAS valve issue but again not 100%
