Whats the difference between the TD05 and TD06? I wouldnt think there is enough wheel difference to make a difference. Is it because the TD05-18G you used was the T518Z rip off so has a different design housing?

Well I just ordered my TD05H-18G. Be interesting to see if backed to back with the TD06-20G. I am hoping I still make 250rwkws and hopefully make at least 25rwkws more at 4,500rpm.

Theres 4mm of difference between the two, and the housing in question is a TD05H specific item.. I dont believe in ground out housings unless they are proven to work. In this case Ive not heard of one of the TD06 IW housings working, yet have heard of one struggling to exceed 240kw (kando).

As for your setup, you will do it on a 10cm.. I think if I was doing a 20 I would run a TD06SL2-18g triangle 8cm. Ive read a few times over the years that a round turbine entry/flow path can give 30% more flow.. Just because its round. I think the 18g has a nicer ramp onto boost and would be good for keeping it on the boil around a track or even on the street.

Keen to see your results either way! And PM me if you have accumulated any SR spec trust housings along the way, I would be interested in buying one of these from you.

Isn't that a fairly small setup? Found a Kinugawa chart indicating they are good for ~250 crank kW at max.

Yeh with a puny 8cm housing on my 18G it is smaller then my Greddy TD06 setup that I am retiring...but am curious to see if it makes more power then an RB20 2530 setup...but with the same if not better response then a 2530 setup.

My TD06 is going off to get some fancy dildo spec alloy compressor so whilst its off being rebuilt will throw the 18G on and compare all 3 setups back to back over about a 2 week period. Greddy TD06-20G:8cm vs TD05H-18G:8cm vs TD06-73HTA. The claim is the new compressor on the 20G will give me T67 power with 20G response. Will see.

If that claim proves wrong and with the new compressor comes extra lag then it may be interesting to throw in the T67-25G I have. Problem is trying to convince the tuner this will be interesting to him to see the merits of each turbo setup...otherwise I will be sinking 2k into tuning just out of curiousity :(

In the back of my head I am curious to see what results the billet compressor gets as there are places in the US doign 68mm billet compressors for TD05H. That could work out to be a nice RB20setup, better response of TD05 but with 20G power

Gtscot, what made u downgrade from the mighty 1JZ to the tractor SR?? Lack of aftermarket support?

There was a 10k to do list on my JZR33 and a car I had owned previously came up for less than half that. Full prepped S14, only catch was the SR was rather tired and the wiring had been butchered since I last touched it.

Mrs bought me a spare motor with 55ks as a gift and I spent a few weeks rewiring the car. JZR33 partout price has exceeded S14 cost so far.

Simple stuff I guess, nothing like a tractor to pull you round a bend.

to whoever has removed the front housing off their turbo, how did you do it and was it hard to do?

noticed some metal shavings in mine after a closer look and would like to clean it up before installation!

has anyone been in contact with eiji lately?

i emailed him on monday cause i was missing the oil return from my kit and he hasn't responded.

Circlip pliers. pretty easy if you have the right tool and know what your doing...

EDIT: the return provided in the t67 kit is just a rubber hose... I went and got a braided line made up for mine.

Was it a brand new turbo? If it was off a car then chances are they were from you removing it, otherwise they would have surely been ingested by now.

its brand new purchased from kando

they are a good product but you need to check that sort of thing before you put them on... only a mechanical part made on mechanical tools...

Circlip pliers and about 3 and a half seconds :)

They do have a TD06 version of the one Jez was tuning the night I met you, but I doubt its what you want... I would stick to a TD05H if you want internal gate, or external gate TD06.

Internal TD05H-18g (trust T518Z):

Internal TD06SL2-20g with T518Z housing:

Internal 20g like above but with 3" comp cover (i think this one would be better):

Somebody must want that one for an RB20!

I have bought one to go on my car. Though I stayed away from the ported cover as I am going to need the 18G to make all the power and response it can on my old RB20. I am very curious to see how the TD05H-18G stacks up against my TD06-20G that I am ripping off

This is the exact one I bought

I seriously need to wake up to myself. I now have a 3 spare turbos, 2 spare brake kits and 5 race seats for two cars :(

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 馃槀 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
