Is any one running a td05 16g on there rb20?

Looking at maybe getting one for my 20 for response I'm thinking it would come on around 3500 rpm mark?

Want to push around 220kw mark for a drift car !

Back in around 2006 my flatmate put an EVO3 TD05-16G onto his RB20DET on the stock manifold with an external wastegate plumbed up - made 20psi by around 3800rpm if I remember rightly, was awesome fun to drive though never got a final power figure for it unfortunately.

Here's the graph with your 17.5psi run Artz.

We should arrange a time to drive each other's cars (if you don't mind)... I struggled with the choice between T67 and TD06-20G for ages, so it would be good to drive a well set up version of each back to back.

Wow Except for that bit where you hit full boost , im still a bit on top.. until. 6k when im out..

Be a funny race , as long we get traction down the same you should power ahead when I change gear.

I would catchup when you change gear but I'd think you would stay well ahead..

I wasn't running out of legs on the straight at PI really, it was still pulling hard in 5th when I hit the braking zone..

We tried 20psi but it didn't make anymore power, intake temps starting going up. Might be different with a better intercooler. Trent said he was quite conservative with the timing though. Engine is also high on K's. Simon has shown the T67 will keep going with more boost, but this is the best we could safely get out of my setup. I'm not complaining though!

Yer I'm pretty keen on getting a kendo one maybe even go ex gate on STD manifold or just get a internal gate one just want a response turbo for drifting

if u do go internal gate, get a T25 based one (the SR20 type) as the T3 ones SUCK. You will then need to get a T3-T2 adapter and make a dump to suit.

that being said, i dont think it would end up that much more expensive to just go external gate TD05H 18G T3 8cm.

HOWEVER, if talking making that sort of power your probably BEST off just getting your stock turbo rebuilt by hypergear. it will work out cheaper and the chances are you will get better results as you can tell him exactly what you are after, no hidden surprises. you say i want full boost by X and this much power, he will tell you what he can make to meet your targets or how close you can get to your targets with which turbo.

An update to my pretty minor but annoying saga regarding a missing oil line and complete lack of communication from Eiji - after some negative feedback he finally got in contact and we have finally resolved things (and I removed the negative feedback). I now have the missing oil line and things are all good :)

I don't think so, his last message indicated he was keen to do business again, so I think all is good.

I did notice all those feedback messages on eBay though where he states, straightaway, any issue (even if he is apparently to blame), BLOCKED! No soup for you haha. That's why I was worried about things initially.

Oh well, all sorted now.

Did he block you afterwards Justinn?

    • Nice one, I'd argue that the white S1 RS260 is certainly the best looking of the Stageas. And yes, fully agree on the forum situation. It's a bit of a shame, but at least SAU is a good place to be. I found the facebook groups to give me FOMO because people were trying to one-up each other and show off in some way. Feels much more natural here. There are people with seriously nice builds, but I can appreciate it rather than it making me question my life choices. Might be that people are more open with sharing how much work/money/suffering it takes to actually get there. 
    • Evening, wanted to pop in and finally register to say hi to everyone here on SAU!   It's been a while since I've been active on a forum, but back in the day I used to be relatively active on ClubLexus and other hobby-related forums. I'm glad to see SAU is still around, since with the advent of Facebook and Discord it seems forums aren't what they once were. As a recent new owner of an S1 260RS Stagea, I've found so many older guides and helpful tips from SAU that I figured I needed to join and say a grave thank you. My recent acquisition has only become legal in the US for the past year, and knowing that similar car enthusiasts from across the pond have already figured out the kinks and tricks to get these 25+ year old cars running well. I look forward to diving into more of the SAU forums as well as hopefully contribute some info myself for future posterity.   As a pic tax, here is one of the few good photos I have of my Stagea. I hope to get way more in the future!    
    • Is this where I say "Hey man my airbox cost me horsepower in my Naturally Aspirated Engine"? (I know you need them for legality in NSW)
    • 1.5mm alloy folded up, it will need a tweek, as the angled bend only got to around 45° as that was the max that the break press would get with the other bends, and I needed a fair bit more, but and the alloy is easy to bend too my will by hand once I trim the lower section out I'll Dremel out and form the angle and mounting point on the lower section when time permits  As for the lid, I'm looking at going a "cap", instead of a flat lid to hide the fixtures a bit
