My 30DET is now running TDO6H 25G, budget build with Hybrid manifold and 50mm Turbosmart gate. Turbine is the 11 blade option with 12cm housing. Tighe camshafts correctly dialled. Track car, chasin

With the 12cm a bit more energy was put into trying to get it to hold boost. Didn't exhaust ourselves as I dont want to spend too much $ fiddling around when the setups are going to get swapped. Main thing is we get to see the character and idea of response and numbers. But curious that it wasn't anywhere as simple as getting the other combos to hold boost.

This is similar to what I found with the 1.06 tial. Nothing in the Turbosmart instructions worked so I had to design my own setup using the 5 port. Buggered if I would be paying a workshop to diagnose all the issues I have had so far...

Anyway, good luck with the HTA, should be a good thing on the 25.

Well after some head scratching found a problem with the Turbosmart gate. Will be surprised if its the cause of the boost problem but either way the thing needs fixing as the bottom of the alloy housing is pissing air through the valve stem due to a failed o-ring. Seems to be made of rubber which has naturally hardened and failed. So in theory that would make the thing spike or run higher boost than expected but will see.

just got my rb25 tuned the other day with the td06sl2 10cm, greddy copy, 440cc injectors, aftermarket throttle body, custom low mount steampipe manifold, full 3 inch exhaust.

Car made 268 hp on 15 psi and it started to lean out on full throttle.. and this is my problem now D:

wasn't your tuner able to diagnose this on the dyno?

I can have a guess and say it was your............... wheelnuts? I mean it was on the dyno... why couldn't the tuner work it out? Its almost impossible to guess what did it without getting you to check nearly everything including the wheel nuts, but it would have taken said tuner under an hour MAX.

Argh this R32 seems very resistant to do what it should do. How was the 73HTA behaving in terms of spool compared to the other setups? It's a shame to hear it sounds like it might now get its chance in the sun due to external factors.

Very keen on this also :yes:

Nothing amazing. Nbew fuel system is about finished. Turbosmart parts arrive today. So hopefully over the weekedn get things sorted and get theh thing fully tuned on Monday. Only the 73HTA is already off :) I looked in the mirror and deep down inside I knew I wanted to run the TD06H-25G...ie a Man's Turbo :)

The 73HTA had near identical spool and looked as though it would tune up ok but ran out of fuel. I canned it as wanted to see how the gruntier 25G was going to go response wise with the smaller 10cm housing. Also want to make sure that I have the biggest dirtiest turbo I have on there to check the engien as there is possible there is a restriction somewhere in my setup that is capping power as nothing tried to date has allowed the thing to make the power of the RB20 :(

So need to rule out the fact that my kinder surprise engine isnt somehow a bit ordinary at making power. Its got good bits, Good compression, pressure. No blow by. Tunes up right...we did run out of fuel but it doesnt really make any more power at 20psi then it does at 15psi so ?!?!?!

^ ditto, but I can see where you are coming from. Shame about the resulting what-ifs, but if it spooled well and we know that it is only a few lb/min lower flowing than the 25G (~54lb/min vs ~58lb/min?) then it isn't a bad indicator.

Will see how the 10cm housing goes. If it is somewhere between teh 8cm and 12 cm (makes sense) than I will grab 40-40rwkws through the midrange which given the 25G wheel gives me the sort of power that I am after ...well not being able to put a 10cm housing on the 20G or 73HTA is a killer.

:blink: i made 267kws on pulp @ 15psi...you should be pissing in around 350hp atws...

You need more fuel? E85 Walbro pump, Bosch 1000's and ethanol in the tank... Win.

I think he has bigger issues at hand man...e85 is your answer to everything...:laugh:

stock GTR injectors yeah....invest in IDs...Nissan will love you :D

from my experience, unlike bigger turbos the SL2 doesn't get a huge improvement from e85 anyway...its great on Pulp too...18psi should see you around 280kw ish...

I agree with the above. The L2 20G is a fairly efficient item where it gets close to its maximum flow without the need of E85. Dont need to convert to ethanol to get the right power out of it.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!

      http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.

      R32 GTST - 600KW+ RB28/CD009 Build

      Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?

      Intro/R33 owner

      By f00stx · Posted

      Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).

      Second time Skyline owner (R33 GTS-T and now a V36 370GT)

      Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
