How come the one with -9s has boost control issues?

I'm curious on how -9s with boost control issue fixed would stack up compare to -7s in terms of response.

Don't know. Mate of mine said mine was quite a bit more responsive than his, given our turbos are similar, we now know why.

No doubt he'll get it fixed eventually. Could be 100 things.

Ash, great effort on the comparo this is exactly what makes this site useful.

I'm looking for turbos at this stage and your turbos seem very appealing, theyre more responsive and overpower the 9s. Boost issues aside, the 9s seem to be behind these hybrids by some way.

Do you know if race pace will be selling these offshelf?

With a GTR, it's more like 10,000 things!

Yeah yours look as responsive as, wouldn't mind having a ride in it.

I'm curious on -9s being bit laggier than -7 from my exprience, it's the other way. But I'm comparing 302rwkw GT-SS to 270rwkw R34 N1 with EBC, but I'm comparing apple with orange here.

All I know so far is they are 4 GT2860's made into 2.

Given Garrett don't sell the wheels separate to the cartridge for that series... So it gets very expensive quite quickly.

When I find out more I'll update.

Garrett don't sell separate but you can get individual parts for Garrett turbos elsewhere.

SimonR32 would be interested to see your old T04Z graph I know it is a twins thread but just for comparisons sake as you had it pretty sussed out. Or maybe the thread should stay on topic a bit longer :)

Similar to the 517z's up to about 120 then ramps hard and monsters everything... But yes stick to low mounts for now :)

I discounted this because it had the better motor, but still same turbos :)

Really the major difference between the 2 is the amount of boost they are running.

Either way - they were both good track set-ups thats for sure. For everything else I'd prefer Ash's one.

Apologies for the MAJOR thread revival, but I don't think anything else has been mentioned about these Racepace Hybrid turbos on this forum according to what my search results are showing.

Was the EBC eventually installed to see if there was any difference? (especially after the boost curve of this setup crosses over with the -7 setup, if it were able to at least maintain 19psi like the -7, that would be interesting to see)

Was there any further development into this setup?

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.

      Looking for someone with a R34 front bar

      Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
