Hi Guys,

just wanted to know what is teh difference on the turbos for GTR33??

I was looking at this one below from ebay; http://cgi.ebay.com.au/R33-GTR-Turbos-N1-Steel-Turbine-RB26-R32-R34-changeover-/120487485104?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1c0d9d1eb0

R33 GTR Turbos N1 Steel Turbine RB26 R32 R34

and comparing to the -5 or -7

my aim is to get about 300kW on standard engine, power FC, adj cams and bleed valve....atm it is doing 265kW

help me guys, im confused....reason i want to go with the "R33 GTR Turbos N1 Steel Turbine RB26 R32 R34" is because they are cheap.....

Mind you to get a set of -9 with actuators you would be looking at $2700 being more than double the $1250.

Sure they might be a bit laggier than stock but I would think they could put down around 280-300rwkw without too much hassle.

I dunno I am curious too hear about these. I have a set of -9's waiting to go in but I was seriously considering these initially.

When could you expect 1 bar boost with these? around 4500-5000 rpm?

Basically -5 response (4500rpm before anything really happens)

With -7 power

Pretty poor IMO when the -7s are on almost 1000rpm sooner

1000rpm less response with 60-80rwkw less… The extra 1500 is worth it. Best value for money modification.

It’s also power delivery in/out of gears as well. Not what it makes on a loaded up dyno run.

Hey Ash, you always seem to know the g-o with forced air induction. I'm currently getting my 31 worked on at Chasers. It's a stock RB30ET using stock intake manifold, getting a new GT-3586, 45mm ext. wastegate, 3" exhaust, running a gtr cooler (not sure exact dimensions but big). I know i'm going to be making good power but what sort of spool time / response / lag do you think I will be looking at?

Cheers,

James

have a look at calaisturbo.com dude, that's pretty much the standard combo over there ;)

been 8years since I've really looked at 30et results.

stock exhaust manifold and cams will be your issues though with that turbo/motor combo. you need a bit of cam to get the ole SOHC working with a 35

Ook, cool, cheers. I didn't pick the turbo as I have no idea.....also getting ecu and fuel upgrades atm......plans to DET in future with 30 bottom end.

Not even sure of the turbo I blew up (bent shaft), people told me it looked like a factory 33gtr. Used to be spooled up @ 2000rpm in 2nd, 2800 in 4th, and pulled quite hard at 14lbs to redline, where possible, within limits of course. So quite punchy, and nice to drive. I'm worried it's gonna lag like a pig atm, but Chasers think that it'll be fine once tuned.

Thanks for your input.

Power vs lag = it'll be laggy with that turbo. No two ways around it regardless of what people tell you.

You can't bolt on a 700hp turbo and expect response :)

If you had some head work, cam, exhaust manifold and a 3.5-4" exhaust you'd make 350-370rwkw and this would obviously offset the lag in that respect. However my stab in the dark will be 300rwkw depending on how much boost can be wound in. Which is what a 3076 would have done :)

See how it goes either way.

Sweet, will do. If all goes to plan, you should see it next Sunday, providing its all together by then. The Haltech Sports 2000 is in and wired up, just stuffing around with cooler, exhaust & dump pipe, then tune. Worried that clutch won't hold up for dyno tune, if so my car wont be there.

Hey mate, did you used to hang around reservoir in the last couple of years. I have seen another orange 33 looks identical from what I remember. Haven't seen the car in over 18months. Not sure what the plates were, but basically, used to 'CR33M' every time I seen it. Coincidence? (havent seen any other orange 33's)

Wasn't me mate. There is some guy up there that has a similar looking car to me. But think he has a top secret kit, no carbon lip spoiler and had a orange bonnet.

    • I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly
    • I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.
    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
