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.

    • Hi everyone, I've been wrestling with this for a while now and have been trying to find out the cause. For context, the turbos used are Garrett 2860 -5s, the BOV is a BNR32 HKS SSQV IV kit, the car is currently tuned to ~470 whp on 17.5 psi. The car drives normally, pulls well when it doesn't happen, and I can replicate it fairly easily. It does not sound like turbo shuffle or flutter. The engine has only a thousand or so miles and has had this behavior since it was completed. After my engine was built for my R32 GTR, I noticed that the car now sometimes makes an air discharge sound on what appears to be positive boost pressure that sounds really similar to a BOV. I had thought that it was a BOV issue but even when replacing it with a brand new unit, the sound persisted. It seems like it's coming from the passenger side but I may be mistaken. The closest scenario I could find was this post here https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/ started by @yakshii and it sounds very similar. As in, at partial throttle once I reach positive boost I begin to hear the same psh psh psh psh psh sound like air is leaking somewhere when I keep the throttle in the same position. It most commonly happens in 4th gear at around 3-3.5k RPM and 5th gear around 2.5-3k RPM, which seems to coincide with normal positive boost thresholds. It might be similar to what @Austrian GTR mentioned about his own HKS SSQV. Notable difference would be that when he applies more throttle when it happens, it stops. In my scenario if I apply more throttle during this repeated psh psh psh sound, the cadence of the sound gets faster and louder rather than stopping. If I lift off slightly and apply throttle again, it will normally stop and pull without issue. I've checked all rubber couplers to ensure that they are tight, but have not gotten the opportunity to properly do a pressurized boost leak test. If anyone has had similar experiences or thoughts on what might be the cause, I'd be very keen to hear them. I also have a video of it happening from inside the cabin, if that would make it easier to understand: https://youtu.be/2zqZXcx8jbA
    • I'd want at least $40K for mine, but thats easy to say cos I'm not selling anyway.
    • That's incorrect. We have 4 seasons, consisting of pre winter, winter, post winter and a small glimpse of hope! 
    • I spotted a black C34 in Mittagong this morning!
