Hey guys looking at upgrading turbo and just wondering If anyone has used a td05 setup on a rb20? Some power results with similar mods to mine would be great,

Splitfire coilpacks

550cc injectors

Z32 afm

Bosch 040

Nisstune

Cheers in advance - Trent

Which TD05? I have often wondered what a TD05-18G on a 6boost manifold with external gate wold do on an RB20. I am expecting you woudl get 240-250rwkws with response about the same as a 2530. I keep my out for one as it will be a bolt on to my current TD06-20G setup...would be interesting to trade 30rwkws for response...the question is what sort of response would i gain.

So, cant help with actual results but I think it would be a pretty good setup if you can justify the expense of the $1200 manifold and $500 gate on top of turbo price

Yeah I was thinking 18 or 20 g, which is about $700-800 delivered, which I think are internally gated anyway? The cost all up I think I could justify for good reponse and 250rwkw, might have to look more into it I think

Search for Kando Dynamics on EBAY, thats where you get the said item for $800ish.

As for a TD05, take an evo into consideration. 2L 4pot that can do up to 240awkw on a TD05 16G with boost coming on before 3000 and revving to an easy 8000.

If I was doing an RB20 and could afford a custom manifold, I would grab an actual stock evo twin scroll turbo, from an evo 5,6 or 9 (they have a 10.5cm housing) and would get it fitted up. If it ended up not enough power you can have GTPumps fit it with 18 or 20g compressors OR you could sell the item and get a Kando Dynamic bolt on replacement.

I anticipate you could take care of the whole job for under $3k.

By the way I found a new td05 kit to suit a sr20det as a direct replacement for a t28. My question (may be a stupid question but a question non the less) is would this be a direct swap on a rb20?

Had a td05 20g on my 20det with all the supporting mods,full boost I think from memory was 3800 - 4000ish rpm and pulled farking hard to redline. Don't have dyno sheets but was safe tuned around 18 - 19psi, 320hp and around 700nm of torque.. They are a good lil turbos but the td06 20g is much better if you can wait that extra few more hundred rpm..Lag isn't all as bad as some people make it out to be....

    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 馃槈. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 馃槏.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 馃檹 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 馃槈. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 馃槏 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
