Mate now your coming across like a real tool, seriously. At first you stated you were going to 'push' these bad boys to high 300's. Totally wrong turbo for that. Then then said 'fine 500 it is'. That there is two totally different engines, setups, purposes and budgets. You have been asked three if not four times what the A) use for the car is, B) redline, C) what sort of curve you want, D) if you want low mount or highmount. You have said you bought the low mount 2835's because of defect's, which is great. Alot of us are in the same boat espeically those Mexicans in Vic.

You have also said that the engine was built to take 'about 400rwkw'. If thats the case why are so keen on using two different setups which will go 500 +. Its like buying a 600 HP Kenworth prime mover when only needing to tow a box trailer!

Most of the guys offering opinion's in this thread have built GTR's in their garages right now, get driven and have take a particular route BECAUSE IT WORKS! I, myself am going from RS's to -5's on a stroker motor becasue its a laggy POS. I couldn't imagine one size bigger turbo's on a engine thats 200 LESS CC

James.

There are guys who have posted in this thread, with builds that are WAY more intensive then what you say you have.

And your taking the advice over Facebook slappers and a kid that can't even drive ?

Are you actually coming here for advice and help because so far all you have done is piss on everyones helpful suggestions while changing your mind about what you actually want from post to post.

there is a dude who was a mechanic for a big GT-R workshop and I'm pretty sure we all know the one he's talking about who has advised you, why don't you take this on board if the word of a mechanic is your gospel....

Let me put it this way:

No one is giving you arrogant replies, it simply that we are not telling you what you want to hear, by all means go ahead, spend the money and be happy with what you've built but from what you have said, it won't be what you end up with.

Everything everyone has said has been to help you, and previous to this page that's what happened.

You went from worrying about being defected to wanting a car that stalls at idle, using insane amounts of fuel and is laggy, where is the segue ?

A car like that will drive like an absolute piece of shit, do you have the money for the drive-train modifications required also ?

It will not run a good time at the track, it will not run a good time at the circuit, it will not drift well, it will not even be fast on the streets, seriously you will be destroyed by 90% of stuff on the road at the lights unless you pony up huge money to get this setup working properly, which your not.

I also doubt your bottom end is engineered to take the consistent 9000RPM + required to make this sort of power from a 2.6 Litre engine, given that you required only 400kw atw from the builder.

The main problem here is your attitude towards advice is pretty stupid, people are just trying to help you, all you have to do is smile and nod and take what someone has said under advisement.

You don't have to DO anything you don't want to, but don't get all angsty when someone bursts your bubble with the cold steel of reality..

''Iv worked here'' or ''iv built one before'' or my best friends ex wifes 96th cousin who works for Nissan'' over it and everyone's piece of input.. jusp cause you have been there and see it or experienced is doesn't give you the excuse to be total arrogant fu ck wits about things. There are some of use who put possibly everything into owning and modifying one...

Have you ever thought that given i worked for a workshop that i may know more than one way to build an RB26?

Customers come in all the time with different goals and it was our job to build them a car that suited your needs. Some wanted response, some wanted outright power, some wanted drag strip times, others wanted track reliablity etc etc etc

Its already been said but you have asked for advice and basically spat in all our faces. We arent the arrogant ones, you are becvause your not getting the answer you want, and that answer is that twin 2835's are going to be responsive, give the most linear power curve and be happy to make 500rwkw on an engine built for 400rwkw. Which coincidentally you dont even know how it was built. I dont know many car enthusiasts that cant rattle off their exact engine specs 5 or more years after they have built their engine.

If you want to hear that 2835's are going to be wicked your on the wrong forum. www.nissansilvia.com is where you need to join up to if you want to hear those resposnses :D

Why hasn't a mod closed this thread yet? This is wasting everyone's time. Good luck with the build champ. Hope the car is "scary" when it's done.

My place of employment saw fit to make me do work for the past 3 hours.

Here now though :geek:

Oh and i think we need a Mexican emoticon to add to the bunch, ill go look for one :D

    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
    • By "reverse flow", do you mean "return flow"? Being the IC having a return pipe back behind the bumper reo, or similar? If so... I am currently making ~250 rwkW on a Neo at ~17-18 psi. With a return flow. There's nothing to indicate that it is costing me a lot of power at this level, and I would be surprised if I could not push it harder. True, I have not measured pressure drop across it or IAT changes, but the car does not seem upset about it in any way. I won't be bothering to look into it unless it starts giving trouble or doesn't respond to boost increases when I next put it on the dyno. FWIW, it was tuned with the boost controller off, so achieving ~15-16 psi on the wastegate spring alone, and it is noticeably quicker with the boost controller on and yielding a couple of extra pounds. Hence why I think it is doing OK. So, no, I would not arbitrarily say that return flows are restrictive. Yes, they are certainly restrictive if you're aiming for higher power levels. But I also think that the happy place for a street car is <300 rwkW anyway, so I'm not going to be aiming for power levels that would require me to change the inlet pipework. My car looks very stock, even though everything is different. The turbo and inlet pipes all look stock and run in the stock locations, The airbox looks stock (apart from the inlet being opened up). The turbo looks stock, because it's in the stock location, is the stock housings and can't really be seen anyway. It makes enough power to be good to drive, but won't raise eyebrows if I ever f**k up enough for the cops to lift the bonnet.
    • There is a guy who said he can weld me piping without having to cut chassis, maybe I do that ? Or do I just go reverse flow but isn’t reverse flow very limited once again?
