Hey how's it going I'm building my gtr for a everyday driver/weekend track car mods so far are ...

Wiseco 87.5 forgies

Manley rods

Hardened and full balanced crank

Nitto pump

Ross harmonic

Exedy twin plate

Head work ...

Supertech 1mm valves both sides

Supertech guides

Supertech double springs

Tomei lifters

Now I'm in need of advice on personal experience with a strong street/track/drag 32 gtr with lift and duration of cams as I'm chasing 600+ hp with as much torque and best drivability I can get with a gt42r turbo any insight would be great thanks in advance

260 x 10.8 i think would be your best bet, they will have the air flow requiered to turn that turbo and enough over lap to give "midrange torque", what rear housing are you using, i have a mate with one of them on a 2JZ with a .86 and it doesn't see boost till 4500rpm on a 3ltr, on 15psi it makes 430rwhp (run in set up )

^ Indeed not going to be responsive for circuit with a GT42 in a 2.6ltr.

Be fine for drags though.

Sorta can't really have both with a turbo that large so might as well bite the bullet and just set it up for drags specifically and put bigger cams etc as you realistically can't set it up for both and then as a result there is dual compromise rather than one.

Thanks a million for the insight sorry on the delay in response lost passwords....

I have seen the light on the setup as i have a 400hp r33 as well with a gt35r and thats laggy enough for my liking but fun when on boost

I have been reading through the forums and the stock cams seem to be pretty popular ? Im going to turbo down with a to4z .96 rear bb garret or go back to twin n1 garrets ...

Thanks in advance

    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
