GTR's run with twin T28 Garrett turbos.

So you can say they are 'Skyline turbo(s)'.

It's tuning house, Garage D's R32 GTR from UK.

Wish it was mine.

Mine looks similar but with white wheels and no spoiler.

Here are the R32 and R33 GTR Turbine Specs if that helps:

Compressor Housing: T3

Compressor Wheel: T3

Compressor Wheel (mm) 42.5 - 60.1

Compressor Trim: 50T

Compressor A/R: 0.42

Turbine Housing: T25

Turbine Wheel: T25

Turbine Wheel (mm): 41.5 - 50.5

Turbine Trim: 62T

Turbine A/R: 0.48

unless it is only around 2.6L then the rb26 turbos will be WAY too small for a v12, unless you plan using 4 of them. you need to find turbos suited to the engine size you have. 2 rb25 turbos may possibly suit, but it depends on how high the engine revs.

Two GT30 sized turbines at the least! Smaller than that and you'll get restrict the exhaust too much, then EGTs will be high too. You'll have to retard the ignition and so won't make much power especially at high rpms.

Twin gtx3071s *drool*

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
