i have a thread in the rb30 section - made 405awkw @ 23psi (pump) with garrett -10s (low mount setup).

if you want more info on what i did, here u go:

i wanted the stealth look (no hassles from the law) & at the time, i had all the supporting mods for the low mount system, whereas going single i'd need to spend more on a exhaust manifold, custom dump pipe, oil & water lines etc

Totally get where your coming from and thats the entire reason why Im sticking with the twins on my 34. Nothing screams "defect me" more than a top mount turbo when the 5-0 pop your bonnet up :whistling:

In saying that im getting more and more inclined by the day to part with the 34 and build a killer R32 - t51r with a stroked rb30 bottom end and probably still have coin left over.. Just financially I know Il be alot worse off when i decide to part my ways from it.. decisions decisions lol

Hey Nick,

Sorry for the late reply. I was just wondering if you had any pics on the clutch mod. I'm getting to the pointy end of the build (its slow when you only do 1 day a fortnight), and about to remove the clutch booster. Any help would be appreciated. You don't ever get to Newcastle do you? :-)

Also, I own the Global Auto MPIII one that you see on Youtube.

BTW, did you have any issues with the bonnet closing? It appears the my carbon fibre bonnet now fouls on the turbo and the front of the engine :-(

Car sounds absolutely mental i can imagine it being a blast to drive! Contemplating selling all assets and dumping an extra 60k in mine to make a mental rb26/34 :ph34r:

(not srs but we can all dream lol..)

You can have my car for 60k, all the hard work done with a 26/30.

Tim is working out what to do with the car next, gearbox upgrade, fuel system, Ecu, but for now just going to drive it until feels slow again and the start chasing power

Hope to see him at Powercruise with a Holinger, E85 fuel system, running a Vipec !

The clutch master has to come out to be replaced so when its out ill snap some photos . when you pull the master and booster out it will become clear what we have done.

Nah i havent been in Newcastle for good 7 years so wont be down that way anytime soon.

Bonnet closed fine without cam belt cover on. it would hit on the front if it was on. The engine rubs on the undermatt of bonnet but barely. We spaced the strut brace up a few mm and still have fingers gap in there. maybe your carbon bonnet is a bit fatter in some places compared to stock.

Hope to see him at Powercruise with a Holinger, E85 fuel system, running a Vipec !

Nah not going anything that crazy. Rebulid the box with stronger input shaft and gears, E85 isnt something even considered. looking at going down the TOL route for a break in the current trends of E85 everything.

Spot on with the ecu change though. Vipec is a choice on the list, the old d-jetro FC is getting a bit dated nowdays.

STILL WAITING ON TIM TO CALL MARK BACK UP TO GET A DYNO SHEET FROM HIM SO CAN POST UP THE POWER FIGURES

POWER FIGURES AND GRAPH BELOW!!!!

After such a long wait and muck around (no fault of Mark at Godzilla), we have managed to get a copy of the dyno sheet.

The engine responded very well to tuning with early stages showing results of 351hp on just 8psi backing off at 6700rpm. Then later 510hp on 15psi at peak revs of 8500rpm.

Slowly easing in the boost to make sure all was good with tune, engine etc, next step was 17psi which it made 556hp. It was making power very easily just wanted more and more boost.

It was getting close to unsafe injector duty figures so upped the fuel pressure 6 or so psi to give some more room to play.

Mark asked if wanted to keep going, We set a figure for IDC(injector duty cycle) of 92% max and worked to that. On just a mere 20psi the car rolled up 592.5hp at all 4 wheels!!!!

We were both amazed at the power level on small (for a T51r) boost levels, were expecting to run more towards 23-24psi to make that power.

The plan was to keep pushing boost until fuel ran out, definetly werent expecting to run out at 20psi :(.

As most would know a turbo the size of a T51r is barely working at 20psi and needs 25-30psi to get it really singing in its range.

Keep in mind this is all on BP98 pump fuel so cant be happier with current stage of the car.

Bigger set of injectors and more boost will be interesting to see what it does. Wont be doing that for sometime though

WOW, that is a strong result 450awkw on a mere 20psi.

Compare that to my old engine with low mounts, you have made almost 50kw more with 4psi less boost.

With sorted fuel supply, what did Mark say is the potential?

Congrats, oh u might get some people with twins argue your torque curve lol but I know what I'd prefer on a dirty 30 hehe :)

Mark didnt give any estimates, given that it was making more power then expected its anyones guess.

its not too bad down low as the compression and 3 0 make enough torque to move it along.

Hi guys need a little help looking at building a rb30/26 into a r33 gtr looking for a good engine builder in nsw who has good experience in building a rb30/26 and installing the engine. what am i looking at price wise to build one roughly.

how is the car going nick very very nice build and car.

E85 and that turbo with good supporting mods would make a very fun car thats for sure.

It ended up being 9.1:1 compression. Thats about as low as could get it as orginally it was a 10:1 methanol setup.

Uses argo I beam rods.

We set rev limit based on nitto pump ATI balancer, balanced rotating assembly being able to handle more but keeping it safe. As you can see by graph the head setup keeps wanting more revs as its making power right to limiter

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
