Hmmmm maybe I should get something similar for oil cooler setup....

They are ok, if you don't mind waiting 45 minutes for your oil to drain. I removed mine, you can have it if I can find it still.

Sweet! But is there a spool difference between 52 and 56? (Like that's even a legitiment concern on a V8 LOL)

Only 6psi?! I was hoping to run about 15psi on E85 LOL

two TD06 turbo's made 500kw on e85 in Cat's car, at only 6-8 psi I think (gate pressure.) These are larger.

Awwww YEEAAAHHHHH!!! I'm confident now my goal is relaistic, but even more confident my transmission will blow up. Meh

I'll take it for Leesh's car if it's the same thread

Don't need much boost dat dere v8s

Sif sell the blower! although I do understand that you want that 'lol here comes the power' moment back. instead of having power everywhere which gets 'boring?' sometimes.

Edited by UNR33L

Should've advertised the blower here... I probably would've bought it

I kinda did in my build thread LOL I mentioned it cos I was still thinking about it at that stage and then after thought "f**k it, I'm going turbs now"

but yes... pls run 15psi on e85

PLS

!

Don't push me, I'll do it!

Yep, that's exactly it! Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the instant N/A like torque curve of the blower but nowehere near as much as I enjoyed the winding up before the massive spike in torque that a turbo delivers.

And becaue of that, I got bored of the charger and thought it was too slow lol

HG > Garrett

He uses Garrett cores in his BBs anyway, so it's really no contest if he's finding a way to improve on their designs with his own housings

Excellent turbos and I would buy 8 of them if I had 5k to spare

Why don't you supercharger guys just use 1/8th throttle and roll it on progressively faster if you miss the turbocharger feel

Not the same feeling knowing dat power at your feet :(

I used to laugh taking off in first on my GTR without launching you put your foot 100% down, get NOTHING until like 30km/h lol

Cos it would still only feel like a small frame turbo at full boost i.e no kick in the dick we all love from a decent sized snail

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
