Lol at this fool! You know absolutely nothing about me or what im capable of or who I work for. You've produced absolutely no evidence as there is no evidence its all hear say! Thats why you've done nothing but speculate results in this entire thread and why you are waiting to see other people spend their hard earnt on the turbos and see their results ya muppet! If ya so sure of yourself why not just get your turbos? When i asked you your claim to fame i got a fapstick reply? So whats your experience with cars & why should somebody believe Mr Skidmarkz over Mick_O?

Pretty sure theres quite a few guys who could vouch for my experience and knowledge in here. How many can vouch for you?

As for the graph you posted as proof that i didn't know SHIT. The owner of that car wished he just went a single a little birdy told me :)

I've never heard so much shit come from one human ever.

Your a f**king joke.

You clearly have an over inflated view of yourself.

I've countered all your shit talk comments with accuracy and all you got to say you simple f**k is ....aaahhhh...... yea your a f**k wit mate.

Please

High PSI and big tight bends in pipe work create heat, the tight pipe work will create a lot of heat.
EGT temps are crucial when you get up to this level, along with intake air temps, this all worked out alongside PSI all helps with heat and efficiency big-time :rolleyes:

Great posts Simon! :)

You pretty much confirm what ive been trying to say about the limitations of the stock position/bolt on GTR turbos when you start looking for 450kw or more on twins the choking turbines cant cope :)

Yeah choking it is definitely a term I would describe it as, I know Paul says this. I have always been against singles............until I hit 600hp ;) I would have loved to have kept it and done the development on it, it get's very interesting and challenging.

Lol you're a f**kwit mate simple! This isn't wasting space on the thread at all! People need more than just your opinion on here. Clearly yours is uneducated & now you've got nothing to argue you wanna get all "PM" on me!

Be sure to post your results and prove me wrong soon as you stop sitting on the fence and dreaming up what these "hybrid turbos" will do with all your theories!

Agreed!

Most people dont' change their 3" cooler piping out anyway Of course to flow 700hp of air out of some of the singles you don't need 30PSI which probably helps just a tiny tad....

Will be interested in seeing how the 60's go as they won't be putting out as much power.

Wonder if the piping factor contributes to the massive gains in zed world? I have full (2x, 1 for each turbo/bank) 2.5in piping and cooler in/out etc. The graph i posted the other day has custom 3in piping (x2). The perth zed also has custom piping which i think is 2.5in.

Micko is saying the "chocking turbines can't cope" and is restrictive, if that's the case it doesn't bother the z32 setup.

The heat Simons setup saw would definitely be contributed to the factory inlets on a RB.

Biggest exhaust in the world won't help with a smaller intake,

That's the reason race cars and bikes run there race class restrictor on the intake side.

Simon told me he also had a 3.5 exhaust which chokes the system at HIS power level generating unnecessary heat.

My Z32 had twin 3" straight through with big intakes.

Didn't bigmikespec say the same thing as Mick_o did about the turbine wheels, either at the start of this thread or piggaz build thread and get shut down?

It seems good, but you dont get exhaust housings when you buy a brand new one just like the rest of the GTX series. But you can re-use the standard housings from the GT range.

Plus, I still dont see how these turbochargers will be overall "better", when it is essentially a new compressor wheel that flows more with the same turbine housing and wheel. The problem with these turbochargers is the restrictive exhaust side when trying to squeeze the most out of them.

Yep.

If you wanted to run a max of 600whp on a RB28 which is a shit load for a street car, especially with 4 10" tyres AND STANDARD LOOKING ENGINE BAY!

If I were to use a GTX63 and put 27psi not 33psi like Simon did only the 27 through factory RB inlet pipes it would move more air than -5's at every point of the Rev range given the 3.5 millimetre larger compressor wheel (until such time the turbine wheel does get overwhelmed with gas it can't discharge quick enough)

which in this case won't be until 560+kw which I won't see nor do I wanna see.

Longevity and OEM looking engine bay and keeping rpms lower is my preferred engine setup.

It's not a race car it's a street car

*Hence the E85

*Higher comp

*Longer stroke

*Shorter duration exhaust cam

And sum other little tricks...

Doesn't seem a real advantage for the effort when -5s get pretty close to 600hp on e85 without all the possible negatives that people have mentioned. And the other point being that gtx tech really only outperform the GTs at higher boost levels so then again what's the point.

*Making same power on less boost = advantage

* the negatives mentioned are are basically the inlet piping which people use at 33psi and i wouldn't have be nothing to do with the turbocharger itself we can't blame the turbo for factory RB inlets tho.

It does pretty good I think considering.

I have run RSs to 28psi on a 3.0 with factory pipe work ( except ARC cooler, Z32 AFMs and modded TT pipe ) with no issue, holds boost @28psi perfectly to shut off, but power starts to fall over from around 7k through to the 8500 redline, which I have put down to the exhaust wheel/housing

but the 3.0 moves alot more gases @8k then a 2.8 which obviously moves more then a 2.6

Which brings me to my next point, what is the restriction, the T28 wheel or the 0.64 housing ?

If it is indeed the wheel then the larger housing won't do a great deal of anything to help power or response

    • I'm looking for some real world experiences/feed back from anyone who has personally ran a EFR7670 with a 1.05 exhaust housing or a .83 I'm leaning towards the .83 because its a street car used mostly for spirited driving in the canyons roads. I"m not looking for big numbers on paper. I want a responsive powerband that will be very linear to 8000 rpm. I dont mind if power remains somewhat flat but dont want power to drop off on top. The turbo I've purchased is a 1.05, although the mounting flange T3 vs T4 and internal vs external waste gates are different on both housings, I not concern about swapping parts or making fabrication mods to get what I want. Based on some of the research I've done with chat gpt, the 1.05 housing seems to be the way to go with slightly more lag and future proofing for more mods but recommends .83 for best response/street car setup. AI doesn't have the same emotions as real people driving a GTR so I think you guys will be able to give me better feed back 😀   
    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
    • This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?
    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
    • OK, onto filling. So I don't really have any pics, but will describe the process as best I can. The USDM workshop manual also covers it from TM-285 onwards. First, make sure the drain plug (17mm) is snug. Not too tight yet because it is coming off again. Note it does have a copper washer that you could replace or anneal (heat up with a blow torch) to seal nicely. Remove the fill plug, which has an inhex (I think it was 6mm but didn't check). Then, screw in the fill fitting, making sure it has a suitable o-ring (mine came without but I think it is meant to be supplied). It is important that you only screw it in hand tight. I didn't get a good pic of it, but the fill plug leads to a tube about 70mm long inside the transmission. This sets the factory level for fluid in the trans (above the join line for the pan!) and will take about 3l to fill. You then need to connect your fluid pump to the fitting via a hose, and pump in whatever amount of fluid you removed (maybe 3 litres, in my case 7 litres). If you put in more than 3l, it will spill out when you remove the fitting, so do quickly and with a drain pan underneath. Once you have pumped in the required amount of clean ATF, you start the engine and run it for 3 minutes to let the fluid circulate. Don't run it longer and if possible check the fluid temp is under 40oC (Ecutek shows Auto Trans Fluid temp now, or you could use an infrared temp gun on the bottom of the pan). The manual stresses the bit about fluid temperature because it expands when hot an might result in an underfil. So from here, the factory manual says to do the "spill and fill" again, and I did. That is, put an oil pan under the drain plug and undo it with a 17mm spanner, then watch your expensive fluid fall back out again, you should get about 3 litres.  Then, put the drain plug back in, pump 3 litres back in through the fill plug with the fitting and pump, disconnect the fill fitting and replace the fill plug, start the car and run for another 3 minutes (making sure the temp is still under 40oC). The manual then asks for a 3rd "spill and fill" just like above. I also did that and so had put 13l in by now.  This time they want you to keep the engine running and run the transmission through R and D (I hope the wheels are still off the ground!) for a while, and allow the trans temp to get to 40oC, then engine off. Finally, back under the car and undo the fill plug to let the overfill drain out; it will stop running when fluid is at the top of the levelling tube. According to the factory, that is job done! Post that, I reconnected the fill fitting and pumped in an extra 0.5l. AMS says 1.5l overfill is safe, but I started with less to see how it goes, I will add another 1.0 litres later if I'm still not happy with the hot shifts.
