If you share that 3.5" exhaust between the 2 GTX63s it is only 1.75" diameter exhaust for each 440hp turbo!

That's a huge ask from 1.75"

That Z32 shows its doable just open up the inlet and exhaust more and if it doesn't work then I'll right them off.

But for now there my 600 wheel horsepower turbo of choice

Front housing machining has been done on my GTX2860's, picked them up from MTQ this morning.

I'm about to do a multi week roadtrip down to Victoria, so they won't be going in for a little while. I'm hoping maybe January. I need to sort out a few things first, like fuel system and exhaust.No point putting them in if something else is holding them back.

Gorgeous wheels pete, how much power are you aiming for?

E85?

Just spin them as hard as you can too..

I've been held up by my machinist he hasn't given me my head back yet so I'm able to delay my turbo choice.

As above, they're -5 housings so .64 ar I believe.

And yes, e85 of course!

Power wise, that's to be determined by my work outlook. Worst case I suppose would be standard engine with arp headstuds. Id still throw a heap of boost in but may be limited

Nothing wrong with the standard bottom end, as you said just wack a set of ARP2000 studs and also maybe some drop in cams and away you go!

One for you pete, GTX2860's custom high mounts on a std 2.6L pulled 373 rwkw on only 17psi using stock ported comp covers and says .73 turbine housings??

Definitely different

Does any body know if a -9 rear housing will work with the gtx cartridge? Wheels are the same diameter just a different trim, 76 vs 62. As i have -9's now was wondering if i just got the machining done and swaped out the cartridges.

edit: Looks like the -9 rear exducer is 34mm while the -5 is 41mm so I'm guessing no, only other question is will a gtx2860 front compressor fit on a 2859r cartridge?

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
