how did I know that video was what was in the link.

old tech twins vs new tech billet single

should have used a GT3582 from an XR6 turbo. that would have been a better comparison since the compressor wheels are all of similar design and the only variable would have been twin vs single.

What if he had used newer gtx2863 vs older gt3582 single?

I posted this in the comments of the video but I'm still awaiting a reply

It doesn't matter if it's new or old tech, my old T4 divided T04Z set up shat all over low mounts and people think they were designed the same age as a dinosaur!

put your graph up then. tell me what twins you shat on. Edited by mr skidz

I don't care if twins or singles or semantics of the debate as there are loads of variables.... But one very good point is I would love to see the singles performance with the gate plumbed back so it's at least attempting to be a street able road car.

My experience, albeit at ~300rwkws and 80mm exhaust is it makes a huge difference to power, response and ignition the tune can take when switching external gate to plumb back...as an observation the quality of the front pipes seem to have a decent impact on twins too.

That said...if there was a reasonable process to getting a single thru roadworthy i would stick with a single every time....just for convenience and simplicity when banging around on track

The graph and others have been posted on this forum for the last 10 or so years. Dash 5s are the easiest to compare the 7s and 9s are slightly more responsive but made 200HP less

Fairly sure Matt over here runs a RB30 with EFR8374 internal gate and it has no issues with power or response. Mind you E85 changes the game a little Edited by SimonR32

put your T04Z graph up the one that apparently shits on low mounts.

only interested in your claims atm.

so tell me bout this setup of yours..

looks laggy as shit, looks like a hill climb event. nothing until 120 130kph

so let's be honest they shat on nothing that's not your car or turbo & it was probably stroked.

let's leave this thread for its intended purpose which was GTX related

210hp and 15psi at 4000rpm on BP98 is laggy? Please... no RB26 makes good power before 4000rpm and people like to post graphs that start at 4000rpm to make them look fatter

That's also 4th gear, if I short changed from 3rd to 4th at 6200rpm it would still be making 420rwhp which is more than the max power -7/-9 would make on the same fuel.

Not my car? Really? Stroked? Really? Here is my sale thread for when I sold it, also you might notice the "Genuine R33 GTR Crank"

FFS this is a thread about GTX twins. Not some dinosaur T04Z.

Wow, steep curve. Not a single f**king torque curve to be seen. Probably don't even know what "area under the curve" means. It means a usable powerband. Not some dyno queen looking graph.

GTFO, I'm sick of reading this shit. I want to know about GTX twins. I like my engine bay to look stock. And it still does.



To the others - When $$$ permits, I'm considering GTX2860s in stock compressor covers and 0.63 rears. I want something more responsive than my -5s. I'm getting 23psi at 4800rpm in 3rd and I want it to be at least 600rpm earlier. I would prefer 20psi by 4,000rpm. Would bring the torque up earlier and hold it with the GTX compressors better efficiency at higher boost levels.

(I use the car for the type of track that has corners..)

The second graph has a nice fat torque curve for you to see. The car makes the same power down low (if not more than low mounts), it just looks "dyno queen" because it makes so much more top end.

You want some GTX twin results, here is a GTX2863 result on a 2.8L

10518305_815854931771310_549531332373346

and here is it getting matched down low and then losing up top to a stock bottom end 2.6L

As for the track that has corners? You mean where single turbo set ups dominate? I'd love to see some videos of you at the track :)

I'm shit at the track.

But looking at that - it goes from nothing to 700nm within 1000rpm, and then it falls away 2,500rpm later. It has a 2,500rpm usable powerband? How is that useful? And having power go from nothing to everything within 1000rpm is definitely useless.

How about a powerband that is 4,000rpm to 5,000rpm wide? More logical one would think....

You also seem like one of those people that thinks that if you have a high power number, you're an awesome driver? Nope.

That dyno is the shittest I have ever seen for track use.

Single vs twin... who gives a f**k, as long as there is a usable powerband.

    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?

    • i will be there 😁
    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
