Hey I have a r32 gts4 it has a high mount set up ATM with just a t04 (eBay special) with external waste gate and it is just hopeless was on there when I got it it's way to lagg I want to change it to something more smooth in power but not sure what to go a lot of people are telling me r33 r34 turbo but how would I go about it with my high mount set up will I have to go back to stock manifold what would I have to change?

You'd need to change everything - manifold, dump, lines, turbo, intake piping etc.

You'd be better off with a R34 turbo, make 200rwkw, would be a good thing.

Sell off the manifold/turbo/dump and you'd probably almost workout even, if not infront

Really ok :) what about waste gate will that all have to be changed and what about a r34 neo stock turbo are they better then the normal r34 ones? Bit of a noob sorry haha

Oh k interesting mine was about half the price of that it was on there when I got it but stuffed up not long after and didn't have the money at the time for a good one so just got the same one again I'm not really going for huge power I would just love it to be smooth and have a fare bit of poke ;) atm it is great on boost strong as but down low ain't got nothing!!

Sam, please confirm the following details and we will be able to help you pick a suitable replacement (keep the highmount setup IMO, why not).

- What flange is your current turbo? T3 open, T4 open, T4 twin scroll?

- Is it external gate? If so is the gate working properly? IE holding boost properly ETC.

- What motor is this bolted to and do you have the rest of the supporting mods? IE tuned/tunable ecu, bigger injectors, fmic/tbe etc.

Give us this info and we will be able to help you pick a better turbo (rather than referring you back to a stock item only to need to upgrade again later when your bored). No offense to any posters with this comment either.

Thanks,

Ok mate well I'm sure its a t03 5 bolt flange it is external gated and the gate works fine I

Have big blitz front mount not to sure on actual size k and n pob standard ecu I believe but I have a emanage ecu that come with the car but haven't used it yet full 3" exhaust hope this helps

Thanks for your help :)

My best recomendation is to work out exactly what is done to that car, if it is tuned and how it is running ETC.

If its definitely a T3 flange turbo we will be able to recommend a great alternative which will make the car get up and boogie, BUT we really wouldnt want to give that advice unless the car is properly set up for that sort of thing.

If its literally running the stock ECU at the moment then your not in for a good time whether you change the setup or not. You will either need to go and do all the required upgrades to proceed or return it to a stock turbo like Ash said.

Please properly look into what the car is running and get back to us.

Alright I believe the motor is mostly stock besides spitfire coils ache 550cc injectors and a bigger fule pump I'm not to sure on the exact type of fule pump and injectors but will try and find out I gotta try find out some more info on the ecu I'll get some numbers and what not for you as I dont know to much about them.. What are your thoughts on the G readdy E manage I got with the car they any good ??

Thanks

Greddy emanage blue ? there a piggy back ecu, u can control timing and fuel with them, not as good as a stand alone tho. As for ur turbo id swap it out with a kando like mentioned above. I wouldnt go any bigger than a TD05. I recently sold a kando TD05 to another sau member who since put it on an RB25, hes told me it starts spooling at 3k. so on a RB20 it could be a tiny bit later.

Oh k yeah I was thinking about gettin a wolf computer for it the guy I got it off said that you gotta plug the computer in once the cars hot coz it is hard to start when cold but I've never bothed with it

It doesn't sound like the current setup is any good mate.

Do lots and lots of reading if you can, the answers are all here. It sounds like you might need to start from scratch in some aspects, or at least get a real ECU for it. A nistune is probably your cheapest option in terms of being effective.

I recommend you see a decent tuner and ask them what they see in the car, they will know whats going on and will be able to make some suggestions regarding where to go from here. Just ask for their advice first and see what they can offer.

If your in NSW I recommend you go see DVS JEZ, he will work out whats in the car and send you on the right path. Can do your tuning and supply/fit/tune a Nistune for a great price.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
