Better start searching mate. Go to the rb25 dyno thread,

And send your gf back to the kitchen. This would never have happened if she didn't leave the kitchen.

:rofl2:

If it was my car i know i wouldnt be fitting it up, it will be laggy but thats the least of your problems... Getting piping etc made to suit, re-tuned and all that stuff just to SEE if the chinese POS works? I would Ebay it and let some other goose give it a go... BUT thats just me :wave:

No such thing if you want to do it properly. Even less likely for an R34GTT... If you want to do a cost effective turbo upgrade then i would suggest the HG turbos... Any way you go with a turbo upgrade is going to cost decent money!

You should be fine, go have a read of the HG thread along with a squizz at the RB25 dyno section etc....

My car was running 200kw when i got it with high flow turbo, Power FC, Standard AFM, Standard Injectors etc.... I upgraded the injectors to 550cc and ran 250kw still running the standard AFM (However i would suggest you upgrade it if you are going for a retune anyway), make sure your fuel pump is up to the task and ideally have exhaust, cooler and some form of boost control.... There are many ways around making power but simple ways are very effective!

I'd keep it subtle but responsive for a street tune.

Upgrade to a R34 GTR N1 turbo (Ball Bearing Steel Internals).

Which is equivalent to a Garrett -7 or more so very similar.

For a bit more top end go for a Garrett -9.

GTT dude... Not GTR?

haha thought so!

Best off keeping it simple..... My original highflow was all factory bolt up, so for stealth and cost reasons he should aim for somthing like that.... Other GTT's out there making good power with them, mine didnt as the tuner was a retard.... Since then i got bored and continued on to a high mount, but the cost outweighs the cost of the car so when you see a post "Not very expensive"you generally steer away from MOST aftermarket setups :P

    • Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.

    • I've also been eyeing their rear axles for my car. I purchased seat mounts from them about 7 years ago and they were hot garbage so I've been a little wary about purchasing them. With that being said, please buy them and get back to us haha. 
    • Can a moderator please move this into the right category.. I've accidently put this into racing build thread 🤦🏽‍♂️
