Hi I've finally gotten a GTR, and now I'm wondering if my upgrades will give me a fast spool and good power. Well I'm looking for about 700 hp to the wheels.

The car came from Japan with about 12000 Km on the clock with all paper work even I was surprised to get the fax on the car from the dealers info list. The car only had one owner and he died a while back so the car sat for a very long time. Well even the engine shows signs of low milage, but even with all the paper work for the car I still don't believe them. My main reason for not be leaving them is because the car has a new model blitz boost controller greedy twin plate clutch I can hear it. Greedy FMI. Oil cooler kit with full mines exhaust, along with some HKS gauges.

Well after reading up on the GTR's I now know that the turbos are the first weak link, so I contacted Kyle at 6boost and asked him his recommendations for max power with very fast spool. He mentioned that I can go with a gtx3582r with Garretts twin scrole housing, he will build me a twin scrole manifold using twin Tial MSV waste gate. The engine is fully stock, but I'm planning on building it using the Tomie stocker kit for the bottom end, and going with a fully built head from Jun in Japan.

Now I already have the turbos waste gate, and manifold from Kyle at 6 boost. I'm only waiting on the oil return lines and some couplings to link the turbo to the intercooler piping.

What do you guys think of the setup. Will it be very fast spooling?

How will it work on a stock motor, and what would the max boost be on a stock motor now that I can boost past 1 bar. With a good tune of course.

Will the turbo be to small with the strocker kit?

I have build GTST and run 30+ psi on them and after a long time now I have learnt all of there weakness

What I have found is that the hydraulic litters fail, and the GTRs head uses solid litters, I always wondered if I was to use a NEO head how it would work, cause the NEO head is solid as well. After launching the GTR the 4wd system won me over. Launching at 8500 RPMs kills a new vet in the quarter he runs me down but can't pass me before the finish first and second gear takes it. LMAO only if I new these GTRs are so fast stock even my 30+ psi GTST can't catch it in the quarter. We don't race on a official track we use paved roads so traction is a bitch.

I can't wait to see how fast the spool is, and I'm guessing with this manifold the GTX turbo should love it.

Hands down to Kyle from 6 boost for building the best manifolds I've ever seen.

No, I dont think we have seen a setup like that. Its a big flowing turbo, usually too big for a 2.5 but it may be good with the stroker kit. What size will it be taken out to?

I assume you are sticking with 98? It should hit over 400kw I guess and hit good boost around 4K (if you don't go too big on the rear housing.)

Ok thanks for the feed back mate.

It's a Garrett GTX3582R 6Boost twin scrolle manifold with dual Tial MSV waste gates with the divid rear housings. I have some good pics of the setup but I'm still working out how to post them from my IPad.

The motor is stock right now, I also got a Tomia internal fuel pump with fuel rail.

To finish it of I got two Z32, AFM's and a fuel regulator.

The car has a Bliz boost controller that's nice. Displays a lot of info.

A power FC is standard in all my cars.

Oh and the little things HKS spark plugs.

I plan on installing some new injectors soon as possible. I'm sure at around 20 psi the stock injectors will reach there max duty cycle.

My goal is around 700hp to the wheel and for reliability I will build the motor after I feel this set up stoking it with Tomie's 2.8l stoker kit.

The hp was is not just the main thing I am looking for, response is mainly my ultimate disiure. But yet keeping a high realistic hp level should be funny to drive on the week days, with minamal lag.

Building the motor for response will untimatily yeid more than just the pumping air into it setup. ( turbo setup)

So any good ideals for the cam lift and duration alone with degree would play a key factor in gaining max respond, and for me trying the turbo setup first will kind of open my eyes to where the weak or lacking spots are in the power band. Keeping these things on mind when building the motor.

Keep it coming mate I appreciate all your help.

I will read up on the GTX posts thanks

I have ran 25 psi max out at single z32 MAF meter. On a rb25 with stock internal good tune. I did this on 22 psi for months and after a week on 25psi the 25 died but. Had all the right bolt ons the ring landings failed on 2 cylinders after that I build the motor and I'm still having fun, I just got a haltech ps2000 for the GTST and now I wil really puch it lol. Oh nag hat was with a 6 boost manifold Tial 44 mm waste gate and a Garrett GT35R I cant remember the housing size. I think it was smaller a 62 maybe.

The 26 is much stronger from being the under dog for may year, from what I understand. Lol

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
