Hey Sedat you probably are already aware of this not sure if it's stated in the info that comes with the pump but the Nitto pumps runs dual springs and you need to remove one otherwise your oil pressu

Firstly, how the hell do you balance a block.......no such thing! Secondly, I would seriously take "Barricade's" advice and maybe refresh yourself with the rules of this forum. This is a build threa

What i want to know is if there is a big power difference inbetween the two plenums ?

From what I can understand is that for big power RB26 applications single throttle plenums are the way to go when you're running a single turbocharger setup, whilst six throttle plenums are more useful for retaining low mount / oem turbo chargers.

Hope that helps.

first ive heard of that...

people are making 900hp plus with the standard plenum and throttles! the thing with the 6 throttles is that it causes a slight disruption with air flow (turblulence) and can be hard to tune, however there are plenty of people that can tune them and do time and time again

Look mate, I acknowledge that standard RB26 plenum can be used in high horsepower RB26's. HOWEVER, Standard throttle bodies on big powered RB26 can cause difficulty when tuning the car (as you have mentioned) and research has found that single throttle setup ups for big power applications (500+kw) are better for flow and tuning.

Just have a look at all the big powered RB26's (500+kw) and you will see they do not use standard six TB's.

Also, I do not see many low mount set-ups running single throttle plenums, why?... because there is F all performance gained from that upgrade at that power level.

no need to get up on your high horse about it! clearly you are a little sensitive on the issue but im not going to get in an E fight with you when clearly you cant except either

There has been a massive delay with my build. The workshop who is doing my build is moving from Campbellfield to Sunshine, once they are settled in my build is going to commence. In the mean while i have picked up a Nitto oil pump.

Parts that i have so far:

HKS Cam Gears

HKS Fuel Rail

HKS T51R SPL with T62R front wheel

HKS Manfiold

HKS 60mm Wastegate

Nitto 2.8 Stroker

Nitto Oil Pump

N1 Block


Mildy ported RB26 heads with bronze valve guides ready to be sent off for a massive overhaul + CnC porting.

Because i had to wait so long for my stroker to come i took my mechanics daily for a little "test" drive. Least to say i was very impressed with the cars stock performance.

For a whizzer as big as you are planning to run, go the 90mm single throttle body plenum. It will be easier to tune. Any advantage of ITB's will be negated by such a large turbo and the delivery it will provide.

I don't buy into the 'single TB for big power, ITB's for small power' internet theory. It's been disproved in the real world time and time again. Single TB's are simpler to tune with.... and big power with an rb26 means big lag. The main advantages of ITB's are in the lower end or transient throttle- both of these areas are 'dulled' down with a large turbo.

Personally I chose to stick with ITB's, greddy plenum and twin trust td06 l2's on my rb28. I believe I achieve better throttle response, better transient response, higher intake air speed, more even air volume between cylinders and a better sound.

Cheers

+1 on the better sound!

      Oof, I will forevermore have those shredded gears in mind whenever someone talks about showing mechanical sympathy towards their car. Thanks for the photos, fascinating stuff!

      The holdups last year were drivetrain related. I had the car out right after getting the bearing issue resolved. Third launch and the car didn't move after releasing the clutch. It had sheared all the engagement teeth off the 1st gear.    Thankfully no other damage was done. I set an aftermarket gear beside an OEM gear and found that the engagement teeth on the OEM gear were much larger and better supported. Looking through my bin of spare transmission gears I found that there are two types of tooth on the OEM first gears - the larger tooth and the smaller tooth. It looks like most aftermarket gearset manufacturers base their design on the smaller tooth. OEM large tooth left - Speedtek, OS Giken, etc or OEM small tooth right Decided to give that larger engagement tooth a try. Pressed the ring off an OEM gear and sent it to a transmission manufacturer here in the States. They did their "faceplating" operation with my synchro ring on the Speedtek gear.   I reassembled it, took it back to the track and promptly destroyed the gear itself.  I'll rebuild this and use it as a spare - thankfully just first gear and the countershaft are damaged beyond repair. Definitely disheartening but my welded on engagement tooth ring held up!  Moved to Speedtek's dog engagement design as the gears appear to be much stronger. So far they have taken much more abuse at the track. Also scored a Stillway lockout from the Netherands for super cheap. It's for some other RB transmission so it took a bit of fabrication to fit but honestly a very easy job. I also had to heavily modify the gates as they were very different.   Then for some reason at the last test and tune a silicon coupler below the throttle blew off and took out the radiator and fan. Thankfully it was in the burnout box and not down track. This car is really beating me up - I still haven't made a pass in it. Ran it through the gears many times on the street but it keeps biting me at the track.  Currently in the process of replacing the radiator and remaking the throttle pipe to remove the coupler and use a cast 90 and a vband. I WILL get this thing down the track...

      Covers most of the above points really. There's a few exceptions but most just see driving as an irritating but necessary task they must complete if they want to get anywhere on time. Also see it as a good time to show their awesome multi-tasking abilities on their mobile and/or doing their makeup.

      I don't believe I posted pictures of the second oil pump pickup I added so here they are. Data shows it gets oil pressure up to the relief pressure much earlier in the RPM. Is that important? Not likely... This was just another attempt to fix the bearing issues.   I also heavily opened up the inlet to the pump since it now had to flow oil from two pickups. I believe the diameter increased about 1/8".
