hey guys i was wondering if u could tell me if this is achievable and with what extra mods?? i was thinking fmic, 3inch zorst turbo back, gtr fuel pump, fuel reg.

is there anything else i'd need or what that be capable of making it??

also when we put the turbo on it was different to another r34 turbo we had, the exhaust housing was twice as big and had some codes written on it???

any help would be great,

thanx guys.....brett

You're almost there... Need ECU and EBC, dunno if your turbo is ceramic, if so you will struggle to maintain reliability. Use only quality fuel.. 1.0bar should get you round 200rwkw.

TT

If I were doing it this is what I would do.

1. PowerFC

2. Heavy Duty Wastegate actuator for 14-15psi

3. Bleeder to give us that extra 1 or 2 psi we may need (16-17psi)

4. Adj. Cam gears

5. 3.5" turbo back exhaust, 3.5" Cat

6. Nice clutch

If I had the money

A 256dur inlet & 264dur exhaust cam.

I've been down the EBC route.

Don't waste your money on it for that power level.

A heavy duty wastegate is a better option.. Control the boost with your right foot.

I've been running ~17psi through the stocker turbo for some time now and unless I've got over 3500rpm and 1/2 throttle on board it won't make that boost.

For me a low boost setting is useless as you either want to put your foot down or you don't.

on an Rb25 its very doable, on an RB20 im unsure....?

can i ask why did you choose the R34 turbo? i find them to be extremely fragile and not capable of running high boost reliably....

they spool quickly, but thats it? in any case, i see "big boost" the only way to get 200kw, so i dont know if the R34 turbo was the best choice?

the r34 turbo that i bought has a steel exhaust wheel and seems to be bigger than standard (exhaust housing) which is strange coz it still has the nylon compressor wheel???

anyway i bought it coz it was cheap and my mate was fitting it for me and for the power im looking for it seemed big enough, maybe ill do the mods ive mentioned and see how i go?? but i was just seeing if anyone thought it might be possible.

also the exhaust housing had some different codes written on it and there was a number on the side of it which was 5 (my mate said something about 5cm cubed or squared??) and another stock r34 turbo we had there had 2 written on it?? it was strange, as for spooling quickly im running 14psi atm and hitting full boost at aprox 4000-4500rpm??

this may not be what you want to hear but,

a r34 turbo is definetly capable of 200rwkw it just depends what dyno you run it on.

I should know, my car seems to have about a 30kw difference depending what dyno i'm on.

btw- my r34 turbo is high flowed and makes about 220rwkw on a dynologic dyno.

Previous owner put the R34 turbo on, i never asked why, suppose he just wanted more power and not spending over a grand.

I did a 14.0 running 1 bar same as on dyno, but i had some ordinary gear changes and lack of grip. Still did a 2.0 60 footer on 205's, Clutch was a bit hot :P

Problem is i can't make boost earlier, how can i do this? When in third gear going down the 1/4 i look at the boost controler and its only making 1bar at 5000rpm.

In first gear it doesnt go above .92 bar coz it climbs to quick... Anyone got some suggestions?

Flaps,

Based on the mph ,60ft time , terminal speed and the fact that the R32 is lighter than an R33 I'd say the dyno of 189rwkw was very generous. Ot at least the 189rwkw you got is lower than the 175rwkw I had when doing a 13.3 @106mph in a heavier R33 gtst with the factory turbo at 10psi. Makes me wonder about shootout mode, since thats what mine was done on.

I'm going to say 'no' to the question of 200rwkw on the RB20 with a stock R34 gtst turbo.

simon,

I reckon your 'stock' rb20 turbo was not really all that stock. At least your 190rwkw was backed up by the cars performance.

It was stock as a rock. I ran 13.3 on stock turbo then 12.8 on a hi flow turbo.

Brians "NICE" r32 gts-t made 270rwhp on its stock turbo .

    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
    • OK, now we are ready to get started. You need to remove the air boxes on each side for clearance. The cover is straightforward, undo the clips on the top and lift the front cover out of the rest of the housing. If it is tight you can remove the air filters first. The rear section of the airbox is trickier. On each side you need to remove the Air flow meter wiring which is held to the airbox with a clip; you need to get behind the clip on 2 sides if you want to remove it without breaking it - unclip the harder side and pull on the clip with medium force, then unclip the easier side and it should pop out The airbox is held onto the intake hose with a spring clamp; you need to get a flat bladed screwdriver behind the spring on both sides and pop them outwards. When you have got them in the right unclipped place they will stay there and the airbox slips out pretty freely. Put a rag in the intake to prevent anything getting dropped in there, and also to prevent you seeing that the turbo seal is leaking oil (as they do). Then. The top of the radiator is held by a steel plate, it is secured by 2x10mm and 2x12mm headed bolts . Remove them and remove the plate Also grab the bushings that hold the radiator to the plate on each side so they are not lost!
    • Next, remove the upper and lower radiator hoses, both are held with a spring clamp. While you are under there, tackle the Auto Trans cooler lines.  Again both are held on with spring clamps, and as mentioned above you should cap them on the radiator side with an 8mm cap, and on the car side loop them with a length of 8mm pipe - this will stop you losing a dangerous amount of AT fluid during the rest of the job If you've been meaning to add a sender for AT trans temp, this is a great time to do it; put a sender fitting into the passenger side line as that is the inlet to the cooler/radiator.
    • Next you need to remove the intake duct (as with pretty much every job on these cars), it is a series of clips you gently remove with a flat bladed screwdriver. They do get brittle with time and can break, and I have not found a decent quality aftermarket one that fits (they are all too soft or flimsy and don't last either) but the nissan ones are a couple of bucks each (ouch).  Once the clips are off (either 8 or 10, I didn't check) you lift the intake duct out and will see the reservoirs Undo the line into the radiator side cap (some bent needle nosed piers are awesome for spring clamps) and then remove the 4x 10m nuts that hold both in place.  I didn't get these pics, but remove the line under the radiator reservoir (spring clamp again) then remove that reservoir. Then you can get at the intake reservoir, same thing, spring clamp underneath then remove it. BTW This is a great time to put in a larger (+70%) combined reservoir that AMS makes..... https://www.amsperformance.com/product/q50-q60-red-alpha-coolant-expansion-tank/ They also make an Infiniti branded and part# version if that is your thing
