Go to driver's side strut tower, locate the boost solenoid (small tube looking thing), pull the whose off with a white band on it, squish it, it should feel hard (piece of plastic in there), cut that bit off (so you remove the white band/plastic restricter thing), put the hose back on, enjoy 12psi.

Without knowing the condition of the 20 year old standard turbos, I wouldn't suggest anything over 12 psi unless you WANT to blow the turbos. Keep it sensible until you are ready to upgrade them.

Stock boost for the R32 GTR is around 0.7 Bar = 10.9 Psi.

Well that's what mine ran at.

If you don't know the condition of the stock turbos don't run anything above 0.8 Bar = 12 Psi.

​Just in regards to your bigger front mount intercooler, you were better off spending the money on Down and Front Pipes with a High Flow Cat.

Giving your GTR a full exhaust upgrade will benefit you more at this stage, if you just want to keep it stock-ish...

Stock GTR front mount intercooler can handle 300+ kW's.

But anyway, all for the better in the long run.

Sorry to butt in. On the subject of stock engine and boost, I'm running a very healthy R33 Rb in my 32-r and I'll upgrade to N1 steal wheels with ceramic coatING on the hot side, what's a good boost for me while still being on the safe side?

Sent from my SC-03D

What N1 turbos you getting?

From memory they came from factory running about 1 Bar = 14.7 Psi.

(R32 GTR Nismo & N1 / R33 GTR N1 / R34 GTR V-Spec N1 & V-Spec II N1 / V-Spec II Nur / M-Spec Nur)

You could run a tad higher 1.1 Bar = 15.9 Psi / 1.2 Bar = 17.4 Psi.

My GTR has the R33 N1s and I have been running 22psi on them for the last 2 years on E85. I think I have stock bottom end. I don't drive it at that boost all day if that helps

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
