ATM the exhaust is just cat back how big would you go the whole way through?

What's the diametre size of your car back?

If it's a 3", then go 3", if it's a 3.5" go 3.5" etc...

​Keep it consistent.

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.

What do you recommend? I'm open minded. Honestly, I was thinkin of purchasing the Garrett equivalents as I official N1 turbos would be pricey.

I thought these cars needed a little back flow. Having the whole exhaust the same size would not promote that.

Yes, genuine N1 turbos would be pricey at the same time rare to find.

Garrett -7's would be the closest to the N1 equivalents.

I am running Garrett -7's with 15.5 Psi, which is just over 1 Bar.

Later I will run about 18 Psi = 1.2 Bar, but will get my mechanic to see what he thinks best.

Many factors are involved but you'd run what's safe for the engine / what the turbos can handle, so when you go in for a tune after the twin turbo installation, your mechanic should be able to gauge what it can run.

Not that I know of... That theory might apply to N/A cars... As you can only go so big unless it's tuned for it...

With turbocharged cars, usually the bigger the better, but 3" / 3.5" is usually the upgrade we all go for and it frees up the exhaust flow.

:)

​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.

I know it'll do 400+ kW's for a fact as well ;)

I apolagize it has a 3.5 inch all the way through just had a look before with that and a bigger intercooler does that add any more hp with out a tune? Just curious cause next step is a bigger fuel pump, injectors, tune and ecu yeah?

:laugh: yes clearly, you would know!

Good and thanks for clarifying that!

So your exhaust is all good then!

Depends on what power out put you want... How many kW's you want?

Which determine if you need a bigger fuel pump / injectors / ECU / Tune or not...

I'm looking for 350 hp at the wheels..... So im guessing I need a fair bit

I'm looking for 350 hp at the wheels..... So im guessing I need a fair bit

Which is about 261 rwkW's.

You stock injectors / fuel pump / ECU can handle it.

The ECU will need a slight tweak but nothing crazy.

What ecu were you running?

Run a Nistune or an APex'i Power FC.

Id say that you will very quickly get bored of 250kw. So i would recommend a link ecu. I shouldve skipped the power fc stage and gone straight to a link

What link will you reccommend? Shouldn't get bored to quick as I'm only used to driving a vz sv6 haha

What's the highest stock whp that can be SAFELY achieved using stock components and N1 turbos?

Sent from my SC-03D

To be safe for street use, anywhere around the 300kW mark at the rear wheels.

Two friends of mine on SAU are running stock RB26's but one has Garrett -7's and the other has Garrett -9's

Both making 300rwkW's, which is about 402HP at the wheels, if you want to measure in HP.

You could push it further but it will depend on the condition of the engine.

    • For these last 7 years of ownership, I've always had to use a small scissor jack under one of the front tow hooks to raise the front just enough so my low-profile jack fits under to reach my subframe jack point. I'm beginning to get annoyed of always having to do this. Are there any lower low-profile jacks that fit under the gtr lip on a dropped car?
    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
