Me too Mick, me too! I am itching to see how the GT3586R performs, especially with the 0.85 rear. I don't know of anyone else in Australia using the same combo' as yet.

Realistically, a month or more... the new engine build isn't finished yet. Dump pipe has to be fabricated, a bunch of ceramic coating etc. It doesn't help that I like everything to look nice as well, so more polishing and ceramic coating etc. Then I have to bed the rings in, the list goes on.

Wow man, it is going to be all around monster compared to your old setup. Should have got a Super94 for it, probably drive similar (definitely not worse) and gives you the potential for 600kw lol

The FP HTA GT3586R will be the fourth turbo I've tried since I purchased the car (99% stock) in 1999 - it was less than 5yrs old at the time.

The aftermarket turbocharger industry has changed a touch over the years. I've watched prices drop by more than 1/2, available options more than double, and response and peak power rise to levels once unheard of!

I won a dyno day at the then Croydon Autosports a few months after I bought my 33, just over 200kW at the rears was enough to pip about 20 other competitors. For those that remember him/his car Mario bought the once famous 'GTR700' from the same yard some months after I bought my 33. They wanted $75k for that R33 GT-R.... it was 100% standard.

Awesome :D

Be very interesting to overlay the old RB25 + T62 with the RB30 + GT3586R - it should be a bit of a mindblowing comparison.... bearing in mind they are both 62mm turbos!

Easy done, I'll be using the same dyno I've used for many years so I can load up my old file and overlay with the new one. Shaun (workshop and dyno owner) probably still has dyno runs from the previous turbo too - very old school Garrett T3/T04E combo'.

Disappointing we just didnt get to show it     Apparently this is motorsport !  
    • Thanks, will do that.  Thankfully they still feel great.
    • Yeah man, absolutely. You can try pushing me all the way in swapping the R34 for an E9x M3 
    • It's almost certainly going to be some amount of pads compound transfer onto the rotors. It will probably go away after you've run them for a bit. If not, pull it all out, lightly sand the rotors, scuff the pads, and rebed.
    • no one recommending speedtek gearsets?   i'm in the same boat as Cosline but rwd, I am holding boost back in third to 600nm at the hubs to save the gear as i make nearly 750nm at the hubs on a mainline
