"Xkalaba" has gone 290 kw with standard r32 GTR turbos, so I'd imagine 33's being capable of something similar.

However, just put a set of -7's/-9's on instead of trying to steel wheel/high flow/muck around with the standard units and call it a day.

They have the capability to f*ck your motor when they let go.

I believe 260kw puts them in the red, so either enjoy your GTR with its catback exhaust and pod filters or put your hand in your pocket (whichever way you decide to go).

I searched " rb26 stock turbo rebuild" and "gtr 33 stock turbos"

Amongst others so please #@GTSBoy what should I search for

Use other keywords like "limit" or "limits" or "maximum" or "ceiling". And then there is Google. You can specify which site you want to search on (including these forums) and do your search with Google, which is usually much more powerful than the built in site search on any forum (I almost never trust the search on any forum to find what I want).

Surely you must realise that this forum has been operation for a very long time. So there is no way on god's green earth that you are the first to ask these questions. On that basis, there MUST be threads out there with exactly the questions you ask and the answers you want.

As a pair, the standard turbos are capable of spinning up 12psi of pressurised air into the inlet manifold without disintegrating.

There is a an RB26 dyno thread, maybe look through that for rough ideas. R34 N1 (Garrett -7) would be a "steel wheeled" equivalent.

    • Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.
    • Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using. 
    • There's plenty of OEM steering arms that are bolted on. Not in the same fashion/orientation as that one, to be sure, but still. Examples of what I'm thinking of would use holes like the ones that have the downward facing studs on the GTR uprights (down the bottom end, under the driveshaft opening, near the lower balljoint) and bolt a steering arm on using only 2 bolts that would be somewhat similarly in shear as these you're complainig about. I reckon old Holdens did that, and I've never seen a broken one of those.
    • Let's be honest, most of the people designing parts like the above, aren't engineers. Sometimes they come from disciplines that gives them more qualitative feel for design than quantitive, however, plenty of them have just picked up a license to Fusion and started making things. And that's the honest part about the majority of these guys making parts like that, they don't have huge R&D teams and heaps of time or experience working out the numbers on it. Shit, most smaller teams that do have real engineers still roll with "yeah, it should be okay, and does the job, let's make them and just see"...   The smaller guys like KiwiCNC, aren't the likes of Bosch etc with proper engineering procedures, and oversights, and sign off. As such, it's why they can produce a product to market a lot quicker, but it always comes back to, question it all.   I'm still not a fan of that bolt on piece. Why not just machine it all in one go? With the right design it's possible. The only reason I can see is if they want different heights/length for the tie rod to bolt to. And if they have the cncs themselves,they can easily offer that exact feature, and just machine it all in one go.
