Hi guys,

I was wondering if someone in the Sydney area can help me out. I'm currently looking at installing 2860-5 to my car. I have purchased everything that I need to do this.

The drama I'm having now is the thought of going straight to a single gt35r or simular. I really want to make sure I will be happy with the /5's. can anyone in Sydney take me for a spin? (you drive of course) so I can be sure I am doing the right thing :pi really want to feel how the power is delivered. No point on going to all this effort for disappointment when I could have done it another way in the first place.

Can meet at a maccas or servo of wherever required. Would really appreciate it!

What capacity is your motor?

What kinda power are you chasing?

What fuel will be used?

Driven 5's on a 2.8L and hold the faaark on after 4K on a 2.6L id say itd take around the 5K+ zone before things get exciting ;)

Andy i have the t517z 10cm on mine and i can show you that, ive gone straight to a gtx3076r (sitting next to me right now <3) because unless you plan on building your engine the gt35 is too big and lagy for the standard internal 2.6 You can push the gtx3076r to 400+kw on e85 and anything past that on a standard block and your asking for trouble. Ill only have these turbos on the car for the next few weeks then its all coming off for the single.

Hey mate, keeping it a 2.6 for now. Chasing 350kw+ on e85. Stock bottom end.

Yea mate, pm me your number. Would love to come around and check it out. About due for a catch up anyhow. I'm going to keep stock internals for now and see how far we can push it. I may look at a rb26/30 if or when she blows.

If your chasing 400, get ready for disappointment...

Hey may not make those numbers... Even on e85. But it would be as responsive as hell.

No, sorry, -5s will make it on e85 easy if everything is sorted. Heaps of examples of it in the 400kw thread.

The gtx3076, I don't think will flow 400kw except when the setup is tip top and turbo is all in. I dunno why you'd go that route over the 6262 which seems to be more popular these days.

Not many people run gt30 singles on 26s.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
