You really need to think about what you want from the car, cause a car with 600hp (which is a figure you keep mentioning) wont be the greatest daily.

How much do you want to spend?

What are you using the car for?

Answer these two questions and i think youll get more specific answers.

Split T4

Thank you, look at something like this

http://www.precisionturbo.net/Street-and-Race/ss/600-800HP/details/Street-and-Race-Turbocharger---PT6262-CEA-reg-/245

With the T4 divided housing

I have always preferred twin setups for response but lately the tech in the mid to big singles is so far ahead they are possible beating twin ATM, and since you there it just makes sense to stay with what you have

Where are you located ?

Hopefully Mr Lith or Disco stick their noses in here they will have a better idea of turbos to use

To get a reasonably linear 300rwkw plus, a pair of Garrett (stock replacement turbo's) GT2860-7

OR HKS GT-SS http://www.kudosmotorsports.com/catalog/hks-turbocharger-upgrade-kit-hks-gtss-11004an002-nissan-skyline-r32-gtr-r33-gtr-r34-gtr-rb26dett-p-1221.html

Hard pipe kit (need both):

Dump pipe kit:

I'd suggest the tomei dumps with a custom down pipes or a full greddy dump kit.

Get some stock exhaust manifolds, have someone port them out (support upwards of 500rwkw).

Similar dyno results can be achieved with a well chosen single turbo, however power delivery on the street is normally not as smooth as twins... it's the off boost to 'on power' transition where the real difference is in my option.

... btw the main reason I chose to link the products to Kudos is that they support SAU as well as being one of the only professional and customer focused parts suppliers for skyline parts in Aus.

I didn't say that to try to offend you, sorry if I did.

I have already given you the advice of taking it easy for a bit and doing some research. if it takes another couple of weeks it will be worth it, both better and cheaper.

No offense Ben, would not have stayed on this site if I took offense easily :yes: blokes say what is on their mind and I do the same, all good.

The trouble is knowing nothing is a pain and I have tried to look around and the more I look the more confusing it gets, someone will love a product and the next bloke will say it is a heap of crap, makes my head spin :rolleyes:

Efr 8374iwg ( I think it is, might have those numbers wrong )

Friend has one on his gtr, it is a 3L, but makes something like 22psi before 3k and can go on to make 600whp.

Hi Richard, your numbers were right, I had a look at the Borg Warner site and that could be one I will keep in mind.

I did see they are Dual Row Ceramic Ball Bearings , I remember a post/s saying that these can brake up and enter your motor , or was that referring to a different type of ceramic part ?

Different part, what they were talking about is the factory ceramic rear wheel, they can break off and end up in your cat, I personally have never seen one go into a motor

I read something on the GTROC Forum , they did not mention Ceramic Ball Bearings so it should be OK

So I have another Turbo on my list , thanks

I don't know the bolt pattern of the T78 of hand but anything in the PT range is good, probably a PT6262 will get you where you want to be

Or even one of the HTA turbos

looking at the PT 6266 as most of the components of the T78 can be used.

Thanks for your input

Pete

Your most welcome :)

The one in the link I posted ?

I never saw the post. I will have a look if I can find it :yes:

Not that interested in the Dyno readings, I want to feel it on the road, No lag and responsive as possible from the start. Until you drive the car for a while it is hard to know what you want, I know now.

Been talking to Joey and he said that MAYBE the PT6266 could still be a bit big for what I want , quicker spool, mid range power that can still use the T78 components, anything come to mind?

I will keep looking and hoping for members to point me in the right direction. I am hoping to find what I want soon as I want to get the job done during the Easter School hols as I will have to take my kids with me to Sydney for a week while it is being done.

Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction and to get me thinking with the top head :cool:

Oh yuk, get rid of them

I suggest the UE cams to every one, they are a good setup and if I had of put some more thought into my head while the motor was apart I would have a set

If you want to change cams with "boltins" then either stock or type R poncams

This was the info I got back? Too late for the Poncams B, BUT that is life :blush:

The engines are designed with a certain power band range when we design and build them .

The power band of the PTE6266B CEA SP is perfect for the engines power band range of 4500 pm to 85000rpm ( std engine rpm range is 4000 to 8000 rpm ).

There is a turbo that is one size down from the 6266 and that is the PTE6262B CEA SP. This will give you a similar power band range as the original engine ( 4000 to 8000 rpm ).

Keep in mind that the exhaust manifold will need to be modified to suit either new turbo set up.

That would be ceramic wheels on turbos, like the factory GT-R ones.

I'd be impressed if you could even break a ceramic bearing.....and even more if they could somehow find their way from a sealed bearing cartridge into your engine

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
