two.06l, was that using stock internals, and pump fuel? I didn't think manifolds made much of a diff on the GTR...

I think its more attributable to the 25psi boost pressure. At this boost there wouldn't be much room for error when running pump fuel and a non-forged bottom end.

yeah fair point but we are on the safe side of the limit and we have a very strong engine combo.as well as the best tuner looking after the numbers

two.06, yeah ive read the specs on your car before and your bottom end should handle 25psi no probs. My comments were directed at others whom are running 2530's on stock bottom ends like myself. 20psi on pump fuel with no octane booster is a safe limit and should see 320 - 340rwkw.

That should be good for 550kw @ the wheels. Overshooting the target a bit?

yea thought so but i wasnt quite sure

im thinking of just going down to GCG and seeing what they can build me instead of going for a jap kit

Ok break it down a bit:

400rwkw= 500kw @ flywheel

500kw = 670hp

670hp = 61 lbs/min peak flow based on 10.85hp/lb

Twin 2530's would be getting to be at the limit of their flow capabilities, 2540's would be able to do it, same with GT-RS turbos. In the highmounts any pair of 2835s could it too. The higher you go, the more undriveable it's going to be.

I just used HKS turbos since they are a well known configuration. You should be able to easily get a similar configuration from a decent turbo outlet. No doubt GCG will be happy to sell you a set of GT35Rs or GT42/45Rs that would see you to your expected output figure :(

Oh and as for single turbos, any GT35, GT42, GT45 would be able to do it, or XTR T66 upwards, Turbonetics T66 and up as well (funny that, they just use the same configuration and model designation as Turbonetics? What was that saying, imitation is a form of flattery?), and a whole host of other singles (Holset, KKK, Apexi's new AX singles etc).

All comes down to if you want lowmounts, highmounts, singles or doubles? Or stock turbos and a big whiff of nitrous :(

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.

      Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention

      So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34

      From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
