Ok so after so shits and giggles I have been looking at turbos to replace the ones on my cars

For the R32 I'm looking at twin Kinugawa Billet TD04H-19Ts, should give same response with more top end

Chance of working 95%

For the R34 I'm looking at either Kinugawa Billet TD06L2S-20Gs or Garret GTX3071rs with the front housing off my HKS GT-RSs and some Kando T25 GT30 rear housings, should give good response and quench the RB30s thrust for air :D

Chance of working 80%

This thread is about odd twin turbo setups, if you have some post em and why and an estimated chance of working like you want them to

I'm looking at doing a set of -7s with billet kinugawa 60mm comp wheels (basically -5 size) on a 2.6 for a bit of an experiment

Chance of working at a guess 75% provided it doesn't go straight to surge due to the smaller front housings

I'm monitoring this thread. Curious what GTX3071's could do in twin form. Also what kind of manifold would you need for twins that size?? I've never pulled a gtr apart so I don't really know how much room there is

over 500kws and a cracked block ;)

That is an interesting idea, that Hawkins dude put -7 comp housings on to -5s and got decent results with it and with the Billet wheel should be even better :)

That's more an idea then something that will actually happen, but if it was possible/managed to do it would easy pass 500kw, I have got 458kw with the GT2871Rs ( HKS GT-RSs ) and got boost limited due to the rear wheels choking it at over 28psi

My idea is Kando T25-GT30 rear housing to bolt in to the factory location on the standard manifolds and use the GT-RSs front housings to keep the engine bay as stock looking as possible :D

mick i have a hks 3037s twin kit your r34 would like

I actually looked that up, the 3037s are GT3076Rs and are to much comp wheel for what I'm after and also very unlikely to fit the factory location :(

over 500kws and a cracked block ;)

500kws at the wheels is the idea, but why would that crack my block, can the RB30s not take that much power

that was what I thought he did, makes me feel even more confident now

I have seen a few cracked blocks lately on cars running e85, seems the cylinder pressure just splits the bore from bottom to top. It's totally up to your tuner, and how much timing he decides to run, I hope he is good because you can't see massive cylinder pressure, and you can't know when it is too much for your block to handle.

My suggestion is to keep the bore thick, not oversize the pistons. Or perhaps sleeve the block...any strength there will help.

What about the FP HTA 68 mm comp wheels, Micky?

I did think about them cause they are a good piece of gear but with what exhaust side, Owen Developments do one boltin for the RB26 but it is still the same rear wheel as I have now which isn't big enough :(

Would be good in your -5s though :)

Brett's idea is would be even better for you though me thinks and the idea of this thread, bitsa turbos in twin form, engine doesnt really matter just throw together turbos you have done or have thought about doing :thumbsup:

Hmm.

Would 0.84 housings fit in a stock position? It would mean custom dumps but.

Those 68's are too big for me. If I did anything, prob the 60 mm gtx's in stock housings.

Lithiums idea was a rip snorter. The trust t517's with their bigger rear wheel and the FP 68 mm front fans. I think that's what it was.

Kando have a billet Kinugawa TD05H-18G that would be close enough to Liths idea, same exhaust wheel and housing and a Billet 68mm comp wheel, just not the HTA gear, which I would consider one step up from where I am now

3071's seem to work fairly well for a 3L engine, this is another members car on aus300zx. Not an RB but still 3L :P

98 RON 446rwkw 23PSI

98 RON+ Water Injection 489rwkw 23PSI3runcomp001.jpg

That doesn't look all that laggy given twin GT30 rears on a 3.0, give me hope of a good result if I go that way :thumbsup:

not they wouldn't fit cause they don't make a compact .84 housing

    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
