Hey Guys,

Looking at running a low mount set up I have the following:

Ported and flowed rb25 manifold

R32 gtst ecu with nistune chip

Wal bro pump

Planning on getting:

Gt3076r

Nismo 555cc injectors

HKS evc-s boost controller

Is there anything else I'll need?

Will any modification be needed to run the gt30 on stock manifold? Also what flange is the stock manifold? And can an external gate be run on a low mount set up?

Finally, roughly how much power do you think it will see me?

If running internal gate then no mods besides the spacer plate between manifold and turbo and longer studs. If u want ext gate then need to either mod turbo housing or manifold.

Powerwise around 280-300 on 98 and 320-350 on e85.

Z32 AFM. Since you're buying injectors, don't waste your money on old tech. Buy new EV14s - preferably E85 rated ones.

Turbo flange is T3.

Good luck getting an external gate mounted on housing in stock location. It's a bit squeezy down there. Budget on internal gate for a low mount if using the stock manifold.

This isn't hard and has been done a zillion times.

Disco has a thread recently about putting a 3076 on stock manifold.

Heaps of gates off housings around.

Buy turbo. Buy 20 mm spacer.

Bolt together.

Buy 90 degree silicon joiner or alternatively weld elbow onto turbo outlet

Buy decent injectors and z32.

Boost off into the sunset.

  • Like 2

Manifold spacer/longer studs/Scotty inlet tube/GT30 IW Dump/elbow off comp housing (stainless mandrel or aluminium bend in 2") water and oil lines .

I'd stay RIGHT away from Nismo 550 side feeds . Soon I'll have a set of 740s in the rail for RB25 if interested .

Or convert to EV14s as mentioned with an aftermarket rail .

Has not been back on the rollers yet , on E85 it would be disappointing to see less than 300 given the overall package .

If using a std or Z32 MAF consider keeping the factory airbox and snorkel because it goes a long way to hiding the front 2/3 of the turbo . Scotty inlet or one like it is a must here . Pods scream modified

I've made just over 400RWKW with a GTX3076R on E85, off the stock manifold with a WG welded to the turbine housing.

I actually made 377kw, but it was through an auto which had 8% slip. Some crazy mofos have made up to 455rwkw on one, but uh, at 45PSI. I don't think that is really going to work too well in a stock engine setup, especially if you don't have a GTX and have a GT3076 instead.

Also +1 for getting injectors well, well, well above 555's. You never know when you will need them and the cost difference is almost zero.

    • Just as long as it's not those putridly disappointing RE003s.
    • I had this same experience going from a set of no name tyres that were on a set of good wheels (Enkei RPFs) to some Potenza RE-11s (this was a few years ago). The wet grip in particular was so much higher that it was almost scary considering how dangerous the old tyres were in comparison. The expense of the tyres also made me want them to last longer so drove accordingly. Wife happy. So now she only 'lets' me buy some flavour of Brigestones...
    • This. All of this. I am turning >$300 into small particles inside 20k km, because I like to be able to roll around any 90° street corner at the speed limit. Would my car be more fun with cheaper tyres? Possibly. When I swapped out the bald AD09s for new ones, the change in the car was massive. The obvious one was being able to put the power down instead of lighting up into silly wheelspin. But the corollary of that was that the lateral traction went from being fun to fast. It was more fun when it was loose. But the corollary to the corollary is that if I need to dodge a child in the road or emergency brake to avoid the arsehat who has just tipped a GWM on its side in front of me, then I've got a much better chance of that manoeuvre coming off without unintended "fun" meaning that I hit something else, or the original target.
    • Every time I have to buy new tyres I question what actual difference it makes between running $40 tyres and $300 tyres and whether it's worth it. Because that's a massive difference to the wallet. But then I did go to a driving training at some point which also included emergency braking and swerving in the wet. In part I think it was meant to show people how bad it gets. Funnily enough what I took away from it is that I can go much harder than I thought in my car. I presume mostly because of decent tyres. Some of the other cars there were shocking to behold. And a bit scary that cheap tyres are probably a lot more common on the road than decent ones  
    • I'm pretty sure that is just straight AI generated word soup, where did you receive that ad (facebook)? They misspell Pirelli twice, no human eyes looked at that before it was posted. Incidentally, I am running the chinese pirellis on my V37 and they are.....OK....I didn't go looking for them, they were just what the shop had in stock in the tall size that car needs. LIke any brand, you really can't trust the brand's reputation to apply to every product they produce. Pirelli make good and crap tyres, all with the same logo stamped on them, and all with an attempt at price premium due to the brand
