Hi All,


I have been reading around for a while to try and figure out my next mods.


I like something around 500bhp from fly which i think would be around 400 at wheel, right ?


I don't want to go forge or change cams at this stage .


I have seen gt35,30,28 and number of others but not sure what is best for me .


everyone has a different opinion reading around . what would you get and what is the max power from the turbo at what psi ?


I think gt30 is low mount which is good but gt35 or other are high mount and if i was to run gt 35 , I think it will be very lazy as I will be running it at a very low boost , right ?


I think minimum mod to get to 500 bhp is :


550 or above injectors

bigger intercooler

ecu ( link 4)

turbo .


and possibly manifold if it is not straight bolt on as most people say gt30 is .


am i right ?can i expect safe 500bhp from the car with the above cost and mod ?


if I was to do this in stages and buy the turbo and do no remap but run it at low boost , will it work ?


many thanks

That's what the info is though isn't it?. What people think and have experienced is all over the forum.

You are asking for it to be laid out for you to make it easier for you. Which is spoon feeding.

How did you read for 5 hours and not figure out that an rb25 can easily make that power, that pretty much everyone talks kW, that Hypergear high flows bolt straight on, that a gt35 will be a lag monster etc.....?

You will get heaps of different answers, time to learn and make your own decisions.

You did say you and found lots of dif opinions, so do you expect anything dif from a new thread asking the same thing???

Here ya go, this should get you started, be warned it may take you more than 5hrs of research to learn all thats needed.

Then again maybe not, it all comes down to you.

OK. Even though you don't need assurance, here goes.

You can do it. You can do a good job if you out your mind to it. I believe in your abilities. You're really good at cars. Never give up. Don't stop believing. Keep on being you, you are wonderful.

For someone with limited funds you sure have alot of funds to spend, from your recent threads. Anyway you're asking what turbo's best for you? gtx3076 is what you want. And i mean that in a medical sense.

Trust me, i'm a doctor.

    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
    • It's TWO steering wheels actually. 😛 one for each hand They are wheels, and they steer!
