I don't mean to knock you so don't take it personally, but isn't that power figure really Poor?

I mean I got a similar figure when I had my R32 with an exhaust, filter, rb25 turbo and 11psi..

and alot of guys get over 160rwkw with stock rb20 turbo..

surely this is not normal for an R34 GTT

unless it's auto.. maybe?

Nah its a manual not a wussbox :P

Ummm.. Im in Bathurst which is about 700 - 800m higher than you Sydney guys if that makes much of a difference. (I know it did years ago back in the Dark ages of carbys)

Let's clear something up here, R32 GTST, R32 GTR, R33 GTST, R33 GTR and R34 GTT all have ceramic turbines.  R32 GTST, R32 GTR, R33 GTST, R33 GTR have steel compressor wheels.  These turbos are made by Garrett for Nissan using Nissan tooling.  Although I have seen a couple of late R33 GTST's with plastic compressor wheels.  All R34 GTT's I have seen have plastic compresor wheels.  These turbos are made by Hitachi for Nissan using Nissan tooling.

I have never seen a problem with the plastic compressor wheels, it's the ceramic turbines that are subject to failure at high boost and/or temperature.

The type of turbo fitted has nothing to do with the overboost protection, its dependant on the ECU. :(

what tipe of turbos do r33 gtrs have dude (you sure know alotabout these cars)

:):cheers:

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSPT male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSPT reducing bush? I am making the assumption the OEM sender is BSPT not BSPP/BSP

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use

      I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.

      You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.

      ..this is the current state of that port. I appreciate the info help (and the link to the Earls thing @Duncan). Though going by that it seems like 1/4 then BSP'ing it and using a bush may work. I don't know where I'd be remote mounting the pressure sender... to... exactly. I assume the idea here is that any vibration is taken up by the semiflexible/flexible hose itself instead of it leveraging against the block directly. I want to believe a stronger, steel bush/adapter would work, but I don't know if that is engineeringly sound or just wishful thinking given the stupendous implications of a leak/failure in this spot. What are the real world risks of dissimilar metals here? It's a 6061 Aluminum block, and I'm talking brass or steel or SS adapters/things.
