Looking for some knowledge

Hi guys still new to the forum. Yes I've used the search bar and found a lot of old info on my questions so.... I recently got my R32 GTR it has N1 turbos and was pretty much bone stock other then that when I got it. so this is what I've done so far. 

Hks front pipes 

true 3.5 straight pipe all the way back to a HKS muffler 

HKS super SSQ Bov 

HKS hard piping kit 

ARC Intercooler 

Full Greddy suction kit 

Apexi power FC with a street tune 

removed the boost restrictor 

deleted the ABS rear steering and AC and pretty much all of the suspension has been upgraded 

So my question is I'm looking to make jump to 550 600hp I've been looking at different turbos and it seems like everyone has a different opinion. My plan was tomei manifolds HKS down pipes R35 MAFs but fuel and turbos it seems like some guys say 800cc injectors some say 650s. So just looking for a honest real world opinion or what your running to make 550 600hp I live in Texas so best octane fuel available to me is 93 

 

sorry for any spelling or grammar mistakes lol

650cc injectors will flow enough fuel for ~650HP at the engine.  If your 550-600 numbers are at the wheels, even with American dyno markup (meaning that we think your US dynos read high) then you'd be better off with 800cc injectors.  But to be honest, don't even f**k around with 800s.  Just go straight to some Bosch 1000s and be done with it.  Then you will have spare capacity for more power or E85 (should it become an option).  And no, they are not too big.  You will give nothing away by using them.

I wouldn't persist with twin turbos either.  If you're getting serious and were going to be replacing manifolds and dump pipes, then piss the whole lot off and use a decent modern single.  You will thank me later.

I removed my boost re-stricter from my GTR. IT cost me 14k to rebuild it. And it only has 1 more bore left in block now (over sized pistons).

Sorrry how is this relevant to this thread?

So what do you recommend a GTX3582R? 

I was looking at the flatwell single turbo manifolds and then just do a tial 44mm waste gate. Still want some response like something under 5k. I had a bit turbo E30 and the boost came on at 5,000 and I was shifting at 7500 lol f**king usless

So Doing so research looking like going single turbo is just as expensive if not more lol. Turbo is 3,000 manifold 800 wastegate 600. 3.5 inch downpipe and other Misc welded parts are gonna be around 1,000 so let's ball park it at 6,000$ I thought you guys said this was cheaper lol to do single turbo lol

don't see how that's more spensive then shelling out for tomie manifolds dumps and a set of brand mew turbos.

If you do do it do it properly with a good manifold, split pulse, twin gates and the like though.

 

as mentioned above in a perfectly relevant way, stock engine will probably give up soon enough though, so would pay to look at that I think

Who said cheaper?  I just said "if you are going to pay to do X, then you should do Y instead".  The logical reason for this is that the result will be 500x better than sticking with the crappy packaging and old skool performance of twins.  What does it matter if it costs 20% less or 30% more?  It's a GTR that you plan to make 600+ HP out of.  It is a question of when and how you spend the $50k to make it work.

-5's will make 450kw at the wheels on E85. That is realistically the only option for twins at those power levels, though being American -7's probably make 550hp over there considering how stupidly high your dynos read out. 

Listen to GTSBoy he knows his shit. Realistically anything more than a good -7 setup (which is effectively what you currently have) you may as well go a single, it will out perform the twins in every way, more power, response, and less shit to go wrong. If you want that soft of power, you would have to be an idiot to keep the twins.

Go single if legalities are lax over there in Texas.

IMO GT3582r is good compromise between power and response.

I'm sure with Borg Warner EFR would be wicked.

As for injectors go 1000cc, gives you some head room when you want more power.

I gather you haven't watched the video. Have a look at it - questions of response etc are thoroughly discussed.,

Ok ok lol I guess big single it is. So a GTX35 any reccomdations on exhaust manifolds ? I've been sourcing parts from RHD Japan most Australian company's I've emailed I never get a response back from. I plan on using a tial V60 I've always had good look with tial stuff in the past. If 60mm is to much let me know I hit a big learning curve with the GTR. Coming from bmws I thought this was gonna be cheaper I was dead wrong.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Yup. You can get creative and make a sort of "bracket" with cable ties. Put 2 around the sender with a third passing underneath them strapped down against the sender. Then that third one is able to be passed through some hole at right angles to the orientation of the sender. Or some variation on the theme. Yes.... ummm, with caveats? I mean, the sender is BSP and you would likely have AN stuff on the hose, so yes, there would be the adapter you mention. But the block end will either be 1/8 NPT if that thread is still OK in there, or you can drill and tap it out to 1/4 BSP or NPT and use appropriate adapter there. As it stands, your mention of 1/8 BSPT male seems... wrong for the 1/8 NPT female it has to go into. The hose will be better, because even with the bush, the mass of the sender will be "hanging" off a hard threaded connection and will add some stress/strain to that. It might fail in the future. The hose eliminates almost all such risk - but adds in several more threaded connections to leak from! It really should be tapered, but it looks very long in that photo with no taper visible. If you have it in hand you should be able to see if it tapered or not. There technically is no possibility of a mechanical seal with a parallel male in a parallel female, so it is hard to believe that it is parallel male, but weirder things have happened. Maybe it's meant to seat on some surface when screwed in on the original installation? Anyway, at that thread size, parallel in parallel, with tape and goop, will seal just fine.

      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.
