Goal = 400rwkw

 

I've got a fairly stock R34 GTT about to start modifying it to eventually reach my goal of 400kw. I've been looking into the precision 62/66 turbo as an option, sorta bias towards that option due to my mate having one spare I can get cheapish.

 

It ticks most of the boxes for the things I want in a turbo, only thing bothering me is that it is GEN 1. Is it worth saving for a GEN 2 62/66?

 

And it has a rear A/R of 0.68. will this be to small in a negative way? I think that a smaller A/R will give better low down tourq ect. Which is what I want, just doubting myself cause I see alot of recommendations for the 0.8ish size on similar size turbos like the gt3582.

 

Cheers!!

 

You'd want the CEA (ball bearing) version, and if you've got the budget to build a 400+kW Skyline then you won't shy at the cost of going with a split pulse/twin gate setup that's well designed (ie not a dodgy cheap China manifold and piping).

A 0.6x turbine housing would completely defeat the purpose of this size turbo, just choke the thing and frustrate you. I'd expect a decent setup on Neo 25 to perform best across 4500-8000rpm

An excellent alternative complete HTA3076 setup complete bolt-on capable of nearly 400kW is currently up for sale by 34GeeTeeTee. Well worth a look.

Im hoping for a turbo that has the potential to get to 400+kw but has decent response due to the car being driven on the street 90% of the time. From what i understand the 62/66 has the potential to exceed 400kw, but with the smaller A/R it will reduce the max hp output but increase the response. due to the turbo having the high hp potential (more than my goal) i can afford to loose some max hp and gain some response whilst still suiting my goals?

This is just how i understand it, please correct me if im wrong, still learning haha.

Given that it's the wrong turbo, you'd better look at the various other turbo threads, especially the Borg Warner thread.

What do you mean by the wrong turbo?

cheers ill have a look at them threads!

 

Big flowing compressor needs to be matched with a turbine capable of flow.  Otherwise the engine effectively has a cork up its arse and can't breathe out.  So it won't get near 400kW, and streetable response isn't there.  Better achieved by using a different setup.

I have the Gen 2 6266 BB with a .82 rear housing... setup is not completely refined yet but its making ~20-21psi around 4700rpm, currently making 620hp on 23psi on a dynapack hubber..  forged 25 non neo with camtech cams and performance springs, the .68 rear will become a restriction as stated

Dyno sheet is in the rb25 thread

 

If you're on some what of a budget, don't discount @hypergear turbos. Their 45SAT will get you over 400kW and be decent enough to drive around town. I would recommend you go for the ball bearing version.

I've been believer of Hypergear Turbos since I started using them. I'm now on my 3rd Hypergear turbo (of course bigger each time) .

Yep you could always get the ss version of the atr45sat aswell

Think that comp wheel flows around the mid 400 mark

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
