Well the T67s have fallen over. Shame. I am however exploring another idea of. Twin 700hp high mount kit. This time going all modern. Roller bearing, billet wheels. Looking at staying around .65 rear housing. Do I go twin T51 mod?  
 

any suggestions are welcome.

What is your actual power target? Choosing an exhaust housing a/r without any consideration for the rest is odd, you could end up making an unnecessary compromise unless there is a tangible reason for deciding on the a/r before you have even decided what turbos you are using?

Enough power to get me well into the 8s. 1100-1200hp at the wheels range. I’m looking at a combined a/r that’s slight bigger then my 7685 is (1.12)

  On what kind of dyno?  Hubber? Dyno Dynamics?  Dynojet?

A/r doesn't work like that.  

At this stage I'm assuming you're looking for 60-70lb/min per turbo which would roughly match up with a 7685. Will have a ponder

Haha.   Not the most serious suggestion by a long shot, but felt like it'd be an amusing one to throw in the mix because you were seriously considering twin T67s.

I'd call this about the equivalent to a T67 while being a little bit more modern.  Similar wheel sizes, similarish frame, similar lag, look pretty cool, have T51R mod as an option, and they are pretty much the only turbo in the territory of what you're looking for with published compressor maps that will actually retain compressor efficiency at >40psi and capable of making a fair bit more power:

You'd go the .83 vband hotside (well, I'm *assuming* that it would be the most space compatible).  I know you want .6x but you're looking for max flow and the Borg turbines like a decent a/r, having a quick play with matchbot suggests that at 40+psi you're going to be pushing even the .8x hotside.

LOL at this thread

 

I guess the local crack dealer sold all his rock and it ended up in here. The blind leading the blind.

 

No wonder piggaz took the piss........

Care to elaborate.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
