y the hell would i need to do homework on turbos that blow after a few thousand km's?? My turbo works fine. I think you need to do research my friend as to why ur stuff keeps blowing up :)

Maybe its similar to my turbo recently declared totaly screwed after 2/3000 K's :Oops:

Had the turbo high flowed and changed from roller bearing to normal oil bearing.

TROUBLE IS the oil supply line was not modified to supply a lot more oil to suit the oil bearings!

The std oil supply line has a restriction in the banjo fitting on the block to suit the reduced amount of oil required for roller bearing. :P

So I have now drilled out the banjo restricter so it will get full flow when it goes back on soon after being refitted with the largest flowing T4 comp wheel.

But I have retained the std small turbine housing with the backcut wheel for good low down response - hope it wont choke, but have a full 3" custom dump to 3" cat and 3" S/S exhaust. :)

LOL INASNT listen here if you actually used your 300rwkw on the track strip or even the street you would realise that stuff breaks maybe not turbos but other items.:P

or you are driving it hard and its jsut not making more than 200 rwkw to break anything :)

/me grabs his keyboard and raises it in the air :upurs:

I am infact heading to falls creek for work on tueday morning, so if you want you can meet me in bright and you can race me in my company car (BA XT) from bright to mt beauty coz there some sweet mountain trails through there :P

Or come race at sandown next month :)

No shit other things break, but we are talking about turbos and bearing faliure here and you dont need to drive it at the strip or track for that to happen!!

And even if my car was making 100rwkw its still more than urs does boxing.gif  

Peace Out :D

ahaha lolz, he was bagging me at mas for not getting a line, and he is NA!!!! ahahahaha the irony is sweet

OBEHVE is running a RB30 hybrid just like TRY09S i think.

Scotsman/marcus see you at sandown next month, cant wait should be lots of fun :D

He's runnin the rb25 bottom end and head, going by the article in zoom, a while ago.

    • Good to hear. Hopefully you're happy enough not to notice when driving and just enjoy yourself.
    • I mean, most of us just love cars. Doesnt necessarily have to be a skyline.
    • Did you pick up a manual cluster to remove the position indicator?  (Pretty sure the 34 has the gear position in the cluster, but it's been a while)
    • Here is a recipe. Sonic blocks till you get one that has a good enough bore. Get a torque plate and block brace, use your choice of fasteners (arp ect) bolt the thing together empty, half fill it and let it cure. Release it when it has, go to a REPUTABLE RB Builder and get the thing line bored/honed and cylinder honed to size, then wash. Once its all clean and dandy, wash and blow it out again. Then again.  Assemble said engine to your desired clearances with oil control mods, gasket to suit desired CR/Squish ect. Attach your extended sump with proper trap door oil baffles and head drain plumbed to sump with a SUMP BREATHER SYSTEM. Build your front diff with a decent LSD, rebuild your transfer case with a few extra plates, more than likely replace your tailshaft centre bearing and tighten up the rear diff. Tune to minimise excessive midrange cylinder pressure (timing unless you like to split bores and rebuild engines) Enjoy your engine, but hate the fact you are now destroying engine mounts, gearboxes, gearbox mounts, diff output flanges and driveshafts, diff mounts, tailshafts and front CV's.   Disclaimer.... Ive never done any of the aforementioned stuff.......
    • 440s will support well over 400HP on petrol, which is a decent place to be for an RB20. 230+rwkW. Will be a safer bet for idle/low load. 550s would be nice for the extra headroom. I've made the same decision with mine (Neo25). 1000s are probably too big for the Nistuned ECU, so I have some smaller ones.
