I've got a Nissan 200sx RS13 (UK spec, had the CA18DET engine in her) (just thought i would point that out so you know what car the engine is now in)

I’m planning to run something like 300-350rwhp, but I’m a little unsure of what I really need/want, I need friendly spool up and a healthy top end for long drifts, I think the RS13 is a little lighter then the Skyline but unsure once again (I’m sure you will tell me for sure :P )

I’ve been looking at the HKS GT-RS, I’ve been told it’s a good turbo and will do the job, but not having much people around here with RB20DETs its hard to tell how good this will be, I know you can’t really say for sure with out me pointing out the rest of my spec but if you can give me an indication of what would be best as its not all about out right power with this sport (as you know) drivability is the order of the day :D

I think i've read the bottom end is good for 450bhp, is that right.

If you can, tell me the spec i would need to run good power small lag?? I'm saving for a high spec rebuild :D

HKS GT-RS, HKS GT3037s, HKS GT2835 pro s, along those lines :D

Any help would be appreciated :D

if you want something cheap and nasty for drift a T04E with manifold should cost less than a grand. Its got a nice low RPM spool

On a best case scenario with an RB20DET running it at 15psi, you should get the following:

2000rpm - 5psi

3000rpm - 10psi

4000-7000rpm - 15psi

should be good for around 300hp.

An HKS 3037 is similar in specs I think. A lot of guys use the 2530 as a standard bolton upgrade for the RB25DET's.

Cool, this would be better then the HKS GT-RS :P

Parts i've got so far, Tomie Pistons and rods, HKS steel head gasket, head ported and polished Tomie 260degree cams, custom plenum, nismo 550 injectors, z32, trust massive intercooler, blitz nur spec, HKS filter, Power FC (sorting at the moment)...........you get the idea.

What are the spes of this T04E ??

cheers

my r32 is an ex drift car from japan and its has an rb20det with a td06....

this has huge top end power currently its only putting out about 185 rwkw on 10psi but the diff is screwed.... so should be about 240ish on 16psi hopefully

Interested to hear how you go at 16psi,

I was making mid 180rwkws at 8psi, with 17psi it made 222rwkws. I would have thought it could make a bit more power with the additional 9psi... but meh, its a dyno figure, it feels pretty damn spritely at that power / boost level:)

PMSL, most of my build spec has already changed :( (RB24DET on its way :()

Anyways just got my HKS exhasut manifold with T3 flange, was thinking of getting a GT3071R maybe in .64a/r with 4 inch outlet and 4 inch inlet, external wastgated (what size wastgate shoud i use)

whats your thoughts on that ??

the GT3071R with an A/R .63 would be ideal if u were building your engine as a RB24, otherwise a little more responsive would be the GT3071R with 90trim exhaust wheel. this is identical to the HKS GT2835R.

44mm external w/gate (Tial to be exact) should do u perfectly.

it sounds like it's gonna be a nice toy to have, enjoy

@Morgs

Yeah building it myself at the moment, put the order thought for the 82mm Tomei pistons just got to await for them to arrive :rofl:

The crank has gone off for cheacking and polish and should be back ready to start machining the block :D

I'm looking into how to go about having the head machined out too to take the 82mm pistons, so i guess i will be able to stick with near normal steel headgasket and it will lower the CR a bit :)

@RS500

Yeah seems to me to be a good turbo and nice map, i don't know if i want the .64a/r don't know if it may surge or not ??

@180bfj20det

Yeah the GT30R is a great turbo but i feel its a little big for what i want, i must say power is not everything for what i need.

Dude you have too much money :rofl:. But damn thats gona be one hella awesome engine/S13. People wont know whats hit them!

Im not sure what turbo, but if all is set up well even something of decent size should come on ok, just might have to drive the car a little different to cope :D

With the 2.4L and compression, and i recall you are goign to be runnign cams etc, then id be looking at a HKS2835. If your a Garrett guru like some folk here and know the general equiv then id be running one of the m with an external gate and nice tubular manifold wrapped up and bracketed off the block.

With this style of 420-450hp turbo you will have some serious stomp and make around 260-280-rwkws with good midrange.

If you want a bit more then i would be tempted to run a 500hp GT30, but having now been in a few GT30 RB25s id say the GT28 series turbo is the go for an all round performer. Basically because i have the Trust equiv on a std RB20 and im stoked with the performance, but a new BB Garret would on paper be a bit nicer

Yeah sounds good dude, only problem i've already got the manifold :Oops: i hope its to your liking as its to mine :D

Just fitted it as it only arrived from japan yesterday morning :D :wassup:

I'm going to have to look into the HKS GT2835 as it pops up alot, is it the same spec then (or near) as the GT3071R from garret?

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
