So u made 250rwkw @ 17psi with standard ECU, standard injectors, standard afm?

safc2 etc?

oh and my turbo choice would be HKS GT-RS

i didnt say that. The ECU is stock meaning in does have a chip in it but it is not an aftermarket one such as a wolf or a Powerfc. And yes i do have 550cc injectors

the xr6 turbo is pretty big its like a gt30 or 35 or somethin, highly doubtful it bolts straight on to a stock manifold...

sydneykid: so out of the GCG high flow and a HKS 2835s, would u still pick the high flow? im deciding which one to go for, but a few $$ extra (from nengun 2835 is 2500 delivered) would it be worth it?

I decided against the HKS as I wasn't going to pay more money for something I could achieve with a high flow of the standard turbo. Don't get me wrong the HKS GT2835 would be great and I bet would be maybe 5-10% (better then high flowing your standard R33 Turbo but for the money why bother, you could save yourself plenty by going the high flow way and at least you can put that into a better dump or manifold :)

just cos you save money on something does mean you can't spend it on something else the car may need :D

I am currently highflowing my stock turbo to a GT30 standard.. not sure what style like GT3030 or GT3040 but enough to give about 600 odd horsies :)

GCG Ball Bearing high flow, 265 rwkw and more power EVERYWHERE than standard:cheers:

Hi sk.

What about the power delivery of the hi-flow?Do you have any dyno graphs?

If no.How does it compare to a 2530/35 garett or hks.You had tomei poncams as well for that figure to right.

What are the comp housings/exh housing specs of the stock unit high hi flowed.

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
