well he said when he had a quick drive it made 3psi at 6,500 rpm so its a top end screamer

as expected.

it would be quite a pig to drive with that sized turbo no matter what size engine.

I think your looking for the word "sic" not pig he's going to drag then swap to a hks 2535 for drift

well yeah, the owner must be crazy to drive something like that.

fyi, the hks gt2535 is too small for the RB24, you'd be better off with a hks gt2835r or the new garrett gt3071r.

exactly the turbo i'll be downsizing to with my 2.4 once i can find someone to tune the fcon V ecu..

my car made 220rwkw on 10psi and insanely rich afr's with the k27 but its way too laggy for a street car (full boost at 4.8k). basically useless in the hills unless your on gorge road (open mid speed corners).

:blink:

Hi guys i live up here in darwin (bloody hot) ive got a rb20det in my s13

ive got: GT25-40

550cc rx-7 injectors

microtech ltx-8

gtr fuel pump

shitty stock supra front mount

press bent intercooler piping...(dodgy)

3" exauhst with trust 4"tip

currently running on 12psi it made 209.7rwkw (indarwin and yet to be tuned)

i just blew the motor up about 1 month ago and now ive got HKS cams tomei head gasket 700X350X100 Trust FMIC and im looking for a forge kit but cant find ne thing for the rb20 should be making 250+ once i get it running properly, only prob is i cant run too much boost up here because of the heat.. :)

Also my best time at the street meet was [email protected] track temp was 34degrees on the night! on street tyres :)

dude,

Tomei in japan make forged pistons for the RB20DET, although to suit over-bored application, check it out;

The GT2535 would probably quite a very nice street RB24DET.

i just feel that the turbine wheel in the gt2535 is too small for any engine that has a capacity of > 2.2L.

it would choke power up top given they run larger compressor wheels.

just my 2c

RS500,

It does no doubt choke up top end but thats exactly why I think it would be awesome for the street. Lots of mid range torque, there's nothing worse on the street than having to ring the crap out of it to zip up the inside lane or to overtake. It really depends what your used to, I'm used to big lazy v8's and old lazy 6's with lots of low and mid range torque.

Seeing how the GT2535 works on the rb25det's makes me think it would most definitely work very well with the rb24.

you make a good point cubes, although by running a turbo like the garrett gt3071R, the larger turbine wheel will bring the smaller comp wheel into efficiency earlier without the lag experienced with a turbo like the HKS GT2540 for example.

less back pressure in the exhaust housing would allow the turbine to come onto boost earlier than normal inturn producing more mid range torque, plus the fact that it doesn't have to spin up a massive comp wheel at the front.

no love for the RB20 here (sorry again Roy).

Blitz front mount

A'PEXi pod

3" turbo back w/ hi flow cat

upgraded fuel pump

running 12psi got me a massive 138rwkw....RB25 here we come :)

arent R32 GTST and GTS4 meant to be 165 kw stock ? how can ur power be so low ?

165 at the flywheel, about 110-120 at the wheels so hes doing better then stock. The old redtops rated at 140 only made 95-100atw in stock form, slower then a rb30e.

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
