I'm not after a turbo ATM but found this pic on my PC which might help some of you guys trying to figure out what you want. Obviously there are many factors other than a power target that will dictate what you want but hopefully this will help anyway :P

Daniel,

What can your guy do for my stock GTR R32 turbos? I'm only looking for a bit more out of them (maybe 210-230kw atw) with reliability. What cost for rebuild with steel wheels, and what cost for hiflow etc? What do you recommend?

I am getting a price for you on a special turbo available now as a direct bolt on replacement for the GTR's. I asked him today and he will hopefully reply to me tomorrow. Like I said...direct bolt on, so everything just goes back where it came off. They are both twin ball bearing and rated at 300hp each. Highflows are gonna cost you $1400-$1800 depending on condition of turbos and how tough you want them. I dare say these other BB turbos will be around the $1700 mark but I will confirm tomorrow when he calls me.

do you have the garrett gt2871r in stock or turbo equivalent to this??

I asked him today about this and he is looking for me tomorrow. He thought that turbo was the same as the GT28R which is $1400. I asked him to do some more research on this one to find out what the go is. I will let you know when I do.

I believe there 2 different turbos.

Very interested if you can get them.

Thanks

NFI:confused:

Totally different turbos. The gt30 does not come in an internal gate. That combo was a GCG combo using the standard skyline exhaust housing . This combo has been proven to be very unreliable. The only other way to do it is to buy the HKS ex housing which is very pricey. The GT35/40 rated at 700hp is internal gate but only come in a 1.06 ex housing A/R at that rating. HP in a box do a 0.63 but it is not rated at 700, I think it is closer to 500-550hp.

I have done a highflow for Syphon and a GT35R for Skyrine-Dave.

I officially have no hair left!

I also want to know is the GT30 with internal gate 0.63 comparable to say a HKS2830...or do I have NFI...
No F@#%in Idea

I was looking at the horsepowerinabox one with the internal gate

I am REALLY after a direct bolt on similar to the HKS2835 I think...or maybe the HKS2830 (I may have these wrong as I have NFI...)

Sorry, I just read my last post and realized how rude I must have sounded. I didn't mean you had NFI and appologise for coming across like that. Ummm...what car is this going onto Bob. The reason I ask is because the HKS 2835 comes in T3 or T2 flange but the garrett equivalent only comes in T2.

You would probably want something like the aforementioned GT3071. It is internal gate and rated at 400-450hp, T3 flange. I am currently trying to find out how much it would cost to highflow this turbo by Garrett as this would place it well into the 500hp mark and make it a good int gate bolt on comparable to the GT30R.

Dan, you weren't rude bro...I HAVE NFI...there is no much contradicting info re turbo's that I am just over it...I know what I want.

I want a turbo that will have good response for street and occassional strip, probably a 0.63 rear housing, internal gate, bolt on no changes to any lines as they are all new...

Car is a R33GTST, rebuilt...only want to run a MAX of 14psi when i get an PFC and front mount and larger fuel pump.

So that means T3 flange, I have seen good results from the HKS 2830 from some people, but the efficiency curve according to my calcs in better suited to an RB20, where as the 2835 is better suited to the 25...

What is 400-450 in kw...I don't want a monster that comes on boost hard I want something reasonably responsive which aint gonna happen with a 1.06 rear housing...

That 35/40 with the 1.06 housing was actually designed and flowed to be on a 2 litre 6 cylinder engine. They reckon it should come on boost at 3200-3500 depending on whether you have the 2 or 2.5 L. I don't know how true this is and I don't want anyone to be a guinea pig for it. I would rather just ask someone who has already got one on.

As for direct bolt on, you have three options...these are:

1: Highflow

2: HKS

3: Buy a different car

HKS and Greddy and companies like that are the only ones that have made the direct bolt on stuff for Skylines in the smaller stuff with internal gate unfortunately....you might be better off waiting until they bring out their T3 range. Even then though...anything Ball bearing will have different fittings for the water and oil lines so that rules all of them out.

    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
