Guys / Gals,

I am looking at getting some more power out of the old girl, what sort of Turbos should I be looking at????? I would like maybe a size or two bigger than the T25's / T28's the GTR comes with......Would like the car to remain street mannered, but am looking for more of a track set up than a drag weapon....

Engine Mods are.

N1 Oil Pump

N1 Water Pump

Jun Sump Baffle

HKS Front Pipes

3" Exhaust From Cat Back.

28 Row Oil Cooler

Running .61 Bar

Nismo Clutch

Brakes and Suspension are all taken care of.

I'm running 2530's on mine with decent results .made 370rwhp@4500rpms 1.2bar boost on a 2wd dyno dynamics dyno the other day we didn't go any further cause it showed the car leaning out but this was later to be proved wrong. Willl be replacing the stock dump pipes in the coming week and looking to move up to 1.3 bar . I've traped 115mph with the current setup on a 30deg night will be looking to trap 120mph+ by the middel of the year with the same turbs.

wrxhoon on here has N1 turbo's on his r33 GTR at 1.2bar running PFC (tuned by Ben at Bel performance) stock fuel system and even air box ran 11.7@120mph on a nice cool night last year . The n1's are a good bang for your buck turbo and are pretty easy to come by these days you can't go wrong .

Also like you mentioned for circuit racing and street driving you can't go wrong with either the N1's or 2530's they have the same response as stock turbo's but don't run out of puff up high . If you really want to spend the moneu though you can go for the HKS GT-RS's which are better then both mentioned at everything .

Dont ask here.. everyone has a different expirence and a different car. your just gonna get a thousand different answers.

Find a tuner, speak to them about what you want to do and get them to recomend something in your price range and that will get you the power and response that you want.

HKS GT-SS, R34 N1, GT2530s... They're all much of a muchness. You'll get about 340-360awkw from them all on a safe circuit racing tune. The GT2530s will be about 500rpm laggier than the other two, but make a bit more power.

They're all good choices, and you can't go wrong.

Despite 7heavn's advice, don't go for GT-RS unless you're going to stroke the motor out to 2.8 or 3.0 litres.

I kind of agree with Andrew on the GT-RS thing. The fact that some of the quickest street and open class GTRs around Tsukuba still use 2530s tells me that for a near stock capacity GTR circuit car, they are good shit.

We have a full kit of low klm HKS 2530s coming avail soon, currently on our race car making 405AWKW. This is the full kit (stainless manifolds and dump pipes, wastegate actuators and all inlet and intercooler piping and all bolts pipes and associated equip) let us know if you are interested.

how much do you want for the complet set up?

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
