Here is my situation,

I have an R32 GTS-T Currently running the following:

RB20DET (Internally Standard)

Microtech Computer

Profec B Boost Control

GTR Injectors

500hp Fuel Pump and Fuel Reg

FMIC

GT-28 w/gti-r exhaust housing

Exhaust and all the normal stuff

My engine is healthy as far as i know and am wondering how my RB20 would push a turbo of this size. Obviously i would have to high mount the turbo and prolly flow the heads a bit, but does anyone know how this would drive or how to make it more driveable? Its just i have a guy with a new T70 thats too big for his car and he wants to swap me....

Any help would be good, ppl with this setup would be unreal.

Thanks,

Matt

They are about a 800-850 hp turbo, so on a std RB20 with std g'box i think you will find you will be struggling to make any power with the thing.

RB20s can handle decent sized turbos whilst still being reasonably responsive. Depending on what you want from the car and what you can afford, id say get a 2835, or even a 3037 with a small exhaust housing if you want to be a little more adventurous on the std bottom end:)

Can i ask what power you are making with the GT28, any specs on the turbo?

LOL...thats cool, and easy to fix.

What size tyres do you have? For example if your rears are 235/45/17s, and your run was in 3rd gear then...

3,500rpm , 73km/h

4,000rpm , 83km/h

4,500rpm , 93km/h

5,000rpm , 103km/h

5,500rpm , 113km/h

6,000rpm , 124km/h

6,500rpm , 134km/h

7,000rpm , 145km/h

7,500rpm , 155km/h

So assuming you are running 17" wheels, then thats roughly 14psi @ approx 5200rpm?!?!?! Seat of the pants does that sound about right?

If your running 16" or 18" wheels these speeds will be different:(

Dude, it will work fine. Just your going to be spending more on brakes :( You gota get that sucka to spool somehow. Best way, STAND and I do mean STAND on the brakes and the go go pedal at the same time should make boost :(

But, I do think its too big unless your going to go crazy on set up to get it to come on boost.

Would the T70 even make decent boost (1bar) before 7000rpm on the rb20???  

 

Serious question, not buggering around. :(

Maybe... Serious tho 3rd gear, stand on the brakes, it works.

My mates gemini with effectivly a t60 on it, and its a 2L 6cyl, if he stands on both pedals, it makes about 20psi by 4000rpm :( Wont make anymore, the brakes let go after that. Its funny as.

Would the T70 even make decent boost (1bar) before 7000rpm on the rb20???  

 

Serious question, not buggering around. :(

Depends what T70 we are talking about? The Ebay one? Or a somthing else?

My mates ca18det with the ebay T70 kit is making 260rwhp @ around the 7000rpm mark with 1bar. So one would asume a rb20det is up to the task.

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
