G'day Mik, so what sort of engine did or do you have these GTRS bolted to? Im looking at just a stock motor with tomei cams bigger injectors...PFC etc...

and what revs are you getting 1 bar boost at?

Stock motor with Tomei drop in cams. On the dyno, 1 bar comes up at about 4650, but target boost comes up VERY fast from there.

ahh ok pete! I didnt know you had R34 N1's I thought they were the garrett equivilent of the HKS 2530?

anyhow Im still searching for a set of N1s or 2530s..... hmmm

I thought these were one in the same BUT i will know for sure when they come off and i will let you know as i am rapped with there around performance and believe these to be one of the best turbos for a street gtr.

Peter, do your turbos run A/R 0.60 comp housings? I'm pretty sure that the turbos that everyone calls "R34 N1" turbos only run .42 housings

I know i have seen a thread on here with links to a site with all the nismo turbo specs on it but i just did a search and was unable to find it.

It showed the spec to the r32n1/r33n1 and the r34n1(ball bearing) and also had a couple nismo specials in there and the R34N1 was the largest a/r ratio turbo with a 0.60compressor and a 0.64 turbine (same as the 2530). Plus a young kid in buno took a shopping list from my car and bought all the same gear (r34n1) and these are 0.60/0.64 same as mine. I will keep trying to find the thread

:)

I'm currently getting my car tuned and I roughly want about the 300rwkw. It has the following:

Nismo R32 turbos - rated at 300ps each

RX7 Series IV Injectors - 550cc

RB20DET A/f meters

Standard fuel pump - (is going to restrict a lot of the power)

HKS Cam Gears

Will let you know how it goes.

Yet everyone raves about 2530s which have similar lag

In my experience, no, they don't. A few facts, we get 1 bar out of the 2530's at under 4,000 rpm on the RB26. The GTRS moving parts (compressor, shaft and turbine) weigh 25% more than the 2530 moving parts. So there is simply no way that they can be as responsive, given all else being equal.

This experience is not unique, the 2 fastest GTR's at Tsukuba again this year where both running 2530's. If the GTRS's where as responsive and made more power, I am sure the unlimited budgets would have funded them.

:D

I've got similar to you and will be looking for about the same power :P

I've got 2530's

Sard 700cc injectors

HKS intank pump

HKS cam gears

PFC + HC

Looking to get a set of RB20/25 AFM's and HKS style split dumps then I can start to assemble it all :D

Blitz...I don't think you can get the 2530KAI in T25 flange for RB26, can you?

There was a rumour that the kai kits were going to becoming available for the GTR, though admittedly I have only seen the KAI version of the 2530 available as a single item so far.

Might have a browse through the goodsmaster later.

I finally got my car tuned yesterday and got some fantastic results. The power I got is 297rwkw with standard fuel pump and a/f meters. I could not believe my eyes nor could my tuner. I did however put 550cc injectors on.

The power curve is just senstational; and the car pulls like a freight train. It is very progressive and goes all the way to 8000rpm.

I'm so pleased with the results that I will get used to the power first and then add a bigger fuel pump and a/f meters later.

I will post up pictures of the power curve very shortly.

Here is the dyno graph for Antz car. I took a pic of them yesterday. The dyno reads 10% and reads 360rwhp = 396rwhp taking into consideration10% loss. This works out to just under 300rwkW and Im sure if we were to run the car on a calibrated dyno that it would read 300rwkW.

    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
    • My experience with Rising Sun Exports Before agreeing to the sale I tried to do as much research as I could (obviously), his Facebook reviews are 98% and he goes Live at least once or twice a week. I contacted 2 people in the UK who had used him for their imports, both had positive feedback. His explanation and talk through of the import process was thorough, answering any query no matter how stupid it was. It felt as soon as the money was sent, communication dropped off. I asked for shipping updates every 2 weeks or so, not wanting to pester him, he never had any updates. I wasn't informed the car had been dropped off at the port, I only found out by his Facebook story. I asked for the photos taken at the port, knowing he would need some for insurance purposes. I received a few 5 second clips and that's it. When asked again, he said his staff had them. Weeks later I asked again, he tells me he doesn't have any, but does have 50 photos from the original advert. I never received them. I eventually got the documents sent via WhatsApp after I mentioned the port was requesting them. I purchased a CarVX report, to find out the vehicle is a Grade R with recorded accident damage, first recorded in 2017 when it was first auctioned. He never told me the grade, then again I didn't ask. His response was "Grade R means nothing, it wasn't chassis damage". Still, I would have liked to have been informed about it. Jon prides himself on being open and honest when it comes to inspecting cars, it's his main job doing so at the auctions for customers. When the vehicle arrived in the UK I noticed a few little cosmetic issues. It's a 21 year old car so it wasn't going to be mint condition. The side skirts are cracked on each corner and the sealant is failing. The front grill on the bonnet/hood isn't secured very well, mounting studs are missing. Both minor things, but again, it would have been nice to be told. During a Facebook Live walk around video of the vehicle, he mentioned it has a front Whiteline anti roll bar/sway bar. While on the inspection ramp, I noticed the stock item has been installed. When first questioned, his response was "the ARB? Switched? Since when, it never had them". Since sending video and photo evidence I've not received a response. I'm probably being over critical of the overall condition of an old car, but all I wanted was honesty (which he claims to have). I'm aware I wasn't his only customer, he's busy doing XYZ but other reviews praise him for great communication with regular updates and photos, I felt I didn't receive the same treatment.
