Yes, I have searched - but didn't find exactly all the stuff I wanted to know. So:

1) What is (more or less) max boost for standard RB20 Turbo ?

2) Will R33 FMIC piping work with RB20 or is the pipework different orientation ?

3) Is the front/dump pipe of an R32 same as an R33 ?

4) Is the R32 4door exhaust (cat back) the same length and orientation as a 2 door version ?

5) Is the GTS-4 suspension (front and rear) same as a GTS-t or GTR or neither ?

6) Can you disable front wheel drive ina GTS-4 same as GTR (by pulling a fuse , which one)

7) Will adjustable exhaust cam gear give same benefits as RB25DET at 4 deg retard ?

8) Is the exhaust cam gear same as RB25DET ?

9) Is the AFM in RB20DET same as RB25DET - and will Z32 AFM help with increased resolution ?

10) Is it worthwhile getting RB20 turbo hiflowed with new (steel) wheels ? At what cost ? Or is it simply better/less cost to get a 2nd hand HKS 2430

11) Is the RB20DET and RB25DET exhaust manifold the same ?

12) Is mounting a FMIC on the R32 similar to the R33 ? Do you need to shave the front bar ?

13) What can max power the GTS-4 gearbox handle ?

14) Does GTS-4 come with LSD at the rear ?

15) Is the rear diff same as a GTR (ie R200) ie if I found an R200 locker would it bolt up ?

16) Who does R32 ECU re-chips / how much ? Is it better to just get an SAFC / Fuel Controller ? I know this doesn't adjust timing - but was thinking the cam gear could take care of this for moderate power. (AP Eng PFC too expensive for an R32 - bad cost/benefit for the value of the car)

17) With GTS-4 do the same tyre width on all 4 wheels apply - like GTR ?

18) What is safe power (rwkw) for standard internals ?

19) What sort of brakes are on the front of a GTS-4 , I think 2 pot - Will the R33 4 pots bolt on ? What size discs ?

Sorry for all the questions , some might be rudimentary I guess....

Thanks in advance Roy - for your help on these (as I know you will know all the answers - he he)

1) What is (more or less) max boost for standard RB20 Turbo ? - 14psi

2) Will R33 FMIC piping work with RB20 or is the pipework different orientation ? - drivers side return pipe is different

4) Is the R32 4door exhaust (cat back) the same length and orientation as a 2 door version ?- 4 door is slightly longer

5) Is the GTS-4 suspension (front and rear) same as a GTS-t or GTR or neither ?-gtr i believe

8) Is the exhaust cam gear same as RB25DET ?-yes, inlet adj. cam gears are good as there is no vvt i think....?

9) Is the AFM in RB20DET same as RB25DET - and will Z32 AFM help with increased resolution ?-cubes is using a series 1 r33 i believe, and a z32 can be used as well...

10) Is it worthwhile getting RB20 turbo hiflowed with new (steel) wheels ? At what cost ? Or is it simply better/less cost to get a 2nd hand HKS 2430-previous owner of my car had this done, and it cost roughly $1100. It just made ~218rwkw @ 1.1bar recently on a tune

11) Is the RB20DET and RB25DET exhaust manifold the same ?- yes

12) Is mounting a FMIC on the R32 similar to the R33 ? Do you need to shave the front bar ? - yes

16) Who does R32 ECU re-chips / how much ?- Dr Drift...on these forums

I hope i got most of those right :cheers:

3) Pretty certain they are the same.

5) Same as GT-R

6) Yes

13) I'm running 180 Awkw through the stock gearbox

14) Viscous LSD, I believe

17) YES

19) 4-spotters front, 2-spots rear, probably the same as R33. A set of slotted rotors doesn't hurt.

    • Oof. One of my mates has an R34 GT-R that he initially was a "I want to go twins for response and convenience" on his stock 2.6 with Kelford 272 cams, but his friends are pests and were always in his ear about their place being in the bin.   Eventually one of the 2860-5s decided to add it's own input and force his hand, so he conceded and went for a Pulsar 6262G ("G35 900") with T4 0.85 hotside.    Here's an overlay of the results, same cams, same stock bottom end, same boost, same fuel, just from a pretty tidy 2860-5 install to a Pulsar turbo on a 6boost maniifold on BP98.   Worth mentioning here, it may seem like a dead horse thing but the dyno plot doesn't tell the story of how much better it is to drive - transient response has completely changed the car, he used to have flat foot shifting to stop it having to wind up again on gear changes even at >7000rpm... now it builds boost faster than that even short shifting.   It's 100% transformed the car before you even consider how much better it holds on: Pulsar and Garrett aren't the same, but from our experience if you're just looking for a better drive and the ability to make the same or more power I think the divided G30 770 would probably be the smallest I'd go to.
    • Great work Duncan, any events local you will give it a test once all done? 
    • Sweet, yeah hoping stock gears will hold up. May use the transbrake feature on hill climb starts so that will test it.
    • Yeah, the thread is only nearly 20 years old.
    • Been down in Tassie for 2 weeks (a cruise, not a race for once) but spent a little time on her when I got back. I worked out the injector settings in the PowerFC were not correct for nismo 555s, set those to 66% +10ms and added a little air at closed throttle, set the timing (approximately, because it has some weird non 15o cells around idle) and now she starts and idles properly. She purrs like a kitten (ignore the co2 alarm in the background, I did  ) 20250518_171052.mp4 Next step, off for run-in, tuning and alignment!
