I am using the jaycar one with the factory solenoid.

Ive had a play around with it, and it seems to be working better now. In relation to boost, I get full boost at something like 6 grand in 2nd

In relation 4th gear, I think i hit full boost 130/140 km/hr - wasnt watching the tachometer

Had absolutely no idea what i was doing, where i was going, etc.

Hehe .... it's a bit like that the first time out isn't it !

Well done on your first trip anyhow ... next time you won't have as many nerves as you're sitting on the line about to launch, thinking of all the people watching you! :blink:

Cheers guys

Okay, in answer to your question, kabab, I think its something like 0.8 bar at 4000 rpm in 3rd

Forgot to check 3000 rpm in 3rd, but im guessing it would be around the 0.3 bar mark ?

I'm runnin GARRETT GT2560R's, also known as the GT2860R's. These are Garrett replacements to the Nissan R34 N1 turbos. They are 'apparently' rated at 320hp. There are no flow maps on the garrett website, 'yet'

Jim is a pretty good tuner. The a/f ratio is so damn straight, its almost unbelievable

Big difference in spool times there.

Do you have a built engine kabab?

The gt-ss are rated at 280hp arent they? While these are 320 hp. That would make a fair bit of difference. But hell, I can understand how responsive the SS's must be :(

Hks gtss's are rated @ 320ps just check here .

I dont know about .8 bar at 3000 on a stock engine but i get full boost at 3800 in 5th gear in my stock engine .

They dont have the top end that my old N1's had though .

You can keep your stock afms with the gtss's Kris unless you want to run huge boost ( above 1.2 bar ) .

I gotta say, it's a bit of a waste to use GT-SS's if you're only going to run 1.2 bar. They won't make much more than stock turbos at that boost level.

    • 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?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
