what i would like to know is the specs on this turbo

and how it would perform on a rb20 if possible as they told me the r33 and 32 hiflows differ

or even when it hits full boost..??

called GCG and supposedly they didnt know specs!?!?

thanks

We had a GCG ball bearing high flow on an RB20DET (170,000 ks' old), made 225 rwkw at 1.3 bar with 1 bar at 3,000 rpm, no boost drop off till 7,500 rpm, made good power to 8,250 rpm. Highly recommended.

:P cheers :)

yes but the RB20 and RB25 compressor housings are going to perform differently.

so if you use an RB20 turbo instead of an rb25 to start with you will have boost earlier but peak earlier...

Correct, but the difference is not dramatic, I don't think it would be more than 250 rpm later to 1 bar with the R33/RB25 turbo. The R34/VG30 turbine covers wouldn't be my choice, another 500 rpm or so I reckon.

:D cheers :D

what were the other support mods?

well, ill let you know how i go early january when i finish my tune

mods:-

- full 3" exhaust

- walbro fuel pump

- gtr injectors

- Z32 AFM

- remapped ECU

- FMIC

- bleed valve

- K&N pod

and adding the gcg stage 1 high flow within the next 2 weeks

what were the other support mods?

Let me think;

POD, heat shield, substantial air feed

Performance metalcraft split dump

3.25" Nismo exhaust

No cat

OS Giken twin plate with flywheel

No HICAS

No aircon

Electric fan

Power FC with BCK

Castrol 10W60 oil

Oil cooler

Optimax

NGK copper plugs

One full day tuning on the dyno (plenty of time spent around the boost build rpm)

All on a 170,000 k's old RB20DET, that showed OK leak down figures for its age

:( cheers :P

i only made 254 hp at the wheels with stage 2 r33 hiflow turbo. This was on an auto r32 mods:

pod

3inch exhaust no cat

FMIC

z32 AFM

gtr injector 040 fuel pump

Have had the standard computer chiped (Romed)

Oh and mine is very laggy

i almost made that power with just an rb25 turbo..

get your car looked at i think

I agree.. i have an auto r32 with rb25 highflow (not gcg however) and checked today the revs vs boost, and its making 12psi (tubotech controller) by 3800rpm.. without any proper tune. No idea of power at the moment.

Tune coming tuesday for some figures.

    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me  
    • That's my life. Past-Duncan has a lot to answer for
    • Yep four point harness. Mounted to a bolted in brace running behind the seats. Dont use it for daily driving tbh but good to have for when its needed plus it looks cool.
    • I had to double check the thread title r34 gtt offset advice lol. Thought maybe i posted on the wrong thread. 😂
