Can I just make a point here, firslty, if you want a laggy turbo on an rb20 then you got to enter your corner pretty hard cause you wont be able to spin it up fast enough on a slow entry, unless you pop the clutch. So I recon the bigger the turbo the harder the entry and also you dont have the car on full throttle all the way through the drift, so you only really running about 60-80% on the throttle. I recon your better suited to something a little smaller rather than bigger on the rb20.

waldo, all due respect but i think you are going about this the wrong way. for a nice quick driftable car something like an HKS 2530 will be perfect for you. 180 to 200 rwkw is plenty for fun in a GTST and will give you great throttle response (well better than the trust kit). Don't get me wrong, the trust kit is great but i don't think it's well suited to your purpose.

2530 is great on an rb20.

around easter creek i can hold 3rd thru some of the corners where u can use 2nd instead and it picks up really well, its getting 0.5bar @ 3000rpm and 1 bar at ~3600rpm which i think is don and 1.25bar @ ~4000rpm

roys setup is making a much nicer top end

What lap time are you running around Eastern Creek and on what rubber??? (This is Roy, co9uldnt be bothered logging out and in :) ) I did notice at Eastern with the TD06 i did struggle on Turn 7 :)

Hey Roy, is this the same one you are using, its from nengun for about 2 grand. Also do you no what the specs are? Do you think the turbo is at its limit on your car or do you think it still has some left, thanks.

Just curious what it would compare to in the garret gt range.

Type TD-06S , Compression Housing 20G, Exhaust Housing 8.0cm2

try asking James on NS about trying to drift his 4 door 32 wt td06 25g (he bought the kit of the guy in the hpi write up) from what he has said to me its lag city

It all depends on the track your going to be drifiting my 2530 makes my life hard going around Port G as its such a small track.

On a track like Mallala I'd probably be very happy with the 2530

just remember to do lots of limiter clutch dumps works for me

well i drift at queensland raceway and it has to be one of the fastest tracks in aussie... it doesnt have tight corners anywhere really they are really long high speed turns. So it should probably suit this track as it would be better to have a really nice top end power band than low down.

heres some more pics of mine...im not sure wat the trims are on these but its a 20g housing.

TD=mhi turbo

06=turbine WHEEL

20g=comp WHEEL

L=SUPER BACK comp wheel

s=flat back comp wheel

h=large turbine

exhaust housing you already know the sizing

comp housing is the big long part no. on the front of it

cheeres :O

td06=mad turbo; so very underated :D

cheers for that info mate.....does anybody know wat size the oil fiting is for the oil feed for these jigas..also because the stock turbo has oil + water lines and i only need oil ones...wat do i do with the existing water lines..do i just bung the holes in the block or do i get a hose made up to link both holes? i just want to get all the oil and water lines done soon.

cheers

Waldo, looking at the rear housing on that turbo, i wouldnt even bother putting it on the car...any money spent plumbing that bad boy up would be dead money. Run Straight out and buy an external gate exhaust housing for it...looking at that rear housing m not surprised that the T3 flanged TD06s dont make the power they should.

Of course i could be very, very , very wrong, but i flat out dont like howthe turbine and wastegate is set up, turbulence / back pressure city which means cant run as much ignition, combustion chambers full of already combusted air, and poor flow....

1400r, as others have siad in this post, the 20G and 25G are two very different turbos

And grim32; Type TD-06S , Compression Housing 20G, Exhaust Housing 8.0cm2... Sounds similar, but i think mine is the TD06L2-20G, cant be sure though as it came off a twin GTR kit

i was sorta thinking that with this type of exhuast housing it shouldnt effect the spool up much...as ill be running an electronic boost controller...and the wastegate will stay completely shut until its on full boost anyways...which it shouldnt affect spool up time but might cause it to struggle a bit when on full boost. i was under the impression that the wastegate stays completely shut until u hit full boost (with the use of an ebc). am i right or completely wrong lol.

I look at where you bolt your dump pipe to, and i see a large cavity, full of square edges. The when the thing finally hits the boost you want to run, the little wastegate flap opens and the air runs straight into a wall, then has to blend with the exhaust gases coming off the turbine which are already free to bounce around in the cavity before the dump pipe.

I hope Trust/Greddy no more then me, and it may work just fine. Are you sure thats a genuine Trust/Greddy housing on the turbo?

    • oh they were with that motor, you need to remove the engine to change the spark plugs (don't have to, but it does make it easier)
    • I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly
    • I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.
    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
