Where are the purple covers you did? -

That A-LSD diff belongs in the bin. It really does. -

Being a V-spec, it isn't just buy a diff centre and chuck it in. You need a Non V-spec diff housing and possibly the shafts, I know I did. A mate from WA went from a Nismo GT pro to a Quaife rear and he prefers the Quaife. -
Educated Guess At The Final Tune Results

Opening scene he says "low mount twins vs similar sized single". So do the twins need to be high mounted to be fair? -
Educated Guess At The Final Tune Results
Piggaz replied to Nismo 3.2ish's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
There is RND in twins There is no difference between GTX 3582R and a GT3582 compared to say a GTX 2860 to a -5. Same rear turbine, only difference is the front fan in both setups. I'm 100% certain a -7 would come on earlier than a GTX 60mm but you know yourself it wouldn't get close to 400 kW, let alone 450. So the smallest aftermarket factory position turbos against a 450 kW single. Matched everywhere, gates are making a nusiense at just over 4000 but go onto make 450 plus on a stock engine. I don't give a fook, you know what's on my car but I can't see the inaccuracies in this when I couldn't tell you what low mount twins to put on to do 450 plus and be "on" by very early 4K would be on a very basic 2.6. -

Different engine config.How long does the exhaust manifold have to be on an R35 to run a single? How would you route that disaster? -

But that's the thing. FACTORY position twins vs a single. The only twin system out there that's "high" mount is the EFR twins that will run the factory front pipes. Intake is a no go. Twin high mount 2835's with external gates won't come on early like that on a 2.6 for example. What's else is there? Matty from wa went from -5's to an 8374 on a 3.0. Made more grunt everywhere, on 5-700 rpm earlier and fell onto boost in 1/3rd the time according to his motec. 63's according to simon come on 100rpm earlier. Still missing 400 rpm at best. -

So what would be a fair comparison? In your opinion? I still can't see a factory low mount twin setup cracking 19-20 psi on a 2.6 with shitty 260 poncams at 4000 ish and go on to make 460 kW. RS's won't do it -5's won't do it 63 mm GTX's which come on 100 rpm earlier than -5's (on a 2.8) won't do it. 60 mm GTX's MAY do it but I haven't seen a result. I agree it should have been done between GTX 60's, but do you honestly think they will do their thing so early on a basic 2.6? They struggle to push stock turbos at 4000 (unless you have your cam timing) -

Mick, If you want to run twins in their factory format, what does it matter if the single has "custom piping"? Of course it's custom, it's not factory. If you choose to run factory position low mounts you can't hold that against the single setup. That's your choice, unless you pay for custom work. -

Whatever a 2.6L can do, a larger one can do that and better. -

Twins vs single? He has a single already. -

Would need a 6266 at a minimum. No bigger split turbine housings available -
Trent, do you think the gain would be because you're relieving some of the gas from the already turbine housings? I know Matt Femino made his own exhaust manifolds for the twins and found it "felt" a lot better despite the dyno reading exactly the same. IIRC. They were not externally gated though.

Bnr34 V-spec Handling Upgrade...
Piggaz replied to Ares180BPM's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
It's such a case of not knowing what you DONT have until you drive something that's sorted. I've lost the amount of times I keep banging on about diff's, especially the front for GTR's. They're not 4WD, they're 2.5 or 3 WD at best on comparison. -
Everything you need has been posted on here many times. Injectors are too small So is exhaust You'll need a different ECU to run the flex fuel gear What clutch have you got? You MAY need to upgrade that if you're really turning the wick up. Oil pump Water pump Gasket kit Head service at the minimum Head studs Main studs What will you be doing with the sump? And don't forget a real front diff!!!

-7 housings with -5 wheels I believe, Pete.

Many arguments will be had over that video!

Nismo Vs Quaife Front Lsd R32 Gtr
Piggaz replied to Hattori Hanzo 69's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
You swap out a few non friction plates for friction ones I believe. Ash might know the specifics of it. More front drive! -
Same turbine I believe. 2540's, RS's, 2530's and -5's have all the same rear wheel.

Nismo Vs Quaife Front Lsd R32 Gtr
Piggaz replied to Hattori Hanzo 69's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
I still have the NISMO GT Pro in the rear of mine Ash. It's currently set at Medium which I feel is too much. I know you Racepace guys set it to soft and play around with the plates also? When the box is going in, I'll back the rear off. The extra friction plates in the transfer case will be getting done at the same time. -

Don't expect a lot from a stocker Pete. You'll get out and wonder what all the fuss is about after being 'spoilt' with your own car -
