I got an r 33 GTR with a built motor and same turbos and im pushing 366 kw at all fours on 22 psi and pump fuel. My car makes 308 kw at 5600 rpm id post the dyno sheet but dont know how

What cams are you running GTR97 ? :P

On a more advanced engine e.g Fully rebuilt , cams/head work and tune the lagg can be taken care of through playing with cam timing , while still not loosing any of the mid range top end punch these puppies deliver.Just take it to a tuner who knows the fine tuning insides and outs of the RB26 and you will be very rewarded.Should be able to see full boost 22 -24 psi at 4500 rpm or just under but they will start pulling hard much lower than this so are still a very streetable turbo set up.

Alot of the gtr forums I visit from around the world rate these huffers above 2530s for there response and big delivery of power in the top end.

On a fairly stock engine Id put a gtss or the 2860R -7 turbo upgrade ahead of these unless of course you are taking it further down the track,these are purfect for a hard tuned street machine.

On a fully worked engine these turbs are good for 380 - 410 awkws

Just my opinion though. :(

Exactly my thoughts there, ive got a full engine rebuild in mind for the near future and im hoping to achieve just what u mentioned. :P

Have a compare & contrast between the compressor maps for the -5 & the -7. Given the small difference in size & the marked difference in efficiencies why would you choose the -7? Admittedly at 30#'s airflow on the -5's you will be looking at a 600+hp engine, but this isn't off the planet surely?

    • Just be warned that that turbo will not be a direct re-fit to the car. The exhaust housing is, of course, in the same place. It has to be - it's bolted to the exhaust manifold. So the dump will fit up. But the centre housing is not as long, so the comp housing will move backwards. This will affect both the turbo inlet and the outlet. There is fab work that needs to be done. Yes. it has one, it should have one. Paper gasket.
    • I only recently purchased the vehicle, it came with the flex setup but the current tune is e85 only, which is why im wanting to get the tune redone to enable a mixture.  First i need to get the exhaust redone tho. I was thinking of getting a varex muffler but it sems they dont fit well in the 33 (hang low because of the valve mechanism which sticks out on top) and generally dont sound good. So that leaves me with redoing the entire exhaust (more resonators and mufflers) so its not a menace when i come and go from home, and then have the aes dump valve somewhere along the line to really open it up. I was thinking of having it before the cat but after seeing how insanely loud it will be (on a vl turbo) im thinking of putting it more towards the rear of the car, after one of the resonators. 
    • At this point I'm just 'hoping' it's the turbo seals. I did speak to someone who said it's normal for these turbos to have a bit of axial play? Not gonna lie I've never checked a turbo for axial play before but you could hear it tapping a bit as I moved it back and forth. Surely that's too much? My theory is (could be completely wrong), bad axial play, worn bearings, bad seals, oil into dump/compressor side, burns in exhaust = blue smoke. On a timing belt related note, my crank pulley was missing that front plate that sits in front of the timing belt. It's that metal round plate. It did have the rear one, and the woodruff keys are in the crank which was nice. Can anyone confirm if the NEO det engine has a front plate, im sure it would to protect the front of the timing belt or something. Water pumps...the pump I got was an NPW (yes grill me if I should've got a genuine one lol). It has a smooth mating surface, kit came with a pretty pathetic looking paper gasket. Do I need to use any RTV or just trust the gasket will work because its a smooth mating surface? Cheers legends have a good Easter break!
    • Cheers man, I thought the same.   Bit of an update on it all. It was definitely blue smoke, not grey after all. It didn't really smell oily but it was blue after all. Also puffing just the smallest amount on idle with no throttle.   I ended up pulling the intake and exhaust off and there was around 3mm of axial play on the turbo shaft. So I figured we'll that's buggered and sent it off to get hi-flowed at hypergear. Haven't got it back yet.   I haven't compression tested it yet. Had a look in the cylinder and cylinder 1 spark plug, looked a bit sooty but not oily. Then I've just started doing my timing belt because it's age is unknown.
    • In that case it is probably stock. It lives in the navigator side footwell behind the plastic trim just in front of the a pillar.
