Guys, I've spoken to a friend tha turboed his NA recently - he said do not do it, not as compatiable as a Turbo version as it was built, tuned for Turbo - is this true? My poor little brother finally got his car today - he's over the moon and will join SAU soon... the poor guy is already saving every penny for the big day.... damn it, us guys and our turbos...

seriously

I'VE DONE IT.

RECENTLY

like, i only finished it completely lastnight

it's f**king great you would have to be GAY not to admire people who go down this route of turbo charged NA engines...

the engines are both the same except for the compression, someone's selling a complete turbo KIT from start to finish for like 1 and a half grand, get him to work his butt off, take two weeks off work and get him to start working he's capable surely

Hey fella

Ive just got my RB20DE + T back from the workshop recently and its running a TO4E turbo with microtech lt12s ecu..the car is awesome to say the least...its ultra responsive and it pulls ultra hard..my NA Rb20 when compression tested all had around 190 to 200 compression reading and im running 12psi...producing 306.9hp..my friend who has a similar setup but with a turbo RB20 motor..is gettin 369ish hp...tho its lesser peak power..but its producing more power down low in the RPM range..so when i do give him a run...i always manage to beat him...the only difference between the NA and Turbo Rb20 is the compression...different profile cams...no oil squirters...and the crank pulley section for power steering is 4 ribbed instead of 6 ribbed...spark plugs also needs to be changed to turbo version as well as injectors..altho CA18 injectors r a lot better or go aftermarket..my 2 cents

    • Ultimately, if the tip is not far into the runner and the o-ring seals, then you are in business. Have you applied pressure to it as is? It is not really a problem for the injector to twist once it is bolted down, the oring seals it and you don't want it jambed into the oring too hard The plenum is intended to take multiple size lower injectors with different adapters, but the way you have it is fine if they seal.
    • Are these the Dmax ones you are in reference too? https://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35#description Not a bad idea to get the uni flange ones. I have sent just jap an email too. Will see what they say lmao. Only thing is the Dmax ones are on a big back order. Low key anything will be better then my OEM ones I got as they are sounding like popcorn when I go under load lmao 😂☠️🪦.
    • They should do. I have S14 (or something S chassis, anyway) driveshafts in my R32 (because my diff flanges have 3x2). They're the right length. When you go looking for R32/3/4 driveshafts (for turbos), they're all the same thing, so are the same length. So there really shouldn't be any reason why those cheapies from JJ won't also fit an R34. R32/3 NA should also be the same thing. The (3x the price) D-Max ones are uni-fit. They have 5x1 and 3x2 bolt holes and say they cover all the cars. So that would also suggest that they are all the same except for the flanges. And in that case, the flange goes both ways. I'd be buying the D-Max ones if I ever have to replace a shaft. Because that will open up diff options without needing to juggle shafts also. Juggling shafts is gay.
    • Yeah with the adaptors they do look like the photo above - just the fitment within the plenum itself and then further with the rail to the intake is questionable - we shall see tomorrow hopefully once I get some replies from Aeroflow, maybe those bosses are the missing piece....
    • Should be fine, if you have it sitting too far in, you end up just spraying the walls and have shit idle. You "can" run them like that, however I don't think it's a great idea (also depends on your plenum, might be good to just get the injector bosses first, mock it up and see if you need to get the bottom extension) Ideally your injectors, with the extension should look like this  (Not my photos, just Google)
