Hey guys,

Ive just bought a R34 GTT tiptronic coupe.

i know the basics about the car.

I currently have a S14 Silvia pushing 200rwkw aswell so i am no newbie when it comes to cars.

I am just wanting help in finding inforamtion about the R34 GTT's, could some 1 maybe point me in the right direction.

Such things as, What turbo it has on it? What are the AR ratios? What kinda timing can you run thru them on 10psi with the stock intercooler?

Are they an all alloy head and block?

Do they have a crank gurdle?

etcetc..

I know SR's quite well but am unfamilar with the neo RB25's and general R34 range. I like to know my cars inside and out so any help on othetr threads, FAQ's other sites etc are appreciated

Ive serached the forums a few bit, but only found limited info

THANKS GUYS

I too need some info on this car... I'm looking all over the place for confirmation of the turbo specs. I want to know what it is, T28, T3, hybrid? I'm being told differing things... I know it's got a T3 flange, but I'm told it's a T28... and I found something that said the A/R's were .60 compressor, .40 turbine, which would make it seem unlike any other turbo I've ever run across. Typically they're reverse of that, and the A/R's aren't an even .40 or .60... like .48/.63 or something like that. This is highly unusual to me. Seems based on the housing sizes, it would be a T3 compressor, and a T28 turbine... with the cartridge being a T3 or T28 BB, I'm not sure there either... ;)

I also want to know the trim, and the wheel sizes if anyone knows.

I've also read there's a series 1 and series 2, with the series 1 being the nylon comp wheel, and the series 2 being aluminum? Which really doesn't matter because the only thing I'm not liking about it is the Ceramic turbine wheel.

I've seen pictures on here if a series 2 R34 GTT turbo that was being sold... but it didn't have the A/R's stamped on it... so that didn't help.

I suppose a Part number might help, but then it might not.

I'm putting this on my USDM S14a 2.4L... I think it should make some pretty respectable numbers based on what I've read so far, and it ought to be big enough for the 2.4L but not laggy... my concern is the damn ceramic turbine wheel, and I'd LOVE to replace that wheel with a aluminum or steel wheel. That's another thing I don't know, is that even possible?

Someone help me out... and don't hate me because I'm from the US... I hate Americans too... believe me... I have to live among these morons... if anything, pity me... and help me out.

Thanks,

But yea ive seen alot of that info already.

Just after specifics etc.

Ive heard things like cant run over 10psi thru the stock turbos, cant run over 12psi.

14psi is fine. etcetc... if i know the specs and what they are made out of etc i can make me own judement if you guys follow what im saying lol.

Yeah I've seen all that info too. It was easy to find. The turbo specs I'm after are HARD to find... I hope someone knows, because I'm putting this turbo on my car if it's worth using. So I want to know exactly what I got for my $240 (USD)... Which seems like a deal, but without the specs, it sounds like a turd that can't boost past 11 psi, with wheels that can't be upgraded to be able to handle more boost without breaking...

If that's the truth then... :( time to sell it to an unwitting american ricer with too much money and not enough brains. I'll tell them it's a Skyline R34 BALL BEARING Turbo and sell it for like $600... ;)

Someone give us some positive info. Or tell me it's a turd and I'll sell it right off.

    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
    • Shall we... wake you up when September ends?  
    • I got the Repco video recommended on YouTube.  
    • Welcome Mark. Do you have a Skyline or are you looking to get one?
