ive just finnished converting my setup from the trust TD-06 20G with the 16c rear housing, to a garret GT3040R with a .63 rear housing

i also installed hks 264 9.1 cams with adj cam gears

for its first tune it made 346rwhp @22psi, but comes on almost 1000rpm earlier in the rev range! compared to when my car had the 405 hp tune with the td06, it actualy feels alot faster to drive now, this is all on a std head/bottom end

the gt35r will be a bit too big imo as for driveability, my recomendation is the garret gt3040

good luck

haha i would not even contemplate using the 16 rear housing on a rotary.... it is way to big :( not a viable comparison. Fit a 1.0 housing to the GT3040 then it would be a closer comparo ;)

i had the TD05-20g 14 on my rb25 and even it was way to laggy for me here are the recommended sizes;

10 for rb25 and 8 for rb20... 10 on a rb20 if you want high 200's.

I still think the 20G is a great turbo for an RB20. The 2835 woudl be interesting, its just that no one seems to run them.

Re the 20G, i have run up to 20psi and there is no way my thing will ever get near 300rwkws. Even with cams etc? I havent seen that sort of power on a 25 let alone a 20, even with cams etc. Maybe if they were running a larger housing like AD4M is?!?!?!?

CRD do a good deal on them.

If your looking for heaps of power but not really interested in goodpower and more response get the .82 if u want a neck snapping response but with a little under 300kw.. get .63 id only get .82 if i had cams and a fully built engine or a 3L

for some reason it is only the L2 20g that will stretch into the 290-300rwkw range the S 20g wont come close unfortunately. I have customer / good family friend with an evo 6.5 TME (soon to be in hpi) making over 300awkw with a L2-20g (record for l2) on two separate nsw dyno's. and 2 customers with rb20's making 268-274rwkw at only 1.2ish bar. The S-20g tends to fall over at anything above 1.25-1.3bar. i reckon the L2 is like a T67 with 7/10ths the lag :D

I reckon no-one uses the HKS 2835 (0.61 56t) but us... because it is dear and difficult to source.

most of my customers tend to want 250-290rwkw with maximum response in thier sr's and rb's and taking a quick look and talking to many D1 teams it is easy to see why 9 out of the top 10 run greddy 06 or 67 variants because they offer the best balance between response and power and delivery is unique.

For 25 owners (wanting 280rwkw) i will post a T67 (8cm) vs gt3540 comparo that was done today up here 2moro..... very interesting and proves my point that bigger and less boost is backwards thinking. Final result was 10rwkw less up top but 40rwkw more through out the mid and only started to taper off right up top all at 1.15bar versus 1.2 with the 3540. Next test is 10cm housing on the T67 versus 8cm to guge exact response difference and peak power limit of it on a std (internal) rb25. i hazard to guess 320rwkw 1.2-1.3bar and 20rwkw throughout the whole rpm range over the 3540.

So the S 20G makes less power, but what is the trade off? Is the L2 any less responsive? What is the difference in the turbine? Number of blades, the pitch of blades, the diameter of the turbine?

LOL, sorry about all the questions :)

haha no stress, the L2 actually runs a smaller exhaust wheel 61mm compared to the 06S-20g (65mm) but the blade profile is totally differrent. It is the same as a T67. The compressor (front wheel) is identicle on 06S and L2. The L2 is rated to 430ps (which is nearly spot on what we squezed out of the EVO, i cannot match this with any NISSAN engine yet the best i can get is 400ps or just shy of 300kw) with an 8cm the 06S is rated the same but needs a 12cm housing to meet the max therefore becomes laggier. I cannot explain the L2 it is bit of a freak, all i can put it down to is the aggressive pitch and fewer blade setup on the l2.

haha yeah but remmeber you would be in a 31....(hides from wheezy)..... 1.5bar and 4000rpm aint exactly anything to write home about...

from all i know (very little) about the GTS-r (std rated 210 but actually closer to 260) is that 300hp is around the limit and anything above that requires alot of work including high flowing the turbo to GRP A specs, cams and the rods and pistons are known to be the limiting factor also. 260rwkw plus is well beyond what i have ever seen qouted with 220-240rwkw being the norm... even from R31 house in japan.

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
