I've always liked the xr6 turbo BUT there is a trade off... my mate made 390kw with his and blew many transmissions, diffs and uni joints. What a torque monster though

Drop that donk in a gtr (only if) = win :)

The BF and FG will make >400rwkw with the stock turbo, exhaust, diff and gearbox all day everyday, the BAs won't handle more than 250 before blowing both of them up though.

Haha, I to thought about putting the Barra motor in a GTR and the adaptor plate wasn't really an issue, the hieght of the 4.0 on the otherhand with the 4WD sump will pose a few issues :(

You would definitely need a massive bonnet bulge to fit it in, quite a tall motor.

I made 300kw in my BA when everything was pretty much standard. Gearbox and diff lasted less than a month haha. I guess that's what you get with 1000 odd NM.

PS: An FG XR6 won't make 400kw with a standard turbo but the F6 will.

Racepace built rb26

PTE 6262 twin scroll setup

6boost manifold

Stock cams

Id1000's

E85 + twin intank Walbro's

Power FC

This was on 23psi

probably a bit more boost in her too

Do you have an RPM graph for the X axis?

would love see what rpm boost and power is made

Good thread revival Buraz!

How did u squeeze 2 intank walbros? Do u have 32,33 or 34?

It's an R33 Gtr, Racepace did all the fab work and all the fuel setup. I couldn't exactly tell you what adapters etc they used, i didn't see it all while outside the car. I know they made it all in house and there was lots of work involved.

probably a bit more boost in her too

This is the only graph I have!!

Probably is but didn't want to push it, engine has lots of track days and kms on it since rebuild I just wanna keep it safe until I have it freshened up.

Even with a Nitto 3.2 I could not make it :no:

But have not given up just yet :unsure: this was 98 pump

Going to upgrade the fuel line and exhaust. Do a flex tune , should make it on 98 and then see what E85 does to the Graph ????

What AFMs are you using there?

everyone in this thread good at changing boxes?

I'm up to 4 broken after doing 2 in a weekend at Racewars not long ago

So far I've stripped 3rd gear twice, sheared the input shaft once and the latest appears to be a broken reverse/5th selector fork.

In saying that they only ever break when no mechanical sympathy is shown, if you are gentle and select the gear and the roll off the clutch they seem to be fine (as oppose to smashing through gears and kicking clutches)

make well over 400 man.

make well over 400 man.

Apart from the problems I have had since the build it goes pretty quick now , very linear. Feels great on corners, no surprises/

It will be interesting to see how a bigger Dump and Cat makes it respond and what it adds to the overall performance :/

It will make a more then noticeable difference pete

Hi Joey, hope your right, hate wasting money.

There seems to be 2 different opinions on this subject but I am going with what you blokes have told me from your experience as I like first hand feedback not from books:)

    • Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
    • After drying a few days, time to put her back together 
    • The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
