Have a feel of shaft play, there should be about 1mm side to side and nothing in / out. If that is the case check for lose bits thats bolted to the turbo.

Noticed you are in Melbourne, Call and drop by for a quick inspection when you are free.

Thanks Stao PM coming your way.

Just finished installing my 21U high flow and had it tuned by Trent:

Much happier with the performance of this turbo compared with the OP6 variant I had last time.

As you can see, full boost is achieved by under 3,500rpm and I got 100rwkw at just over 3,000rpm.

My car's clutch began slipping towards the end of the tune, so Trent backed the power off; it could have made 260-270rwkw with more boost.

It's currently making 248rwkw at ~16psi. It feels better than my OP6 did at 20psi and 270rwkw, probably due to the wider spread of power/torque.

Big ups to Stao for this turbo and for putting up with my constant calls,visits and questions! :thumbsup:

Thanks for the feed backs, always happy to help and the power curve looks great.

For 200rwkws by 4000RPM, the SS1PU would do it pretty well, or the 21U high flow can also do that assume you run enough boost at it.

Installed, housing mod by scotty, rest of welding im finishing up now myself. screamer is done, just gotta lengthen cooler piping to joiner and weld on a nipple for wastegate reference and we're good to go. can't wait to see how the SS2 goes.

They stops making power around 23psi. I was getting 327rwkws internally gated, but 367rwkws externally gated.

I completed a turbo install plus few other bits on the R34 today. They do give you a lot more useless stuff then they've done on R33s. Few things to point out:

I usually preload my actuators to 4mms. if for what ever reasons it has been removed and re-installed, please make sure it is loaded to where it was. More preloads can be added In case of boost tapering at high RPM on big boost.

The oil feeding line sits in between the turbo and chassis, do not fold them in between the turbo and manifold. The braided oil line is standard with and high flow services and is usually supplied with an ATR43 series turbochargers. Make sure you do get one if a 2nd hand turbo of ours is purchased.

Split fire coil packs are must in most of cases for high boost:

Most of people uses a JJR bell mouth front pipe, so I've bought one my self.

and its not quite right, but for the price I won't complain.

and gasket on our turbine housing is perfect:

Give it a little die-grinding and its ok.

The turbo in there is a SAT version of the ATR43G3 with a factory housing machined to suit. This is also the first internal gated version of that model, turbo comes in smooth and responsively. Still need to get a metal intake pipe made, the car will be running an Adaptronic plugin, hopefully hitting 300rwkws on pump fuel.

Can you keep the AFM, as most people do. So if you are doing more like for like testing it would make sense.

Some feedback for you stao.

> Stock untouched RB30E bottom end

> Stock untouched RB25DET Neo head

> VCT

> Hypergear ATR43SS2 (mid 2013 model)

> 6boost exhaust manifold

> Turbosmart 45mm hypergate (7psi spring) venting to atmo

> 3" straight through exhaust

> E85

> Adaptronic R34 GT-T select plug in

> X-Spurt 1000cc injectors

> R32 GTR intercooler

First impressions are that its so much fun everywhere in the rev range. Comes on to boost very fast in the upper RPM as you would expect, lower RPM is still pretty quick but has room to improve.

The cam timing is slightly out and I didn't have time to get a degree wheel and set them perfectly to zero, the gate is only running a 7psi spring at the moment which makes it a little lazy also.

Once I get back on the dyno and fiddle with both intake and exhaust cams (both are now adjustable from the front thanks to Ben C34) and chuck a 14psi spring in the gate it should be quite a monster. Can't upload the boost graph for some reason. 10psi low boost and 13psi high at the moment. I assume this is not even reaching the turbos efficiency range yet? I haven't seen anyone run such low boost using one of your turbos haha.

It's quick enough for me already but I really want to go back fix the cam timing, bigger gate spring and chuck 20+ psi at it and see what it makes hahaha.

nice, what do you think is causing your waveness on your graph lines? if thats only 13psi then thats pretty awesome! what power is normally achievable with GTR intercooler?

Looking promising so far will really come on when you wind a few more psi in.

    • Standard GTRs are boring and there plenty of them, do what ever you want to it and just remember nothing about them is cheap anymore and if you’re picky about how you want things done it gets even worse.    if it’s an n1 or something very limited then maybe care more about it’s heritage 
    • Alright guys, I've got good odds the motor survives due to a majority of spare parts. Who's taking bets on clutch, who's on transmission, and who's go diff? Happy to also take bets on if it still overheats in traffic or not 😛     Car looks amazing by the way. I've never been a fan of R34 rears, so really, I don't think any body kit etc solves that for myself, but the front end looks amazing!
    • As an ex-skyline owner Going off how these things are now "modern classics", I would keep the twins and just "refresh" bits that are required for reliable power and have a car you can take out for a cruise whenever you get the itch As a idiot who cannot leave things alone Going deep into the "rabbit hole" is a easy thing to do, as previously mentioned, once you start it becomes a slippery slope, wirh lots of supporting mods, and possibly rebuilds, and unless you have a bottomless pit of funds, the car can spend most of its life sitting in the garage,  broken, waiting for parts, or building more funds For a classic like a R32 GTR Basically, a reliable OEM+ refresh, that isn't a broken garage queen, is alot better than a car that you build, then break, then fix, then break again And it isn't just the engine you need to worry about, these beasties are getting on in age, and all parts are getting, and have got, expensive, the days of picking up cheap replacement engines and other driveline parts are well and truly over The funds not spent on going a single with quality parts, and with all the other other bits required to make it happen, could be spent on refreshing alot of other parts A wise man once said "If you cannot afford 2 GTR's, you cannot afford 1", I also believe he said this about 20 years ago when you could pick up a clean R32 GTR up for around $20k My advice for a R32 GTR (the one and only true Godzilla in my mind) is to think holistically about the whole car, the body, the power train, the suspension, the brakes, and the driveline SAU is a wealth of knowledge with decades of Skyline experience,  from stock, to OEM+, to modified to varying degrees, to full on or weekend or dedicated racecars, as well as full on money pits that rarely leave their garage Treat the old girl nice and give her what she deserves, you are a lucky man to own such a classic car  
    • For that price you could buy the hypergear turbo (big fan as I run one) and the Haltech ECU..
    • +1 for the Elite 2500. Get some new knock sensors while you are at it (pretty cheap), look up the TAARKS Nissan knock sensor kit. You may also want to get new coils (R35gtr) while your at it (assuming your on stock ones), as they are a liability. Mine started right up and idled fine on the base map. Also go MAP over MAF, as said above, Haltech make this super simple right out the box. Another fanboy of DBW here, Outsider Garage from your neck of the woods make some nice conversion gear for the R33 (that’s where I got some of my gear from).
