Hi, I am having trouble picking a cooler for my R34 GT-T. I currently have a GTR front mount but have decided not to use it and just buy a kit. I'll be running a Power FC, AVC'r, full turbo back exhaust, either a HKS 2530 or 2540 turbine and am looking for between 220-250 rwkw. Any ideas please. Thanks :D

I plan the same mods as you for my 33, PFC & 2530.

Currently have a full 3" exhaust, and went with the Trust VSPL kit (600/276/75). I'm aiming for a responsive street car.

Have you checked out the locally made Hybrids 600/300/65 $1400? Allot of people will recommend them.

I have a greddy/trust RSPL kit. hasn't provided any restriction yet. and no noticable pressure drop. Intake temp remains max 5 degrees above ambient. Took about 2 hours to install and the power difference was immediately noticable. The 440rwkw GTST from JMS Runs a 4inch thick trust cooler. Apex ones look funky...haven't had much experience with them.

HKS Type-S for a R34 GT-T plumbs back under the cooler to the original pipes. Thats why I want one, stuff going over the engine bay. You can buy a HKS upgrade kit for the rest of the pipes worth about $800-$900.

Check it out for yourself at: -

(Thanks to Franks for that one, legend!)

As far as I know on the R33's they flow over the engine bay.

    • The cross sectional area of a circular hole scales with the square of diameter. So a 2mm diameter hole is 4x the area of a 1mm hole. Not double. The 1.7mm hole is nearly 3x the area of a 1mm hole. You do not need restrictors at both ends of the oil supply line. If you have new, additional restrictors at the turbo end, that you did not have before, then you do not need a restrictor at the inlet end.
    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist
    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
