Hey guys finaly got the car tuned today at status tuning.

Mods are JJR stealth intercooler, nismo 555 injectors, z32, blitz ebc, power fc, nismo fuel pump, full 3.5inch exhust, hypergear tr43i turbo.

The car made 265kw on 17.5psi , I will upload the dynosheets when i get the computer with the scanner fixed, I am very happy with how the car feels. Thanks to trent at status tuning for hes great work and service and thanks to hypergear for a good turbo, also just for interest I am running hypergears old version of hes new atr43 g3 turbo so Im sure with hes new one you can expect even greater results.

good result. What did the turbo cost? im tossing up at the moment hypergear or CGC. Cant bloody decide. Hows the response as compared to a stock turbo?

The one that I bought cost me 1080 at the time with the oil line and ye it hits full boost at 3900 so not to bad ofcouse not as responsive as a stock one , but yeah they both do good jobs so it just comes down to your decision but I think hypergear is cheaper

baset- Thanks but im in the same boat as you cant drive cause dont have my lincese back atm lol so thats so annoying just having to look at it for another 5months.

Geraus-I think mine made more power then yours because mine wasnt a hi flow stao said it was a 500hp turbo with 0.63 rear. Im interested now to see what results hypergears new atr43 g3 can make.

Im still let to finish installing mine with the .63 housing. Seeing those results has gotten my hopes up as that is spot on my target. (mod list close to identical). I'm pretty sure mines the newer version though.

So you haven't got to drive it yet then? Shame. I'd love to hear feedback on how it comes onto boost (odviously slightly laggier then standard), and if the turbo spool sounds different compared to the stocko.

Yeah keep us posted on how your one goes when its done, where you gettings it tuned? well I havnt driven it but I got someone else to drive it and once comes onto boost pulls hard torque was 470nm or something it kicks you back and yeah as I said you hit full boost at 3900 , i cant remeber when the stock one hits full boost but yeah you can use that as a comparission. Tuner said could of got prob another 20kw with adding abit more timing into it but didnt do it due to variance in petrol when you refill cause if you got a bad tank cause detonation.

Sounds really good. I'll be getting it tuned at Race pace. Just waiting on some gaskets that are on order for mine.

Who really cares about such a small percentage of power for the sake of long term reliability. Good decision.

Glad to hear some good results with the turbo as they seem like a really sensible option for price and they look really good uninstalled :P

Luke

Yeah , theres not much that will perform and beat hypergear in its price range, its becoming a good alternative for those who cant get the money for garett or hks etc turbos

dude thats crazy 263kws ??? on hypergear?!?! i got 233kws on a hypergear highflow! wtf :D

but is your response the same? near the 4000rpm mark? i got a stock turbo running 12psi full boost below 3 (but only 190rwkw). Id like to keep it as punchy as possible down low... GCG any better as far as response you think?

Of course response is not going to be as good as a stock turbo. But its also ballpark 80rwkw more then a stock turbo

Considering the price tag required to get 265rwkw compared to other brand new turbos to hit similar power. Yes response isn't going to be quite as good. But 4000rpm certainly isn't over the top laggy. And there's a massive difference between $1300ish and $4000ish give or take.

I guess the only other thing that will interest me is how long they last given correct treatment (boost, cool down etc).

    • Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.
    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
    • Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
