Hey all i currently have had a rebuild now on my r32 gtr an atm i am running a full tomie catalogue really, an i have a t78-33d single on it atm. Was curious im thinking off going the next step an gettin a t51r kai but was curious to know the differences between the t51r kai an the t51r bb spl?? if thats correct! An its still a 2.6lt so it hasn't been stroked!

Atm my t78 full boost around 5000rpm was also interested if any1 knew about the t51 wen it makes full booost buy on a rb26? 272 tomie cams in/ex aswell 10.8mm lift if that helps anything!

Cheers Cliffo

yeah i have only ever heard them on youtube an its porn they sound like a jet fighter coming on boost!! i am gonna go the t51r kai bb i think rather keep some response then have a coffee an a smoke before it even hits!

surely if you were building an engine that needed a big$ turbo like that you would be buying it from someone that could properly match a turbo to your needs ? . or at the least know what horse power and look at the hp ratings on the hks website ?

    • Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.
    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
    • Haltech fanboi reporting in. Buy the Haltech! 
    • You can try shoving a borescope down there to see what's up.
