I'm currently doing a single turbo conversion on my GTR with a 6262. What have people done with the water lines since these turbos don't need them?? I'm trying to figure out best solution.

So the one coming from behind the head connected to the one from the front?? I'm a bit lost here not much info out there.

How about the one on the block down the bottom, just block that one off?

Mate finally bit the bullet and is ditching his GT3076R for a 5858 on his R34 Gt-t, was making a touch under 500 before so I'm guessing it will bump up to around 550 with not too much more lag

Went in for a tune last night. 525rwhp on 1.4bar and 555hp on 1.6bar before it started having valve spring issues top end. Higher boost looked like it was heading just under 600hp with 1.8bar.

Boost comes on around the same as the 3076R but makes a bit more power earlier (200rpm in lower range when ramping boost) and makes an extra 70-90hp on the same boost through the mid range and top end. Overlay with the T67 on my old green car and they were very similar but the 5858 will smash it with the valve springs sorted and some more boost.

Forgot to get a graph printed (will get one when valve springs are done) but it's probably the best mid size turbo I've seen on a RB25

TLDR; Comes on earlier and makes shit loads more power than a GT3076R

Awesome results. I thought the 5858 would be laggier then the 3076 by miles and that the 5558 would be a closer match. Apparently not!

Im guessing .82 rear? BB version?

Technically boost builds a little slower on the 5858 but I guess it's flowing a bit more air so more power down low. Owner says it feels better low down on the road than the GT3076R as well

Yes and yes to the other questions

    • 49719 is the cooler loop. Right at the front, LHS of that diagram. Return line from rack (LP side) goes to cooler loop on RHS front of car, then back under engine and returns to bottom of tank. 49717M is feed from tank to pump. HP line out of pump is thick rubber, followed by the hard line that runs down to crossmember and runs in parallel (but opposite flow direction) to the LP return line. Nothing goes anywhere near the firewall or interior of car. The closest they get to that is the connections on the rack.
    • Thanks, plan is to drain all fluid tomorrow and do smoke test to find out the leak.   Appreciate your help and want to understand how the system work. So cooling is achieved by the long loop not any rad? The diagram seems to suggest it connects to somewhere inside the cabin and I thought that is a cooler inside firewall. If you look at the diagram it seems to show it connects to something inside firewall. I tried chasing it but not easy unless I take loads off   i am confident pump is good as fluid goes in and it gets soft( steering) but as soon as I turn engine off , loads of bubble come to surface and overflow. When engine is on , fluid level is below minimum but when off it shoots off and thinking it is sucking air in. I suspect aluminium pipe may have a crack line or whole   smoke test with no fluid should be a good start and if needed will remove the pump   In addition, the one going under the engine bay is high pressure line and one directly connecting from pump to resorvoir is return/ low pressure?   finally I searched and suggestion is to use dexron 2 but that is discontinued so bought dexron 3 as all research suggest it is compatible and shouldn’t cause any issues/ blow seals. I bought two liter of dexron 3 motul atf
    • Don't worry about. Just don't try to drive hard enough to make boost and you'll be fine.
    • Yes. This has already been said. It is a loop of hardline in front of the radiator. Because.... the pump is on the LHS and the steering rack hydraulic connections are where they always are on a RHD steering rack....on the RHS. The high pressure line goes down under the engine, along the crossmember, like it does on all Skylines. Don't just throw expensive braided hoses/other kits at it. Work out what is wrong and fix that.
    • Still got the afm on the intake, clamps are shut tight, only loose hose is the one that goes from the j pipe towards the IACV, since it's next to impossible to find a factory hose and the barbs are different sizes (I'm still using clamps on this hose to try and help it seal on the iacv side) I've ordered parts to make up the hotside of the intercooler pipes, I'll plumb it in and see what happens in a few days I suppose The turbo's internally gated, can I just unscrew the tension rod to let the gate open?
