I currenctly have GT-SS on my RB26 with a os giken flywheel. Response is unbelivable. Lag doesn't exist for me.

I'm interesting in going rb30 because I want more torque. However, I don't want to go higher than 550whp because my tranny won't take it, clutch will wears too easily etc.

With that said, I went throught the 6 pages of rb30 dyno and I think I saw like 3 Twin turbo built.

Have you heard of any rb30 with twin -5, GT-SS, HKS 3510 ? what was the income?

Much appreciated!

Check the Dyno threads for RB26 for an idea what the turbos will make.

GT-SS's will not make 550WHP on 98 Fuel, also these would be too small on a 3 litre bottom end.

-5's May* make this power and would be my choice for a streetable solution on a 3 litre bottom end.

Don't know enough about the 3510(s*) to comment.

* = depends on setup and head etc.

Politely Ask N1GTR about his setup (3L bottom end with GT-RS x 2 but now going to -5's)

My brother is in the process of building a RB30DETT. He will be using a set of rebuilt IHI turbo's from a twin turbo liberty or something. They were reportedly pulled from an RB30DETT making somewhere around 300rwkw with supporting mods. Really great, responsive turbo's if you can get your hands on 'em.

There is a thread on the net somewhere with a couple of backyard mechanics strapping a pair of them onto a stock 1jz with no form of boost control. They free boosted for around 6 months till they blew!

The Rb30 will make mountains of torque with any turbo setup. I blew 12 gearbox's then put Redline gear oil in....haven't broken one since....plenty of power now to. see my signature block.

I fell GT-SS's will run out of puff very quickly on a 3ltr. -5's would be the smallest I would go....The starter motor would still bring them on boost...

12!!

My god!

Yeah 3L is nice. GTSS on 3L with really high CR and E85 would be ultimate on twisty hillclimbs.

I get the feeling if you are using E85 + high CR on a 3 Litre then you might even be able to go bigger then GT-SS without sacrificing any response, thoughts ?

You will have to loose response with -5s, bigger turbos will spool later. The question is; how much difference is it, and is it worth paying for a 3lt bottom end if you're only going to run SS's. Since you already have the SSs you could try it out - it would be interesting to see how it went. Next step up is -5s, and as you've said you'll really be wanting a stronger gearset if you go to high 300kws.

Well the OP wants zero lag, that has to be the way to get it. That setup would be great for tight uphill courses, I wouldn't go that extreme though, I'd go -5's. It would be nice to try but like anything it's not exactly a cheap exercise! Plus the step back in kw would shit me

Ever driven a stock supra TT? There's so much response it's crazy but lacks the outright power, the OP is just trying to find the balance between power/torque/response like most of us here.

i would guess you get a similar result with that GT-SS + RB30 setup to Al's GT30 + RB30, just has power everywhere.

If it does, then it's a great combo.

Al's car is seriously fun to drive, last I drove it it had exactly as you say power everywhere and not a lot of grip on the pan at deca. He may aswel forget using first gear, it's that good.

Nah never driven a supra.

Agree on the -5's perfect turbo for the job.

Still trying to decide what I will do. maybe I should look for a stroker 2.8 instead.

Like I said, I'm used to my 400whp anti-lag GT-SS, I don't want to loose that. a couple friends and I went in the mountain and I must say, I had the quickest car-more fun to drive this day because of the gtss turbos.

Getting to 500whp would be sweet. I don't want to start swapping tranny every 2 months LOLLLL think my OS ts2b will be fine however.

surely after 2 you would think shit.. i might need something better than a standard box???

i didnt even wana find the limit of 1 so the plan was made early to put a better box in.

cost of 12 boxes somewhere near $9000+??? say at $800 per second hand box

OS giken gearset $6000 fully assembled

    • There aren't boost creep issues, it's not engineered around the restriction of the cats but if you haven't tuned the engine a full decat + exhaust can flow enough air to run off the end of the OEM load scales and you will get a pretty substantial reduction in ignition timing as a result. I recommend using DFCO, avoiding ignition cut limiters, and avoiding popcorn tunes along with running a cat unless you enjoy a perpetually soot-covered and potentially burnt bumper.
    • Small update, it's been slow moving over the Christmas period with money having to go everywhere thats not my car 😅. I got myself a little present to myself from "santa" in the form of some tidy radiator mounts from fitmint automotive to get rid of the stock ones that look like they have been in an accident before and then straightened by a caveman. I know I should've replaced the rubber bush at the same time but I had no idea how bad they were until I was replacing the mounts. Decided to order their dash mat while I was at it as I feel like I am lucky enough to have a pretty decent condition dash and I don't want to risk it being ruined while it's parked in the aussie sun while I'm at work. I have found another electrical fault to add to the evergrowing list to eventually chase down. Every time I replace my taillight globe it blows within a day of use, I'm starting to think my life would be easier if I took a few minutes to learn how to use  a multimeter 😂.   Had some luck with finding a series 2 drivers headlight on marketplace to replace my mismatched series 1 headlight, a subtle difference but it's nice to have a matching set of lights now.   I returned to the air con problem due to being sick of this summer heat, found a good condition condenser to replace my leaking one! I got it in the car and was happy when I got the thumbs up that the system was now holding gas. Sadly the compressor is not kicking in for some reason, we even tried branching the relay in the fuse box. I have tried to do some research on the issue with no clear understanding of what the fix is, so for now it will be placed on the backburner until I can be bothered to look into the wiring to the compressor. The last small mods I have done was cutting the horizontal vents out of the front bar, not really in a functional airflow sense but I just think it looks better as I am not a fan of the series 2 bar. I also switched the shift knob out for a hosoboyo aluminium grex style one, it has a really nice more direct driving feel than the outdated rubbery oem one. Thirdly, I chucked on one of the ebay bonnet strut kits. The fitment is decent and they seem to work fairly well. They have only given out once while the car was parked facing downhill, I think if I was working under the bonnet I would still put the oem hood stay up to be precautionary as to avoid getting a speedy concussion.
    • Got pneumonia, haven’t played with her in a while, but I’m back now. Previous owners cut bonnet pins into the bonnet. My choice try find a replacement or spend $15 get some pins myself to cover up. Now only one small hole to cover. looks shit now, but when the bonnet is red again. Be good 🤞
    • No R32 GTSt had 15" wheels. 205/55-16 was standard GTSt fare. 4.36:1 is standard R32 turbo auto diff. I think the manual was too, not 4.11. 4.11 and 4.08 were R33 namual and auto respectively.
