Currently have our rb34 underway atm. Hopefully have it back next week ready for assembly. Wont be until early next year when its ready to run though.

I must say the quality of the kit is astounding. The crankshaft looks mint.

Knew it wouldnt take you long haha

for the Race car?

Yeh its for the race car lol.

Gtst circuit car. Using a new 6boost split pulse manifold with gtx3076r 0.82 divided rear, twin 40mm turbosmart gates, 25 head with solid lifters, gtr inlet manifold/throttle bodies.

So its going to be ultra responsive which is the plan with this new engine. However, if it is too much so and runs out of legs real early then we will throw the 35r back on with a split pulse housing as well and see how it goes then. Either way its going to be interesting!

I was amazed with the torque level my rb30 made - so were many of my passengers...i cant even imagine what an rb34 would feel like!

has anyone here actually experienced an rb34 or even an rb32?

Given Al's results with a GT30 in .82, non-split, it was well and truly maxed out and nosing over in the top end.

With another 400cc it'll be quite interesting to see where the GTX will sit!

GTX3076R with 0.82 divided rear sounds too small for a 3.4L. That would be closer to the equivalent of a 0.63 single rear on a GTX3076R which would be too small for a 3L let alone a 3.4L.

The 1.06 divided rear on the GTX3076R would sure be interesting, would still be ridiculously responsive.

Although I would think the GTX35R with 1.06 divided rear would still be very responsive and make lots of top end on a 3.4L.

Either way super jealous :)

i cant remember the exact size, however, when i built my rb30 - rips advised a .9 rear if i was to go for a single setup.

i do agree with you Harey...1.06 would be a good fit for the larger 3.4ltr

Yeh I agree with you there. Unfortunately what happened was the manifold and turbo was originally intended for just a regular rb30.....then as things often do, the plan changed. Using the 3.4L was an afterthought and not initially intended for that setup. But we are going to try it anyway and see what happens and then more then likely throw the gt35r with a .82 divided rear on and see what happens.

Like I was saying its going to be interesting! Its always fun to try new setups.

only problem is the only divided 1.06 on the market is the ATP housing, which is pretty average.

looking forward to seeing how this goes

I for one am plesently surprised to see someone put together an engine/turbo combination where the turbo isn't running at 50-60% of its capability. While the motor may run out of legs at the redline, really who cares! It will still make 700hp and its mid range power will be simply monsterous. And if you want to go faster you just change gears.

Some people only see the big fat figure up the top..... not the area under the curve.

Michael, Do you know what the .82 divided housing is off originally?

Not too sure to be honest, I think kyle told me he gets them from the states. Im sure he said its from ATP. I suspect it is this one http://www.atpturbo.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=tp&Product_Code=ATP-HSG-080&Category_Code=GTX

But I will find out for sure next week when it all turns up.

    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
