What Turbos To Match This Build

[sydking]

RB26

ATI 600hp Harmonic balancer damper & pulley kit

N1 water pump

HKS oil pump

Tomei oil gallery orifice

ARP Head stud kit

Cometic Street Pro 87mm MLS head gasket

Nissan full gasket set

HKS step-2 valve springs

R34 Greddy N1 Street Special camshafts, R34 CAS

Ported & Flowed headwork

Greddy timing belt

Precision adjustable intake & exhaust cam gears

Drive key, tensioner & idler bearing kit

87mm CP Piston kit - full block tidy up

Now i need turbos, i just went and had a look at a pair of Garret A/R 60 24m (apparently they have been highflowed) But his not to sure. His dyno sheet was saying 310KW and rekons he was runnign 22psi

Only reason turbos have been taken off his becasue he blew cylinder 2

These are just standard r32 gtr turbos? To me they look like they have steel wheels.

Any point in the right direction would be appreciated. Cheers.

Looking at the plates on the twins, there 32gtr nismo turbos, 1411 0064u,

[R31Nismoid]

Externally gated, old tech Nismo turbos... Talk about making a bad setup... Worse!

And all Nismo turbos were steel wheel.

As for turbos, usual questions apply.

What do you want/use of the car?

Budget?

Power goals?

Do you want response or top end

etc. etc. etc.

However, given the answers to the above 3 questions will pretty quickly end up seeing you using the search given there is plenty of info around.

Could you go into a little more detail of why you think they are a bad set up? what set up exactally? those turbos on that motor ect ect

I have just purchased everything in that pic for $500, So i can not complain with that.

I would be happy with 300kw. Responsive. And street driven.

With those turbos you won't be getting response...

You are better off trying to find some -7s or -9s if you want a RESPONSIVE set up and 300kw.

[R31Nismoid]

Nismo turbos are 1970s design, they are laggy pieces of junk. Always have been, always will be.

That is why they are $500. They've been well covered in plenty of detail if you don't believe me.

Honestly if you've spent all that money building a motor. Why then go and buy $500 second hand, shitbag turbos?

300rwkw-330rwkw & responsive = Garrett -9

Of which there are more results than you can poke a stick at. There is even a "300-330rwkw GTR" thread

[sydking]

Hmm, so dont bother at all then. -9,s is is then.

Good choice you will love them!!

[sydking]

Im keeping the GTS4 gear ratio so added acceleration with a pair of -9's should be fun

[GTR_JOEY]

i used to have those turbos on my old set up, made 300rwkw untill the amfs maxed out

ended up selling them for 700 as a pair so u did alright

from memorty those turbos are rated to 310-320 hp per turbo so u would be able to 350rwkw on them, pretty sure someone made 370rwkw in the 26 dyno results thread...

they are plain bearing and yes they are a bit laggy but they sure as hell are fun to drive with, come on hard which makes them feel fast

a mate of mine just put some -9s on his GTR that makes about the same power as mine use to... personally i found them a bit liniar and boring

wouldnt use them for track where response counts, maybe on the street where the smile counts

-7 and -9 to me = boring, im sure alot of people wont like this reply as everyone seems to be hung up on response

if i had the old set up id have taken ya for a drive but its not to be

if u want the response then get the 9s so u have room for more power if u want it

[GTR_JOEY]

i stand corrected, thought these were the Nismo RR581 turbos
