Hey guys,

I'm looking to upgrade my turbo

Currently running a t04r but want to upgrade to the equavilant in the gtx range.

Would that be the gtx4294r?

Ive heard rumors such as more response than a t04z yet almost as powerful as a t51r.

Any1 used or heard of anything about these turbos?

Very interested but scared of the size they are.

T04r can on full boost a 5k so looking to either keep or improve that.

Also looking for 500ish kw at 4 wheels atleast as was makin 460kw with the t04r.

My car currently has 280in an 272ex that I was thinking of changing to both 280s.also 2.8 litre stroker.

All other turbo sugeations are greatly appreciated.

A quick google found me this. Its a much, much bigger turbo than a t04. Most people quote them as a 900hp turbo, which is way more than what your aiming for, so in my non expert opinion, its way to big. I really don't know what is the best turbo for ~500kw though, but probably something a fair bit smaller.

Yeah your right

It sucks as need to run something t4 flanged and been hearing how t04r and z are old technology and wanted to make some more power without too much extra boost as I'm running 22psi already.and seeing as the gtx4294r has better response than t04 series turbos was considering it.How about gtx4202r? Or will the gtx3582r make the power with response I'm after?

Dude, use some common sense.

The GTX4294 is a BIGGER turbo than your T04Z and will be laggier.

What are you after? More response? Or 500rwkw? You cant have both.

GTX35R will be more responsive than you T04Z (350-400rwkw)

GTX4294 will make 500rwkw (5500rpm>)

OR

Run 30psi through the T04Z.

A lot of 2jz are now running gtx4294r or it's smaller brother gtx4202r and claiming to have same and better response than a t04z and can achieve t51r like kw and they have tried t04z before hand.i wouldnt mind more power but than again same power with more response would also be good.im really looking at the gtx4202r now,just read that a 2jz starts seeing bOost at 2500rpm and on song by 3800 rpm.im also running pump but I don't know if I an be bothered changing my fuel system to suit e85 and order it by the drum.i do t trust servos either

Try again mate. The GT4202 is a 1000hp turbo, BIGGER than a GT4294 (850hp)

The GT4202 is also the same size as a T51 so its no brainer that they would be making similar power.

A 42 size turbo at target boost by 3800rpm??

Show me these results and ill buy 10 of them.

And if are serious about more response and more power the turbos I would pick:

TS GT4088

TS FP3794

I'll try find the thread again in the supra forums,also im talking all wheel power not rear.the 4088 looks really good.i might still run the gtx4294r but I'll do a little more research.i don't mind lag too much as my t04r for some reason comes on at 5grand.

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
