For larger turbos they make more difference than smaller IMO. I doubt you could even tell.

Just like anything, work out what you want from a particular setup, and then research.

And do it once, do it right. Much cheaper in the long run ;)

Well the highflow 34 turbo will do exactly what I want, the only difference is I have a place that will do it with ball bearings for $1350 or one from Hypergear with a thrust bearing for $860.

thrust bearing is poor in comparison to ball bearings you want to know why?????

not just because ball bearing actually spool faster than journal bearings................

but....................

because......................

it reduces the oil flow required for lubraction and it increases the longevity / durability of the turbo compared to journal bearings

Might as well have gone a gt2867 brand new if you pay that much + cost of 34 turbo

A good hi flow option from hypergear that will bolt to stock manifold and dump can make more power than a gt28

This is what I was thinking, I can get a 34 turbo and highflow it for about $1000.

+1 the small frame garrets are a pain in the ass to bolt up to an Rb and they probably have no more power potential. High flows are pretty under rated

Clint was running a ss1pu early model and made around 350hp from memory on pump98 fuel.. Hi flowed r34 turbo + e85 should see easy power with stock response. I'm my opinion it would make a perfect street daily.

remove and purchase -9 Pete or T51r or both lol

But effort.

Are they a direct fit to the stock manifold and dump Pete?

I thought so?

Again, i was comparing a hihg flowed ball baring turbo to it, not a hypergear journal bearing one.

More making a point at what you're paying for if you go for a brand new one.

Our "Journal bearing one", is more responsive then your ball bearing one, and last 10x longer.

Yeah I agree Pete, I'm very much leaving towards the hypergear. I want to get an ecu and injectors capable of running e85 but running and running in pump 98 until I either get a second car or have e85 scalable locally.

nah man. Clint was actually making 400hp at the treads

    • Nope, still smaller rear, put on the 4inch exhaust and picked up power everywhere, ended up just shy of 800rwhp.   Didn't seem to be hitting any walls either, so perhaps could have pushed for more but all maybes and the fish that got away etc etc. 
    • Races cars don't care for VIN either...
    • This could be sold and shipped to the US for many gold pieces. RMS has no say in that. Ask various Western Sydney inhabitants how it works.
    • Ha ha ha, mine loves to spend, all on the dogs (they're our kids, and her spending would likely rival that of some people raising children!) the only benefit is, her spending is tax deductible as she runs a business in the dog industry 😛 The above all means she can spend race car budget quicker than I can. 😛 That and a lot of the things I want are very expensive, and I can be a bit "you want how much for that?!" And at other times overly impulsive. Or I start the w days of research, get to day 1.5 and get really annoyed that no one will advertise actual specifics and it's just marketting BS and I go "well, now I don't want anything to do with that now!" Also I hate paying lots of money for something I can make from $50 in materials. Then I get the shits halfway through making things and wonder why others who just buy parts have more fun... 😛  
    • Their 240Z with the RB26 would be a real nice thing to have in a garage to come out for an occasional weekend cruise It's such a cool thing in so many ways Sadly, we have a blue 240Z shell that I walk past every day, just sitting outside a shed at work, it has been slowly disintegrating and falling apart into the ground for the last few years, the owner cannot be found, and I am unable to "claim it" I've been told by work and the RMS, the rust in the body is excessive though, and it has had most of the salvageable stuff, like panels, trim and switch gear stripped off it over the last year or two, work keeps threatening to put it in one of our metal scrap bins, I wish they did though, as it makes Mark sad walking past it
