Just a small update, maybe it's usefull for someone in the future.


I bought the -9's and got them fine balanced. I don't have a dyno graph yet because it was just mapped on the street, but I'm very happy with them. Full boost (1,45 bar) is at 3900-4000rpm with Tomei cam gears in stock position until now. Will adjust this on the dyno in the near future and see what it will do for better spool, I'm sure this will bring some extra response and midrange power.


I really like it, that I get the same boost earlier than before. 1 bar was at 3800rpm before, now it's 1 bar at 3500rpm.

The Garrett balancing is max of 1g up to 30000rpm and max 2g after that.

Mine are balanced to max 0,2g now.

Can upload a chart of the balancing if someone is interessted.

Wasn't that expensive, so thought I maybe won't feel a difference, but won't harm.

This for example is what a normal balancing diagram looks like:

rover-75-1.8-turbocharger-cartridge-chra

The balancing from factory is anywhere below the big line.

I attached a picture of one of mine now

You can see the big line on the left corner. The balancing should be anywhere below the line to meet the manufacturers specification.

I think you won't feel a difference at all. All they say, the Turbos last longer with a better balancing.

This is how the biggest Garrett dealer in Germany discribes the Garrett balancing:

Garrett balanced the core assembly of the GT-R and GT-X turbocharger according to appropriate guidelines in a reasonable and cost-efficient framework. This balancing is usually sufficient. If it's not enough for you and you want a more exact balancing for your turbocharger, we can perform this for you. The costs for this is 130EUR. The work delays the delivery of your turbocharger to a maximum of one working day.

Before and after adjusting the cam gears?

Yes I will.

Before and after adjusting the cam gears?

Yes I will.

should be a big difference, the inlet cam really responds well to adjustment on the RB26

    • Apologies, while id like to put the MAF as close to the TB and relocate the recirc, this may be too much work. Will most likely end up just putting it on the original AFM spot ( onto/next to the airbox ).  Was going through nistune, found a pretty nifty doc on this. Nistune MAF Notes. Also, i was looking through the bay, and there seems to be a tube/line connected from the A/C to the intercooler piping ( Between the smic and the recirc), what does this do as the crossover fmic piping doesnt have any connection? plumbing? not sure what you call it but the nipple thing ahah.  Also, been reading up more about crossover fmic in regards to the legality of having the hole drilled for the piping, this would most likely need to be engineered right?
    • My advice is if you need a big build done do it in Japan. The yen rate is so favorable and there are shops that can be genuinely trusted and not micromanaged/carefully monitored every step of the way. Garage Yoshida is obviously my preferred option but they're so busy these days and all interaction with new customers has to be mediated through BBL/Toprank now. 
    • I haven't....but a poorly made one would terrify me. Surely a good second hand one is the go, as they don't work hard and no-one wants to keep one after they are finished with it A big consideration would be the weight of the shell you are putting on it....is it a fully dressed chassis or just the body
    • Not stock. All remade. Mostly looks stock because the pipes run to and from the standard holes in the inner guard to get to the return flow FMIC. I'm not sure which question you're trying to ask, because it seems like "stock position" vs "stock position".
    • Hey, it's a GT-R, it's just as significant a moment as mine😁 It's not ideal when things are uncertain; I'm the type of person that always has a set plan for things in life so being unsure of this plan puts me in a weird place mentally.
