I'm sure a mate would do it for a slab of beer. Some bloke does them on here for $100 exchange.

It most Definately does make a difference. Plenty of info on the net about it.

While we are on the topic of exhausts. I've got hks gt-ss (-9's) turbos going in atm with hks dumps.

before you go any further get rid of the HKS dump pipes and go to an open belmouth design, due to the design of the hks pipes they are a pretty major retraction

Yeah I have read the topics relating to the mod, makes sense why it works so well. Anyone in Melbourne?

It was a very stupid design from Nissan. A little bit more thought would have gone a long way, but I Spose it worked well for it's intended purpose of 300 hp - give or take.

If you want response and internal gate then maybe a EFR8374 might be the "right" answer?!?

I know that my 6262 is better down low and up top that -5s so the EFR8374 should be even better with response and also be able to make more power than the low mounts.

For reference here is a 6262 vs -5s with similar specs on same dyno (6262 running more boost)

I see that the new turbo tech is good but some people have a budget want around the 400kw mark and do not want to change front pip manifold, dump pipe, intercooler pipes, Intercooler and BOV.

You still can get good results and more than enough power and response with -5's without having to change to a single turbo.

that is what i honestly think and achieved with my build.

See this makes me sick in the pit of my stomach :) I love my singles, but the other day I was even pulled over in my daily BMW so the plan for the R32 is get it engineered with an RB26 and low mount twins. :( All so I can continue to enjoy it as a fun club-street car for years to come...and be slower. :(

Well, from Matty James-Wallace' back to back between the -5's and the internal gate 8374 it's night and day. Comes on 5-700 rpm earlier than the -5's. I'd believe it too after having the pleasure of experiencing a GTR with an EFR on it too.

Yeah I've been in Matt's car and it's impressive. Hard to judge being a 3.0L vs my 2.6L, actually next time I'm at the dyno I'll try and grab and overlay.

My expectation is a EFR8474 would be a few hundred rpm earlier than mine any only miss out on a little bit top end on same capacity motor.

That would be good for an overlay.

Interesting you say that about the top end. The 8374 has 62.6 mm inducer and 83 mm exducer compared to the 6262 of 62 mm in and 82 ex. I realize its a bit more complicated than that but food for thought as thr EFR is has a bigger front fan on both accounts.

The right sized single could certainly come on earlier than twins because you have 6cyls driving one medium exhaust exhaust wheel. On twins you effectively cut the engine in half to drive two smallish to medium exhaust wheels, this is what drives the lag profile.

Also before you go and buy random parts talk to a workshop in person and give them the problem statement. This might save you a few $k in parts only to find it does nothing to shift the boost profile where you expect it, ie I think you expect a 600rpm+ shift in boost profile from those parts, I'm not convinced they would get anywhere near that amount of change in response.

Would be curious as to where GTX2860/63s (modified for OEM fitment) fit in the mix.

They should be an improvement over normal -5s, but enough to give the EFR8374 a run for it's money? Maybe not.

Issue is, who i going to do the back to back. Its alot of coin tied up in all those parts :(.

If only a company makes some steam pipe manifolds... everyone makes that stainless balla manifolds that only a few can afford...

If like to see either EFR6758s or PTE5130s as a true bolton for the RB26 so the small twins can enjoy some of the tech the big singles have been getting :(

Manifolds are a drop in the ocean really.

    • When's the rear mounted turbo kit coming? Needs dose and V8 chop idle lol.
    • I was very unimpressed with how the car came up from the A pillar forward, before I hit things (twice). It all has to go. It had to go, but now it has to go... more. So we finally found the very first Shennanigans with the entirely perfectly setup engine that had no problems being pulled apart to improve on 'was perfectly fine'. Cam bearings looked a bit... stock. Which isn't entirely bad given they were stock and this is a ~20 year old engine. So new cam bearings are on the way because it's somewhat difficult to get to this stage to do it later, and it will trash the block. It was quite unusual that it wasn't done when the perfectly new-looking VCM cam was originally installed by [unknown] What IS unusual is the cam that was installed there was advanced SIX degrees. As to why there is no way to know.. however it could have been @Dose Pipe Sutututu's mate who wanted a larger cam sound but also wanted it to come on earlier to be more usable. This is my dyno sheet with the previous setup - This cam is not supposed to peak until 7000+ RPM, according to VCM. This is what lead me down the whole 'my heads/intake setup is running out of puff and can't support the cam' line of thinking to begin with. Anyway too late now - New cam is in! It could be rather funny if this smaller cam acts like a larger cam because it isn't advanced six degrees. In the spirit of everything is working amazingly - the COMP cam required no dialling in whatsoever. It was about 0.5 degrees advanced, which seems pretty bang on. Any adjustment either way would be further out. In the spirit of everything was previously working amazingly - The timing gear that was taken out turned out to be was an N-Motion double timing chain kit, with adjustable cam gear (which is how it was 6 degrees advanced) and all looks entirely perfectly new. It also had a Torrington bearing, which was one of the reasons I ended up getting the Cloyes kit which they used in the C5R 24 hour racecar - Because I couldn't confirm what was in the engine when talking to Tony Mamo. I did believe however it was a Double chain kit of some kind... but found no supporting documentation or evidence for it.
    • I recently did this to my R33 with the full set from Car Mats Direct, they can't do the vinyl anymore that's advertised on the website due to a supplier issue so I ended up with the Black Loop Pile which looks great. I went all out with rubber sound deadening sheets from Repco and also added the sound deadening foam layer option with the carpet. Makes a world of difference and got rid of all the weird smells in the 29 year old interior. It was a bit of work but I'd 100% recommend it, Car Mats Direct had awesome customer service and quick postage. Replaced my seats with some sporty ones from Autotechnia while I was at it, feels like a new car.
    • Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way. 
    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
