Rb26 Twin Turbo Upgrade Specifications - Would Like Specifics With Models, Sizes Etc


Recommended Posts

-5s + 3L will do it easy haha

If it was a dirty old BNR32 or BNR33 I would go 3L but I want to keep the GTR about it lol.

Mafia, are you planning on stroking this at any stage or strictly a stock engined car? If not, a set of -5's and a step 1 v cam which you can use with stock pistons will definitely help you reach your goals.

Stock at the moment. Considered adjusting cams but funds aren't that plentiful at the moment. I'm just chasing replacements for my -5s.

This is what ATP have said. Looks like they only have options for the GTX2863 and GTX2867 at the moment which are too large for what I want.

Hello Jonathan,

Thank you for contacting us. We offer the GTX2863R and GTX2867R upgrade solutions to the stock turbochargers. The turbine and compressor housings bolt-on to the stock compressor inlet, turbine inlet, and turbine outlet.

Product details (NOTE: GTX2863R and GTX2867R are upgrade options under related parts):

Feel free to contact us for further questions.

Thank you

Doesn't look like they offer a solution:

Hello Jonathan,

We do not offer a bolt-on solution for the GTX2860R.

The provided link is a GT2871R with the option to upgrade to the GTX2863R and GTX2867R. The GTX2863R and GTX2867R are the only available GTX series options within the Skyline housings.

Thank you

I've added the GTX2863 to my cheat sheet. It looks like it was made to be the -5 equivalent.

Does anyone think the different lower trim would help it spool? Need some experts in here to talk to me about the specs :)

ATP are pretty helpful, they just sent this:

Hello Jonathan,

No problem. On a typical 2.0L setup, the GTX2863R spools about 100 to 150rpm slower than the GTX2860R.

Simon did a back to back with -5's and 63 mm GTX wheels in -5 housings. Made an extra 90 hp through the middle and 50 up top or so. I have the graph in my phone somewhere. I'll post it up this arvo after work. That was on a RP 2.8 though.

I'm sure those results are on the GTX thread. Go back about 12 months.

That's a really nice plot. Can anyone give an idea of what rpm vs speed between 90 and 130?

See with this sort of upgrade, the GTX2860 (Slightly smaller) would be earlier and even more responsive with a nice top end

I've plotted it over my graph which has rpm. I'll dig it up tomorrow for you.

They are on 2.8's though.

    • Like a Stagea, but not as cool! Hope you have enough garage space for this, or is something going to leave to make way for it?
    • The new project has arrived. I have wanted one of these for such a long time, well before that meathead Clarkson drove one in Africa. I really wanted an E34 but I have some medical issues that mean I *really* can't bump my head and the lack of airbags in the E34 made it just too big of a risk.  I don't know why I've always liked these older touring BMW's to be honest, but man I love this car. She's been pretty well maintained for her 243k's with what appears to be only a single oil leak at the oil filter housing gasket. It has a bunch of updates including later model bumper and headlights, 7 series billion-way adjustable seats and it came with a few spares and another set of wheels with legal tyres. I got a unregistered car permit from the RTA and drove it back from Canberra on Saturday.                   First cab off the rank is cleaning it up for blue slip. I dont know how picky they'll be but I figured I'd clean the headlights, fix the oil filter housing gasket, replace the speed sensors (throwing errors) and swap the OE wheels (the M Sport wheels have a big chunk out of one of the tyres.) I also need to replace all 6 gas struts - 2 for bonnet, 2 for hatch and 2 for hatch glass. The car tries to eat me whenever i open any of these. My plan for this car; Ultimately, this is a budget car. I can't afford to throw lots at it and its because I have another car that I got this, if something breaks its no big deal. I will just maintain and repair it really. But eventually I want to do a manual conversion. It actually looks pretty straight forward for E39's and the trickiest part will be sourcing the parts.  I do need to replace some suspension arms or bushes because wow, she's a floaty old girl. She's also fantastically slow. Like really, really slow. When pulling back out on to the freeway on Sat after a quick pull over I needed to wait until no cars were visible before going.  Oh, and the guy I bought it from had a gorgeous R31 GTS-X in the garage. 
    • Do you have a picture? I assume it is a breather for gearbox oil as it expands, it should have a vacuum line run nice and high in the engine bay (R32 GTR has it on a top bellhousing bolt)
    • Hi all, I am putting an r33 gtst gearbox into a VL and have noticed what looks like a vacuum barb on the box (on top in the middle). Suspecting that it's a vacuum line but I'd like to double check, if someone could confirm the function of that would be great. Cheers in advance.
    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though
