Looking for some knowledge

Hi guys still new to the forum. Yes I've used the search bar and found a lot of old info on my questions so.... I recently got my R32 GTR it has N1 turbos and was pretty much bone stock other then that when I got it. so this is what I've done so far. 

Hks front pipes 

true 3.5 straight pipe all the way back to a HKS muffler 

HKS super SSQ Bov 

HKS hard piping kit 

ARC Intercooler 

Full Greddy suction kit 

Apexi power FC with a street tune 

removed the boost restrictor 

deleted the ABS rear steering and AC and pretty much all of the suspension has been upgraded 

So my question is I'm looking to make jump to 550 600hp I've been looking at different turbos and it seems like everyone has a different opinion. My plan was tomei manifolds HKS down pipes R35 MAFs but fuel and turbos it seems like some guys say 800cc injectors some say 650s. So just looking for a honest real world opinion or what your running to make 550 600hp I live in Texas so best octane fuel available to me is 93 

 

sorry for any spelling or grammar mistakes lol

650cc injectors will flow enough fuel for ~650HP at the engine.  If your 550-600 numbers are at the wheels, even with American dyno markup (meaning that we think your US dynos read high) then you'd be better off with 800cc injectors.  But to be honest, don't even f**k around with 800s.  Just go straight to some Bosch 1000s and be done with it.  Then you will have spare capacity for more power or E85 (should it become an option).  And no, they are not too big.  You will give nothing away by using them.

I wouldn't persist with twin turbos either.  If you're getting serious and were going to be replacing manifolds and dump pipes, then piss the whole lot off and use a decent modern single.  You will thank me later.

I removed my boost re-stricter from my GTR. IT cost me 14k to rebuild it. And it only has 1 more bore left in block now (over sized pistons).

Sorrry how is this relevant to this thread?

So what do you recommend a GTX3582R? 

I was looking at the flatwell single turbo manifolds and then just do a tial 44mm waste gate. Still want some response like something under 5k. I had a bit turbo E30 and the boost came on at 5,000 and I was shifting at 7500 lol f**king usless 

So Doing so research looking like going single turbo is just as expensive if not more lol. Turbo is 3,000 manifold 800 wastegate 600. 3.5 inch downpipe and other Misc welded parts are gonna be around 1,000 so let's ball park it at 6,000$ I thought you guys said this was cheaper lol to do single turbo lol 

don't see how that's more spensive then shelling out for tomie manifolds dumps and a set of brand mew turbos.

If you do do it do it properly with a good manifold, split pulse, twin gates and the like though.

 

as mentioned above in a perfectly relevant way, stock engine will probably give up soon enough though, so would pay to look at that I think

Who said cheaper?  I just said "if you are going to pay to do X, then you should do Y instead".  The logical reason for this is that the result will be 500x better than sticking with the crappy packaging and old skool performance of twins.  What does it matter if it costs 20% less or 30% more?  It's a GTR that you plan to make 600+ HP out of.  It is a question of when and how you spend the $50k to make it work.

-5's will make 450kw at the wheels on E85. That is realistically the only option for twins at those power levels, though being American -7's probably make 550hp over there considering how stupidly high your dynos read out. 

Listen to GTSBoy he knows his shit. Realistically anything more than a good -7 setup (which is effectively what you currently have) you may as well go a single, it will out perform the twins in every way, more power, response, and less shit to go wrong. If you want that soft of power, you would have to be an idiot to keep the twins.

Go single if legalities are lax over there in Texas.

IMO GT3582r is good compromise between power and response.

I'm sure with Borg Warner EFR would be wicked.

As for injectors go 1000cc, gives you some head room when you want more power.

I gather you haven't watched the video. Have a look at it - questions of response etc are thoroughly discussed.,

Ok ok lol I guess big single it is. So a GTX35 any reccomdations on exhaust manifolds ? I've been sourcing parts from RHD Japan most Australian company's I've emailed I never get a response back from. I plan on using a tial V60 I've always had good look with tial stuff in the past. If 60mm is to much let me know I hit a big learning curve with the GTR. Coming from bmws I thought this was gonna be cheaper I was dead wrong.

    • Gas MIG for learning, I was able to weld up some nice 1.6mm tubs so you can do thin stuff easily enough. Then moved on to thick caliper adaptor brackets with the same machine, all good.  Arc/Stick is great for dirty garden work etc, but Gas MIG for starting on car stuff.  Jump on the NCR FB page and search ATP Tubs or GKTech caliper adaptors for pics/info. I'm no pro but it wasn't hard to learn. Be willing to grind and go again though if it's cold etc. 
    • That's not a bushing!  
    • Oh and I got myself a grandpa spec dash mat.  
    • Ok, so first round of maintenance done. I didn't get much history with the car but I know it was well looked after. That isn't enough for me though, so ...  I had to do the oil filter housing gasket. It was leaking a lot, and also as part of that I did the anti-return valve and the VANOS oil line (from HEL).  But, then I got hit with the while-ya-in-there's. Did both accessory and A/C belts, tensioners and pulley. The accessory belt that came off had a huge hole in it, like somebody hung it up with a nail. The pulley and tensioners seem ok, so I'll keep those just in case. I did water pump and pump pulley. The water pump had a small bit of play so timing was good.  I also did fan clutch. I don't know how to test the old one but between the water pump and the fan clutch the car is running a little bit cooler (not much ~2 - 3 degrees maybe) so good result. Unfortunately the thermostat and housing didn't turn up in time so I'll shelve those. I have no concerns at all on the current ones.  Then I spent what seemed like 40 days and 40 nights bleeding the air from the cooling system. She also got new air filter, fuel filter and did a Mobil 1 change with oil filter. Hilariously, not an hour after telling my wife how proud I was of myself to be going slowly and meticulously and making sure everything was torqued and nothing missing I went and started it without the oil filter in. The car complained immediately of no pressure and after only a few seconds I turned it off and discovered a shit tonne of oil on the driveway. Sigh. I've driven it since and thankfully doesn't seem to be any problems. AND THEN during the test drive a ratchet extension fell into the battery area in the boot and JAMMED right next to the positive terminal and the car body. Like, just touching it made sparks and it was jammed in there. So, almost killed the engine and then almost burned the car to a crisp. Good start. This was the rails under the splash guards. So stoked, she's straight as and super clean. No rust anywhere. There was a heap of caked dirt that I removed but otherwise looked great. All 4 jacking points are perfect.   Next I want to service the gearbox. Sometimes it's a little reluctant to shift up and I'm hoping a fluid change will sort it. I also have 4 new rear subframe bushes. They're as big as a toddler. I'm renting a tool to help put them in. I can't wait for this because its a bit crashy back there at the moment.
