What you are attemtping to describe is Average Power, if you do an Average Power comparison  between the 2 turbo configurations it will answer your question.:)

Im talking about traction v's low down power as in the described text

I somewhat disagree, No matter what housing you get your still going to get wheelspin.

Say we have 2 turbos, one producing midrange and the other top end.  Ok, both are going to produce wheelspin in first gear regardless.  Now, second gear, one produces maximum power earlier than the other, say 500rpm??  So one spins or 7/8 kmh before the other, lets say 10kmh it is then, so one spins at 60kmh and the other at 70kmh, one has more power than the other so in my theory they would spin about the same.  And the wheelspin you get at those speeds does not really slow you down.  Now 3rd gear, if you can get wheelspin you have a mighty strong motor, so i would say the midrange turbo would jump the top end turbo initially and then the top end turbo coming over the top.

i totally disagree based on my own car.

the .82 rear housing. If im smooth through first-second it will not wheelspin one bit.

And yes it was my car Roy was in :D

I have no traction issues at all. Just using 245 sumitomo's which are absolute rubbish for grip. And ive still got lots of squat :D

If the turbo came on much sooner, im sure i would have problems. I used too with my old t04e which was maknig a lot less power, but boosted just a bit earlier.

And true to form, the Bush bearing turb was like a light switch.

The my turbo on the motor is much smoother and progressive so it has bearely any problems traction related

    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much

    • 😜 hopefully we get this instead of a new R36 GTR due to recent financial problems at Nissan. Nismo to sell a complete kit with RB26 and driveline. All starts making sense (ok maybe not) once the Nissan Leaf's (Leaves?) with stuffed EV motors/batteries hit the market cheap
