Ok my GTR will be here next month, and I will want to increase the performance somewhat.

Basically i'm looking for 120+mph Terminals whilst retaining good driveability.

My plans at this stage are purely bolt on:

Deal with any other issues if & when they arrise;)

1. HKS2530 or similar low mount turbos, although the GT25/30 seems a lot cheaper...?

http://www.horsepowerinabox.com/HPIAB2/prod15.htm

Or can the standard turbos be rebuilt using larger 'steel' wheels with a HiFlow as I've had good results in the past with this?

2. SARD 700cc Injectors

Will these run with Standard ECU?

3. Power FC

Car already has full 3" exhaust and Pod filters, and GTR cooler should suffice.

Will this get me 450+rwHP and 120+mph terminals..?

Any other suggestions? or good places to buy parts?

Cheers

Lindsay

450hp you will be pushing it with that set up, i own a R32 GTR its got HKS2530's,HKS Cams, Sard 700cc injectors, upgraded fuel punp, Trust drag intercooler, Twin 3inch system from turbo's, Link engine management and AVC-R on 20psi i pump out 330kw's

I want top mount twin turbo's for it then the power figure will really rise, the 2530's are limiting the power output but they boost up quickly and smoothly so its a fairly streetable car at the moment

I have seen a write up on the GT2530 turbo's and they say they are pretty much the same as the HKS turbo's apart from the price...

No these will not run with standard ECU. Power FC is really the best option to take regarding the tuning a of a GT-R.

450hp at the wheels is possible with the the GT2530/ HKS 2530's but you will need to run some pretty big boost to get it. An easier to get this power output is to get some nice cams for the RB26 i.e. 276deg.

This will make your car have excellent top end without the need of running big boost i.e. 20psi (over).

Cheer AS

Thx Guys.

It mentions what 'looks like' HKS 272 on the auction sheet!..?

Hopefully it does have the cams fitted :)

The GT25/30's seem a fair price from HPinabox, these are looking like a good option atm.

I do not want to turn it into a 'narrow high powerbanded' drag car, more of a flexible 'MC motorsport' club racer style thing.

So no one would reccomend the rebuilding of the standard turbos or knows anyone that has done this...?

carefull with these turbos as they are not true bolt ons the compressor out and turbine out put are different to the gtr turbos and will require custom piping and bump pipes

550's with safc

Thx Simon.

Not really worth it then, as 550cc injectors are no cheaper than 700cc units and the SAFC is only about $500 cheaper than the Power FC......may as well spend the extra :(

carefull with these turbos

You mean the GT25/30's..?

I am actually leaning towards GT-SS atm....closely followed by 2530s...Hmmm...decisions decisions :)

your right on the money

here a combo i will make 450rwhp(walk in the park) if tuned well

APEXI pfc (avcr is a good boost controller aswell)

320hp garret turbos or HKS 2530 (stay away from the horse power in a box set)

700cc sard injectors

Tomei poncams 260deg 9.15mm lift (or close to)

Tomei adjustable cam wheels (take the time to adjust them)

afms 20/25rb or z32

turbo back exhaust (twin 3" dumps into 3.5" single good place to start)

custom piping to the new from turbos to 80mm afms(3')

this combo is good for a great deal more than what you want but it will give great drivability and future development.

my car running 530rwhp

rich madsons r33 on good fuel have seen run 550rwhp+

and these cars on std internals have been going hard for sometime now with out a single problem.

hope it helps

pete :cheers:

    • Could someone post some pictures of the factory Jack , tools, spare tire and how they were in a 1998 ER34 2 door skyline originally?
    • UPDATE: Hi all!  As we are getting towards the end of this thread where I’ll showcase final dyno numbers and graph, I wanted to provide an update. Tao from HyperGear has done an amazing job building the custom divided T3 housing for the G30. Communication was flawless, price was great, and now the housing is estimated to arrive in 7-10 days! Very very pleased. I must add, if someone is looking for an affordable turbo and end up reading this thread, I would recommend HyperGear. Genuine brands are the way to go as their proven reliability, predictable performance, and there’s a plethora of information available for specs, flow, and more. This HyperGear recommendation is based on their excellent communication, dedication, and willingness to listen to their customers. I particularly liked their ability to create custom adaptations tailored to specific needs, which is a HUGE benefit over other brands. And if we consider the HyperGear provided dyno results, it adds reassurance knowing their turbos can compete against genuine brands. Next update will be after the dyno!  
    • I've previously seen people post up "dress up bolt kits" for RBs but don't remember seeing them specify the full contents. I can only really suggest you grab the verniers and start measuring, and keep in mind the cam cover and timing cover bolts are both quite specific with a wider unthreaded section where the bushes sit, that will make it hard to get aftermarket replacements which tend to be all thread (set screws) or for longer bolts a flat section with a shorter threaded section at the end
    • I believe there was a similar one posted by @duggyphresh. They were re-routing their battery positive cable in the way I am also trying to achieve. Sorry, I’m new to this forum, so was a bit late to the party by a few months and so reignited the old thread, as I wanted to know how they got on with doing it.
