The R34 housing is noticably bigger than the R33 one. I've had them side by side and photographed them for the forum but the pics have been lost in the migration.

That's why when you lot all started crapping on (:P) about VG30 turbos I pointed out that the R34 turbo also has a bigger exhaust housing which is why I got 228rwkw from an AUTO at 12.5 psi.

How do you know? And have you replaced it?

I am pretty sure because it has happened to other people before with R34's and I took notice. Then I spent an entire drag day deducing the problem. It was fine for one run but then do a second without 20-30 minute cooldown and the power loss was dramatic.

I have replaced it but not really tested because it doesn't really happen on the street. Only on the strip and down the straight on the track.

well i finally got the car going with this turbo setup although i have rebuilt the engine, got cams now etc so not just the turbo upgrade which makes it hard to note the difference in turbo response etc plus im still running the stock cooler and ecu at this stage as funds are not in my favour. Turbo duz feel nice although im only running stock boost and the car is definately faster that before with the stock turbo and running 13psi. just gotta eliminate stock cooler, ecu, dump pipe and injectors and i will be able to put a power figure down

it is IDENTICAL in every way shape and form.

I've had them both on my desk and measured every part of them and they are the same.

Don't go telling everyone and all the wreckers, or the prices will go through the roof again.

Are you hi-flowing your stock turbos with a VG-30 BB or a Garrett hi-flow.

I have these mods in my car now and which of these other mods do you think I should get or add first.

What I have now.

1: POD

2: TM duel boost control

3: Split Dump Pipe

4: Exhaust from Turbo 3" tip

5: A cheap FMIC

6 Apexi PFC W/HC

What do I need in addition first

1: Walbro fuel pump

2: Fuel reg

3: Z32 AFM

4: Injectors....which are the very best for a 1996 GTS-T SII?

5: cam and which kind and the benifit of them, exhaust and adjectable...why them and which brand is best?

I understand a lot of these questions may have been answered before but I have just arrived in Australia, so all your help is so much appreciated.

1: Walbro fuel pump I don't trust them. There are other options.

2: Fuel reg No.

3: Z32 AFM Yes.

4: Injectors....which are the very best for a 1996 GTS-T SII? Some Nismo 550cc ones will do.

5: cam and which kind and the benifit of them, exhaust and adjectable...why them and which brand is best? Adjectable? I recommend a pair of Tomei type b Poncams.

      High temp brake fluid?

      By Komdotkom · Posted

      Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!

      Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!

I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

      HKS Vcam Step Pro Issues

      By believer · Posted

      I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
