new owner of a 32 gtr, in panel n paint shp atm, jus some questions about the setup

-is it a sequential type system?

-is it 1 manifold with 2 turbos on it or 2 manifolds, 1 for each, each running on 3 cylinders

-getting aftermarket gear, are 2 wastegates needed? im guessin ye because of the 2 turbos...

-ive seen a few ads for parts and it shows 2 seperate manifolds?

-a common question.... single turbo VS twin turbo?

any other information about how the engine works would be greatly appreciated. im familiar with my old SR not thi engine :)

2 manifolds, 1 for each, 3 cylinders

the stockers have internal wastegates with actuators attached. you can goto bigger twins and they will come with upgraded internal wastegate and actuators. you would only need twin external gates for a large twin setup, like gt2835 or larger in pairs

>> -ive seen a few ads for parts and it shows 2 seperate manifolds?

yes its basically two 3 cyclinder manifolds, v shaped. 1 turbo per manifold

>> -a common question.... single turbo VS twin turbo?

depends on budget, power goal, wha u want to do with the car and if you care about defects, looks in engine bay, use of air intake etc. do a search there was a massive single vs twin on the rb26 thread about 5 months ago

    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
