New Turbo fitted, Take 2.
New Turbo fitted, Take 2.
Got my DSR430 replaced this weekend with a GT35/TO4 hybrid, went for a quick spin and Im impressed at the power. Im currently running about 19psi but its hard to tell because im having trouble with wheel spin up to 3rd gear. was quite good to hear from my friend how much more power i had than his 1uz powered 130.
pics to come

Re: New Turbo fitted, Take 2.
shame about those dsr turbo's eh,
there reputation seems to go with them everywhere
good to hear you've gone for a proper turbo
engine rebuilds are worth a lot more than the difference between a cheap turbo and a decent one

Re: New Turbo fitted, Take 2.
The DSR wasn't to fault, it was a combination of me stuffing up and wrong turbo application.
I would have kept the DSR430 if I could have found a smaller exhaust housing for it..

Re: New Turbo fitted, Take 2.
I bet you double checked for foreign objects in everything
Best of luck with it. How are the EGT's now?
You'll just have to wait for the road to dry out to stop the wheel spin
Cheers,

What i realised afterwards was i have 4wd

But yes I triple checked, im also currently removing the sump to add a better oil return as I also think this was adding to the oiling issue. I thought it was big enough but i had a bottle neck

Sump removal sucks..

Kiwiterrano: Honestly as soon as I put my stock CT20 on to the 5L it had as much if not more power than a 1KZ, its a awesome conversion.

Re: New Turbo fitted, Take 2.
Right after fixing the oil return line my truck is running pretty much perfect, max EGT 500 deg.
The new turbo is quite big, gives everyone the fear LOL
Now next mission is to fit aqua-mist using pure methanol to provide more fuel at about 12psi. Oh and to utilize the cooling benefits LOL.

Ive never seen a 5L pump in bits but do they have a pressure sensor etc? Or do you need to get a boost compensator? sounds like a sweet build, with a lot of power, and like your pump is somehow tuned to perfection that its not over fueeling all the time. be keen to know what you've done to it.
Re: New Turbo fitted, Take 2.
Dayne; I wasn't able to get any pics over the weekend cause my wife had the camera and she was away, but i have tomorrow off and I should be able to get something..
Oh, and i might be needing something a little bigger for another project, but that's hush hush..
WILLFERRIS; hey mate, the 5L pump is a non compensated pump, it does puff the tiniest bit of smoke before the onset of boost but you cant hardly see it.
once you get the exhaust wheel/ housing combo sorted it cant over fuel once on boost just because more fuel it runs the more boost it runs to compensate because im not using a wastegate.
That and the fact my exhaust wheel is 6mm bigger than the stock on it is allowing my back pressure to be very very low by comparison.
I might have to invest in a mechanical locker, should sort the traction issue a bit.. On the gravel i had it light up on me in 4wd!! try that in a Terrano!! JK's!!
Oh BTW im looking at starting a small business fitting turbo kits so anyone with a non turbo diesel need convincing, come take my truck for a spin, a friend of mine is probably still giggling like a little girl LOL.. Oh and I am a mechanic by trade, 8 years in the job with diesel/petrol euros etc etc.. Just as a side thing when we can arrange time.

Re: New Turbo fitted, Take 2.
Rebuilding and turboing the 5l in my truck so similar specs as you are doing are in my long term pipe dream. Have you done anything to the motor? thicker head gasket or anything? Can things be strengthened at all? How many ks are on it?
Cheers,
Pete

Re: New Turbo fitted, Take 2.
Im quite happy with my results, and I never set out to build a race car just a tow wagon for my race car.. but if you want to be embarrassed come round I might even leave my trailer hitched on.

He was basically answering a question....
Re: New Turbo fitted, Take 2.
Meh.. I was actually saying that because a friend of mine has a TD27 in his terrano running a rather big turbo and massive boost and I sent that as link to him..
