Its not about that........

Thread updated with my RB25DET added

Please return my post count figures It is a trading saftey feature and puts the fears at ease and as far as whoring goes it shows solid dedication to the forum and as a contributing member i think this is shit. 15668

Oil and water cooled and the stock oil and water lines line directly up the same as the origional Aaron

Always glad to help Now need.......more.......revs......4500rpm......too weak hahahaha Its so rude to have rev limiter at 4500 rpm it gives you a little taste of the turbo then takes it all away

The cartridges we use now are Garrett water cooled and oil lubricated and cooled. We do not buy these in kits ready to just attatch the housings. The Vg housing starts its life as the turbo on the right and after machining is like the one on the left. This improves airflow by a huge amount and fiting the larger turbine and compressor wheel to fill the now highflowed housings greatly increases throughput of air. The new Garrett cartridges are slightly smaller than the bearings that we put in them so the interior diameter of the cartridge where it holds the bearings as its the bearings that hold the shaft not the cartridge. The housings used are indeed Nissan housings made by Hitachi The reason for using new Garrett cartridges is because as far as we know we have exhausted all of our recources that supplied us with the older cartridges. The T3 BB cartridges cannot be used in conjunction with new journal bearings. I also might just add that we have exhausted all of Garrett Australia's supply of compressor wheels for these turbo's and have had to import from America and even New Zealand Aaron

Coils are sold pending payment

Gary while everyone appreciates your input on your experiances this in no way affects the warranty that we stand by incase of a failure which has never happened. The thread asks of experiance with our turbo's...... I do not know where your journal bearing experiances came from... Perhaps with cars that came from the manufacturer released with journal bearing turbo's. Which you have not provided any background on. And whilst every one of your posts has been biased towards GCG turbo's given the experience with them, You have not experienced these turbo's nor are you and Paul sticking to the topic. Regardless of failures in your 15 year experience with bush/plain bearing turbo's technology changes and we move forward with it improving the life of the turbo and standing by the guarantee we provide with them. If there was a problem with 3 GTR's that had oil starvation problems then you should have spoken to the mechanic and offered your knowledge on how to resolve these issues as its not only a problem for the turbo but the engine aswell and im sure the last thing on your mind when this happens is your turbo. We provide the modification requirements with these turbo's and as far as i can see as long as they are carried out they can last a long time. IF... they do fail they are covered under our warranty which is unlike any other turbo manufacturer. We also sell the whole Garrett, HKS, Greddy, Biagio and Apexi range of turbo's aswell. Keep in mind that mass produced cars with journal bearing turbo's in the early 90's and even up to date model cars used journal bearings and are still running now. Trucks in particular cover thousands and thousands of kilometers on journal bearing turbo's. Also good luck with your group buy Gary... Would you like me to discuss the advantages of paying half the amount for these turbo's compared to the GCG and disrupt your thread without me having any prior experience with them turbo's ?

Thanks for the great feedback guys makes me happier waking up in the morning knowing everyone is happy

Offers?????

Dave do a photoshoot of my car kthnx

Few days late but

The Factory oil setup to the turbo has restrictors in the banjo bolts and oil lines. By removing these it increases the flow of oil through the lines to the turbo and is a vital part of the cooling and lubrication. The engines oil preasure forces the oil through the dedicated lines which will continue to do so until you have no oil preasure, this could be a result of a few things like underfilling oils to dangerous levels or when the engine is on its last legs which is not hard to tell As far as lubrication and oil cooling goes aslong as the instructions are followed the waranty stands at 1 year RTB and is a compulsary modification for these turbo's. It is very simple to remove the restrictors and instructions are given with the turbo at point of sale and have also been previously posted in this thread. There is no babying period that is really required for these turbos but to prolong the life of your engine it is recommended you let the car come close to opperating temp before giving it a hard time. And as far as cooling down goes a simple turbo timer set to around 1 minute 30 seconds + will be suffice. This is recommended regardless of having an aftermarket turbo. Cheers Aaron

Yeah and let it get scratched during installation. Good work Wil

We have received our shipment of cartridges for the T3 Highflows so for all the people that wanted them late last week they are ready to be made again. Only brand new Garrett cores will be used now for all Highflows. We hould also have results on a 300zx set of highflows very soon. We use GTIR Compressor covers. fit larger compressor wheels and slightly larger but better flowing turbines aswell. Aaron

This has taken a dive

hahahaha ok Ill bring the tripod and stuff next time to get some nice chasing action shots. I were limited to wall huggers because of no press pass to get on track and shakey hand syndrome lol *hugs tripod

Pm's replied not too many things left Cheers Guys

oooooooooooook vid is here very basic recording with completely seteady shost of the straight 4th corner and a few other bits but i think most cars are on there towards the end of the day quality is pretty good http://rapidshare.de/files/21858485/Oran_P...-05-06.wmv.html i made it this way so its good for editing

This is a Stock T3 This is a Highflow

With an safc II or a NEO AFC 210-220 will be a reasonable target Stan had 211rwkw with just an safc 2 on 11 psi of boost (this is correct stan???) Keep in mind it is an r34GTT Auto Are you after pictures of the inside of the rear housing ? ie. of the turbine ?

With the Highflow providing alot more airflow the stock computer struggles to cope with it and leaves huge flat spots open. So along with all other turbo upgrades you wont get anywhere near the amount of power increase without some sort of engine management. Any power figure would be a guess without a computer to manage the key factors. Depending on your current timing etc it would be safer to do a diagnostic check whilst on a dyno and just see. Same turbo Bernard They are reacting great with the manuals also.

The compressor cover is either VG30 or Rb25 Compressor wheel is made by Garrett The core is either a new Garrett T3 core that we bore out to fit plain bearings or a T3 from the early Rb30et turbo's All internals for the T3 Highflows are Garrett and Biagio kits are only used for T28's Turbine and Shaft are also Garrett The Ball bearing T3 cartridges cannot be reused with the bearings and shafts we use for the highflows as the diameter of the shaft and internal diameter of the cartridge differ too much. VG housing on the left Standard T3 on the right. The spine is alot larger and so is the internal capacity of the housing. Aaron

We are only after the centre cartridge the rest is throw away These are our usual stock pile of the VG turbo's with the largest T3 housings Nissan provided. And here are the Cartridges we are in desperate need of which unfortunately are identical to all T3 Cartridges on the outside. http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/8539/cidn9l0mc3rry6np.jpg http://img220.imageshack.us/img220/9636/ciduwzdtxo1gh9ld.jpg http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/8207/cidvaau3ah1eu7ul.jpg

Great to see all the discussion about these turbo's Lag = horsepower With the enlarged compressor housing and compressor wheel, VG exhaust housing and larger turbine there will be a little more lag trav but larger area allows more airflow which in turn makes more power. The core/cartridge is Garrett The Bearing System is Garrett's GT spec Journal bearing system with a 360 degree thrust washer in place to improve oil flow and cooling efficiency. The compressor wheels are Garrett and so is the shaft and turbine. We use the Biagio overhaul kits on the T28's as we cannot bore and fit the Journal bearings that Garrett can provide as the shaft diameter is too large. We have bought in the Biagio T04Z's GT3540 GT3076 and Disco Potato equivalents and should have some dyno figures soon. Biagio even compete in the Formula Truck Series, Pick-up Racing, Drag Racing and Speed Boat Racing and its obvious at every track of the power they have overseas by the advertising. I am one of the only Biagio Distributors in Australia. The Internal specifications we would like to keep a trade secret as do most builders The only bad thing is that we have nearly exhausted all of the VG rear housings from the single turbo 300zx's in Australia and have to seek more from Japan. If anyone knows of a stock pile of them and old VL turbo's we will buy a pallet full per week if we could. If we cannot find any we will have to go to Straight oil cooled and lubricated and have the water lines blocked off for RB's Aaron
