Impossible to remove the housing while turbo is installed on the manifold on the engine. So I have to do it anyways. I plugged it so there will not be any debris in there. Will vacuum aswell

ok. Yea, then I would need to remove the turbo and weld an adapter on to it instead, if I fuc* this one up.

Tried to make 1/8npt threads into compressor house of the turbo for my EBC. Threads got fu#ked and ended up with and elongated hole, so I do have good amount and nice threads 90% of the hole but 10% I only had 1-2threads there and rest of it is flush on that side of the hole.. So my idea is to do M12 x 1.25 to AN4 with braided lines instead of 1/8npt to 4mm vacuum silicone hose. and hopefully get a better thread. M12 is quite big and AN4 is a little bit bigger than 4mm (4.9mm inner diameter braided PTFE hose). but this should work. Thoughts? Otherwise I will weld and adapter onto the turbo.

Where is the most common place to locate it? Disappointing that Garrett won’t make a fitting for it since they know everyone will use it

After throttle body? I’ve heard that you should not do that. Even if you look at the diagrams they show you that you should take boost from turbo.

What do you mean with ”hot side”? From what I’ve heard is that you should take it as close to the turbo as possible?

Like on the intercooler pipe between turbo and intercooler? Still weird why they don’t put an output on the turbo since you will need one. There is one for the RPM of the turbo.. are they doing this because they want you to take the boost reference from somewhere else except the turbo?

That wouldn’t work especially well? 🤔

Where is the best location for boost pressure source when running mac 3port boost solenoid? my new turbo does not have a fitting for that on the compressor housing. how come Garrett make a turbo without that? im confused

What do you think? Is this the OEM S15 differential or NISMO one? The number someone wrote on diff housing tells that it is Nismo one but inside it looks like just a oem s15?

Somone knows if R33gtr engine under cover fits on the r32 gtr?

Well, valve cover has been removed a few times and oil has been added to the cams so shouldnt been any corrosion. Oil has been applied to the cylinders aswell so should be fine. But Will inspect before installation

Hi, I have a set of tomei procams thats been sitting in a new built engine for a few years on an engine stand. (Engine has never been running) what do you think about all the dark/black spots/dots on the lobes? Was about to install the engine but inspection was performed before installation. oil had been applied to the lobes, and there were still oil on them. Ive added oil to the cams a few times over the years.

Someone running AN aluminium hardlines as turbo oil/water feed/return line? thinking of going this route instead of the ptfe lines. everytime im trying to fit new fittings with the ptfe hose i end up with the hose chafing against engine or engine mounts or there Will be a Quite bad bend radius causing constant stress/force on the an fittings.

Well i tried to get in touch with Garrett but their Customer service is not very ”reachable”

Regarding oil restrictor for your GatX2867, which one are you going for ?

But A/R 0.64 i guess. .72 is available but belive as previous person mentioned.64 Will be more responsive

Gonna place an order on the: 849894-5002S GTX2867R 50/47MM (GTX2867R GEN 2 A/R 0,86.) Then

Money is not a problem but since i got a good deal on the GTX2860R gen2 aswell i thought that maybe its more worth to go that route. pushing more than the GTX2860R gen2 are capable of may put the transmission into a risk zone anyway?

The GTx2867 Will probably be alot more expensive.

Whats the minimum power you think you can run on that without promblems like surge etc

ok then Got offered GTX2860 or GTX2867. can get a good deal on the GTX2860R. shall i go for that then

True. But does it matter if its a good turbo? gbc220-350 is a newer model, but dont know really mich about them. Tried to catch someone who runs it on a sr20

Looks great! Sounds great aswell. maybe the gt2871 is the way to go then. the GTX2860R is a bit pricey

Well They are the prices i got
