A proper GT30R unit number 700382-12 would work better with that .82AR turbine housing . GT3040's particularly the Garrett marketed one's are laggy because the GT40 compressor is too big for the GT30 turbine . A better compressor match is the GT37 series wheels used in HKS's GT3037 and that above mentioned Garrett marketed GT30R . In fact that GT30R uses the identical cartridge (CHRA) as HKS's GT3037 56 trim .

Many turbo shops try to say that GT30R 700382-12 is not available in Australia which is B/S , I know Brett from GCG can get them as no doubt others in Aus can if they try . Garrett at Chippingnorton may not stock them but not all Garrett turbos here have to be sourced through Jeffs joint .

Cheers A .

we run .82 on customer cars, start building boost at 2800rpm and see full at 4000rpm. very streetable and run 11.75 @ 121mph at track. lag will also depend on boost controller and intake runner length, cam timing, overall tune. I think 1.06 would be good for track if your on the bottle, otherwise too big, definetaly not streetable.

as my heading states.

just wondering when boost would be likely to come on. looking at getting a gt3040 with 0.7front,1.06rear housings. has anyone got this on there car.

cheers dan

    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
    • If there's oil in with the clutch, I hope it finds its way out even if that hole has a cover/grommet 😛 I don't want oil near my cars clutch! 😛 Interested to hear the answer about covering it, I'm assuming a bung for a gearbox from another car that has a grommet to suit.
