I really wanted a t66 but have been offered a gt3540r 0.82 at a great price so am going to go with it.

What i want to know is how im going to identify the turbo as from what i know the compressor housing and exh is similar one most of the other similar sized garrett turbos.

Any information would be great. Have done a big search but come up with nothing.

SirRacer,

The standard GT3540 (aka GT35R or GT3540R or GT3582) uses a 61.36mm, 56 trim compressor wheel in a 0.70A/R compressor housing and a 62.32mm, 84 trim exhaust wheel, in either a 0.63, 0.82 or 1.06 A/R exhaust housing.

To identify the turbo, check the code on the Garrett ID tag on the core. If it says “706451-15” it is a GT35.

The exhaust housing A/R is cast into the side of the inlet to the exhaust housing.

Cheers.

My lists for the GT35R or GT3582R as Garrett now call them show the cartridge (CHRA) number as 706451-5 . The complete unit part numbers are 714568 -1 or -2 or -3 depending on which AR ratio turbine housing it has ie 1.06 , .82 or .63 in that order .

So if you order a GT3582R in .82AR ratio turbine housing its part number should be 714568-2 . Confirm that it has a 68mm 84 trim turbine and 82mm 56 trim compressor of the 6/12 blade GT family . The compressor cover should be a .70AR ratio TO4S type .

Cheers A .

cheers, its this part number 714568-2 and the comp cover is the .70

i just wasnt sure where to look as they arent labeled gt3540r on the garrett site anymore.

cheers

awesome turbo ! i have one on my rb30det - makes full boost before 3500 16psi

hey there, my setup will be very very similar to yours but im going to run more boost and some giggle gas for good measure

ill let you know how it goes. wont be put together for a few more months but have most of the parts now.

wind up the boost, come on you know you want to

Hey

I am running a stock bottom end (cast pistons) so 350rwhp is kinda enough for me for now.. with the 3 litre its all you need for the street. I guess i could go up to 22psi and make shitloads more but thats when i can afford it and get sick of the power.

I note in your sig... 350rwhp on 16psi.. any more power and its a waste.

As your not after more would you consider dropping to the GT30r? Or do you think it would pose greater traction problems?

Probably not. It drives pretty good atm. Pretty happy with the way its going. Dont really have a big desire to go for more power at the moment. But that will change when im ready to go to the track.

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
