I have got my hands on the latest release from garrett.

i need a 25mm spacer between the turbo and the manifold,

and i need to fabricate a dump pipe but apart from that everything i had for the gt30 will plumb straight

in. I picked the .82 a/r so i will be very interesting to see the results.

here's a couple of pics. looks good

sorry

i just checked and my bad.

8mm is the dump flange bolts.

the t3 base bolts are 10mm.

and yes once it is spaced away from the manifold there is heaps of room.

i will start taking some progress pics when i get home from work.

Is this the internally gated T3 housing that Garrett have been promising all year, and part of last?

What is the used unit beside it? It appears to have a Garrett logo on the compressor housing too.

And most importantly, can you post up the CHRA ID tag number too please?

I'm going to be interested in the progress pics.

cheers

Yes very interesting , hope they are available in quantity !

Dale the CHRA number would be the same for any cartridge with the same comp/turbine so its the complete assembly or unit number you want . Something worth noting is the part number stamped on the side of the exhaust housings mounting flange in the second shot . This would almost certainly be the turbine housings part number .

What I want to know is can these housings be grafted onto the GT37R cartridges because they have the potential to be better than the GT3540R cartridge for the larger/est RB - just need a suitable exhaust housing .

Awesome news!!!!

Out of curiosity.... :(

Do they have a .63 internal gate gt3540?

Hi all , I got to look at a couple of these this afternoon - yep .63 and .82AR ratio .

The Garrett part numbers for the housings themselves (according to the packaging) is 771300-5 for the .82 and 771300-6 for the .63 .

The waste gate flat valve looks to be the same size as the IW GT28 housings and there is room for a larger disc as well . Doing a "high flow" on this valve is common practise on souped up XR6T's so no reason why these could not be modified the same way . BUT - always that but - the greater the area of the disc the more area exhaust manifold gasses under pressure have to work on to try and force it open . I kid you not and don't laugh , I've seen people using what looked like old bed springs trying to keep this valve shut .

The rule is if you run high boost pressure do everything you can to have the exhaust manifold pressure down somewhere near inlet manifold pressure . You don't need massive exhaust manifold pressure to drive the turbine just sufficient gas velocity by thermal expansion .

Back to those housings , Brett at GCG has I think five of each AR size ATM so be quick if you need one soon . Had I been better organised I would have had some pics but no doubt they'll turn up .

Cheers Adrian .

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
