Very nice - actually thought it might make a little more, but that is still very healthy and should have a wicked power delivery! Look forward to reports on how it drives :)

Is that a Dyno Dynamics dyno?

It will be great fun to drive. Hopefully Disco has time to drive by my work on the way back home.

The instant response of the GT-RS is what makes it a fun streeter, with a bit more top end it should be even better on open roads like Bells Line.

Has anyone done a comparison of the 3076R 0.82 against a Precision 5558 0.63 which is what I run now. I was torn between these two turbos and Yavuz from Unigroup told me they are more or less identical on RB25s but that the Precision does start to shine more on high boost which is what their strength is. The power delivery from the 0.63 5558 is also snappy when it comes on and not smooth /boring, that is what I wanted so I am happy.

Saying that if I had to do a street RB25 again I would go the 'peoples choice' which is the 3076R 0.82 just to try it out and knowing it is a winner.

You know mine and Kurtis's are a good comparison, he makes a few KW more with 3psi more boost but both cars are amazing to drive everywhere in the rev range and are setup very similar.

5558 0.63 vs 3037 56T 0.82

Well I'd say Scott found the limits of the GTRS and it sounds like a good result from the littlish fella .

My ask was firstly this has to be a nice car to drive as in drivability start up consumption etc . I left it up to him how much boost to run and that turned out to be 18 pounds . Not sure what brand dyno Insight use .

Anyway I'll find out what it drives like later in the day when I pick it up . Andrew not sure if I can get to you today because as you know its a bit away from my district and not the place to hang about for the afternoon peak hour - or four . May be able to meet at that place on the weekend ?

So as to not be off this threads topic the 52T GT30R is still a possibility and I do remember reading here that someone went from a GTRS to a 52T GT3076R and had virtually no lag penalty . As mentioned Mr Mafia got over 300 wasps from his 3076R and that , like a GTRS , was wearing the small or 0.63 AR IW turbine housing . Beating the heat seems to be the big issue and it sounds like E70/E85 or in Mr Mafias case water methanol injection is doing just that .

Now to give the wallet a rest a just drive the thing , cheers A .

Looking forward to seeing the result for this car too: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/417832-precision-pt6766-vs-forcedperformance-gt3794r-hta-dyno-shootout/page__view__findpost__p__6735544

It's a RB25 with a GT3076R-HTA (essentially a HTA-spec 52trim GT3076R) and will be tuned on E85 - would make for interesting comparison with the PT and Garrett turbos.

I really wanted to go that path as i have heard nothing but good things.... Will keep an eye on it too!

Yep FPs done a lot with those HTA conversions . David Buschur really like that one a screwed a lot of Hp and torque out of an Evo engine with one . As mentioned before note that these use the next family up (T04S) compressor housing and provided you can push significantly higher boost than most here do they make good numbers . Easily the sorts of numbers people though quite reasonable from a conventional GT3582R in recent years .

Hmmmm sounds tasty! So an improvement over a GTX by the sounds....

I realise it is a bit of a hike home but if you were in the area up to 3pm I have a bit of time.

I've been making noises for some time now that I felt the GTX3076R may be too little too late (from Garrett) due to the existence of the FP GT3076R - and that it seems like the perfect successor to the 56T GT3076R for better spool and better flow, for some reason for a large part the FP HTA stuff is largely overlooked but the Precision stuff has got quite trendy in terms of high flowing billet 'custom' jobs. I now find myself really hoping I'm right in regards to the match to an RB25, and very much looking forward to BRI73Y's results :)

Me too, will watch closely.... Mostly just for interest as it should be a good mix!

I've always wanted a 52 trim GT3076 with something like a .73 housing. Would be good for around 280rwkw (on an Aussie dyno).

Then again a HKS GT2835 would be fantastic too - just stupidly pricey and needing a fancy dump pipe.

It will be great fun to drive. Hopefully Disco has time to drive by my work on the way back home.

Looking at those graphs, the GT-RS looks very dissapointing in comparison to the gt30, even my gtx on 16psi and 98 matches it all over the graph, difference being i have external gate, just goes to show the big turbo's can pretty much match a GT-RS down low ( on the dyno anyway) but blow it away with some more boost.

GT-RS is very snappy on/off throttle compared to the 2835ProS so a better thing in cut and thrust city traffic. The ProS needs a slightly bigger throttle opening to get the car to move so despite dyno printouts looking similar down low they feel very different on the road. Once the roads open up the ProS has more legs and is fantastic particularly 80-110km/h when overtaking.

The GT3040 and GT3076 feel like slightly larger framed turbos and are not as responsive in traffic but have a whole lot more to give once they come on boost. The much maligned GT3040 is very close in performance to the new TS GT3076 with a few hundred rpm difference in boost threshold which could be due to tuning as much as compressor size or TS turbine housing. IMO the GT3040 is a budget GTX3076 and all it needs is someone to use E70-85 to prove it but no one has done it yet. Given the cost vs gain I wish I had stuck with my GT3040 although the GT3076 is a better thing it just wasn't worth the coin changing over.

I was due to prove this but the plan changed, if anyone else wants to step up and give it a shot then the turbo is up for grabs!

Scott reckons he likes one of the GT3071Rs - possibly the GTX one can't remember .

I also agree its a great pity Garrett or HKS never made GT30 turbine housings in 0.73 AR with T3 flanges . T25 flanged HKS ones work well but not much good to us .

I think with some mild head work and cams just about any GT30 based turbo should get close to or over 300 Kw on E70 or E85 .

About my bus , it was set up with the Tech Edge WB input rather than the OE probe and we both think that may not have been way to go . Scott reckons the std probe would be more accurate around stoi and my Tech Edges probe is a little out compared to his NTK wide band - by about 0.2 lambda .

He wants me to come back after a few tank fulls of E70 to be certain all the United E85 and Ultimate is out of the system . He set it a smidge rich just keep it safe until then .

I think he prefers the Injector Dynamics EV14 injectors and said he could get closer to ideal idle and cruise AFRs with them .

ATM I don't know the Vipec software and he said he'd load it for me next time with his "template" of what goes where because there is a large range of gauge etc options with them .

I'd like to see the actual tables so I know what the numbers are like . I got to like my last PFC maps and I was finally getting real good part throttle torque and consumption .

Anyway another learning curve , cheers A .

got one to sell? based on prior feedback apparently these work better on SR's than 3076's do.

wouldnt mind testing that theory if priced right!

Run in tune done last night. FP HTA 3076 - RB25

Was completed at 10:30pm so not a lot of time spent on getting it perfect.

Good enough to turn some k's before going back for final tune later next week.

    • One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching
    • Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.
    • You have no idea how many goddamn boxes I received these past three months haha Most have been put to use by now though, luckily
    • Not going to pretend I didn't do a bit of junky work this time around, but mostly due to the fact that some things I am not willing to spend days fixing right now, like wiring. I try to do most things properly the first time around.
    • Regardless of neglect or incompetence, fixing either is tedious and annoying. Most of the neglect on my car is definitely rust. I hope I can at least pass inspections later on and they won't fail the car due to slightly corroded hardlines. I was generous with rust converter and wax and it looks ok, most lines in the rear are hard to see properly anyways.  Definitely will test them though to make sure they don't rupture under pressure, in that case the car isn't going anywhere this year.
