Hi all , as usual trying to make things easy if I can ...

For all you people who have HKS's GT2835 Pro S or GT3037 Pro S , I need to know a couple of things about clearance between the compressor housing and the std RB20/25 exhaust manifold . From specs I have both these turbos use TO4E .50 A/R compressor housings and I'd like to think they clear the std manifold by a reasonable margin .

I have always liked HKS's turbine housings because they are biased a bit more towards performance that Garrett's offerings ie the volute passage and nozzle is a better shape . There is a chance that using a real GT3076R (the one that looks like a GT3037S but without the trumpet mouth inlet insert) with Garretts IW GT30 housing that the comp housing may be where the exhaust manifold lives . I'm wondering how I would go with the Pro S turbine housing on this GT3076R 52 trim turbo thats in the wings next year . If I can luck out with a better housing design and clear the manifold it makes life easy .

Just on the Pro S housings , the waste gate vent path looks like it had some serious thought put into it (flat valve not small either) and the dump pipe should not be difficult to re create if its expensive/impossible to get .

Another thought was trying this combination out on HKS's cast low mount exhaust manifold though I have a feeling that the engine mount may get in the way .

Thoughts - particularly from that fella with the 3037 Pro S on the RB25 .

Cheers Adrian .

Not the best pictures but from what I can remember the 2835 comp housing was pretty close to the manifold - I could get my dad to measure for you if you want.

Th compressor housing clearance of the 3037 pro S with the 56T and also .68 rear clears the manifold with ease, i am still able to mount the factory exhaust heat sheild on there as well on the manifold, no clearance problems at all, only fun is just jiggling around to get the perfect fit (as in jiggling the housings and turning them to properly fit it. but no clearance problems what so ever, as well as the INTWASTE well the actuator just needs some modifying to fit and hold properly, Have no fotos at the moment as am away from normal computer, but if your happy to wait i can get them off to you when i get back, hope that helps.

As well as dump/front pipe fabrication, most good exhaust shops should be able to custom one as the funny 5 bolt flange on them. so far so good.

Hope that helps out disco, as for proper measure of housing to manifold heat shield space ummm a good centermeter id say but would have to measure

Cheers

Thanks fellas , I guess its a case of a trial fit in the end . I remember asking ages ago for pics of the 3037 Pro S exhausting because the turbine size difference (compared to 2835 version) would not have worked . From the pics I'd say the people who machined these housings off set the turbo slightly and it shows when you compare the two turbine outlets in relation to the sealing groove .

Adam how do you find the power characteristics of that 3037 56T with the .68 A/R housing ? Depending on how much off boost urge I can find I was thinking of using the .87 .

Cheers Adrian .

I find the power characteristics as follows, due to that my engine has been fresh rebuilt so im still running on a lighted tune of 244 rwkw's until i am able to dyno after the first couple of thousand km's. In comparision as am unable to take past 3.5 K rpm for first thousand can only really report on findings so far, I have found that with the .68 housing that the boost will start making from about 2600 rpm, there is plenty of torque with the new turbo and i cannot really post much else until i am able to open it out further.

Although i will keep you guys updated when i do with dyno graph and also will update further on power characteristics when this happens,

But in the mean time, AAA+++ in my books, also on another note the .68 housing wasnt a by choice option, although my opinion i would have gone the .87 housing as well, or .82, but as im not chasing too larger numbers at the moment i have settled with the .68 housing

Hope that helps

Cheers Adam

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
