From the compressor maps of the real GT3071R it should get there but I wouldn't count on it being responsive in large housing single scroll form . Didn't you used to say that a HKS GT2835 Pro S hit the straps at about 280-300 Kw because its the same compressor wheel just without the cropping on the turbine blades . I do have one idea on ice but no hints just yet - pending ...

GCG was supposed to have had the GT3076R 52T though being a special order item it may not be discounted like that other IW GT3076R 56T you mentioned recently . I imagine its cheaper than HKS and you don't end up with the wrong turbine housing .

How did your friends 0.87 A/R housing go ?

Cheers A .

Not sure.. :) I do know Grepins GT2835ProS had boost drop issues over 270-280rwkw but he did manage to push over 300rwkw with working on improving the motors airflow via plenum, cams, exh. manifold etc etc. ~313rwkw from memory. If he were to hold the wastegate shoot power would shoot up over 300rwkw, possibly hks's wastegate flow is just a little too good once then pressure builds up behind the flap blowing it open.

So if thats the case and they are the same comp wheel which I wasn't aware of then yes it should do it with no real problems. :)

But from what I've seen its definitely not possible on a stock cam'd motor.

Steve with the .87? As I said above it made 320 something rwkw on a shade over 20psi. Its been some years so the details are beginning to fade. :) But it did go well and appears to hit the ceiling of what a few other GT3076 and hks3037ProS tend to make and initially he complained of lag from the .87 which I believe was sorted with cams and a better tuner.

He still floats around on these forums from time to time.

    • Should be more than fine, especially the overall fuel pressure would never exceed 3.5bar (assuming that thing never gets more than 0.5bar of boost in stock form). According to the chart, it's 11amps.
    • I definitely know the first rule here, look first, ask second. I've seen many people get roasted 😂 I found a few diagrams for the RB, but I'm yet to come across one for the VQ. From what I have read, the pump gets the +12v along with the FPCM, and it's the negative wire that gets passed through the resistor to regulate the voltage. So I assume I can just ground the negative wire at the pump to eliminate the FPCM control. But I really wanted to see the VQ circuit diagram first to make sure I understood it correctly. Once the new pump is in I'll do some testing to see how it behaves, and in the meantime, I'll keep looking for a wiring diagram. Thanks for your help mate, your time is greatly appreciated.    
    • Maybe? I have the Supercheap ToolPro low thingo. It has a somewhat smaller diameter lifting "bowl" than you would expect on a workshop grade trolley jack, and a split rubber pad to suit that diameter. It clears the "N1" style skirts I have. Probably wouldn't if the jack's bowl and a suitably larger rubber block were in use. Having said that though.....you only need the rubber block to exist on the inner side of the pinchweld, so could carve away any rubber that fouled the skirt, leaving some there for "insurance" </simples>
    • I used to do that (sills with rubber jack block).. ... then I got side skirts, and there's no way for the jack to actually work there, the jack pad itself on the jack is too big. Is the answer to use a... smaller (?) jack? Hmmm.
    • I have too much trauma from every skyline I've ever seen having crushed jack points/pinch welds lol.    Yep, works 100%, it's what I use when I'm using the quick jack. Don't know why I can't also bring myself to do the same thing when I'm using a jack. I blame the skyline PTSD.
