its a gtx but not a 3071r its bigger low mount still +pump gas should see 380kw ish on pump as my chat today with the tuner he is surprised so far and can't believe the torque this combination makes he thinks ill see 400kw atw and around 950nm ill be happy with what ever it ends up with. the aim is for 22-23 psi @8200rpm limit

380kw on E85 pump gas or petrol? I would be ultra surprised to see that high on petrol on a GT30 hotside which brings me to - which GTX is it? 3200rpm for 1bar is pretty epic... and it clearly is bigger than a GTX3071R if you are talking those figures, if it is still a 2.5 then I might have to rethink what I think of the GTX if it comes together like you are saying!

Watching with much interest.

its on petrol and yep a gt 30 frame i have not seen any skylines use this turbo yet so im interested as much as you,i have read it spools better than a gtx3076 on evo's so looks the same on skylines to,the only thing i think ill have a issue with is the fuel pump i forgot to put a bigger one in.its only a nismo pump and it will run out of gas in that range i belive.

it is 100 % gtx garrett just not one ive seen being used much on skylines big on evo's in the states, once the cat is out of the bag im sure it will be used more.

by the way anyone doing a Hks low mount manifold and turbo don't use -10 fittings they don't fit in the space.

Interesting. When you said 380kw on pump I started figuring the possibility it was a GTX3576R but then you said it was a GT30 which now has me completely befuddled (I only know of GTX3067R, GTX3071R and GTX3076R and you've ruled them all out!). Regardless, if it is a RB25 still then the spool you have reported is insane compared to what I'd expect from anything bigger than a GTX3071R so very much looking forward to results... or even confirmation of displacement.

When will the tune be completed?

Lol what can I say guys, the planets are aligned today = early wake up (oh and a 9mth old baby waking up)

wait till they get older it gets no better,o and wait till you have three,ill be able to tell you what a mad house is in Aug this year.

did you see about the BBQ

the gtx 3576 is a nice turbo,and its still a rb25 it comes down to good set up,i think as boost rises so will the lag but we will see soon.

im dying to get my F^%$ car back 8 working day tune it better be the best one ive ever had

unheard of !!!

they probably like it so much, there using it for some after hours quiet road flogging sessions,

R & D :woot:

Ok cars back but fuel ran out as I knew it would but I forgot all about it when I took it so the numbers are [email protected] psi went to 17 psi and made 347 kw looking at the dyno graphs it will hit 390-400 easy @22psi full boost at the moment is at 3400 rpm dyno graph up soon as I'm still at Pulse racing, not a bad job I thing more info when I drive it

    • Yup. You can get creative and make a sort of "bracket" with cable ties. Put 2 around the sender with a third passing underneath them strapped down against the sender. Then that third one is able to be passed through some hole at right angles to the orientation of the sender. Or some variation on the theme. Yes.... ummm, with caveats? I mean, the sender is BSP and you would likely have AN stuff on the hose, so yes, there would be the adapter you mention. But the block end will either be 1/8 NPT if that thread is still OK in there, or you can drill and tap it out to 1/4 BSP or NPT and use appropriate adapter there. As it stands, your mention of 1/8 BSPT male seems... wrong for the 1/8 NPT female it has to go into. The hose will be better, because even with the bush, the mass of the sender will be "hanging" off a hard threaded connection and will add some stress/strain to that. It might fail in the future. The hose eliminates almost all such risk - but adds in several more threaded connections to leak from! It really should be tapered, but it looks very long in that photo with no taper visible. If you have it in hand you should be able to see if it tapered or not. There technically is no possibility of a mechanical seal with a parallel male in a parallel female, so it is hard to believe that it is parallel male, but weirder things have happened. Maybe it's meant to seat on some surface when screwed in on the original installation? Anyway, at that thread size, parallel in parallel, with tape and goop, will seal just fine.
    • How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSPT male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSPT reducing bush? I am making the assumption the OEM sender is BSPT not BSPP/BSP
    • I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use
    • I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.
    • You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.
