Good luck with that turbo Abe, i've just been recommended a 3076 with .6 rear. Reckons it'll be good for 280rwkw!

Got off the phone to hypergear and he said that would be enough to go about 320rwkw or so....for something like 260-280 he recommended a AT28G2 or something similar to a GT2871R for response and good hard hitting power

Pretty sure the XR6t rears are a 1.06 housing, being a 4ltr motor. I'd be dropping it to a .83 or .6, depending on how you want response to be

Response even from a 0.83 will be laggy as f**k considering the stock ones are 0.48 or something

dont quote me on those figures Dave.....thats what i have just been told so.....not my own findings and i have f**k all clue when it comes to turbos but others that know there shit will know the figures around it.....

Yeah Simon @ Morpowa said it would be pretty crazy, but with the smaller .6 rear response wont be too bad! Wish i had of grabbed the one in the for sale thread. Pump and injectors for me first i think.

Hmmmm and they're on my shopping list too Dale!

On a brighter note, got some cf eyebrows off ebay. Picked them up and both are cracked! Seller is sending 2 more out tomorrow and i get to keep the fecked ones! :)

Thanks, ill let you know how i go with this.

is that a 1.06 rear housing Abe?

No, its a .8X (its a 0.8 something)

and run an external gate*. that pissy little internal has trouble coping.

*with a big f**k off screamer pipe.

As much as i would like to, no. It going on my daily.

well, external gate is going to be a minimum. seriously. that tiny little internal gate has trouble properly handling the boost.

*correction, smaller turbine housing, might just get away with it.

i got the same ones i reckon.. on didnt fit, and cracked, got new one, sent the wrong one, got new one, still didnt fit right.. cbf afterwards.

there shit!

Yeah, i just picked mine up, hoped on the for sale and saw the same turbo for $1800, i could have saved money....oh well.

The turbo i got is running a 12psi actuator, and according to my research - browsing here and looking at Lithium, Mafia, and Cube's posts, they recommend the 0.8 rear housing. They also said that there is boost control issues, but that only really happens with the non genuine Garrett housings. The rear housing on mine says Garrett, and has 0.8 stamped in the exhaust input :S

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
