sorry to have another 3076r thread.

before i ordered my 3076r i did some research and i remember someone saying that when ordering the IW option, make sure you get the over 1" size wastegate rear housing.

my rear housing is a .63 IW however the wastegate hole is 1".

drumaddict on here has the same turbo but on a rb20 and first testing shows that it has ridiculous over boosting problems...

AM I CRAZY??? or is there a wastegate hole that is larger than the 1" like i first thought?

i have the option of getting mine ported out with a new flap welded on for a couple hundred bucks... but realistically i'd prefer to get the correct exhaust housing like i was after...

thanks in advance

The M version has the larger flapper from garrett of which is ~$100 more than the std.

They do nothing more than port out the hole and then shove a larger flapper on it. So for a couple hundred get the same done from the local turbo shop. Its really not worth wasting $$ on selling and buying the M version. Get yours modded; its the same thing.

Then... Ensure you run a bell mouth dump; don't go with a split unless the setup/inlet flange section is the same as the HKS split dump.

If you want a pic of the HKS dump I have a pic I saved from a kind person who posted pics of the HKSGT3037ProS :)

ooh yes please post the pic up

i'm hoping that i can get it exchanged and only pay the extra $100 rather than get mine modified - as this was what i requested initially (specifically larger than 1", i just didn't state that is was the 'm' version...)

*waits for pic... :)

    • Impossible to remove the housing while turbo is installed on the manifold on the engine. So I have to do it anyways. I plugged it so there will not be any debris in there. Will vacuum aswell 
    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
