Those results follow the usual trends , larger A/R turbine housing uncorks the hot side of the engine pressure balance equation and you often end up with the same power at lower boost pressure .

This is a good example of increasing the gas flow by removing a restriction , it also means lower charge air temps and lower fuel rail pressure so mostly good . The only downside is that the turbine spins up later in the engines rev range because the larger turbine housing passage means low gas velocity through the turbine housings nozzle until the engines revs climb a little higher .

Actually I always wondered what a GT3076R would be like with a 1.06 A/R GT30 turbine housing but its not a combination any ones tried as far as I know .

Throttle vs boost response works really well with larger A/R twin scroll housings but until Garrett gets the lead out and makes twin scroll twin integral gate turbine housings like IHI and a few other manufacturers do don't hold your breath .

Very interested to see how that real GT3071R 0.63 A/R build goes .

Noise , yep nearly always goes up because there is less pulse damping between the exhaust valves and the turbine housings nozzle .

Cheers A .

yep,

I did the same conversion on an Rb26 with the same turbo. I just drove the car for the first time with the 1.06 turbine housing and its heaps louder. Actually, i dunno if i can live with it with the trust 3.5 inch exhaust. I also found that the turbo performs like a light switch; its nothing, nothing, nothing, then wheel spin. I love that banshee wastegate scream though!

yeah its definatly much more agressive thats for sure

Sorry to dig up an old thread, but has anyone else since done this swap?

Really keen on getting some more information on it as im considering doing this at the moment. Id also be interested in seeing how much peak power increased by.

Turbine map for GT3582R/GT3540R .

Yep the 1.06 is quite a jump over the 0.82 , if you can look down the passages from the mount flange side with a torch the difference is very obvious .

Cheers A .

my power went from about 350rwkw to 380ishrwkw from the turbo upgrade.

Do you have a graph to compare boost response?

Sounds like it makes the car a lot less linear.

ps. I have a spare 1.06 rear for a GT35 if anyone wants it cheap....

That graph shows a hell of a lot more flow A so cheers.

GT, how did the thing feel? For someone like me who isnt going to use the car for drifting is it a worthwhile update? The 30kws comment is definitley encouraging as im going to use the car for drag racing primarily and that will make a big difference but dont want the thing to be too much of a dog to drive. You dont have any dyno charts do you?

Did you notice any boost control differences, as im having massive issues with my 44tial on the .82?

Brockas, cheers for the offer. Im in NZ and sending a housing may be a tad expensive.

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
