What did you do about water and oil lines? also did it require a spacer plate?

How have you found the internal gate? No boost creep at the higher end? :thumbsup::D

Sorry for all the question!

Cheers mate

Water and oil lines were custom made by Pirtek, using some special grade braided lines.

Top mount manifold, so no spacer required.

Also got the HD actuator through Slide and it's working really well, no boost creep at all.

My setup is not the best comparison as i am running a RB30DET.

Here is a graph (run-in tune), just to show you the boost curve of my set-up.

Solid line is boost.

oh so when i tell him the pump is the problem last night no one listens to me *starts cutting* :thumbsup: ha ha

but yeah it will be the pump for sure i had the same thing happen to me! I used a Bosch 029 after the GTR pump ran ot of flow, good for 700hp :(

Can someone confirm that the 3071/3076 need the oil/water line kit when you buy the turbo? I know some people use factory lines but i'm unsure if the garrett turbs need the kit.

Cheers

it needs the kit

it needs the kit

BUT! don't get the gcg one. Even though the rubber lines have a flame proof sheath they aren't melt proof......

One of mine was lucky not to have melted through and dumped the coolant everywhere. The other one is pretty heavily discoloured even though it was tied close to the block well away from everything hot.

Luckily as the turbo is off having the waste gate ported i have the opportunity to get it fixed.

See the fact is My walbro pump hasnt shown signs it is caving in

What pump you guys recommend to changing it to

are you serious?

how about the fact that your injector duty is way to high compared to power output.

thats a major sign its caving in.

its obviously not keeping up with the flow rates required at high revs and boost.

mount a 044 intank and whatch your AFR drop down into the 10:1 range.

but his awesome tuner would know more than you right :D

Common Boys ............................. No need to rip in to everything

Man i brought the car to him he tuned it

I presume bel garage know what there talking about tooo

ha ha sorry! They wouldnt be the first workshop to make that same mistake (the one i went to told me to change injectors too) so dont worry too much. Just next time you are there mention you might think it is the pump and not the injectors and see how they respond, im sure it will be one of those 'why didnt I think of that' moments and everyting will be sweet

As for coils. Man you need them as then will miss fire hard

i also just thought i would ask who told you this rubbish?

the standard coil packs are of a very high quality and produce more then enough spark for up past 350 rwkws.

dont replace them unless they "prove" to be faulty.

ive been running over 1.5 and up to 1.8 bar since back in 06 , with standard coils and iridiums, and have never had an issue.

bell garage told him, and convieniently had a set of spitfires in stock. lol

f**kn helll you guy are bad

it is like you are arguing with a bunch of kids

i presume that spitfires and better than 13yr old coils

you people just dont understand

our car are not brand new there about 10 - 15 yrold.

As for a walbro there is the shit ones and good ones

you can produce over 350rwkw on it....

maybe your machanic need a tune up

fella were not arguing with anyone

the $600 spent on new spitfires is a total waste of money if your stock onces are in good nick.

theres heaps of guys on here with 200kws running spitfires. and i bet a lot of them would have 6 perfect coils sitting at home in the shed, but they rush out and buy them thinking that they are needed to make reliable power.

or because they were given bad information.

until you change to a real fuel pump and watch your afr's change drematically you can keep thinking that walbros are the best pump in the world. genuine,copy,gold plated i dont care. up to 250 rwkws. awesome pump. over 250 rwkws, thro it in the bin before you lunch your motor.

if your still not convinced you will be when your ringlands let go, and you spend $10k on a forged motor, boost it to 20 psi and watch your afr's hit 13:1 with your injectors at 100% duty. maybe then you will realise that some of us on here, that allready have done all these mods are trying to help you. if you want to learn the hard way thats fine go right ahead, but just be careful how you word things because you dont want to misslead other people with here say or miss imformation.

attached is my original walbro, which contributed to my ringlands collapsing.

which was the replace with a 044 intank, running a v8 fuel sock.

AFR's are much more stable and accurate with the constant flow from the 044

another question...

will my stock bov be up to the task if i am to run 17 psi on this turbo?

ive been quoted on a turbosmart full plumback bov. for around 400

what is a cheaper option regarding plumback bov's?

I was told [note not me, but told] that the stock BOV will not cleanly handle the extra flow. But there are several shops that will mod your std BOV so that it can, mine was done when I installed the GT3076. Its no bling bling bright thing, it looks bog stock [which I think is good], but so far it has worked. And the mod didn't cost the $400 a HKS/Greddy etc BOV costs [it may not sound as good either, but I DGAF about sound].

Others on here may have different idea's.

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
