Getting a gt2860rs for my rb20. Pls help me choose the right exhaust housing.

I lean towards the .63, to help with the spool up. I think dispopotato3 said, that garrett engineers made the real gt2860rs with a larger exhaust and comp housing on purpose. So u could run more ignition advance in the low revs. And to free up exhaust flow at the high revs.

Need your input!

Thanks!

Hmmm. I've been looking into nissansilvia forums. And most of the guys run .86 turbo housing. And they get full boost at around 4000rpm. Confused again. Final: .63 or .82 ? Which one will yeld better results ? Still want it to be drivable, but don't want to loose the rb20 hi revs also.

Full boost at 4k for the .86 sounds about right, though to put it perspective a GTRS will make 1.4bar at about 4100 on an SR and make another 20rwkw over a disco as well.

I just got deja vu. I'm sure i've written a near identical response somewhere else....

You're better off with the smaller one. Note that HKS only make the 2530 in a .64 as well. It's virtually the same turbo as a disco except for a very slight trim difference on the compressor.

How much power are you after? How much bottom end are you willing to give up? what are the intended uses of the car?

Normally i'd say go for the smaller housing but as of late i'm more inclined to say since its going to be gutless down low you might as well make sure it screams up high...but as mentioned it boils down to what you want from the car...

The only purpose designed T3 flanged GT28 turbine housing for that NS111 turbine is the HKS one found on 2530's/2535's 2540's and GT-RS's intended for RB20 and 25 . The A/R ratio is 0.64 , Garretts 0.86 A/R turbine housing was only ever made with the smaller T2/25/28 flange .

If you can find a GT2530 kit from an RB20/25 it would be easiest .

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • I believe @Duncan has given it a crack at Mt Buller before (in actual race conditions)
    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.
