Gt35r Vs Garrett T04z - Discussion (just Post In This Thread To Create A Database)


Recommended Posts

my t04z is a split pulse t4 flange - same as the GT3788. The 4088R is a bigger turbo than the T04Z (compressor and turbine) so it will flow more HP, with a tiny bit more lag.

Main reason for doing the swap is simply that the Z is too doughy out of medium tight corners around the track. IE: turns 3/4 @ QR I take at about 80km/hr. 2nd gear == massive tailslide on exit, whilst 3rd gear == LAG all the way out of the corner. Hopefully the new turbo is not only slightly more responsive, but a lot more linear in power delivery. I make 1 bar at 4100rpm with the Z and 24psi at 4500. Thats not too laggy, but as soon as you go below 4000 rpm there is absolutely nothing there. I wouldnt care too much if the 3788 only makes 1 bar at 4000rpm as long as 3800/3900 still had SOMETHING available unlike the Z which comes on like a lightswitch once you get over 4.

The only unfortuante thing is that I wont be able to directly compare how the 2 turbo's would have worked on the track as I'm making some other significant changes to the car at the same time. So wont be able to say if the 3788 is soley responsible for better lap times, but hopefully combined with everything else we are doing it makes a big difference.

Still probably a couple of weeks away from doing the swap - will see how we go.

What else are you doing mate!?!?!!?!?!?

Is it going to be ready for the 11th?

We are going to run high boost on the T04z this time and see what we can times we can squeeze out of it.

Hopefully the new balancer will keep all the belts on the car unlike last times sad effort!

#### Couldnt edit my first abortion of a sentence.

this should make more sense

Oh few bits and pieces. Got some softer suspension going in as the 12kg springs that were on there were way to hard. The car will definitely be there on the 11th even if i have to push the damn thing around the track :D

hopefully catcha then ! Look forward to seeing what you can do with the good ole Z :P

Nice mate,

Looking forward to seeing your new setup in action!

Are you running an RB30? 1bar at 4100rpm isn't that bad :thumbsup:

Strictly speaking the GT4088R isn't really a bigger turbo than the T04Z, the T04Z has a bigger compressor which wants to flow a bit more air - the Supra guys in the States and the UK seem to be increasingly moving from the T04Z to the GT4088R as the fun 700+ish turbo to have, the GT4088R is apparently more useable and generally fun.

Look forward to hearing how the GT3788R treats you, I've never heard of one used on a petrol motor.

sounds like rb26 response.... in 4th gear on a flat road loading up the motor i was getting 1bar around 3700rpm on my stock capacity rb26

Smoking Crack whilst driving helps Cerbera think the boost is coming on sooner.

Also Cerbs .... 139mph last night with a GT35 !!

ANDRA guy got angry and told me to get a chute ..... jeeeeeez never ends !

Good job, I guessed your weight at 2800lb?s and put your run in the Power calculator and it came up at 560hp so the numbers sound right.

Reasonable guide but remember its engine power. Im surprised just how close this has been.

dam id love to see a skyline run 139 at the plex, where are u getting ur E85 from in perth?

silvia even

Edited by ahh 33 s2

Running 1000cc injectors and low rail pressure. It gets to 90%.

Not sure how the pump would fair on higher rail pressure but in theory a lot more injector available.

Yea, the compressors of the 2 turbo's are fairly similar in the scheme of things ->

TO4Z

Inducer 66.7mm

Exducer 84.0mm

Turbine: 74.2mm

4088R

Inducer 63.5mm

Exducer 88.0mm

Turbine: 77.0mm

Doesn't the exducer determine how much air it can flow ? People seem to be getting a bit more HP out of the 4088's than the Z's.. the fin design of the new garrett turbo's is more efficient than the older Z's.

    • perhaps i should have mentioned, I plugged the unit in before i handed over to the electronics repair shop to see what damaged had been caused and the unit worked (ac controls, rear demister etc) bar the lights behind the lcd. i would assume that the diode was only to control lighting and didnt harm anything else i got the unit back from the electronics repair shop and all is well (to a point). The lights are back on and ac controls are working. im still paranoid as i beleive the repairer just put in any zener diode he could find and admitted asking chatgpt if its compatible   i do however have another issue... sometimes when i turn the ignition on, the climate control unit now goes through a diagnostics procedure which normally occurs when you disconnect and reconnect but this may be due to the below   to top everything off, and feel free to shoot me as im just about to do it myself anyway, while i was checking the newly repaired board by plugging in the climate control unit bare without the housing, i believe i may have shorted it on the headunit surround. Climate control unit still works but now the keyless entry doesnt work along with the dome light not turning on when you open the door. to add to this tricky situation, when you start the car and remove the key ( i have a turbo timer so car remains on) the keyless entry works. the dome light also works when you switch to the on position. fuses were checked and all ok ive deduced that the short somehow has messed with the smart entry control module as that is what controls the keyless entry and dome light on door opening   you guys wouldnt happen to have any experience with that topic lmao... im only laughing as its all i can do right now my self diagnosed adhd always gets me in a situation as i have no patience and want to get everything done in shortest amount of time as possible often ignoring crucial steps such as disconnecting battery when stuffing around with electronics or even placing a simple rag over the metallic headunit surround when placing a live pcb board on top of it   FML
    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.
