Sleepy was kind enough to take me for a spin in his skyline with a GT-RS hks turbo, very responsive, was wondering if anyone on here has a Garret GT3076r on a rb25 I can compare it to please? Don't really want to drive it, just sit in the passengers seat and see how it goes.

Am thinking about both turbo's atm.

thx

Your spot on wanting to find a ride with the Turbo your considering. Sorry I dont know any1 with this set-up. It also depends on other mods you have/planning.

It's not the same but perhaps the forced induction threads may help. Use the search facility at the base of the main page.

Forced Induction - Search for "3076r"

I will also be getting a 3076r installed towards the end of Jan start of Feb, hopefully if John (trojan) is free by then.. but i will be getting a water meth injection kit installed as well, so it will be a bit different (increased timing etc) from a standard setup..

Yeah I new Mick (bullet32) was getting a 3076r, was hoping someone in canberra already had one, as I'm hoping to get the work started sometime this month. I have most of the supporting mods for this turbo already. How much is the water meth injection setup costing you? evl?

Water meth kits are around $400AU to $800AU+ depending on the type of kit you get and what extras it has (safety cut off switches etc). As for installation, I was thinking of doing it myself as it isnt very hard to do, but John is installing the 3076r + tuning it, so I might as well get him to install the lot..

I have a Snow Performance stage 2 boost cooler waiting to go into my car, just remember though that a WMI kit does need you to check that the reservoir has fluid in it regularly, if the car is tuned to make full use of the WMI kit and its empty your engine may not like it.

yeah i've looked into this, there are different brands (Devils Own WM kit) which include fluid level switches that notifies you if the WM level is low, i've also heard of timing retard/cutout switches as well, they detect if the reservoir is running low or empty, and if so, then decrease the timing and/or boost pressure by going into safe mode (a bit dearer but its worth it if it ends up saving the engine)..

    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
