Stao why don't you try make the TD06 work with you .82 type B housing?

with a little machine work you could be adding a whole new product to the market.

The SS1PU is not a GTRs.

2ndly if you are comparing td06 to a GTRs its never been compared on fair grounds. Install your td06 internally gated in a stock rb20det manifold plus all the EGR and road legal crap you would normally expected to run on a stock setup, The TD06 would not perform any where near a GTRs or a SS1PU.

All supporting mods counts, The turbocharger does not take all the credits.

I hear what you are saying. SO many people carry on that the std manifold is good for 300-350rwkws etc, I have long been an advocate for binning exhaust manifold asap...but others are happy to use it and hold back the performance gains available to them...combined with the fact for the same price of the HKS GTRS you can buy a complete TD06 setup. So based on dollars spent it is a fair comparison.

Anyway , interesting to see more billet results

So I received my JJR 3inch dump today.

It appears that the inlet area of the exhaust is smaller than the outlet area of the turbo. in some places about 0.5cm in width and length about 1cm. I'll try and machine as much as I can but doesnt appear to be that much room.

Thoughts? Will it be much of a restriction?

Heres a pic, not the best

It needs a little die grinding by the looks of it, as does the adapter Stao machines up imo.

Can't the machinist at least round the corners a little Stao? Is it a CNC mill?

All the corners in the .82 B rear housing has been rounded off, The flange area can't be any bigger, its been traced through the gasket.

For the Billet TDxx series to work probably there is a need for a proper exhaust manifold, external gate, and a front pipe. I'll get them sorted very soon.

Stao why don't you look into getting a spacer plate made which accommodates your external gate?

that way you can offer the turbos in external format and the user just needs to make a dump pipe, which you can supply a v band ring and clamp for.

Yeah will def be fixing up the dump pipe

Want everything perfect before I fit it all up and dyno it, rather than going to the dyno and finding out all these restrictions

Stao why don't you look into getting a spacer plate made which accommodates your external gate? that way you can offer the turbos in external format and the user just needs to make a dump pipe, which you can supply a v band ring and clamp for.

I should imagine that a spacer between the manifold and the turbo that is big enough to have an outlet for the wastegate will start causing problems with pushing the turbo outward/upward/downward enough to make it start hitting other stuff. Certainly on the factory turbo manifold you'll hit the strut tower after only a smallish push outward.

Ive seen one of those ebay spacers with the 2 bolt flange plate used to mount a precision turbo on a skyline before. It certainly can be done, and if Stao makes the spacer himself Im sure he can also make sure it fits well.

Then again he can just supply housings with a gate port

Dimensionally (in/ex) its the same size as the existing 20g, its blade design that changes. Front cover is the trust style .60

if changes have been made to either inducer or exducer I'm sure stao will correct

Updates:

I'm getting some steam pipe bolton manifold and high mount manifold made overseas as I'm typing. I should have a prototype received by mid next week for trailing and testing. Those manifolds will be available for $300 to our customers assume they perform as expected.

It appears a larger turbine setups would perform better on factory manifolds, I will trail a SS2 in a .82a rear housing on current std manifold for some comparison.

how these going stao.?.are you still going ahead with a cheap steampipe bolt on jobbie?

i'm keen for another turbo, probally a ss2 with the steampipe bolt on if it goes ahead, and stick a gate on the exhaust

housing, just waiting to see how it pans out

cheers

Yes I've fitted the prototype manifold. It is awful, lots of dressing up work required and i'm certainly not impressed with the level of workmanship, the final product I will be selling will be a steam pipe manifold with every thing done to specifications. it will definitely flow much better then a stock Rb25det manifold.

I've re-enforced the the joiner, that is where its likely to crack.

I'm pretty sure this is what some people sales on ebay. The bolt pattern on the flanges for cyc 4 5 6 are all out. it won't fit unless dressed up.

Finally fitted:

By the way any one needs their wastegate opened up? we can perform this service for $120.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
