hey guys

just wondering has anyone tried/used the gt3582r on there rb25?

im looking at upgrading my turbo, at the moment im running a kkr480 with 50mm ext gate on 18psi making 240rwkw ran 115mph.

has anyone had issues with the gt3582r internal gate? can they hold boost etc

would it be a worthy upgrade or not worth it? want something with more punch!

get a 3076, more power, about the same response as the KKR junk :P

hey im chasing more mid range torque plus ya top end power, my kkr i make 1.4bar at about 4800rpm, i want it at 3800rpm if possible. but with the same torque. til redline.

would 3076 make 250rwkw on 14psi? so 18psi could i push 280rwkw and 120mph+?

do they make 3076 internally gated? do they hold boost or creep?

im not really into the mood of hacking into another exhaust housing and gettin a 50mm ext gate welded on again! its why im considering iternal gate

i have an internal gate 3076, it holds boost fine if you make the dump properly. i'm making 250rwkw at 17psi. all in around 3900 on the road. if i was going to do it again i'd go external from the start

oh ok thanks 4 that. see no point upgrading if im only gonna gain 10kw at same boost level, not worth the 2.5g to do it!

i kinda want a turbo that makes 250rwkw at 1bar and perhaps 280-300 at 1.3bar-1.4bar

i had one if not the first 3582r-iw sold in Aus, mounted on my 25

it started out low mounted and then high mounted on a etm manifold, and i loved it.

my car was running a built r33 auto with highstall.

the turbo had a 18 psi actuator with a .82 rear and would see 20 psi between 4000 - 4200rpm

going up a lg hill in overdrive ive seen 5 psi at 2500 rpm, Laggy i think not.

in my eyes this is the same boost response to the 3076, yet the potential for future power is allways there.

i have since sold this turbo and manifold to another SAU member and he with a manual and e85 has produced 380 rwkws,

on a stock motor with lg injectors at around 23 psi.

i think they are the one of best suited turbo to the rb25 you can get.

a wise man "nismoid" once said, a poor man pays twice

so why choose a 3076 to get the same response and less power?

you then want more power so you sell it and get a 3582.

get a 3582 to begin with and do the job once.

as far as internal gate's go above 20 psi,

the 3582r-iw with .82 rear has no boost control issues that i have found when set up correctly.

thanks dangerman! well this is the turbo im really looking at going 2!

i only wanna run around 1.3bar because motor is still stock, motor has run 1.3bar for 2yrs nearly now and no signs of giving in yet lol

where is the best place 2 start looking? price wise etc.

Two things:

1) If you aren't going to get >250rwkw on a GT3076R, then you won't on a GT3582R either - both can flow that power level at that boost level without an issue.

2) A .82a/r GT3582R feels WAY spongier "around town" driving than a GT3076R, saying they respond/drive the same as a GT3076R is ridiculous.

Agreed fully with Nismoid, recommending a .82 GT35R over a GT3076R is basically saying "Why get 280-300rwkw with good response when you can spend the same and make 280-300rwkw with more lag??" There is a dude on here who has cracked 350rwkw with a .68a/r GT30R running E85 on his RB25DET. GT30R ftw.

im assuming you have a 3076 dyno print out to compare to mine?

or is all that just your personal opinion without actually owning one?

spongier?

the host is asking about drag racing not going shopping

Im glad Lith said it and not me lol...

But come on, a bit of logic.

The larger compressor wheel in the GT35 cannot be as efficient as the GT30. It flows more, and a reasonable amount more too considering the 50-70rwkw

From what i remember in my GT3X days, the rear ends on them are identical, its just the front wheel thats changed... so going to a larger front wheel whilst making more power/flow (clearly), is not going to have the same response.

A dyno print out isnt a good gauge either... anyone can load up harder and get a better curve.

Hey Dangerman hows things mate.

I think Lithium is refering to my HKS3037 on E85.

Heres a plot with Adrians and my car on the same dyno (Willall's)

GT3582 vs HKS3037 .68

Edit: Picture not working properly but is on the last page of the E85 thread up the top.^^^^^

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
