I just bought myself this a few weeks ago.

Some people i have been speaking to in the SA section say that this turbo is too big for a RB25, and that it is going to be real laggy. But i wont really know for a few weeks till i have it installed. That is the 0.82 rear housing i think, it has it stamped inside somewhere.

With that ^^

Old mate its not a full turbo its just the housing

I believe its the .73 AVO recast nissan housing

I swapped it for the .82 external Grant

so its still the 3076r but now external gate

Is this the twin scroll version that you guys have been using?

I previously had the 3037R which looks identical to the first pictured so called T04S at the start of the thread. It lasted 6 years running 17 or 22 psi and making 250-270atw before having any probs. It dropped a bearing. You guys were saying its crap at the start of this thread but i disagree. I had very good results although it does lag a bit which would be my only complaint. It hit full boost around 4-5k on an rb20 w/ext gate...which are renowned for the lag so it would prob come on alot sooner on a 25.

Anyways, i'm considering getting the 3076R instead of another 3037R due to the twin scroll factor but i'm still unsure. Would this turbo reliably handle 17psi daily and 22psi of boost on and off? Anyone have any experience with this turbo on an rb20? The results look good for rb25's.

Sorry to ask in an rb25 thread...just dont wanna start a new one.

Cheers.

Well for a start the first one isn't a 3037R or 3037 anything . To be a "3037" you need to have a GT30 turbine and a GT37 compressor wheel .

The 7/14 bladed wheel is not a GT anything , from memory its either a T04S or a 76mm TB41 wheel .

The second one is what you could call a 3037"S" , I believe S is the designation HKS gave their spec Garrett turbos in the GT30 family with port shrouded comp housings and 76.2mm GT37 compressors .

on a 20 22psi will be fine, wont be flowing quiet as much as a 25. i'm running myne at 22psi atm on a 25, loves it

Nice good to hear. Thanks for the feedback.

My front housing looks identical to the turbo in the 1st pic and mine is a 3037R. Was just saying. Mine is a 6 year old turbo and looks different to the current 3037's. The turbine wheels are front 7 blade and rear 10 blade. I cant measure them as they are munched :)

Have any of you guys had any experiences with 3076R on a 20?

No that one two post above isn't it either , that thing is called a "GT2876R" because it uses a GT28 NS111 turbine and a 76mm 48 trim 7/14 bladed compressor .

The first one in the first post said 60mm by 55mm turbine so it wont be a 53.8mm GT28 turbine , those are the approximate dimensions of an 84 trim GT30 turbine .

According to my lists there are 24 Garrett and HKS spec units in the "GT30BB" family . For these there are only 9 cartridges so to make up those 24 the variations are in the housings .

A couple of years back I typed out most of the GT30 BB range and posted them on this board .

Cartridge wise there are only 3 "real" GT3076R's or you could call them GT3037's because in the real versions terms it means the same thing .

The most common is the largest compressor trim version or GT37 wheel family in 56T , less common is the GT37 52T version , and quite rare is the GT37 48T version . So all the same 76.2mm dia GT37 or BCI-18C wheels with 56/52/48 trim variations .

They all use the same ~ 60mm GT30 UHP 84 trim turbine in these "REAL" 3037/GT3076R turbos .

56T cartridge 700177-5007 , 52T cartridge 700177-5006 , pretty sure the 48T cartridge is 700177-5005 .

Complete units (minus turbine housings)

56T 700382-5012 - with Port shrouded compressor housing . 700382-5011 for with std comp housing inlet .

52T 700382-5010 - with PS housing . 700382-5009 without .

To be confirmed but 48T unit is said to be 700382-5008 and non PS comp housing only .

Not using the force , the 56T ones are easy to find and the 52T I own .

A .

discopotato03...I'll post up my serial number off the garrett plate on my dead 3037R to compare to your list. I'm curious now to see if it matches anything. Maybe a certain workshop who did the work did a dodgy on the old owner telling him it was a 3037 cause thats how i've been led to believe it. I also have the receipt from this workshop.

Also i recently emailed garrett to price up a 3037R with my serial number and he said it was superceded to a new number. Will post up the new number also. Now the just gotta find the email. Thanks for the very indepth reply disco :P

    • Yup. You can get creative and make a sort of "bracket" with cable ties. Put 2 around the sender with a third passing underneath them strapped down against the sender. Then that third one is able to be passed through some hole at right angles to the orientation of the sender. Or some variation on the theme. Yes.... ummm, with caveats? I mean, the sender is BSP and you would likely have AN stuff on the hose, so yes, there would be the adapter you mention. But the block end will either be 1/8 NPT if that thread is still OK in there, or you can drill and tap it out to 1/4 BSP or NPT and use appropriate adapter there. As it stands, your mention of 1/8 BSPT male seems... wrong for the 1/8 NPT female it has to go into. The hose will be better, because even with the bush, the mass of the sender will be "hanging" off a hard threaded connection and will add some stress/strain to that. It might fail in the future. The hose eliminates almost all such risk - but adds in several more threaded connections to leak from! It really should be tapered, but it looks very long in that photo with no taper visible. If you have it in hand you should be able to see if it tapered or not. There technically is no possibility of a mechanical seal with a parallel male in a parallel female, so it is hard to believe that it is parallel male, but weirder things have happened. Maybe it's meant to seat on some surface when screwed in on the original installation? Anyway, at that thread size, parallel in parallel, with tape and goop, will seal just fine.
    • How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSPT male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSPT reducing bush? I am making the assumption the OEM sender is BSPT not BSPP/BSP
    • I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use
    • I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.
    • You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.
