Guys,

After being excited about my new turbo purchase...i am quite disappointed.

Would appreciate any advise.

In short, This is what i purchased as advertised. (from a supplier who ordered from another supplier i believe)

Garrett GT3071R RB25DET T3 Bolt-on Turbocharger 500hp, Dual Ball Bearing Kit - 0.82a/r

Horsepower: 500hp

Compressor Housing A/R -: 0.60a/r

Compressor Inlet -: 4"

Turbine Housing A/R -: 0.82a/r

Turbine Hsg. Attachments: Inlet: Standard 4-bolt T3 flange

Turbine Hsg. Attachments: Outlet: Nissan 6-Bolt

Oil Inlet - : Inverted Flare 7/16-24 thread

Oil Drain - : Standard 2-bolt T3 flange

Bearing Type: Dual Ball Bearing

Cooling: Water Cooled Centre

Wastegate: Integrated Wastegate

Includes:

1x Garrett GT3071R RB25DET Turbocharger, complete High Nickel Content Cast Iron Nissan Style Turbine Housing with Internal Wastegate and actuator.

Fitting Kit Includes: Oil Drain, Oil Lines, Water Lines, Turbo Gaskets, Spacer, Studs, Nuts.

Turbo was delivered direct to my tuner, who had spent approx 9 hours labor to install, and needed to purchase the following.

4x studs - apparently the ones provided were not long enough or universal instead of metric.

10m spacer as it was not included.

An earls adaptor for the water or oil line i believe. (Lines were provided with the kit)

2x turbo hoses and clamps

also something about re-aligning the compressor housing??? i think. did mention he is surprised they were not using jigs

Picked up my car today after not having it for 8 days or so.

car is making 243kw@tw on 14psi

I looked at the new turbo, and can see the following.

compressor housing .50 A/R

garret ID tag: GT2835 - 700382-003

researching the above, it is the cropped version?

So all up, i have paid for a product i was not delivered with, and spent many extra $ to make it bolt on.

PS. my tuner was not aware of the turbo being delivered, he only knew one was turning up and needed to be installed.

Anyone else had an experience like this and what have you done about it? or, what would you do in this case?

Hopefully it isnt the cropped version.The results seem good for the boost being run. IMO there is no advantage having the 4" intake as opposed to the 2.75". Pretty much all the other bits needed are common knowledge for fitment. How much was it?

def think its cropped from what i read.

$2460

thanks for the replies guys.

the numbers are confusing the hell out of me.

I am just concerned that i have not been provided with what i ordered/paid for.

so, my turbo is a .50 compressor, turbine 700382-003. and looking at the rear it has "sonic" written on it.

looking at the sonicperformance site, they state they have a .64 turbine housing.

and on the site from which i ordered it, the specs below differ.

Compressor Housing A/R -: 0.60a/r

Compressor Inlet -: 4"

Turbine Housing A/R -: 0.82a/r

Turbine Hsg. Attachments: Inlet: Standard 4-bolt T3 flange

Turbine Hsg. Attachments: Outlet: Nissan 6-Bolt

Oil Inlet - : Inverted Flare 7/16-24 thread

Oil Drain - : Standard 2-bolt T3 flange

Bearing Type: Dual Ball Bearing

Cooling: Water Cooled Centre

Wastegate: Integrated Wastegate

The GT3071 - 20 is the same as a HKS 2835

so you got the turbo you ordered. The power is good for that booet on that turbo IMO

What exactly are you not happy about?

he is not happy about the following...

he added Red Bull to his skyline...cost...$3.50...result...supersonic multi million dollar jet fighter.

he then tried a different turbo...cost...$2460...result...243RWKW to remove the skin off his custard.

Id be pissed too!!

Moral to the story...drink Red Bull and dont eat custard!

Gt3071 is basically the same as the hks spec Gt2835 so going by the id no. it seems to be right.

The rear however will be cropped to fit the Nissan style flange and its highly unlikely it would be a .82

The comp housing it supposed to be .50 a/r as well for the Gt3071, the Gt3076 however comes with the .60 a/r comp

That power looks good for 14psi tho....20psi should get u up to 270ish

They don't crop the turbine to fit the housing. They machine the housing to suit the turbo.

It will be all the same specs as the 3071-3 that the ID tag says. The turbine housing A/R is 0.73.

$2460 is spot on the money considering it didn't come with spacer, studs or silicon.

Who did you buy it from?

Keep in mind that the ID tag has nothing to do with housings. It only identifies the cartridge.

All the specs I said in the above posts are accurate. I sell these as a sonic dealer myself.

thanks again guys.

i am actually happy with the power and performance of the turbo...

below is the site

http://www.tweakit.net/shop/product_info.p...9ij7uter43vvdj6

didnt come with the silicone reducer etc... which i am fine with. but think it should at least state "misc parts may be required to fit"

spacer is listed, but wasnt supplied, cost me another $30 for part + delivery. then some labor to grind.

water line and oil line was supplied, but required an adapter for some reason, cost me an extra $30

studs were supplied, but didnt fit. cost me an extra $45

also required an elbow

and as mentioned, the tuner had to re-jig the alignment...or something like that.

so a few extra $ and hours in labor i had to fork out for.

would i be correct in saying that the site is incorrect? false advertisment

he is not happy about the following...

he added Red Bull to his skyline...cost...$3.50...result...supersonic multi million dollar jet fighter.

he then tried a different turbo...cost...$2460...result...243RWKW to remove the skin off his custard.

paul, just because you cant use e85 in your car doesn't mean you have to drink the rest of your stock

    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
