Hi all , someone I know has the 1.06 non gated turbine housing on a VL with an RB26 in it . He'd like to know what difference it would make having the mid sized or 0.82 A/R housing instead .

I believe ATM it makes full boost (~ 22) at a tad over 5000 revs and he would like that to ideally be 1000 lower .

Anyone been there with both these turbine housings on a GT3582R and an RB26 ?

Cheers A .

There is something wrong if he makes only 22psi at just over 5000rpm.

Noel's 33 (RB25DET) makes 26psi at 3800-4000 and 400rpm later on the 1.06.

Tuning, cam timing, the rest of the setup, will all determine how efficiently it will run.

I'm no turbo expert but why the hell ppl go for the largest turbine Garrett has to offer if they dont intend on using the turbo to its absolute limit?!?

The way i see it is that u choose the a/r of the turbine housing in relation to what average power u intend to make so say if the 1.06 puts the turbo in the 600hp range and u only want 550hp then go for the smaller back end with the advantage of improved response

Which brings me to a question....The hp rating garrett state on their site, is this when using the largest 1.06 housing?

So i guess it might be a question of if your mate wouldn't mind loosing some power if any at all to get improved response because i'm sure there will be noticeable difference between the 1.06 and the .82

You are almost right.

All of the GT3582's are rated to the same hp. The compressor determines air flow = determines hp output.

The turbine's are all the same size and the blade angles are all the same so there is no differences there.

The A/R of the turbine only changes shaft speed vs exhaust flow.

They rate their turbos based on the compressor maps which has nothing to do with turbine size. However, if you pick the smallest ratio, you will have a hard time getting it to flow the numbers later in the rev range because it moves out of its efficiency range.

eg. They will all flow exactly the same air from the compressor at a shaft speed of 120,000 rpm. The A/R or the turbine housing determines when the shaft speed will get to that point.

      Unknown sound similar to BOV on positive boost with partial throttle RB26

      By nouveau_poor · Posted

      I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly

      R34 Skyline Sunroof Won't Tilt/Vent

      I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.

      It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣

      R34 Skyline Sunroof Won't Tilt/Vent

      Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
