for drift simon.. but im keen on the switch!

i just finished tuning a std R33 (PFC, FMIC and EXHAUST), i put it on the dyno and tuned it, then fitted cams and cam gears (vct removed) and lost no power anywhere (on identical boost), here are the graphs. Lots of Cam gear dialing but it was worth the effort. Next mod turbo.

whats this hks3037 everyone talks about? what is it equal to in the garrett range?

I could ask "How was your sleep"? :/

Equilavent to a genuine 3076 but it slightly different in set up, do a search on 3037 = 56vs60 and 72vs 82 HKS vs Garrett etc etc

Good stuff, i'd prefer to call myself skeptic though, but each to their own. :/

I'm happy knowing that I've highlighted your factually incorrect statement.

Nothing worse than misleading users of this forum with blatantly wrong information and claims... Claims like Hub dynos are in RWKW - which are wrong.

ladies ladies.. the curve is the curve so lets all calm ourselves and dry the tears :/ the dyno is a tuning tool not the be all and end all of how fast the car is, we all know 3071s are faster... :cool:

lol this was one of the current informative GT30 threads but it seems to have gone off track a touch :cool: back to it shall we?

The HKS 3037S usually makes around 300rwkw/20psi, with the larger .73 rear.

Now take less boost, smaller rear.

You can see where this is going i'm sure...

Yep, no where.

56T vs 52T comp wheel. Not a true comparison.

May as well say my 3071 makes 285rwkw and Juggernauts makes 290 odd. both have the same trim gt30 turbine and different comp wheels too.

Compressor maps to show the 'signifigant' difference between the two Dave?

You'd expect there to be one by the wording of your post...

So there is nothing worse than all your posts?

I didn't realise this was about me...

Good to see you're still a fan :rofl:

ask and you shall receive

the following are the comp maps for GT37 series compressors 56T and 52T

based on 90% VE and calculated at 1.4 bar boost from 3000 to 8000rpm in 1000rpm intervals

the best part is, copy those values into the 3071 map :rofl:

I believe these will come in handy later for people wanting to do the research anyhow.

The HKS 3037S usually makes around 300rwkw/20psi, with the larger .73 rear.

Now take less boost, smaller rear.

You can see where this is going i'm sure...

The .73 rear is a specific HKS ex housing that has a T2 sized inlet flange and GT30 outlet http://www.hksusa.com/categories/more.asp?id=1092, whereas Simons using a Garrett .63 T3 4 bolt rear which has a T3 sized inlet flange and GT30 outlet.

So I'm not sure whether it would be correct to say the HKS T2 .73 is actually larger than the Garrett T3 .63.

I have no idea what im looking at with those maps? hahahaha

lol each island indicates a turbos efficiency range, the higher the % the more efficient it is..

idealy you would want a turbo that as your motor spools and revs it passes straight thru the centre island of the map. in this case iv picked max boost (i was conservative as the 1.5 results were far too biased to the smaller comp) then plotted at that boost only to show surge or overheating.

if you cross the edge of the map to the left side the compressor surges, if you cross the right side it starts pumping hot air. both are bad.

Apart from the annoying Garrett scaling... very very interesting Scott.

I can see why when you go the next compressor up how the surging comes about given the 56T is on the borderline :)

Also interesting that the 52T would be fairly well off the map in most scenario's upper RPM's and should fall off...

They are both more or less very similar until upwards of ~7,000rpm

Yet once on the cars it doesn't seem to be the case at all if they make/hold power till 8k without a problem (in the 52t scenario)

That's always made me wonder about some of the maps, never got my head around that part for some reason hehe...

That should help you a bit, it's a little bit "simpler" than the Garrett site if you are wanting a basic/quick run down of whats going on without serious number crunching.

Garrett site is better overall, but you will have to read it a couple of times and think about it :rofl:

Those trims are not exactly comparable (but gives some insight) ..as the 56 trim has a .6 a/r housing and the 52 trim has a .54 a/r.

So you'd expect the 52 trim to flow more in a .6 a/r comp - which incidently are available through GCG. Also the port shrouded 52 trim .6 flows more than the non-port shrouded comp (440 vs 450) according to the HKS specs.

    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
