2 were redundancies, this one....basically comes down to the owner being a lieing flamin mongrel hole and saying it was a 3 week trial period instead of the 3 months we agreed upon before I started

Sounds like you are a bad worker lol.

Trying out my 6766 soon

Why are people talking about the 3566, isn't that just some rugged big old Garrett wheel thrown on a GT35 core to make a bit more power? Its not a Precision turbo, and odds are ultimately a frankstein thats not likely to be worthy of comparing to the turbos mentioned in this thread.

The more variety the better if you ask me, turbo evolution! Would you rather make sacrifices to almost get what you need, or get exactly what you need?

The 66mm exhaust wheels are supposed to be replacement models for the 6262/6265/6766. I don't believe they make a 6462.

why does it seem like there are way too many sizes available for these things?

I mean, 6766, 6262, 6266, 6466, 6462?

What's going on lol

Really that always been the case..turbonetics, ITS have always been like that..only garrett that has f**k all range, and there was(probally still is the 68 exhaust wheel..lol

I hope they make something to replace the 7680...96 I REALLY wanted that turbo for my R31, i don't whether to pony up and buy one now if i can find one, or wait and hope something

replaces it...

cheers

darren

ask the vl dudes, common thing for them, i woudn't do it, and not on a manual car...

steve has one on his white vl

cheers

darren

Hey darren,

Didnt realise steve had 3566, thought it was just a gt35.

Im leaning towards the forced performance gt3586 hta with billet comp wheel. The evo guys are making crazy power with them and boost vs rpm is same as std gt35 when they back to back test them. (still running bens old gt35 on mine atm)

All this turbo talk without compressor maps hmmmmm.

How do you know when your turbo is surging ???? you need a compressor map to determine this. You can keep change turbo's till you find the right one ( expensive excerise)

You'll typically know when your turbo is surging. I've lost a bit of faith in compressor maps after seeing Garrett release multiple versions of its "same spec" GT3071R and GT3582R compressor maps, I wouldn't be surprised if there were other turbos out there which they've done that with as well - but when a compressor map changes for a compressor wheel design which hasn't it rattles my confidence.

To some degree the risk of surge for a given power level is quite a lot lower, engines breathe a lot better and compressor maps are typically wider than they once were - there is SO much information out there on how different combinations work on different cars that its easier and more reliable to see how a particular turbo worked on an engine of certain displacement/VE/etc than to pull out a ruler and a calculator and do some semi-educated guessing based on assumptions using information which may or may not be entirely accurate.

Yet what if your the first malaka to try it out? AKA the pioneer of that model on that motor. How do you make your educated guess then good Sir?

I would never be the first person to ever try a particular turbo out, unless it was completely for free.

Obviously I'd ideally have compressor maps etc etc, but we can ascertain quite a bit from observing how other setups have handled these. For example, from when I have plotting compressor maps for 4G63s and RB25s/26s etc the trend I've found is that a 4G63 would require a lower surge line than RB equivalents - I spend a lot of time looking into how 4G63s perform with different turbo combinations partly because my next fast car will probably use one, and partly because if a 4G63 doesn't surge with a particular combination then an RB25+ is very unlikely to.

My bigger concern with not having compressor flow maps for these turbos is that I don't know how the comp efficiency lines fall over in flow vs PR, having seen how peaky some modern wheels are I'd be a bit concerned about the possibility of deciding a particular setup needs 62lb/min at 1bar of boost and ending up with the equivalent of of a GTX3076R, which loosely speaking CAN flow near 65lb/min but it will only even think about flowing 60lb/min at 1.4bar of boost.

Observing dyno results and real world performance you get a good idea of the window of efficiency, for example if an EVO can run 40psi through a PT6266CEA and not surge and a Supra can make >700whp on 30psi with the same unit on E85 - or 600whp on pump gas at 22psi, then its a very safe bet that an RB25 is going to fit between both in terms of choke line and surge line.

Lol all well and good but someone has got to be the first.

Most of these up and comer brands dont have the backing that Garrett (HKS) do. Its normally some poor bastard end user who will trial it out, or in some lucky cases the sponsor shop will put one on their own car.

I think for a lot of people the outcome on these is an educated guess/mystery.

Fwiw HKS, Kando, Trust never gave out compressor maps that I am aware of. People in the Kando thread are talking about getting anti-surge housings for their turbos, I've never seen a compressor map from Mitsubishi with an aftermarket modified housing - which WILL affect the map. So how did people in there decide on their combinations?

Kando are Trust/MHI copies, Trust produced kits for almost every car under the sun with those turbos. I for one went to websites like Nengun and researched what kit trust made for what car, which gave me a clear indication of what would work.

'FWIW' HKS also sold their shit in kits as well as on their own, again enabling people to make an educated decision.

And, if you read the Kando thread, there are people looking to buy surge ported housings because............. Wait for it....................... They encountered surge while tuning. OMFG I KNOW RIGHT. The surge ported housings are just the intended Trust style housing with surge ports drilled into it, no secret science/gamble recipe.

You talking to me like I'm an idiot... then spouting the above is a bit much for me. The problem with debating with an idiot is they drag you down to your level and beat you with experience, so that circle ends here - regardless of who the idiot may be.

lol you did ask a silly question (how did people who encountered surge decide to try surge ported housings?) so I gave you a silly answer.

I still love you though man, dont get mad. :P

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
