There's no doubting it's a cracking result, though I'd be interested to see it run on the rollers again after that screamer is given the heave-ho. :thumbsup:

Every time I see an EW setup and results of boost control, it's pretty clear that the effort and expense is well justified. It's a real bugger that you had to go away from the original plan, but if it won't fit, it won't fit. Grafting a pipe onto the housing obviously works, just doesn't look that elegant and makes it difficult to swap housings if the need/want arises.

Couple of comments about the DE+T spec: I've got a set of those 25DE pistons, not a bad thing but they do have sharp edges around the valve cutouts. Can be knock-inducers so keep that in mind. Also the DE block does not have under piston oil squirters. The oil jets take temps out of your pistons, so be aware if you intend taking this thing to a track and running consistent high rpm/load.

Given you're powering a GTS4, this engine/turbo spec would be quite satisfying on the street, vs a GTR which would work in a different rev range.

Ahh so another DE+T conversion.

You know if I had a RB25DET and I blew the motor, I'd grab a DE and use that instead. Or even put DE pistons in a DET block to retain the oil squirters as Dale has mentioned.

Wicked build nonetheless - I can imagine having that much compression, it would build boost FAST, especially running such a small rear housing. The reason my power levels are so close with a Turbo compression motor is because I run water methanol injection - and this means I can run a lot more timing.

Imaging WMI on the DE motor... Would be insane.. Problem is, with such high compression, if the kit died it wouldn't take that long to kill the motor. But, I would think the DE motors are just as strong, if not stronger than the Turbo motors. This is just a guess but would the pistons have more meat on them, or is the gudgen pin height just a little lower?

I love this thread - Thanks for sharing it with us mate. You're a champion.

this is great to see a setup basically what i was looking at so i have an idea on what it will do, thats more power than i was looking for so i am excited to get the 3076 all up and going now onto my car!!!!

Stao, it will be an interesting comparison, your prototype looks really good.

Thanks for the interesting info Dale. I only took this to winton when it was non turbo, but I have been wanting to get to some track days, so the higher piston temps is something I will have to think about.

Jono your very welcome, thanks for posting up you dyno, I will have to get the torque graph off Sam. interms of boost building fast, it is under a second delay from foot down to boost and have always enjoyed that about the car as so far it has been a 98% daily.

thought i'd crawl under the car and show you guys the screamer:

Adam, please don't be gay. Plumbed back external gates are for girls :D

Yes the sound has grown on me, but i have spent that much time and money on it that I would hate to have to take it all back to standard and jump through all the hoops the cops make me do just for the sake of a few db of loudness. as long as I can make it still have the same power plumbed back and a bit of gate noise I will be happy.

and for those who dont like getting pineappled by the boys in blue

Where did you get the bell mouth insert for the intake? you mentioned the HKS core....was it a broken 3037-S that you had rebuilt with a Garrett turbine housing?

see this is the thing that I dont get. I purchased it brand new fully assembled from a Garrett distributor as a gt3076r with .60 inlet and .63 exhaust. but the core says 3037s, I thought that was a HKS model or core or something they did?

and the bell mouth insert came with the larger Garrett anti surge front housing, but we havent needed to use it as yet as there is no issues with surge.

all 3076s have 3037 written on the badge, its their code under the old garrett naming system before they switched to using compressor diameter for the second 2 numbers. there was a thread a while back with details of where to get bell mouth inserts iirc

Package drives so smoothly... Looking forward to doing a 3076 twin scroll on my R32 GTS4 RB25DE+T... Might even try E85 with it :happy:

Adam - I'd be interested in seeing the difference with / without the insert and gate plumbed back... Let me know when you're ready and we'll work something out :blush:

That's a rather impressing result as i along with many others here would have thought the .63 would have been incapable of these sort of numbers without special fuel or water/meth injection based on "mafia's" results some time back.

What makes it even more strange is that u would think the higher comp motor would be more prone to det with the small turbine but yet u pull it off with knk no more than 20

This shows us that the true Garrett .63 is capable of nice numbers and its a shame that we dont have more results with that turbine as it seems to be the trend now just to go for the larger .82

Happy to do it Sam, i'm interested aswell, give me a little time to get some cash back up and we'll chat, i really want to avoid loosing any power/torque by plumbing it back in.

I managed to open up the hole on the heatsheild to fit the new pod you gave me(see below), looks good imo and at least thats 1 less thing to be defected for. will do the other heatsheild to hide turbo over the weekend.

If you gate next to a cop you deserve to be canary'd lol.

There is definitely an argument for street cars to have external gates plumbed back in, but seriously, how could you happily remove the glorious sound Adam's car is making.

I completely understand the argument. It's an experience I've been through before. But I can only imagine how your car currently sounds, and feel it would be a loss to other road users to lose that external gate noise :(

I'm going to have to learn to drive sensibly again once my external gate in on my car. I tend to use it as a self control mechanism so I don't drive like a dickhead haha.

lol you make a valid point ie, if you gate next to a cop... but in this case its more if he is in the surrounding suburb.... havent had a chance to get a video of the car, but will do my best for this weekend.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      Sorry, just assumed that talk of coloured pads meant EBC red/green/yellow/shit stuff. I don't know the DBA pads, but it's a reasonable bet that they will be OK. DBA make good stuff generally. Those 4000 series rotors I linked to are very good. I may well replace the RDA rotors I have with those when required.

      The average previous owner for these cars were basically S-chassis owners in the US. Teenagers or teenager-adjacent. I often tell people that neglect is easier to fix than something that was actively "repaired" by previous owners.

      Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
