The compressor map shows it's better everywhere... Where are the 3076R are only different up the higher boost end!

ok not identical, but not hugely different, the results from that subaru thread show a similar thing. Most the gains are to be had at high boost levels.

50lb/min pretty much all the way through the pressure range is fairly significant, considering that translates to around 50hp!

so is any one actually running any of the new GTX turbos,

inparticular the GTX35 on a 26?

Can pretty much get the whole kit for 3700 ... includes turbo, manifold, wastegate, water lines, gaskets etc, just need a dump pipe and intake

sounds alright to me

GTX3076R doesn't look like a big enough step to justify itself and the GT3076R is a little small for a 3litre, anyway :P

I'm not sold on the GTX turbos yet, and await the EFR7670 with interest...

Given you don't still have the stock turbo it seems that you aren't JUST after response, have you driven something with an RB30 in it yet?

haha touche! my setup as is makes me want more response... i'll be checking out al's car before i make a 100%

Haha I try ;) I think folks underestimate the things, RB30s tend to bring spool down 500rpmish which is what people mostly seem to pay attention to, but its worth remembering that the spool is on a bigger engine too - so even if you had a 500rpm laggier turbo on the RB30 it'd argueably *feel* as responsive as the more responsive turbo on the RB25, trick is its actually that much more responsive.

Terrible use of English, but might still make sense? I reckon I'd find a GT3076R annoying on an RB30 after having one on an RB25, and a GT2835 isn't THAT much different to a GT3076R really. For what its worth a twin scroll T04Z on an RB30 makes my car feel like a laggy sack.

Definitely experience it for yourself, but the difference between the two motors is much more than saying "half a litre" justifies.

I have read this post 3 times and my head hurts.

Why would you find a 3076 on an RB30 annoying? too linear and not enough of a hit?

I've encountered some results from a GTX3582R which I know the conservatives and such forth on here will potential throw toys at - don't shoot the messenger please. This is a "full retard" EVO running running 13:1 compression and race gas on around 30psi. Its stock displacement and clearly not set up for low down torque so much as going apesh1t:

Apesh1t achieved, the most generous that reading could be is crank hp which is still mental for a T3 flanged turbo which spools anywhere near that quick - laggy on a 2litre but an RB30 would make it perfectly useable.

I think that's a great result.

It still has a good 3k of usable power after the bullshit steep ramp. Though you wouldn't want to get caught below the boost threshold.

Dunno that it'd work too well on an rb30. Remember you have to keep the revs below 4k becasue it's only a truck engine.

S2000 and GTX 3076 with Tial .82 hsg

Thats very,very impressive for 1bar and pump fuel.

And looking at the 500hp graph, it certainly shows there is much more left in it. Doesnt dive over at all.

Ill be doing a direct bolt off/on comparison between the GT35 and GTX35 in the coming months.

thats got to be predicted flywheel. the GTX35 flows about the same as a T04Z and thats not capable of 920@ the hubs.

Probably flywheel though usually it says it and you see a TCF field, but even then 920hp at the fw is taking nothing from it

You're trolling right? Either that or a retard? Truck engine? Don't go over 4k?

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
