Yeah you can use the stock manifold on the smaller 20g, but he's right about the rest of it and the question was specifically asking for a 6 bolt option.

if you want a 6 bolt internal gate you will have to look at hypergear. even the 6 bolt 3076s have proven to suck compared to the full custom route.

so long story short if you want a good low hassle bolt on turbo you need to look at a hypergear.

anyone wanting something different or more custom for whatever reason can look into all the other options.

Has anyone used one of the Kinagawa actuators before? Specifically this one:

And if so:

1) Are they any good?

2) I assume this would fit a GTX3071R (A/R .60 front cover)?

3) Is the top of the actuator rotatable so I can reposition the boost input to any direction I like?

Cheers! :cheers:

I have one of those at home but am yet to use it. I will update that in a few weeks if you can wait.

Its actually a 2 port actuator, just ask Eiji for a second nipple as the thread is there.

You can undo the top and rotate it, yes.

It's a good quality item from what I can see. No issues from me.

Hey guys, finally got my TD05-18G mounted. Just curious, both water inlet/outlets have an "upper" and "lower" ports for the banjo fittings. Are you able to mix and match which ones you bolt into? I.e use the upper for the inlet side of the water lines, and lower for the outlet? I didn't even think of this before bolting it all up.

P.S TD05-18G Ext Gate 8cm 100% won't bolt onto the stock manifold without atleast a 10cm spacer, and longer studs.

did u mount urs to the stock manifold?how long were the studs u used?

Yeah stock manifold, I wound out my studs 2-3 threads to give me enough thread for the nuts (8-9mm in thickness) to bolt down.

If I run into dramas later on then I will try replace them with ones about 10-15mm longer then standard/

u cannot use the water ports for in and out on the one side of the block.

That CHRA is a copy of an MHI core which has 4 water ports.

On some models they come from factory using 2 ports from the same side.

If Mitsubishi fit em up like that from stock, I doubt they would agree that you cannot do it.

Does the return on the top only apply if both are on the one side?

No, the return needs to be at the top if possible, otherwise the turbo may fill with steam or just hold air in the pocket. I guess it depends on the setup though and how hard it's driven.

Just think of what would happen at the track, the turbo is red hot and will be for a while as you pull back in. The water is barely flowing at idle and if you turn the engine off there is no flow. In this case the water will turn to steam and it needs to go somewhere. It needs to get to the radiator cap to be purged from the system.

The steam and hot water can create water flow if done right using convection to cool the turbo better.

I forget the name of it...but there is a word to describe the principle of water circulation after the engine is shut down. Hot water rises pulling cooler water up through the core so there is actually flow through the turbo after shutting down

i believe its convection

I've fitted my T67 up yesterday and i'm having trouble with the vbands being shithouse and not tightening enough. Mainly the one to hold the CHRA in, it doesnt do up enough to stop the core from moving, I can see this being a pain and having to keep moving it back.

Has anyone else got this problem???

    • Hello First, I apologize if this is not the correct forum. Let me know and I will move it to the correct one. I'm having a problem with the tachometer on my Skyline R33 with an RB25DET Neo engine. I'll tell you from the beginning. I'll tell you from the beginning. I have the RB25DET Neo engine installed in a Nissan Patrol GU, with a Link G4X control unit specifically for that engine,  and I have fitted a Skyline R33 tachograph to the original GU dashboard, but it doesn't work properly. I have the tachometer connected to the positive and negative terminals of the GU panel's wiring, and the signal cable is connected directly to the ECU output pin, but the rpm fluctuates widely. Can anyone tell me if the output signal from an R33 ECU is the same as the output signal from an R34 ECU, or if the voltage and signal type are different? Regards and thanks.  
    • I guess it was the thought about "Oh if I were to drive this everyday". Then no, SL500 I wouldn't really consider lmao. 
    • Yeah actually really fair point. Idk what I was thinking when looking at the SL500. Now that I think about it, I feel like I would have more enjoyment out of a shitbox that I would need to repair than some fancy merc. Although I must admit the SL500 does look quite nice. My bad hahaha.
    • 100% Also "Not wanting to spend money" is THE WORST IDEA IMAGINABLE when coming to a project car of any kind. They EXIST to BURN MONEY. Sure, gas money is a thing. A stock car with the worst fuel economy ever sold would probably be cheaper than modifying a car with FREE petrol for the life of your ownership of it, lol.
    • Amount of time you're being observed by law enforcement is so minute, that you could be a dumb shit 90% of your driving time, and never lose a demerit. You could also be the best driver ever and still get hit with a fine.   When you realise how quickly everything turns from "Wee, we're having fun!" To "oh f**k oh f**k oh f**k", you start to realise the only way to be a good driver, is to not be doing anything dumb or unexpected by normies on the road. You want to go fast, go to the track. Someone there in a 1990s slow POS will also show you how bad of a driver you are as they lap 10 seconds per lap quicker than you can in a car that should be considerably faster.
