ASked Stao about a bush bearing hi flow with 360 washers...$960

Asked him about getting a 3071 core and this is what he said:

Well, there is no point going for 3071 CHRA in your high flow as the rear housing of it is already small and our customized will produce more power then the 3071 profile. There will be no difference in response based on factory housings, plus bush bearing is a more relaible setup then the ball bearing setup. The 3071 high flow cost $1550 AUD, you need to change all water, and oil lines to suit that CHRA.

The factory housing is not big enough to flow 350rwkws. The max we can that that to is 300rwkws on a manual, Auto will be about 25KW behind plus it won't handle any thing relaiably above 230rwkws. I would recommend you to use our standard high flow option with a high pressure actuator to achieve that goal.

hmmm stick with bush bearing i guess?

Who was asking for 350awkw on a highflow? lol.

Stao has only seen the rear housing once? So he doesn't have any data anyway as to the AR and flow of the rear housing. Craig has already proven them to 270 with the 3071, on 15 psi wasnt it? Perhaps 25 psi on ethanol may get you to 350? If you push it...

.....If i'm at 270AWKW's at 15psi on BP and the only reason we didn't push it to 300AWKW's was the GB(correct me if I'm wrong Scott) was just about to shit it's self.....then 340AWKW's on E85 is more than capable of happening with 30/71 Garret BB set....going buy what he things is the RW to AW difference is add 25KW's(his figure....mines closer to 40kw's) to that.......

and yes there is a bit to change to get a Garrett setup working......but I would not say a lot!

Comes to how much you want to develop......If I had my time again I would still go for a Garrett BB set....I might have gone a little smaller though!...maybeninja.gif

P.S. I am not saying bush is shit......but I am not willing to accept that a proper BB setup is not as reliable either when done properly!

and what Scott said he answer at the same time!...lol

Go the BB f you want. Hypergear actually do high flow with a BB core properly.

What Stao is referencing there with his power figures is the RB25det.

As you can see from other members experiences, this is not relevant to the VQ25det.

hmm ok...

in all seriousness though if I get 220-240 awkw I'd be happy. Anything more means gearbox needs to be rebuilt and I'm not ready $$ wise for that. Neither is manual conversion...

The potential to go 300awkw with the bush is there....I might just go with that and IF I have the $$ for a gearbox rebuild later on we can always up the psi then to hit higher power...

Can someone let me know any specs or size that I need to tell Stao for the hi flow?

what are you running scotty ? and how does it perform any cons?

And never will be relevant, we have much thinner castings on the rear so even though it looks small, the nossle is actually bigger than a op7 rear on the 34's.

I have a stage one sierra bush highflow, makes positive boost at just over 2k. With an auto you dont want to go too big as the stall converter would have to be opened up to compensate for the lag. Mine seems almost perfect as the 3k stall gets me up into full boost (20psi) almost straight away. Aaron's is much less responsive.

what do you mean by sierra stage 1,2 highflow ??

so your happy with what your gains are without trans mods etc?

how much

He will be pushing for a 3076, but if you are happy with 220-240, just go the 3071 core.

Then get a G-zone to piggyback your eManage onto (removes the throttle restriction and speed limiter)

Hmm see Stao's response when I asked him about the 3071 core - he pretty much said no?

I want what scott's got...:teehee:

The go spend extra money with Kyp.

Then get your car on an ethanol blend.

Simple really.

Kyp also said "no" to the other highflow spec that I gave him, but he did it anyway and the owner was very happy with the result.

Its like spitting in their face. lol. They are turbo builders not housing machinists. They will never WANT to do a Garrett core. :laugh:

I meant his hiflow SIZE and specs, not his power output....grrrr

We've have archived 305rwkws with Our customized wheel combination (PU profile) based on 98 fuel which would be around 350rwkws on E85. With aftermarket comp housing we've managed to reach 345rwkws on 98 fuel which should be around 400rwkws on E85. There still are people using sierra wheels, how ever to us that is part of the history.

What's PU profile?

The standard we use is in either 71mm 52T, 56T, 76mm 52T, 56T, 58T.

Depending on what power you are after. With the standard profile that we use is in 76mm 52T.

All we need to know is the HP / (rwkws) you want, leave the combination work to us.

Which one should I go for for max response?

As far as what I've learnt at Stao's workshop doing my high flow that he used to use the Sierra turbine wheel when he first started, then found its not been able to flow enough while creeping too much heat due to its blade design working with factory turbine housing, cropping it makes it super laggy.

He's made a special turbine wheel that is touch bit larger then Garrett GT30s with much larger exducer. Works out to be an 86T GT30 wheel. That made heaps more power while not adding any much more lag. Going by his highflow thread you actually notice he's current high flows made heaps more power then what he originally started.

On the comp wheel side they have customized wheels with skinny hub and large blades so in theroy they would flow lot more then what standard Garrett comp wheel would based in the same size and trim.

I generally would not be comparing them to other high flows using Garrett along parts. The best way would be tell him what HP you want and let them do the thinking.

I could listen to all this talk of turbo matching all day, the bloody things fascinate me. I almost WANT mine to fail so I can join the fun...

Almost...whistling.gif

In that case just turn your boost up to 20 psi for a win/win situation!

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
