Fantastic result. Bit better than my 268kws. When does it feel like it's running out of puff, revs wise. Mine starts to feel flat after 5,500rpm just like the hi-flow I had from GCG. Which was a crap turbo by the way. Wasted a couple of grand on that one trying to get it over the 23okw mark. I have done 308,000k's in my car so I hope you look after yours and have as much fun as I have. Mind you, I'm on my second engine and 2nd gearbox and 2nd diff and 4th clutch, but hey, don't worry about all that. Engines are cheap so make sure you enjoy it.

A couple of tips. Replace your coils around every 140,000k's. Just replacing my 2nd set again now. You will need to replace all the relays attached to the engine loom and coils at 300,000k's or before if the car is thrashed on hot days alot. Heat is the enemy. I have replaced the coil harness just now and it fixed a little miss in the top end. Have alook at engine mounts and gearbox as well, they will let go in spectacular fashion if left with any defects from constant cicuit work. So many things to do so I'll stop before I make myself stress. :yes:

*cough* I near sprayed my computer with coffee, my gt3071 sr20 curve is nearly identical, even peak power. I won't post it as i don't want to take away from micks results as that is awesome for a .63 IW on a stock manifold. No boost control issues either which is a relief.

Out of interest, what boost controller do you run mick as i would have thought it would hit full boost a lot sooner (under 3k) based on my old rb25 results.

Your setup is wayyy different, this is bolting on a turbo, intercooler, injectors and afm to a stock setup. Not fair to compare.

Full boost under 3000rpm is ludicrous on this type of setup. Even the most responsive of turbos that hit the ceiling at 240-250rwkw cant make 20psi by 3000rpm.

It's doable. 2 of mine when i was trying to get it right on the rb25, unfortunately not showing 20 by 3k in either of these as we were battling boost control issues. On road it would crack 20psi by 3k in 4th on a flat road easily.

Same basic setup as Mick's but with a .63 and a set of drop in cams.

I heard you might be looking for a turbo, liz, I'll pm you the sr results

edit: the bottom one was boost control via the right foot so not even wide open throttle, hence the really bad curve.

Not making 288rwkw on 98 fuel, I dont think its possible to get 20psi by 3000rpm.

Increasing the ramp rate can move the response earlier too. Mine hits 20psi by 3200rpm (9 second ramp rate) but only makes 245rwkw on 98 fuel.

Graphs look like they are from a auto?

Here us another GTX3071 with poncams on a neo rb25det.

Pretty damn impressive for a 71 on only 15psi in the top range. Apparently the boost is wrong on the graph, it comes on a lot sooner than it indicates, an issue with the sensor having lag apparently.

Can read about it all here http://forum.nistune...&t=950&start=60

tuner was very surprised with the result as well.

Cheers Lithium it felt quite good with the unfinished tune which it made 266kw and the little squirt i gave it last night it came on a bit sooner and felt really strong i shifted from 2nd to 3rd at bout 5000rpm but she was starting to break traction at 4000rpm lol. Ive never heard a 25 with a 3076 tbh but its quite whistly ill try putting a vid up of it on the dyno and ill let you be the judge :thumbsup:

Nice work - glad that went smoothly, nice stout amount of power... definitely not a normal GT3071R :D

Tbh without any prompting I'd have thought it was a GT3076R dyno plot, but dyno plot doesn't tell the whole story - after you've had some time to get acquianted it'll be interesting to see how you find it. Out of interest, with that 11blade wheel does the GTX3071R have the same kind of anti-surge whistle craziness the GT3076Rs do?

Im running a HKS EVC 6 boost controller dave i still think there is bit of fiddling with the controller to be done yet to help bring it on bit sooner

Mine's absolutely silent, are you sure its not the BOV leaking or something else?

Thanks Jeff i didnt go for more boost on the dyno but when my controller wasnt set up properly it easily shot up to near 27psi and started spinning 3rd gear at bout 90km/h :whistling:

Great work Mick!!

Did you try going any higher with boost just to see how the turbo handles it? My understanding is thats where the GTX shines.

Hey Gary cheers for the tips mate they are duely noted :thumbsup: to be honest even when the tune was incomplete it felt like it pulled all the way 7500rpm and unfortunately i havent seen lotsa revs yet.

Id actually like to thank everybody in here who gave me advice on my setup because you guys really did save me money and steered me in the right direction with my car! :worship:

Im pretty sure its all induction noise scotty well i hope it is lol! surely the 4 or 5 lads that were all over my car while it was on the rollers woulda picked up on it :rolleyes:

    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
    • My experience with Rising Sun Exports Before agreeing to the sale I tried to do as much research as I could (obviously), his Facebook reviews are 98% and he goes Live at least once or twice a week. I contacted 2 people in the UK who had used him for their imports, both had positive feedback. His explanation and talk through of the import process was thorough, answering any query no matter how stupid it was. It felt as soon as the money was sent, communication dropped off. I asked for shipping updates every 2 weeks or so, not wanting to pester him, he never had any updates. I wasn't informed the car had been dropped off at the port, I only found out by his Facebook story. I asked for the photos taken at the port, knowing he would need some for insurance purposes. I received a few 5 second clips and that's it. When asked again, he said his staff had them. Weeks later I asked again, he tells me he doesn't have any, but does have 50 photos from the original advert. I never received them. I eventually got the documents sent via WhatsApp after I mentioned the port was requesting them. I purchased a CarVX report, to find out the vehicle is a Grade R with recorded accident damage, first recorded in 2017 when it was first auctioned. He never told me the grade, then again I didn't ask. His response was "Grade R means nothing, it wasn't chassis damage". Still, I would have liked to have been informed about it. Jon prides himself on being open and honest when it comes to inspecting cars, it's his main job doing so at the auctions for customers. When the vehicle arrived in the UK I noticed a few little cosmetic issues. It's a 21 year old car so it wasn't going to be mint condition. The side skirts are cracked on each corner and the sealant is failing. The front grill on the bonnet/hood isn't secured very well, mounting studs are missing. Both minor things, but again, it would have been nice to be told. During a Facebook Live walk around video of the vehicle, he mentioned it has a front Whiteline anti roll bar/sway bar. While on the inspection ramp, I noticed the stock item has been installed. When first questioned, his response was "the ARB? Switched? Since when, it never had them". Since sending video and photo evidence I've not received a response. I'm probably being over critical of the overall condition of an old car, but all I wanted was honesty (which he claims to have). I'm aware I wasn't his only customer, he's busy doing XYZ but other reviews praise him for great communication with regular updates and photos, I felt I didn't receive the same treatment.
