You are not the only one... I think the GTX3071R has the most potential out of the X71/76 and X35 so I am eagerly looking forward to results from someone not shy of using a bit of boost :)

Only pity is it may be held back a little by the internal gate compared to a high mount set up

I agree, its the one I was most looking forward to - however I think the stock manifold(s?) could turn out to be a problem in this particular instance.

is the compressor the only change between the GTX models? eg quite literally nothing other than the compressor + housing has changed?

Yep

No im not gunna be shy with the boost Simon if my fuel system can cop it and the lil GTX can blow 25psi + efficiently its gunna get all it can handle haha all in the name of science of course :nyaanyaa:

Seems the GTX's response if as good as the older GT though which is bit of a downer but it does make good power the baby of the T3 family

Pauls had dramas with a sensor which is quite minor and will be a nothing fix when shops open up again but still did 407rwkw early on.

      R32 gtr transmission strength, billet plate

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      You're already well into "gearbox is a consumable" territory there. A billet plate will either make it (effectively) 1% stronbger or make it last one more pass. At some point you'll probably tear 3rd gear into small chunks and regret all the life decisions that came before it.

      R32 gtr transmission strength, billet plate

      By cosline · Posted

      I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.

      GTX2867R GEN 2 NO OUTPUT FOR BOOST SOLENOID

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.

      Nissan Skyline R34(ER34) Front Suspension Noise

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?
