My gtx 2860s with 33 compressor housings are done... And I can't pick them up for 2 weeks. Oh well, let the suspense continue!

just as I'm about to buy 2 GTX2863 cores!!

I might wait n see how you go lol

if those 60s hit at least 420 430kw with those oe housings I'm so doing it.

You may have to wait a while, they shall be going onto the shed shelf at first as I'm doing a road trip to Victoria for 3 weeks straight after i get back.

But yeah as above the 60s should indeed flow a tad more than -5s.

60's would want to hit 420 rwkw considering it's not too hard to do that on bog stock -5's on E85 but without the brain damage.

brain damage?

That's carrying on a bit isn't it?

He's using a .42 compressor cover not a .60 one, we've been through this before haven't we?

Pete's obviously after better spool then dash fives and better response with Power close to a dash 5 or better.

-5's in the .42 compressor cover didn't do 420kw in a .42 comp cover!

Max boost only saw 383kw,

but you expect a lot from a GTX2860 combo that's never been done before and documented?

Let's just praise Pete for actually giving it a go regardless of the result it will spool good.

Here's the pic of the 383kw -5 in .42 compressor cover.

Mmm, 30psi by 4500rpm.

For reference, when you say custom intake piping, you mean the standard gtx anti surge covers with piping made up to suit them?

Yes thats correct. Custom inlet piping to replace the OEM setup.

Can you see a reoccurring theme here?

You put bigger wheels into smaller housings and they fail. Simple as that!

Hate to break it to you guys but billet GTX wheels aren't the magic cure for the issues that plague the stock configuration like you are dreaming up. Look at Gavin here he's ditched the factory plumbing and "HEY PRESTO" hello to some response & power! Garrett obviously put these compressor wheels into these comp covers for a reason don't you think?

But the big issue which you keep overlooking is the turbine housings. GTX wheels require higher pressure ratios to make the power over the old GT series its well documented and i have experienced it 1st hand with my own GT-GTX experience. Now how do you get your turbine to keep up with your magic billet compressor wheel???

Let me answer that for you just in case you're unsure? ;)

YOU CANT WITH THE FACTORY GTR REAR OR -5 REAR THE GTX WHEELS OUT FLOW THOSE TURBINES!!!

judging by your comments you don't know much.

Go back like 10 pages re read.

I'll do it for you.

SIMONS R34

*Std inlet pipes

*Std cooler

What SHIT were you saying again?

You should know your shit before posting garbage it misleads people that don't know better.

LMFAO!

Lol what does that prove? Clearly you know f**k all as there was nothing misleading in what i said so LMFAO ;)

Pauls -5 results beat that so whats ya point? As good a result as it may be its not setting the world on fire nor is it proving that the effort gone into f**king around with GTX's to bolt on is worth while. In fact it makes my point very valid because shitty old -5's still beat it!

Who said anything about winning races? You are the 1 who posted up a graph telling me i didn't know SHIT & that im posting misleading information yeah? You posted a graph of 88lb GTX turbos running 33psi of boost & then i mentioned a set of 72lb GT turbos running 28psi making more power. Can you see where im going with this?

Hate to break it to ya mate but i setup cars for a living and have been working in 1 of the most reputable shops in this land/ possibly in the world who sell parts globally and setup the worlds fastest time attack cars. So im not just some internet muppet staring at graphs making assumptions talking shit via a keyboard.

Whats your claim to fame?

well you said PAULS FIGURE BEATS SIMONS!

I was stating twice now that it's not a race so how does one lose if it's not a race?

So you work in a workshop, you must know everything?

This is why I think your not very smart and now it's on record Mick_o

How is a GTX2863 crammed in a 707160 -5 foreign housing an 88lb turbo ???

GARRETT DID NOT PROVIDE ANYONE A COMPRESSOR MAP FOR A GTX2863 IN A DASH 5 HOUSING! !

its that simple.

Sorry you don't understand, maybe I'm not famous enough for you to pay attention to me.

What if I said I hold the record for the heaviest bench press at my gym, would that be classed as a claim to faim?

Your clogging this thread up too btw.

    • I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....
    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan.
