Has anyone seen or heard of someone shoehorning a GTX 2860 into a -9 or -7 housing?  I have heard that it is possible but just haven't seen it done yet.  I think from memory you still need to use a -5 rear housing?

-5 rear is identical so it's best to use that.

Front wise -5 is to big and you'd need to use -9 from memory. Back a few pages are the gtx 2860s that I did but I used some weird stock turbo covers

Have you seen any power / dyno results from them?  I remember that you had them built but sold them on, trying to weigh up whether the extra hp over -9's is worth the $$$$

I posted this car earlier. It has since gone to a crank trigger and a few other tweaks. New engine so this is how it is for the first few hundred kms before cranking it up again.

 

Did this at 30psi previously. Still same GTX2863's

I guess you could use the OEM comp hsg so sleeving is not required, In my humble opinion this would be a compromise so I just used some old HKS2530 hsgs which are T04B style (aka 5s) with an AR of 0.6

The OEM hsg. A/R is 0.42 and although from what I have read the A/R on the comp. side does not affect things too much unlike the hot side A/R which has a major affect on spool.

Using the OEM comp hsg might make it boost slighty earlier possibly hotter also. Just what I have read.

Anyway I prefer the HKS 2530/2510 gt2860r-5 housings of 0.6 A/R.

I just turned up 2 x 6061 aluminium alloy sleeves 60.00mm OD 42mm ID x 48mm long. Bored out housing to 59.94mm . heated the housing up with heat gun (measuring it to make sure its bigger than 60.00mm) , cooled the sleeves down in freezer then dropped sleeves in the housings. Once cooled machine the profile to suit . Interference fit is permanent like welding but no distortion. I put 2 scotch keys in as well although that was overkill but thats me. The important thing is the 0.06mm interference!. Best not to press it in cold either as it may gall.

Hope this helps some people out wanting to use GTX2860r CHRAs' with Skyline housings.

Keeping my fingers crossed they will be better than my 5s in every way.

So I sold my -5's to a mate. Going on a z32 tt.

Gtx2860's are back on and setup with no boost leaks this time.

New engine and run in nicely. Still a 2.8 but nitto and crank trigger setup.

On bp 98 and 22psi goes pretty well. On e85 better again. Will get dyno tuned soon and hopefully run some more boost. She's spiking if I try to turn up gain. More work needed there.

Some custom intake pipes might get made up to replace the stock rubber ones. Running a mines front pipe with 89mm outlet, 100 cell cat and 89mm full exhaust. Not setup to dyno queen, but just haul in general :)

You missed a few steps. it's normally people saying they don't work, the poster say I'm going to make it work, everyone saying ok good luck, the poster saying it didn't work, everyone else saying we told you so

not sure what drugs you guys are on, but GTX turbos will be much better than -5s. 

keen to see the results.

Every result posted has shown otherwise? 

Putting GTX compressor wheels into compressor housings they weren't designed to be in, along with turbines that dont have the flow to generate the revs needed for the extra boost required for a GTX wheel to "do its thing" will be much better will it?

Be happy to be proven wrong but history will repeat itself.

Post 137. One of many examples.

J.U.N.K!

    • Howdy All! Minutes from this year's AGM attached! Thank you to the old committee for a great year & good luck to the new (*cough* same) team for the year ahead! See you all soon!   SAUNSW_2024 AGM Minutes_04052024.pdf
    • Hey guys! Just rolled into this awesome community and let me tell you, I'm stoked!  Cars have been my jam for as long as I can remember, and there's nothing I love more than talking about them. It doesn't matter if it's the latest performance mods, DIY hacks that'll blow your mind, or just nerding out over engine specs –  I'm all in. I know I'm the new guy here, but I promise I'm not all talk. I want to be a part of this community, learn from the veterans, and maybe even make some friends along the way. So, whether you've been wrenching on rides for decades or just getting started like me, feel free to say hi, share some advice for a newbie, or just throw out a random car fact (because, let's face it, those are always fun!). Looking forward to getting to know you all and becoming part of this gearhead family! Thanks Pihu
