Hey guys, im currently in the middle of building my r32 gtr, its getting all the supporting mods like bigger fmic, injectors, computor, pump, sump, etc.. only difference was i chose to run a single turbo with a 6boost manifold, split pulsed, t3 flange with a gtx3582r with a split pulsed .82 housing.

Now my builders and tuner strongly recommended me to go bigger with the exhaust housing go to a 1.06. Although there are no split pulsed 1.06 for gtx35 in t3 flange.

i guess i should mention the engine is getting rebuilt with, tomei type b cams, forged pistons, forged rods and bearings. they said there is vertualy not much difference in turbo lag between the .82 and 1.06 with the rb26 hence the suggestion of changing.

Is my turbo really gunna run out of breath with the .82 housing on a non stroked engine?

Should i change my housing the a 1.06 open t3 and will manifold work fine still with that setup? been 2x 40mm waste gates too cause of the split pusle setup.

Or should i keep my .82 split pulse setup?

I just wanna do it right the first time, thanks guy for any input.

.82 split pulse will indeed be small. It's not the "normal" size of a .82 from a single housing - that is the point they are making.

Most generally seem to go the 1.06/T4 split pulse if heading down that road. Or a .82 in a non-split setup.

Thanks nismoid. I kinda understand now.

so is there is a difference in size between the split pulse .82 and open .82? i thought it was ratio and it would be the same dispite the divider in the middle.

Does that mean my manifold is not good? should i bother getting the t4?

or

its fine just switch it to a 1.06 open housing?

I really wish i went the t4 flange, kyle from 6boost suggested that the t4 is probably too big and stick with the t3 .82 housing. Im not blaming him. just wished i did my research before hand. :( :( :( :( :(

god dayummmmmmm

Im running an open 1.06 Tial rear on a GTX3071, I would say there would be 2-300 rpm difference in spool between that and the 0.82.

Go the larger housing to keep exhaust temps down, especially if you plan to ramp the boost up.

An open housing will bolt up to the T3 split manifold no problem. I wouldnt worry about the flange.

Yeah thanks for that mate, i did see that but because its from america and ive had bad experiences buying shit from over sea's and not fitting etc. On the other hand australia gets our turbo's from america aye? so it would work?

ah ok thanks heaps for the advice man, im gunna check out that t3 split pulse 1.06 housing on that website black br32 sugggested (from america). if its no good ill just get the open 1.06.

thanks :)

im currently using the t4 version of that ATP housing. i purchased it off their housing website any problems.

it fits and works but the casting isnt up to the same standards as the garrett housings. having said that though they seam to work fine and perform well. i had a few troubles with fitment but all of them were due to the massive T4 flange and manifold design, with a T3 flange it should be easy.

ah thats good to no, atleast i can trust to buy off them, How long till u got the part?

Thats weird cause on the caption for the housing it says "GT35R 1.06 A/R T3 divided (twin-scroll) turbine housing. Garrett casting, 3" V-band outlet."

So it isnt made by garrett? So there was no problem fitting it to the turbo, just to the manifold? why is that i thought its just 4 bolts?

Thanks heaps aye

yer your right that is a garrett casting, sorry. in that case it'll be fine.

the T4 flange fouled on one of the compressor housing bolts (i couldnt rotate it out of the way) so i had to leave it out and undoing/tightening the oil feed requires taking off the compressor housing. also due to the design to seperate the turbo from manifold i had to take both out of the car with the lines attached and do it on the ground, impossible to get to on the motor. but its from a combination of the massive T4 flange and the design of the hks low mount manifold.

edit: cant remember how long postage took sorry, was way too long ago

Im pretty sure if you call Kyle he will be able to change the flange for you to T4 if needed

Im also fairly certain a lot of manifolds are coming out T3/T4 split pulse friendly. IE with a T4 sized base plate and T3 split pulse ports and bolt holes to suit both. I am under the impression running a T4 split pulse on a manifold like that wouldnt hurt anything, probbly best to talk to kyle about that though.

yeah true, bit late now tho cause my build is in progress :(

Ah really wish i new that before hand lol.

ah right, haha that is a bit of mucking around, glad to hear it worked out for u in the end tho. i sent them a message about it, if not ill just go a t3 1.06 open housing.

i have a t4 divided 1.06 ATP rear housing on a gtx35, like Jonno said there are a pain but nothing you should run away from.

lucky me i can get all my comp cover bolts on and i actually ended up making a 200 degree open end spanner to help do up the lines still a bitch but works.

im running a 6boost t4 divied manifold and bolts up not a prob.

Ah really, thanks ill probably order the t3 1.06 divided off ATP then as i just discovered the mark up price on these housings is huge in australia. Its a bit late to send my manifold up to kyle to get it changed to t4, maybe one day when i upgrade to a bigger turbo. (hopefully it can be done without dramas).

the gtx35 ure running it on rb26? how is it? sound good? what boost u running it at? when does full boost kick it? you happy u chose that turbo?

thanks heaps for the info mate.

havnt got any numbers yet, the set up is on a RB30with 26 head dry sump motor.

i went this setup cause i thought it would be the most responsive setup but still achieve 500-550rwhp on E85

its all in a S14a silvia.. track car been setup for curcuit / time attack

Lol thats overkill for 500-550whp on E85 man - should still see >600whp on a DD if you leaned on it a bit. Just be a bit wary of EGTs on the track/drift, one of the guys here had one on his SR20 S15 running 600-700hp @ hubs on E85 and the divider in the ATP TS housing cracked... not ideal.

yeah i know just want it to be reliable as well and be able to add more power if needed for different curcuits like Eastern creek

thats not good about the divider, i think ill be going individual EGT sensors on the manifold runners to make sure tune is as reliable as it can be

    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
