Yep, you're doomed. Tried and proven to be rubbish.

To OP: put a proper Garrett .82-IW rear on it and all your problems should be solved. You might also have leaks or otherwise as suggested, but at least you then know the housing isn't the issue (which they all are)

If you know what your doing you can try ramping up the boost with the AVCR, ive had the same lazy boost issues recently with my gtx3076, finally found the intake manifold gasket had been blown out , also wondering about the resonator if it has a restrictor inside like the old muffler had in it.

yepp this.

you need to get rid of that Sonic POS before you go any further.

genuine garrett .82 internal gate will be perfect. dont need external gate for your goals.

there probably is a leak somewhere, yet the point is good luck trying to diagnose poor performance (once the would be leak is found) if that housing is still on it.

I think OP accepts that fact tho, so its fine. it will take some work to get it right, but hes on the right track now.

Hey guys sorry to hijack, im new to the rb life, looking at buying a r33 rb25, gt3076r .82, highmount steampipe, 40mm ext gate, 880cc injectors, walbro pump and haltech platinum pro, claimed to make 306 rwkw on 14psi.

Does that sound right??

Thanks

Awaiting more info in it, fairly sure its pump fuel, also pretty sure it uses standard inlet manifold as it has a blitz turnflow cooler, unsure of internal mods cam pistons ect. just wanted a rough idea if it possible dyno sheet is supplied for 306 but cant tel from pic what boost its on

lithium has made similar numbers on similar boost. i think 17psi makes 300 without stress and a good tune

300 on 14psi is probably a slightly happy dyno and more like 280kw on a more sensible one

still sounds the goods :)

Internate gate is fine, figure out why it is laggy and not working, the fact that it isn't making 18psi until 5500 means the wastegate is flowing perfectly, if it was a wastegate issue you'd be boost spiking.

Do all the usual stuff like smoke test the intake, check the actuator isn't loose and the gate is sealing, drop exhaust, get the tune checked out etc etc.

edit: those housings get poor results, just do a search to see the guys before you and what they found, 0.63 or 0.82 housing will be a big upgrade, depends how much response you want.

Does it run e85 or wmi?

If its just 98 the number is plausible on 18-20psi or a really happy hub dyno

generally we see 280 @19psi so yeah 304 on 14psi is extremely unlikely.

Had another on on today, twin scroll dual tials and made 290rwkw @19psi neo motor. full boost around 3400-3500.

That sounds like it'd be awesome and is a good result for a car on 98, was it with a 6boost manifold?

Bigger cams or stock?

could you screw much more boost into it on 98?

Would anyone be able to post what this genuine Garrett GT30 .82 IW rear housing looks like please for reference. Now that I know my MTQ housing is rubbish.

this is the one, shop around tho..

    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
