I figure if an Evo TD0516G can do 206 kw two may work in the right housings .

To make a GTX67 with the 90 trim cropped turbines it's probably easier to start with a 2867 cartridge and exchange turbines .

If you're going to use GTRS comp housings make sure you get cartridges with the 52T 71mm GT compressor because that what GTRSs have .

A few of you know about the problems and stress I had with Jacky Chan from CJ Motor when I bought my HTA turbo from him.

When I spoke to Mike the Manager from Forced Performance he told me they only had one official distributor here in Australia. Charles from Lamspeed. I was in contact with Charles a few times, he is helpful and knows his stuff.

If you are thinking of buying one of these turbos I would either buy directly from Forced Performance or if you want buy local use Charles from Lamspeed.

This is why i went direct!

What was the result in the end if you don't mind me asking? Did you sort out the turbo/money? I know it's not right to be talking negatively about a workshop/supplier but if they are down right scamming people then fair play I say

Yeah try not to name names or put shit on workshops on the forum, it always ends up badly... Feel free to elaborate just dont put names etc on it if you can avoid it!

Or PM each other if you feel the need...

FP have been pretty busy, looks like a bunch of their range has been getting a bit of a make over - the HTA3076 and HTA3582 now have custom antisurge FP compressor covers with 3.25" intakes, and also their own turbine housing options, the HTA3076 has a .73a/r option, and the already known of .85 option for the GT3582R.

Still hoping to hear results for the 6466TZ, though the HTZ range is growing - Rob has already confirmed a 79HTZ compressor and there are potentially others coming along soon.

The new HTA3076s look like this: 84GT761.jpg

Yeah its the super 94 twin scroll, the motor should be nearly finished by lewis maybe 2 more weeks then shipped to gold coast to be fitted and a run in tune so should be running within a month but I work away so its a pain in the ass trying to organize stuff but getting closer now, heres some more hta porn

Can't wait to see how this beast goes?

Not the prettiest looking thing :P

Just made a build thread so you can keep updated

Haha, was going to wait till its sorted and run all in.... also been bloody busy lately.

Spool seems more or less PT6466 spool Whig is a good start. If it lives up to the HTA 3794 flow numbers then it's a damn good thing

Just a bit of a FYI, while I was discussing turbo options for a mate I was pointed at this - Owen Developments in the UK are partnered with FP and given they have an aftermarket more like ours, the range of FP HTA/HTZ based turbos they have are probably more relevant to NZ and Oz. Here are some which may be particularly interesting here:

This beasty I reckon could be a neat "next step up" for those who an HTA3076 isn't quite enough but full GT3582R type madness is a bit too much:

HTA2865: http://www.owendevelopments.co.uk/product/430/Owen_Developments-Garrett_ODGT2865HTA/

^ This and the HTA2868 for GTRs and Silvias... tbh I'd be particularly interested in the HTA2865 in twin form, not sure how it'd go but the 2868s have apparently worked well but I'd consider them a bit on the large side for most people's taste - especially with that turbine.

HTA3073: http://www.owendevelopments.co.uk/product/429/Owen_Developments-Garrett_ODGT3073HTA/

^ This one should need no introduction, has been discussed but there has been question on if it is still done. It is, apparently :)

The FP Zephyr HTZ compressor on a GT35 turbine, guessing this would be a very nice and probably better matched alternative for those who would otherwise consider a GTX3576R - HTZ3579: http://www.owendevelopments.co.uk/product/389/Owen_Developments-Garrett_ODGT3579HTA/

These all have steel bearing cages, too.

I think the HTA2865 would be good on a 2.8, but a touch big for a 2.6 and the turbine a touch small for a 3.0, I would like to see a HTA3068 as a bolton for those of us with 3.0 cause IMO the 28 turbine becomes a restriction when you get into the mid-high 20 psi range

If a 2.6, 2.8 or a 3.0 are making say 700 hp, would exhaust has volume be any different?

If everything downstream of the engine provides the same resistance to a given amount of flow, but the engine itself provides less resistance to whatever is pumping into it (ie, turbos) then there becomes less intake pressure versus exhaust pressure... which happens to be one of the bigger influences on volumetric efficiency.

I could be wrong, but there may be an answer to our turbine issues soon...

If a 2.6, 2.8 or a 3.0 are making say 700 hp, would exhaust has volume be any different?

All things been equal I believe so but there are to many variables like engine efficiency etc

The 3 would also be doing it at different RPMs as they flow different amounts at the same RPM which was my point, a 3.0 at 8000rpm flow a fair bit more then a 2.6 at the same rpm and even more when you start puming 28psi of boost pressure into it

    • Hey guys, Just want some advice on r34 GTT ac system. Since I’ve owned it, the ac compressor, doesn’t matter the set temperature or ambient temperature, runs for around 10 seconds then disengages the clutch, then re-engages everywhere 30 seconds or so and keeps repeating this.    is this normal?   I had it recharged today as it was slightly low and thought it would fix it but still does it. it cools fine in summer even prior to the recharge, except for the usual warmup when stopped or in traffic (still yet to wire overheat fan to on with ac)   any thoughts would be much appreciated 
    • To plug the hole. The engine plant may not have known whether the car it was going into had a gauge or not. It was a long time ago and the integrations might not have been fully modern. Or they might not have cared because the extra inventory and processes to save a few cents on the sender might have cost more anyway. But please tell me you are not still confusing the idea of a pressure gauge sender, and an oil pressure light switch. The switch will be out there. In a separate hole. Probably with only one wire running to it. Running the light.
    • Blower needs to go low on the exhaust side, displacing the AC and PS, which you have to decide whether you want to keep and how and where to relocate if you do. Electric option for PS is, at least, helpful. Sadly, there is no workable 12V electric AC of any value. Whilst the blower is the last compression step before the throttle, and so it might seem a good idea to have it near the inlet manifold (as mentioned above), you probably want it to go through an intercooler first, so, having it on the opposite side of the car facilitates that air flow path. The turbo discharges into the blower, so proximity of the turbo's compressor outlet to the blower's inlet is nice. But then you might want to intercool that too, before boosting it again....which would probably be a ball ache. Routing pipes out to the front and back could be a bit shit. If there was room for (at least) a small (but preferably larger) water to air core on that side, then that would probably be the best approach. I guess a reasonable alternative would be to locate the blower where the alternator is (more or less, associated with the inlet manifold, per Matt's thought), and somehow incorporate a water to air core into the manifold, sort of like they do for modern blown V8s. The big difference here though is that those V8s have only the one throttle (upstream the blower) and only the one compression step (the blower) and no need for too much in the way of bypass/blowoff valves. Whereas in a twin charged 6, you do need to think about one or two bypass valves associated with the 2 compressors and you would prefer to have the intercooling done before the air has to pass through the throttle. You'd like the throttle to work approx the same no matter what the compression is doing. But if it is located in hot air stream before a cooler, then sometimes the air will be real hot, sometimes it will be quite cool, and the throttle mapping/response will be quite different between those two cases. The throttle, if sized for hot air, would be too large for cold conditions. It's all a ball ache.
    • Package SC on exhaust side. Remote mount turbo. Still a fair bit of room when you get creative on the inlet side of the motor too. Especially if you can get really creative with the welding, and effectively build it into the bottom of the inlet manifold. Would definitely take some design work, and some trial and error, to make sure flow works well still! Might be easier to just start with the Nissan March though... All the work is already done for you...
