My mechanic and i have spoke about turbo choice, we are going ahead with the garret gtx3076r.

Thanks for your help hypergear and thanks to any one from the skyline australia forum for helping out also.

Hmmmm just don't know ! Nothing wrong with that choice, i run it! but a hyper gear would be awsome combo on your car, what rear housing you going to run? you going internal or external gate?

Well I believe there is a strong Bias on his engine builder as many older timers did grew up with the company, even thou I do not agree that it is a better choice for factory manifold and internal gate, but I respect their decisions.

As developments continues, I will make sure the SS internally gated series are always a better bolton option for the Nissan Rb25det engines.

I run the same turbo, the GTX is only a good choice for someone planning on running 25+ psi, otherwise the GT or a Hypergear is a better option imo.

It is a fairly laggy 400kw on e85 turbo choice. What do you want out of your setup?

Just saw he wants to run x frame mine is gt 3076r not to laggy at all with a .63 external and manual lol makes good power, but will expect it to nose over soon on the next time hopefully get 350+ out of it b4 it does , but there are much better choices out there now, more response, better flow, I know I will be changing to some thing else one day soon, but just like to see where I can push this combo too first .

2000 rs you have spent massive $$$ on that stag now and deserve to make good power so be very very careful on turbo choice and who you take advice from . There are ppl on here who are specifically in tune with stagea's and rb engines and turbo choice too suit . You've also got too look at what power delivery you want , do you want a dyno queen lag monster or something that will actually get the stag up and moving street style, do you want a linier v8 style power delivery or do you want a head snap . Be careful on what path you choose

And mechanic so strongly in favour of one turbo over another (when the one he's against is arguably the best choice) isn't a mechanic worth taking your car to.

Seriously, for what you want I doubt you'll find a better turbo than a HG. There are lots of results out there which demonstrate how perfect HGs are for RBs. If your mechanic isn't confident using one, then he has a problem, not the turbo.

I vote find a new mechanic

4bidn1 has a a 3076 56t ,63 same setup/gate on stockyband he had auto aswell

i have hypergear g3with old bigger 58t comp wheel/bigger turbine/bigger .82 exhaust housing

now lets guess which one has way more power under 3800rpm

the 3076 woudnt even make 1psi on a stock converter..

of course you workshop woudnt know this...

remember you have to move a big heavy car. Good ole adelaide

workshops..lol

I am running forged pistons, plan on getting mv auto to strengthen my trans and put a stall converter in..........

The workshop im sending my car too works mostly with rb engines, they have drift cars also.

They have worked with alot of HG turbos, they say they cant get no where near the figures HG have posted on the net Plus the front housing on HG turbos are to big for my application as i am not running a top mounted turbo.

What figures do they get on their Garrett range?

Just on that, are you buying the turbo from them?

With the gt3076 they make around 330rwk on a manual.

And yes they are getting the turbo in for me, i payed a deposit today. the gtx3076r is $2450

The gt3076 is $2050

You pay for what you get these days i guess.

well not really..you got assf**ked by bill with your first turbo, assf**ked by your engine builder

theres plenty of info here to tell you why the gtx3076 woudn't be a good thing for what you want

but you seem to like to get spoon fed,your the type of customer workshops dream about..lol

money doesn't buy brains sadly

    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
