lag sucks

^this.

I'm over the GTX3076, swapping back to the 71 again. If the whale was manual it would be a different story I suspect.

Don't go too big for a road car, you will be kicking yourself.

Area under the curve always wins.

Told ya when you were making the swap.....I would stick on a GT3076 and win even more on the whale.

Swapping from the GT3076 to the HTA3076 was the best thing i ever did!

Have you ever run the GTX3071? Fan or not they are an impressive turbo in my book.

I made great power with it, it handled all the track work I threw at it, was quite responsive, even with the 1.06 Tial rear... What more would I want from a $900 turbo that bolts straight in to my setup?

I am not a fan of Precision's ceramic bearings, after having seen a few failures on customer cars. BW refuse to make a turbo that is compact enough. Looks like I will have to stick with old faithful Garrett. I'm sure I could do much worse.

Yes I have driven the GTX3071 and they are a good turbo but I still think the GT3076 is a better thing.

Better throttle response and the power they output is pretty similar....plus the old school version is cheaper. On a heavy car like a Stagea it all helps.

Better throttle response is subjective, and more based on housing, wastegate design and tune than small differences in turbo spec imo. Strangle the rear and the transient response goes to shit from my experience and internal gates blowing open under pressure won't give you a good indication of response...

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
