Yep. I'd love to see a HTA3582 on a twin cam RB30.

please someone do it with the neo 25 head for high-ish compression, VCT and decent lift cams in stock form.

Killer response combo with massive boostability. maybe mid 400's rwkw on E85? can't say for sure

There would be a power difference but I personally wouldn't go smaller than a HTA3582 on an RB30, remembering that the HTAs spool noticeably better than the GT, the difference between a GT3076R and a HTA3582 on a 3 litre should also not be a huge deal

In the GTX3067 thread it was expected that the compressor wheel being small would spool up fast, but with the 0.82 rear it would seem to be very on par with a GT3076 meaning that the

GT30 turbine has a big say in how things spool. So in the case of a HTA3582 can you be that confident that it would spool that much earlier than a normal GT3582 based on the GTX3067

results?

To go down the HTA35 route It would have to be giving a good push in the seat around 3000rpm to justify the expense over a cheaper GT3076 on a Dedicated street car, being GT35 hotside

with stock manifolds and pistons it would might not be able to justify itself being there as far as its power potential, and a GT3076 RB30 might leave it behind in the short city streets where the 2500-6000rpm is probably the sweet spot?

that's assuming they don't just leave black lines everywhere.

Ok, on stock manifolds I would possibly look at it differently... I am not sold on expecting to make good use of near 70lb/min turbos like that.

In regards to the GTX3067R results with .82 housing is in almost no way comparable to this, so many levels of different kettle of fish to this comparison.

If you want a general indicator of comparable HTA versus GT on the same turbine, check out 34GeeTeeTees post on the first page of the HTA thread.

I think you need to be serious enough money wise to justify the GT30/35 HTA turbos , at a certain gas speed the standard manifold will become a problem and the larger the engine is the more apparent that would become . Costs would escalate faster with header manifolds and gates and stealth dies a quick death .

Hard to say what size turbo (turbine size) is the limit on the factory manifold . Be interesting to see a 3076HTA and the 0.82 GT30 IW hanging off the standard one .

I think it's impossible to say that the GT30 turbine limits an RB30 because no ones ever tried one in the largest 1.06 IW turbine housing AFAIK . Again back to questionable turbine maps but the GT30 1.06 combination is vaguely similar to the GT35 0.82 combination . I reckon GT35 turbines are fine for driving 82mm compressors and maybe even the GTX76mm one but the GT30 doesn't do too badly on the 76mm GT or HTA compressor wheels .

If Mick o screwed 330 wheel wasps out of his RB25 with a 0.82 GTX3071R we know the stock manifold is at least that good . We don't know what a 1.06 GTX3076R or GT3076HTA would be like with this manifold on an RB30 , it may do even better .

Actually , RB30 would lift the turbo up off the engine mount with the HKS cast RB20/25 manifold . Mmm interesting possibilities and I got me one of them .

A .

PJ's dyno running a GT3076/3037 with HKS 1.06 (from memory) ex hsg on an SR20.

Over 500hp on E85. From memory it set some kind of Australian quarter mile record at the time in that state of tune.

Yeah both Dave and I ran identical power on an RB with the GT3037/3076..... 363rwkw is where they stopped! Same dyno etc... This was with the 0.82 rear housing!

HKS did non gated T25 flanged GT30 turbine housings in 0.61 0.73 0.87 1.01 and I think 1.12 .

I guess this proves that the port through the T25 flange is big enough not to be a greater flow limiter than the volute passage .

The thing is that little flange wouldn't work too well if it had 6 runners merging into it .

Years ago someone in the States had a GT3037 52T in a HKS T25 flanged 0.73 housing and the tubular manifold was quite involved . Being in a FrWd Sentra B13 with an SR20 the manifold had the turbo out over the boxes bell housing and the ext gate was between the merge and the turbine housing inlet .

HKS housings had better formed passages and nozzles than Garrett production ones and looked more like the Tial ones of today .

Also people the "GT35" turbine housings are really machined out GT30 castings , the only GT35 turbine housings I've ever seen were diesel spec ones and they were probably GT40 housings with enough meat to take the smaller 35 wheel . Bitzer - GT3540 .

A .

I recall there was a R33 time attack car that made a change to the 1.06 housing, still on RB25. Can't recall whose thread it is in.

I agree the GT30 1.06 IW combination should do the job on a RB30. Wanted to go down that line with mine. Cost and availability of housings at the time weren't good and other demands of practicality/service dictated that the solution was high mount/external gate and stealth wasn't part of the mix - easy spanner checking of fasteners and easy removal of components was far more important.

With a few horror stories of the GT3582 failing on high boost setups, I think I'd steer to something else if chasing 500rwhp.

Enter the GTX3576 on E85 and GTX3582..... :whistling:

Gregs one did ok on his RB28, my old flogged GTX3076 managed 380kw on his auto with a stock engine bay, externally gated .82 Kando housing. Surely there is an easy 450kw in it with the right setup (1.06 rear) in a manual.

I think with the larger housing it would be perfect for a 30.

That's weird eh - then you have 34GeeTeeTee burning around every track day he can with an HTA3076 making 500+whp and not exactly holding back with no issues :wub:

EFR all the things :)

All the track days :woot:

Mmm, I've done 6 track days with my Garret pushing 40psi up the straight... Why not flog a turbo hard?

Perhaps we shouldn't be running turbo's at all, I mean it's just another part to fail right?

One of the Ford boys on Xr6turbo made just under 450rwks with an internal gated GTX3576 (1.06) through a ZF on E85 with just a tune, injectors, cooler and exhaust so the compressor is able to flow that sort of power.

    • I'm looking for some real world experiences/feed back from anyone who has personally ran a EFR7670 with a 1.05 exhaust housing or a .83 I'm leaning towards the .83 because its a street car used mostly for spirited driving in the canyons roads. I"m not looking for big numbers on paper. I want a responsive powerband that will be very linear to 8000 rpm. I dont mind if power remains somewhat flat but dont want power to drop off on top. The turbo I've purchased is a 1.05, although the mounting flange T3 vs T4 and internal vs external waste gates are different on both housings, I not concern about swapping parts or making fabrication mods to get what I want. Based on some of the research I've done with chat gpt, the 1.05 housing seems to be the way to go with slightly more lag and future proofing for more mods but recommends .83 for best response/street car setup. AI doesn't have the same emotions as real people driving a GTR so I think you guys will be able to give me better feed back 😀   
    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
    • This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?
    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
    • OK, onto filling. So I don't really have any pics, but will describe the process as best I can. The USDM workshop manual also covers it from TM-285 onwards. First, make sure the drain plug (17mm) is snug. Not too tight yet because it is coming off again. Note it does have a copper washer that you could replace or anneal (heat up with a blow torch) to seal nicely. Remove the fill plug, which has an inhex (I think it was 6mm but didn't check). Then, screw in the fill fitting, making sure it has a suitable o-ring (mine came without but I think it is meant to be supplied). It is important that you only screw it in hand tight. I didn't get a good pic of it, but the fill plug leads to a tube about 70mm long inside the transmission. This sets the factory level for fluid in the trans (above the join line for the pan!) and will take about 3l to fill. You then need to connect your fluid pump to the fitting via a hose, and pump in whatever amount of fluid you removed (maybe 3 litres, in my case 7 litres). If you put in more than 3l, it will spill out when you remove the fitting, so do quickly and with a drain pan underneath. Once you have pumped in the required amount of clean ATF, you start the engine and run it for 3 minutes to let the fluid circulate. Don't run it longer and if possible check the fluid temp is under 40oC (Ecutek shows Auto Trans Fluid temp now, or you could use an infrared temp gun on the bottom of the pan). The manual stresses the bit about fluid temperature because it expands when hot an might result in an underfil. So from here, the factory manual says to do the "spill and fill" again, and I did. That is, put an oil pan under the drain plug and undo it with a 17mm spanner, then watch your expensive fluid fall back out again, you should get about 3 litres.  Then, put the drain plug back in, pump 3 litres back in through the fill plug with the fitting and pump, disconnect the fill fitting and replace the fill plug, start the car and run for another 3 minutes (making sure the temp is still under 40oC). The manual then asks for a 3rd "spill and fill" just like above. I also did that and so had put 13l in by now.  This time they want you to keep the engine running and run the transmission through R and D (I hope the wheels are still off the ground!) for a while, and allow the trans temp to get to 40oC, then engine off. Finally, back under the car and undo the fill plug to let the overfill drain out; it will stop running when fluid is at the top of the levelling tube. According to the factory, that is job done! Post that, I reconnected the fill fitting and pumped in an extra 0.5l. AMS says 1.5l overfill is safe, but I started with less to see how it goes, I will add another 1.0 litres later if I'm still not happy with the hot shifts.
