Hey everybody, I have a garrett 3076 external wastegate version ( not sure on the a/r) and was wondering where I can purchase a different rear housing? Im wanting to go to a internal wastegate.. I've heard this is possible, please correct me if I'm wrong. Bit of a noob when it comes to turbos.

Thanks for any help in advance.

We can machine you a IWG .82 rear housing that has a 6 bolt Nissan pattern on the rear, with actuator with bracket supplied, plus the exhaust manifold spacer. In total you will be looking to spend $600.

I should probably give a bit more info.

I recently purchased a GTT which came with a - but not installed - HKS 3037 external wastegate version (56 trim?). Which apparently is exactly the same as a Garrett 3076R. Also got a Trust exhaust manifold for an external gate setup.

So far from the research I've done, it would be simpler and cheaper just to stay with an internal gate system, which is the reason for my original question.

Or would I be better off going the external gate route.?

Yes I realize what I have already been told. But about which route I should take is where I'm not sure on. I've read that an internal gate can be restrictive on how much boost can be run and that a .82 internal gate housing will spool slower than if it was an external gate setup instead.. Is this true? Im looking for a fun street use setup that will go well on the track aswell. And money isnt the biggest issue.

hks 3037 had the cropped turbine wheel iirc

so a standard gt30 rear end won't work

So using Bens rear housing won't work, I take it this won't work either?

Would the hypergear one work or would I better off just using what I have and going the external gate route?

That's what I have.

Hypergear should be able to machine a hkusing to suit your turbo.

Okay so I'll keep that in mind that I'll be looking at about $600 for an internal gate rear housing.

Now, what I'd also like to know, seeing as I already have the manifold for it, what are the pros and cons of internal vs external gate in this particular set up? Besides the fact I'll need to buy an external gate and the fab work.
Can one handle more boost than the other? Or is one laggier than the other?

Sell hks turbo complete buy bens gt3076r. Hks gt3037 has a cropped exhaust wheel as stated above. Same as the gt2835.

That's genius!

If you were considering a housing for 600 a whole turbo for 1250 makes sense. Approx 500o k's use and includes dump pipe.

I was seriously considering it but im going a high mount ext gate as I think itll match the plazmaman plenum better I think. But op should def buy and sell the hks. Wont lose money as the hks 3037's still get $1000+ mark.

No, they are just saying that the HKS turbos used a cropped wheel. So the 2835 is a cropped 3071, the 3037 i believe is a cropped 3076

HKS 3037 and 2835 are two completely different turbos, the 3037 will deliver more power with more lag.

      I drive the Tiguan much harder than the Skyline in all conditions, because it just grips and hooks, unlike the R33 shit box

      The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.

      When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.

      Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.

      This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
