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.

      Impossible to remove the housing while turbo is installed on the manifold on the engine. So I have to do it anyways. I plugged it so there will not be any debris in there. Will vacuum aswell

      gtr hood match gt/gtt front fenders?

      By JC71 · Posted

      would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)

      You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
