Which turbo's are you guys running on your sr20det's? 

Im looking at the:

-GARRETT GT2871R (0,64AR) - $1350
-GARRETT GT2560R - $1050
-GARRETT GBC22-350 - $850

 

Im curious about the GBC22-350, anyone tried it? 

I currently have a built sr20det (top (cams, springs, solid lifters etc) and bottom(rods, pistions, coated bearings, headgasket and main/head studs)) but dont wanna run any crazy numbers, only safe numbers to get the car running again.
I also dont wanna break the gearbox since i will be running the standard gearbox (5speed).

Get a GTX2860R Gen 2, it will do about 250~260kW and come all close to the side of 3000rpm on E85.

Looks great! Sounds great aswell.

 

maybe the gt2871 is the way to go then.

the GTX2860R is a bit pricey

GT2871 is so old, it's not 2003 anymore.

True. But does it matter if its a good turbo? 

gbc220-350 is a newer model, but dont know really mich about them. Tried to catch someone who runs it on a sr20

Like I said earlier, it's smaller than stock. You can just look at the numbers and compressor map to know this. Technically the turbine will flow more due to higher trim but the compressor flows less air at the same pressure ratios.

Subjective, I think it's a terrible turbo when compared to today's modern offerings.

Only thing "good" about it, is that it doses very well. You get a nice suuuuuututututut lol

I am now running a Aeroflow 5047 .64 rear (gtx gen2 2867 specs)

Previously ran a garret gtx gen2 2867 .82 rear

The .64 is the way to go as a lot more responsive.

I also run a stock 5 speed but its struggling and eating syncro's.
Car makes 220-270kw pending boost level.

ok then Got offered 

 

GTX2860 or GTX2867.

can get a good deal on the GTX2860R.

shall i go for that then

Gtx2867 

If decide to go for more power will be ready to go for around 270-280kw and be super responsive.

Whats the minimum power you think you can run on that without promblems like surge etc

Surge from what? Fuel?

The GTx2867 Will probably be alot more expensive. 

If money is an issue look at other brands like mamba, pulsar, Aeroflow

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
