Yes, Discopotato, you are right. Later I thought my comment didn't read well.

I asked whether the GT30 housing came as an unmachined or semi-finished blank that required finishing before fitting up. If that were the case (and doesn't seem to be), then the possibility could exist.

How then, does Garrett get the 56.5mm wheel mated up to the internally gated housing that they call a GT30 that is evidently very different to the externally gated GT3076 with its 60mm wheel? I say "evidently very different" because of their vastly differing flow/efficiency maps and the obvious different method of turbine speed control.

Do they both fall within the UHP family, and where is the information about that and NSIII?

Hopefully I will get it soon...

BTW I am going to kick off a thread about interpreting turbine maps just to keep the brain ticking over.

cheers

The GT30 and GT28 exhaust housings are very different internally both being based around their native turbine major diameters ie 60 and 54mm . They modified or cropped the 60mm to the maximum size that would fit in an overboared GT28 housing and came up with 56.6mm . The Hub is too big and heavy for the shortened blades and the blade form is not the best in shortened form . The GT28 nozzle form was designed for GT28 turbines and so not optimised for the diametre of the hybrid . Turbine efficiency suffers and shows up as lag .

Great result quincy777, and right on target.

Couple of things I would like comment on if possible:

what sort of flange adaptor did you fabricate, and how did the turbo - suspension tower clearance work out?

what did you do for a suitable dump pipe

what is the boost threshold point (ie when does it go from vacuum to pressure)

how quickly does it build boost (once on boost)? Looking for comment about whether the power is controllable

cheers

Nice results for the 3071. When do you get full boost? Is it internally gated? Like the 3071-WG on atpturbo.com?

I get a bar of boost by 4rpm, internally gated and on standard manifold. Bought it from horsepower in a box. Lot's of fiddling and adapting with flanges, lines and crap but seems a great option..

I am planning to run one of these once I put some money aside (currently doing some serious body work!). From what Ive read around the place the GT3071R has almost the same spec front wheel/housing as the HKS GT2835ProS turbo. The main difference with the current breed of GT3071R is that theyre very common with a T25 Int Gate rear housing. Its been discussed around the place that getting the GT3071 with a 90 trim exhaust wheel and a HKS T3 .73 a/r exh housing is the way to go, as Garrett only offer a .6x and a .8x size in T3.

Housings are only USD$300 from HKS direct.

I've been thinking of putting a Garrett GT3071R on my RB20, do the RB20 manifold take T3 then?

Is this the turbo you lot are talking about? http://www.atpturbo.com/Merchant2/merchant...tegory_Code=GRT

was going to order it with 3in outlet ect.

But didn't know what you guys would surgest for A/R, i think i got the undertstanding that .82 is the one to go for?

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
