gtst25,

one thing i didnt get in my kit, either that or its not meant to be included, was a gasket of any kind for the exhaust turbine housing/dump pipe flange? there is a groove in the exhaust housing so we made up some copper wire to fit exactly as pictured... it probably doesnt need anything, but i didnt want to have to pull it off again incase there was a leak.

No gasket in my kit either. The copper wire looks good though - would squash down nicely and heat wouldn't bother it. What does everyone else do?

I'll get dad to take some more photos of the turbine wheel bare and some measurements.

Thank you very much great feed back . Pics of the turbine end on and from the side would be great .

While I'm here the numbers on the ID plate would be interesting , my list shows the cartridge or CHRA number as 700177-0003 for th 84 trim turbine and 56 trim compressor . The turbine should merasure 51.6 by 56.6mm (84T) and 53.6 by 56.6mm for 90 trim .

A couple of things to note , HUGE vent for the waste gate (2835) and the model specific outlet flange pattern on the HKS 2530 to suit the RB20/25 dump pipe .

The thing I'm really curious to know is if the HKS GT3037 Pro S has a divider between the turbine outlet and the waste gate vent hole as the turbine outlet is larger again and there's not much meat with the 2835 housing .

Cheers and thanks A .

3037ProS is an external gate only isnt it?

It'd have to have a divider between the turbine exit and wastegate - hell if it didn't you wouldn't have to bother with a split dump pipe - the gasses'd be mixing before they get there. Maybe they can move the wastegate over a bit away from the turbine but if they did that it'd still be a big job to get the housing looking right??

How much larger is the 3037 than the 2835?

hey sly33, has the problem been solved about the gt2835 pro s when it is boosted to 20psi then drops down to 18psi....?

ive noticed a few people saying thats when it boost's to 20 or above it always drops down to 17-18 , i was wondering if it had anything to do with the internal wastegate...?

ID plate numbers:

IA 0156J

GT2835-56T

100177-5003

Turbine dia: 51.17mm top, 56.5 bottom

wastegate dia 35mm

inlet compressor 100mm

outlet compressor 50mm

It's amasing how small the thing is - it must spin like crazy. The turbos on the boat I work on spin @ 56000 rpm - 2070KW per engine. That's nearly 1000 times a second - pretty hard to imagine hey?

The inside of the turbine housing?

Does it have daggy cast marks etc or does it look as if its been cleaned up or possibly really good castings?

I've seen garret items that look pretty messy inside. Bolts poking through in to the comps airflow stream etc.

I'll get dad to have a look when it comes back from ceamic coating.

I don't think he wants to take the compressor cover off - if he dropped or bumped the wheel the wrong way my new turbo would probably go out of balance.

probably upwards of 120,000rpm.

more to the tune of 150,000rpm+

I see the Bandag bullet's turbos goto 180000rpm.

On our MTU's we've got turbo rev counters - must have a magnetised part of the compressor wheel and a sensor bolts into the compressor housing. They run 3.6 bar boost press @ full noise.

Mario dont tell me your getting this turbo ?? haha

Heard you were going for some Apexi item ????

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
