I was reading the T04R turbo string and noticed a bit of interest in the T04Z Version .

From HKS the Z version is as follows .

Comp 84mm 63T in .70ARR housing .

Turb 74.2mm 76T in .61/.81/1.00 ARR housing

Claimed power is 700 Hp or PS .

I think SK once said the Garrett GT3540R was good for around the same power so its interesting to note the differences .

The T04Z uses an 84mm 63 trim comp where the GT40 side of the 3540R is 82mm 56 trim . The OD is not much different but the trim jump from 56 to 63 is pretty big and if the aero development is better the pumping efficiency could be as good or better .

The turbine has gone up in size from 68mm (GT35) to 74.2mm but the trim has dropped from 84 to 76 .

Its interesting to note that the wheel diametres make it like a scaled up 2530 and in the same trims too , 63 and 76 . The ratio of turbine to compressor major diametres are very similar as well at 88.3 and 89.6% .

If Garrett have managed to develop highly efficient wheels and kept the innertia down this should be a good thing - I wanna to see the map too !

Cheers A .

Awesome! Cheers for the information, me and some friends have been discussing the T04Z lately. I was just today trying to find out if anyone anywhere had compressor maps for them - partly because the most recent HPI to hit NZ shores (GTR-Special) had an R32 GT-R with twin T04Zs on it.... what a fascinating combination!! :)

In light of what you say about it compared to a GT2530 - it'd be interesting to compare compressor maps, if the "shape" were similar. I had noticed that someone had compared the boost threshold with twin GT2530s...

I have done some searching but can't confirm if the wheels and trims are the same for the Garrett and HKS versions . I did follow a link to an E Bay Ad and it shows the cartridge ID tag but light too bright to read the numbers .

HKS have obviously had their comp cover cast up so there may be differences other than the drilled snout air inlet . I'd like to see the cap screws and snout removed though the internal passages are probably not difficult to re create .

None of the pics I've seen show the exhaust housing so I don't know if it's a special as well .

Since the T04R's have been around for a while there must be some exhaust manifolds for the RB26 , would these be only tubular and hi mount ? In a perfect world cast iron and low mount may be more practical if such a turbo could fit down low in a Skylines engine bay .

Lots of pics of Z's and their manifolds please and the ID tag numbers if possible .

Cheers Adrian .

ok heres what a HKS t04z 0.81 housing says on the id tag..

Model: T04Z

OEM P/N: G1 7202-K0001 0

S/N: IF 0227J

P/N: 740759-5002

the hks version has the split exhuast housing to match the split trust manifold too, but im 99% sure the garrett version isnt a split design.

hope it helps

Brad

The Garrett T04Z also has the split design. I post up pictures tomorrow morning of the ID tag & the rest of it - It's off the car anyway so its easy.

Thanks guys good info . I have seen some pics of a version that may have a 7 blade compressor (well 7 full height and 7 splitter blades you'll know what i mean) so something to avoid .

One of the sites mention a twin entry or split pulsed exhaust housing with a twin integral wastegate set up which could be handy if the turbine inlet pressures are not too high .

StageZilla it would be VERY interesting to see the comp cover with the inlet snout unbolted to let on how they did the anti reversion holes/groove . Actually to see it in its raw glory ie housings removed would make the net zing ! Also has your's got HKS cast into the exhaust housing indicating a non Garrett special ?

Cheers A .

HKS had a press release available which showed CAD drawings of the comp cover and its insert. Think of a ported shroud Garrett GT30R cover with an insert over the air gap around the anti-surge ring, and the drilled holes provide air entry/escape to it.

well i can pull it apart easy enough but how tight do i do the bolts back up? last thing i want is to f**k it up :P

yes mine has the hks cast into the exhuast housing, and 6 blade compressor :)

107_0734.jpg

107_0735.jpg

this one is next to my stock gtr turbo :P

107_0720.jpg

worst thing with this turbo is having to buy the HKS v band flange and clamp for the exhuast which is another $260 from Nengun.

Hi StageZilla , I've only ever used ring/open ended spanniards for turbo housing bolts and never stripped or had any come loose . When brand spankers everything's clean particularly on the turbine side so no persuasuon is needed to remove its housing . Turbos are not short of clamping area so their fasteners don't need to be ridiculously tight especially on the compressor side (aluminium) . Most custom installations need them to be backed off enough to index the housings in relation to the core - the yanks call it clocking .

The greatest danger is dropping the cartridge and bending the blades so this is a pre JD operation and need something soft to lay it on .

Thanks for those pics , the things not as huge as I thought in relation to a standard GTR T28 . A T3 rather than T4 flange on the exhaust housing would have made it more compact again though HKS probably intend it to be an upgrade to to the T04R .

Thanks heaps cheers Adrian .

no worries adrian,

also hp ratings are 700hp i think for the 0.81 and 800hp for the largest housing, 1.0

i want response, so thats the reason i chose this over a hks t51R or gt42 garret.

ill have some figures in a few months when the build is finished :(

Thank you also WetGTR , any chance of seeing the compressor and turbine wheels side on .

From the cartridge number (740759-5002) both Garrett and HKS should be the same .

Cheers Adrian .

surely the garrett and hks versions are not 100% exactly the same, could be same measurements on the trims etc, but totally different wheel designs or whatever?

and as ive heard from people comparing garrett with hks turbos, is the hks ones will keep on pumping more hp at high boost, where as the garrett stuff runs outta puff at high boost levels and flattens off.

only time will tell :D

Same CHRA different housings.

Garrett "talk" says same core, turbine and compressor. Very minor changes in the housings to justify the inflated HKS price. No real world differences. That may just be the Garrett line, but I haven't seen anything to doubt it so far.

What are you guys paying for T04Z's? The going rate for the HKS T04Z seems to be around $3K and Garrett is around $2.2K

:D cheers :D

    • Power is fed to the ECU when the ignition switch is switched to IGN, at terminal 58. That same wire also connects to the ECCS relay to provide both the coil power and the contact side. When the ECU sees power at 58 it switches 16 to earth, which pulls the ECCS relay on, which feeds main power into the ECU and also to a bunch of other things. None of this is directly involved in the fuel pump - it just has to happen first. The ECU will pull terminal 18 to earth when it wants the fuel pump to run. This allows the fuel pump relay to pull in, which switches power on into the rest of the fuel pump control equipment. The fuel pump control regulator is controlled from terminal 104 on the ECU and is switched high or low depending on whether the ECU thinks the pump needs to run high or low. (I don't know which way around that is, and it really doesn't matter right now). The fuel pump control reg is really just a resistor that controls how the power through the pump goes to earth. Either straight to earth, or via the resistor. This part doesn't matter much to us today. The power to the fuel pump relay comes from one of the switched wires from the IGN switch and fusebox that is not shown off to the left of this page. That power runs the fuel pump relay coil and a number of other engine peripherals. Those peripherals don't really matter. All that matters is that there should be power available at the relay when the key is in the right position. At least - I think it's switched. If it's not switched, then power will be there all the time. Either way, if you don't have power there when you need it (ie, key on) then it won't work. The input-output switching side of the relay gains its power from a line similar (but not the same as) the one that feeds the ECU. SO I presume that is switched. Again, if there is not power there when you need it, then you have to look upstream. And... the upshot of all that? There is no "ground" at the fuel pump relay. Where you say: and say that pin 1 Black/Pink is ground, that is not true. The ECU trigger is AF73, is black/pink, and is the "ground". When the ECU says it is. The Blue/White wire is the "constant" 12V to power the relay's coil. And when I say "constant", I mean it may well only be on when the key is on. As I said above. So, when the ECU says not to be running the pump (which is any time after about 3s of switching on, with no crank signal or engine speed yet), then you should see 12V at both 1 and 2. Because the 12V will be all the way up to the ECU terminal 18, waiting to be switched to ground. When the ECU switches the fuel pump on, then AF73 should go to ~0V, having been switched to ground and the voltage drop now occurring over the relay coil. 3 & 5 are easy. 5 is the other "constant" 12V, that may or may not be constant but will very much want to be there when the key is on. Same as above. 3 goes to the pump. There should never be 12V visible at 3 unless the relay is pulled in. As to where the immobiliser might have been spliced into all this.... It will either have to be on wire AF70 or AF71, whichever is most accessible near the alarm. Given that all those wires run from the engine bay fusebox or the ECU, via the driver's area to the rear of the car, it could really be either. AF70 will be the same colour from the appropriate fuse all the way to the pump. If it has been cut and is dangling, you should be able to see that  in that area somewhere. Same with AF71.   You really should be able to force the pump to run. Just jump 12V onto AF72 and it should go. That will prove that the pump itself is willing to go along with you when you sort out the upstream. You really should be able to force the fuel pump relay on. Just short AF73 to earth when the key is on. If the pump runs, then the relay is fine, and all the power up to both inputs on the relay is fine. If it doesn't run (and given that you checked the relay itself actually works) then one or both of AF70 and AF71 are not bringing power to the game.
    • @PranK can you elaborate further on the Colorlock Dye? The website has a lot of options. I'm sure you've done all the research. I have old genuine leather seats that I have bought various refurbing creams and such, but never a dye. Any info on how long it lasts? Does it wash out? Is it a hassle? What product do I actually need? Am I just buying this kit and following the steps the page advises or something else? https://www.colourlockaustralia.com.au/colourlock-leather-repair-kit-dye.html
    • These going to fit over the big brakes? I'd be reeeeeeeeaaaall hesitant to believe so.
    • The leather work properly stunned me. Again, I am thankful that the leather was in such good condition. I'm not sure what the indent is at the top of the passenger seat. Like somebody was sitting in it with a golf ball between their shoulders. The wheels are more grey than silver now and missing a lot of gloss.  Here's one with nice silver wheels.
    • It's amazing how well the works on the leather seats. Looks mint. Looking forward to see how you go with the wheels. They do suit the car! Gutter rash is easy to fix, but I'm curious about getting the colour done.
