Bump

Or if someone has a GT3076 T3 rear housing for sale fairly cheap that will also help me a bit as i can buy the turbo from GCG at a pretty good price, but the rear housing is an additional $500+..

G'Day guys, im after a GT3076R or GT3071R turbo, in good condition, preferably with .63 rear housing. Contact on here or SMS 0408 117 171. cheers, Daniel.

Bump! dont care how rough the shell is, ill still look at it

lol ive said this quite a few times now... it has had a really large rear housing put on it...the original that came with the turbo is internally gated, and yes HKS take garrett turbos and modify them it has garrett all over it, and HKS cast into the compressor housing. Attached is a photo of the 2530 next to my GT3582R, which i swapped over tonight...As you can see the rear housing of the 2530 is much larger than that of the gt35R...which would be why the GT3582R spools up at the same time (4500) lol.. I have no doubt in my mind if i put the .63 rear housing back on the 2530 it would give me much earlier spool up, but that will not help me much at all.

Yeah your car sounds mental, i miss my screamer i plumbed it back for daily driving reasons lol.

Yeah a mate of mine has one on his 1JZ, hits 16psi before 3k and pulls like a mule till 8, and they sound awesome on spoolup

I no longer need fat wheels as i have already bought some Still after a GT3076, will save me waiting for postage from USA

lol my mind has been made up, this thread was started to sell or swap my turbo, not to start a big debate on which turbo i want.

Yeah i have a nistune on order, i have many reasons to upgrade to a GT3076 lol, the std ecu idles and cruises at 14.7:1 AFRs +/- .2 and holds a consistant 12:1 under boost so im not worried about my engine, lol. The biggest reason i have for upgrading from the 2530 is that im already at the limit of the smaller turbo, i can feel it drop off at around 7200rpm at 16psi, which i never had with the turbo i had before that (eBay spec T3/T04E), which i would expect given the small front wheel and housing these turbos have. So naturally when i get the nistune and get it tuned for over 20PSI im going to have all sorts of issues high in the revs with this turbo.

its an unopened std ecu lol.

ah geez mines alot snappier than that, wheelspin is a major issue in 2nd let alone 1st on street tires, i have uploaded a video to show just how the turbo performs on a std RB20, after the wheelspin in 1st gear its wide open from 4k and then wide open from 4k in 2nd before more wheelspin. http://s162.photobuc...05052011019.mp4 If someone has a GT30 they want to sell let me know, ill pay cash, i also have a complete 1JZ setup i would swap..

na i havent tried the IW housing as i would have to cut up another dump pipe just to try it, what size rear housing did you have ? the one on mine is about as fat as the rear housing on my GT35R lol.. I know of a fella running the GT3076 and he had a housing that was A/R 1.06 or there abouts and he then changed to a .63 and said it started spooling by 2200.. And have seen others with slightly laggier results.. If i could get 20psi by 4-5 with the 3076 i would be happy. Edit: For anyone interested, this is the turbo's resale value: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/HKS-Turbo-GT2530-RECONDITIONED-S13-S14-S15-Siliva-200sx-/230616218702?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item35b1cc3c4e

Hey guys, No longer need my GTR wheel as i have a Drift Suede steering wheel now. Overall in good condition has a few little scuffs and one seam has shrunk a little (as pictured). Has GTR horn button also. $110 ono may swap. Photos below (is a bit dusty). Contact on here or SMS on 0408 117 171 Cheers, Daniel.

Some pics from just before it went on the car and some pics taken tonight.

Yea it will bud cause ill be running a .63 rear housing on the GT30, and i know for a fact that setup will build decent boost sooner than 4500 lol, i could buy a smaller housing for the 2530 but im looking to up the boost a fair bit more than 16psi later on so with the 3076 i will be able to do that .

Thanks bud, yeah once 16psi is on, its on! but i dont do any track racing, only the drags which requires super response for launching, but its mostly my daily.

Hi guys, Have recently bought a rebuilt HKS GT2530 for my R32 but im not happy with the lag its got, as im after really good response and im leaning more towards a GT3076R with a .63 rear housing so if anyone has one they would swap with cash adjustment if necessary or sell me i am very keen. Also if someone can come up with $1200 i will sell the 2530, it comes with the standard .63 internally gated rear housing and also the V Band externally gated housing on it (unsure of size, probably A/R 1.xx something), it has a 2.5" inlet and uses the standard 3 bolt rb20 hotside pipe, Also have a 3" stainless dump to use with the internally gated rear housing or a mild steel 3" dump for the V Band housing both on the standard manifold so it is a direct drop in for an rb20 or rb25. The turbo is currently on the car and can be inspected and/or taken for a drive in the car. Can get pictures on request also, Contact me on here or SMS on 0408 117 171 for a quicker response. Cheers, Daniel.

I have done this myself and it turned out pretty well, it does weaken the bonnet if you dont weld in a plate to fill up the hole but it hasnt caused me any problems yet. the key is to just print out some photos of GTR bonnets and make sure you mark out and cut the bonnet in the right spot with the right curve, i used masking tape as a guide to cut to, but no matter what happens the paint will melt and you will need to repaint the bonnet or touch up the lip. Attached is a photo of it off the car after i cut it and sanded the melted paint back, and one after i painted the bonnet. The trick is to measure twice, cut once! Cheers, Daniel.

Bump, looking to spend around 1500 now
