Confirmed. Turbo core is rattly and on its way out. $1700 to rebuild.

Do I go with rebuilding it or would a 3071 be better with less lag?

For $1700, what do I do people? :P

mate, now that I've returned the R back to stock, I've got a spare one you can have.

just harden up & do it!

who is that with Roo

f**k 1700? a guy in melb hiflows for 800? You can get more power out of a 3071r :) but do you wanna upgrade injectors, fuel pressure reg, fuel pump, z32afm, etc etc?

with any turbo upgrade those parts will need upgrading to make full potential of new turbo

bah, rebuild/hi flow a vg30 rubes, keep the popo happy and still makes Very good power.

atleast speaking from my experience anyway

fixed

ring Bill Keen from ATS even if its just to pick his brain he built my high flow and its awesome he also built 180or200's aka Adrian and his flows good too

Ask me and a friend to come party with them in Las vegas in May. then stay with them in LA where they live. show us around etc.

My answer was yes. :)

Ruby my mate has a Garret 3071 for sale, rb housing, lines, done 3000k's, made 280rwkw on his 34. Price ~$2200

Croydon Racing Developments are doing them for $1450 new. :)

Who was selling an Apexi turbo recently ... Rad32?

The 3071 seems to be the one to go for.

Pretty heavy band. 'as blood runs black'

Think I wrote something in wasteland awhile back about them. when I was a tad wasted myself.

usually into electronic stuff. But I can appreciate good music.

Roo. thought you wanted to keep everything stock. So you dont get into the defect crowd :)

You thought about ECU aswell ? If you wanna run higher boost etc.

Id prolly high flow it myself.

    • I'm still not sure what you are trying to acheive, but I wanted to clarify something about Lithium's response to your question...   Only within certain limits. All of the examples Lithium gave were of detuning for a particular reason. Before the engine/turbo/wastegate combination has hit full boost, you can't increase it....the wastegate is shut and the turbo is pushing as hard as it can Once the combination has hit the target (controlled) boost, you generally have full control over whether it makes more or less boost, because it is being limited/reduced from its potential. This is generally done by controlling the wastegate In the top end, with an undersized turbo, it is possible you won't get to your target boost anymore if the turbo is choking up. In this case you cannot increase boost any more without changing the setup. No change in cost compared to any decent build, other than tuning time to get the engine to make less power than it is able to at a certain point
    • Welcome.  Glad to hear that you have gained some knowledge that has helped you. I believe the only fix for the power steer belt is an electric conversion with a Holden astra pump. If you get a chance, post pics of your car, please. 🙂
    • Just ordered those bosses, hopefully that does the trick thank you very much everyone for your replies it's really appreciated  
    • to have this type of adjustment possible with a curve as I wish, what budget (engine) should be planned?  
    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now.
