i will happily post dyno charts, getting it re tuned very soon with cam gears, so expect less peak power and more midrange as that is what im after since its a drift car. My tuner and the workshoo which has the dyno is extremely reputable in Adelaide, with what is regarded as the most accurate (read, not happy) dyno in the state.

in no way are figures fudged, and the fact is im not even after peak power... my tuner has the whole time been trying to gain more midrange torque (which was also the idea of cams.. but that was a slight step backwards with stock gears)

in my opinion... the 3071R does everything the 3076 r does.. but spools earlier.ll... it is the best all round turbo. for me it was never about the numbers. but rather the response and torque

Well i'm still doing research still and i guess from what you guys telling i gotta rule out GT2871R.

i mean i'm after both response and torque as well but yet still trying to achieve that power range.

Anyway still left on the priority is the Turbonetics T62-1 Ceramic Ball bearing rated at 600HP with .63 housing. follow by the GT3071R and the GT3582R which i'm quite concern that it will be very laggy.

If only we have a few people running the the T62-1 from Turbonetics with similar mods to mine would be awsome to see the result.

though i might ended up testing it out anyway as it sounded quite promising yet more research for me.

The reason i'm aiming for that figures is that i'm still running on stock bottom end and i believe that's the safe figures i can push it to for the R33.

I think the GT3582R would offers that power but don't you think with my 2mm head gasket it would be pretty damn laggy?

your miss informed if you think your bottom end will be safe at 300 - 330kws

mine on a good tune broke ringlands at 265kws with the 3071.

on a motor that only had 35k klms .

so what makes you think your motor is any better?

bolt the gt3582 on and when the bottom end lets go then you can change head gasketsto something more sensible

simon, i was trying to point out some people make the upper range of the turbo's capability and others make a lower range be it due to skill and care with setup or luck of the draw (with hardware).

great job so far by you and your workshop.

    • Yes. Probably, given that there is only access from the bottom end of it, go with a drill bit. Don't start too small. 7 or 8mm is probably the right size. You want something that can make a big enough hole to do some damage, but not so bit that it clashes with the steel or binds up and breaks your wrist. A slow speed is probably a good idea too. Once the rubber is destroyed, you then have to get the crush tube off the stud, which will be the whole heat/oil/cutting exercise all over again, but this time with the need to strictly avoid damaging the stud (any further than the corrosion might already have done.
    • We replaced the connector just because we could and it was still there, once we swapped the injectors around it stopped. The injectors were something I had thoughts of replacing even before I first started the engine and in hindsight I should have 
    • Not too sure just yet, want to have a go at doing what I can myself, but to start with want someone to cast their eye over it tell me what needs doing to get it running and back on the road, so anyone with great overall knowledge would be ideal.
    • I personally would go with cutting out the rubber. Then deal with getting sleeve off separately. Rubber can be painful to cut, it loves to jam up cutting tools. I normally have success with drill bits, deburr bits, angle grinders, jigsaw, reciprocating saw, and never forget... fire. Obviously different tools won't work in all locations you're trying to work with, and you need to be comfortable with each. You personally may be happy slowly slicing it out with a razor blade, if you are, go for it with one too! Feel free to wait for others to weigh in also on their thoughts.
    • So ... I got everything disconnected and started dropping the frame. Three of the four mounts started to come down but the fourth one (the one with the nut that gave me all the trouble) won't budge. The inner metal sleeve stays up tight against the chassis rail although the outer part of the mount drops a bit (and can be levered quite a lot more) but it's just stretching the rubber bushing. So I reckon there's some serious corrosion inside the inner sleeve and holding it tight to the lug at the top of the bolt. Tried everything I can think of so far: penetrating oil, whacking the top of the sleeve to vibrate it and wedge a screwdriver blade in there. I also tried to turn the inner sleeve a bit by hitting it with a chisel at the bottom. It's stuck solid. What do you think about cutting the rubber with a blade so I can drop the subframe around it anyway. Then worry about getting the inner sleeve off after? Will that work? Is it gonna give me even more problems?
