hey guys

just wondering has anyone tried/used the gt3582r on there rb25?

im looking at upgrading my turbo, at the moment im running a kkr480 with 50mm ext gate on 18psi making 240rwkw ran 115mph.

has anyone had issues with the gt3582r internal gate? can they hold boost etc

would it be a worthy upgrade or not worth it? want something with more punch!

get a 3076, more power, about the same response as the KKR junk :P

hey im chasing more mid range torque plus ya top end power, my kkr i make 1.4bar at about 4800rpm, i want it at 3800rpm if possible. but with the same torque. til redline.

would 3076 make 250rwkw on 14psi? so 18psi could i push 280rwkw and 120mph+?

do they make 3076 internally gated? do they hold boost or creep?

im not really into the mood of hacking into another exhaust housing and gettin a 50mm ext gate welded on again! its why im considering iternal gate

i have an internal gate 3076, it holds boost fine if you make the dump properly. i'm making 250rwkw at 17psi. all in around 3900 on the road. if i was going to do it again i'd go external from the start

oh ok thanks 4 that. see no point upgrading if im only gonna gain 10kw at same boost level, not worth the 2.5g to do it!

i kinda want a turbo that makes 250rwkw at 1bar and perhaps 280-300 at 1.3bar-1.4bar

i had one if not the first 3582r-iw sold in Aus, mounted on my 25

it started out low mounted and then high mounted on a etm manifold, and i loved it.

my car was running a built r33 auto with highstall.

the turbo had a 18 psi actuator with a .82 rear and would see 20 psi between 4000 - 4200rpm

going up a lg hill in overdrive ive seen 5 psi at 2500 rpm, Laggy i think not.

in my eyes this is the same boost response to the 3076, yet the potential for future power is allways there.

i have since sold this turbo and manifold to another SAU member and he with a manual and e85 has produced 380 rwkws,

on a stock motor with lg injectors at around 23 psi.

i think they are the one of best suited turbo to the rb25 you can get.

a wise man "nismoid" once said, a poor man pays twice

so why choose a 3076 to get the same response and less power?

you then want more power so you sell it and get a 3582.

get a 3582 to begin with and do the job once.

as far as internal gate's go above 20 psi,

the 3582r-iw with .82 rear has no boost control issues that i have found when set up correctly.

thanks dangerman! well this is the turbo im really looking at going 2!

i only wanna run around 1.3bar because motor is still stock, motor has run 1.3bar for 2yrs nearly now and no signs of giving in yet lol

where is the best place 2 start looking? price wise etc.

Two things:

1) If you aren't going to get >250rwkw on a GT3076R, then you won't on a GT3582R either - both can flow that power level at that boost level without an issue.

2) A .82a/r GT3582R feels WAY spongier "around town" driving than a GT3076R, saying they respond/drive the same as a GT3076R is ridiculous.

Agreed fully with Nismoid, recommending a .82 GT35R over a GT3076R is basically saying "Why get 280-300rwkw with good response when you can spend the same and make 280-300rwkw with more lag??" There is a dude on here who has cracked 350rwkw with a .68a/r GT30R running E85 on his RB25DET. GT30R ftw.

im assuming you have a 3076 dyno print out to compare to mine?

or is all that just your personal opinion without actually owning one?

spongier?

the host is asking about drag racing not going shopping

Im glad Lith said it and not me lol...

But come on, a bit of logic.

The larger compressor wheel in the GT35 cannot be as efficient as the GT30. It flows more, and a reasonable amount more too considering the 50-70rwkw

From what i remember in my GT3X days, the rear ends on them are identical, its just the front wheel thats changed... so going to a larger front wheel whilst making more power/flow (clearly), is not going to have the same response.

A dyno print out isnt a good gauge either... anyone can load up harder and get a better curve.

Hey Dangerman hows things mate.

I think Lithium is refering to my HKS3037 on E85.

Heres a plot with Adrians and my car on the same dyno (Willall's)

GT3582 vs HKS3037 .68

Edit: Picture not working properly but is on the last page of the E85 thread up the top.^^^^^

    • Let's hope that's not a copy pump either. There were so many copies of them back in the day.
    • Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys
    • Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels
    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.
