only the bastardised ones with "bolt on" rear housings have cropped turbines. the proper gt30s with a proper IW housing have the 60mm turbine

All Garrett GT turbos have cropped wheels except the 60mm one. And the 60mm version came out after the rest so it isn't even the 'original' 3071 that everyone claims it to be.

go cut 4mm off your turbine and leave it in the same housing, see how it goes.

find out exactly what cartridge you have then find a housing to suit. you cant use a gt30 housing designed for a gt30 turbine if you have a cropped 56mm turbine.

Where are you getting this information?

4 of the 5 GT3071R's come with cropped turbines. I think you are getting your facts mixed up

yes they do, but they all come with t25 flanged turbine housings too. the only t3 one is the full 60mm version, which is the one everyone on here always talks about and trys to get

Yeah, the one this guy has is the 700382-12 with a VG30 rear housing though. Sonic do a 0.73 rear housing that can be machined to suit everything from a GT2860RS to a GT3076R -12. It's a T3 flange and Skyline dump compatable.

That is the housing he needs to go to.

It flows more than the VG30 housing so it will take care of his power fall-off problem

if i got .82 rear how much response will i lose

If you go to a 0.82 rear housing you will need to use the stupid XR6 dump flange so it will need to be modified.

The typical response lose expected from 0.6 - 0.8 would be somewhere around 400 rpm.

But you also have a smaller, more restrictive housing on at the moment.

Moving to the 0.7 rear will allow more flow all round and will retain the skyline 6 bolt dump pattern.

I would say - expect 1 bar at approx 3800 (as that turbo is known to be particularly laggy)

17.4psi before 3k? That sounds ridiculous, I mean my stock R34 turbo only hits full boost (10.5psi) at about 3200rpm and I thought stock turbos are the some of the most responsive turbos out there... Is my turbo laggy or something?

    • Thanks for that Paul.  Do you think if I posted a picture you'd be able to remember where it went? 
    • Sorry Duncan, I didn't get a notification for the replies.  Thanks for responding!  It's a full Android device, but does allow you to use CarPlay/AA as well.  This is the one I bought from NaviRS on AliExpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006368602668.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.111.59aa1802JDzQ0E - the 2K 8G-256G CAM variant but it seems to have gone up by £170 since I bought it!  My purchase was £307.14.   It's not the fastest thing in the world but performs perfectly adequately.  It stays on standby unless I disconnect the battery and let it power down, then it's just a fairly standard Android bootup time from cold.  The DSP Equaliser is very nice and made the standard stereo system sound pretty decent compared to the stock screen.  Perhaps I can take a video of it when I get a sec. It *allegedly* supports the reverse camera, but I'm yet to get that working.  It has options for reverse cam (a camera unit can be bought separately) or 360 cameras (also bought separately).  To be fair it doesn't seem to detect that the shifter was put into reverse but I'm working on a theory about this as well.  At the moment I'm going without which is a bit annoying considering the car is an absolute canal barge but so far I haven't caused any damage I'll grab a picture of the wire I'm missing later today when I can get outside.  My theory, by the by, is that not only is the head unit different, but the CANBUS network has different signals for the different years.  I think this because I have a spare AC panel from a newer Infiniti G37 (as opposed to my Nissan panel) which wouldn't control anything except the volume when I had it wired up with the stock system.  I'm going to throw it back in and see if the screen will respond to it.  I've just ordered an arduino CANBUS module so I can have a look at the signals going around the car and see if I can spot anything.  I'm thinking if I can work out what it's expecting vs what it's getting I might be able to translate and relay the signal back but so far just a theory anyway. I also found this on my travels, so far the only one that specifically matches my car: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002822934280.html?spm=a2g0s.imconversation.0.0.33433e5fgttovi If you look at the picture of the before, it has the card reader slot, and the picture of the head unit is exactly the same as the one pictured in my original post.  I asked if they sell the cables separately but sadly they won't.  I didn't want to just buy this one because it's a super old Android version and only dual core - likely slow as hell. 
    • As above, you did refill the coolant and burp the system before running it again didn't you?
    • To be fair - you see the same thing for every clutch. There's always someone making an installation error.
    • Just saw this, redacted names. It's on a R33 GTS-t Facebook group. Looks like still teething issues.
