Garrett Medium Frame Gtx Turbos

Lol. Thanks for eveyones advice. I'll go with bigger injectors without fuel rail. What else do you suggest? I have to be AFMless. Do I just readd it to the piping to add a bot of an illusion? How is everyone getting away with mods. Eg how are you doing it?

Why does it have to be AFM less? Cause that along with ECU will definitely fail an inspection, if you aren't worried then sure, but personally I would stress about it everyday if it was my car.

So leave an AFM there, plugged in.

Who cares if it doesnt do anything.

Doesnt seem overly hard to me?!

Obviously lol. That's the first thing. But if they start to pull plugs n try to get it to stall I'm boned. There are some highly modified cars on here. Everyone telling me they constantly get dicked?

Wire the afm up via a relay to the ignitor ground or something, car will still crank but won't start, I've seen people do it before including a whole fake loom for the ecu lol.

Haha. But surely everyone doesn't have to do this for their cars??!!

That's cause you don't live in Vic ya penis.

AFM has always been easy for the EPA, start car, pull plug. Car should run rough and die if rev'd. If it doesn't, instant fail :)

But anyway, this is far off track now. Plenty of threads in the Vic area. And therest is just common sense (like using a factory fuel rail and airbox that offer no benefit by changing em in the first place).

I ordered my GTX3071 from the US over a week ago and just found out there is at least another 2 week wait for Garrett to supply it. Apparently Garrett underestimated demand and are scrambling to manufacture more. I may just get the GT3076 sent over but is there a better option? I am stuck with the 60mm rear wheel as I have a Tial 0.82 housing coming over too.

Perhaps the GTX3076 would do nicely, anyone have dyno results from one yet? I have a 4000 stall and would like most of the boost on by then preferably.

76 for sure!

Nil stock of any GTX turbos... 2 week wait at least.

It looks like people are keen to try the new range out. I think I will wait and just shove the stock turbo back in for now. :yucky: I wonder how 1000cc injectors on e85 will work. lol.

My brother just got his car back with a gtx3076. Made an impressive 261rwkw on 14psi. Rb25 neo

This is just a base tune and is being tuned on LPG + 18-19psi. Should see over 300rwkw easy

modern bolt on gtr lowmounts would be a godsend, even if oil lines etc didn't connect easily

I want -10 power with -5 response

>:(

Ha. Yeah I said i am running RS's/-10's and straight away he said 'ah yes. The laggy choof choof surging monsters' He got it in one!!!

No idea who I spoke to. A guy roughly mid 30's, blonde hair, medium to large build. When I asked about GTX wheel low mounts for a GTR he asked me if I had any info on them.... as they have NONE.

GARRETT GET OFF YOUR ARSE!

    • So next year I am looking at upgrading from my VE SS bomadore ute to something more refined.  I wanted to stick with a V8 but not anything German or Australian, either a coupe or a sedan. So if I wanted anything newish that limited my options to either the Lexus RCF which I quite like. But with the price they demand and a kid on the way a 2 door coupe is probably not going to be the best idea. The next best thing would be the ISF but the newest models are 2014 and commanding over 60k and even the older 2008 models in ok condition starting around 35k is kind of bullshit. So I figured if I could not have the noise I could perhaps make do with easy power. Enter the infinity Q50 or Skyline equivalent. The price difference between the 300 and 400hp models seems a bit crazy. Right now there is 300hp Q50 one on carsales from a dealer with 61km for 27k drive away. If I wanted to get a 400hp Red or 400R car the prices seem to start at 43k From my limited research it seems that the only differences are that the 400r/Red Red runs more boost and a more aggressive tune. There are are turbine speed sensors on the turbos. Has 2 pumps for the water to air intercooler. Runs an engine oil cooler. I'm guessing that the exterior trims might look a little more sporty as well. I had a lazy look for upgrades to bridge the gap on z1motorsports They have kits that upgrade the water to air heat exchanger as well as the coolant pump which should give a non Red/400r better intercooling temps than the stock Red/400r. I added an engine oil cooler with a thermostat as well to try and make things as close as possible. Obviously the ECU is going to need a tickle. Having not done much in the way of research they also sell a ECU flashing tool with pre loaded tunes that are supposed to boost the non Red/400R by 100hp which adds 1k USD to the cost. The total cost of the parts @ the current time including shipping and taxes worked out to be $4350 AUD. Personally I would rather get the car tuned on a dyno which would probably add more cost Assuming the worst that you got a workshop to install the new parts I would guess no more than 5 hours would be required in the worst case @ 5 x $150 per hour = $750 So the total cost could be around $5100 So for easy number 5k + 27K = 32k I guess that would leave some change left over to swap out the open diff and fit a LSD Any thoughts?      
    • Right, not sure why I thought it to be a lean spike. It might be fixable with modern card-style hot film MAFs which have some design features to avoid counting reversion flow but I've never tried it myself.

    • I'm only going to hassle you for posting links to images. It's against my policy to click links that could be some nasty payload. Sadly, you need to make 9 more posts before you can just stick the images directly in a post, unless @PranK sees this and bends the rule for you.
