So my brothers GT3076R packed it in. He's been through a few now so its time to give garrett the flick royale.

Throw some opinions around guys. Is it T67 time or TD06H 25G? Is for a Sigma 2.6L which made light work of spooling the 3076R .63 (spooled very early, very easy).

I had a 34 turbo on mine and it used to spool in reverse :P

It had a ugly T3/T4 thing on it before that and was laggy as! But the car was a heap of shit haha

I'd say the smart thing to do would be work out what he has wrong with his setup which resulted in the GT3076Rs dying, instead of just changing brands

I already know why it died. The reason for the change is that it is expensive to repair the garrett when these things happen, not because it's necessarily the turbos fault. Garrett themselves no longer make a rebuild kit, so the only things to salvage are the front and rear housings.

A new core is $850+ and being the 3rd one the car has had we are finding them to be a little too delicate for the agricultural spec Astron 2.6.. So its time to move to something which is cheaply replaced/repaired in the event of failure (spare T67 cores are about $350 delivered).

A Kando is $750 delivered and I can cheaply replace it when he blows it up, which he will. He doesn't need/deserve a ball bearing turbo on there let along the Kando anyway lol

LOL! the GT30 was similar... it almost always has boost. it only really developed a 'turbo' character when he put a massive stage 5 cam in it.

They do but for some reason they only sell them as hybrids of the two.

Ie 3560-1 or T04R82.

I'm leaning toward a simple T67 atm as its not far off what he had in all ways and is cheaply and easily replaced.

He's quoted me on repairing the GT30 core with a G3 core and reusing the compressor side and housings... But turbine would change and cost is up there with a replacement core.

am liking the kando more atm due to availability and cost effective replacement if anything goes wrong. Knowing this motor its likely to root another turbo, and knowing Stao he's likely to want to fix it for free every time. This is just a cleaner arrangement and I can maintain a good relationship too.

am potentially looking at a tial .63 housing on one of his L2 74mm items for the SR though. I think he's onto something awesome there

New results from td06sh-25g 10cm on sr22 with 260 12.5mm cams.. 300rwkw by 4500rpm... 8500rpm rev limit.. sequential box = mental.

Nice. After my playing with turbos I was just going to go with my one but went T67 just so I could baseline my results against others as I am still not sure about the performance of my new kinder surprise engine. I have said this before but this time will follow through. Need to get my car over to you for a few runs so I can understand whether its far off what a T67 setup can do,

I am making 325rwklws at 18psi falling to 16psi from about 5,500rpm onwards. After PI am going to make a few changes then will give it a few runs. Feels pretty healthy at 16psi and will be pretty easy on the engien and the track...also a little easier on the RB20 box

Making a lot of power but falls away after 6500 - don't know why you'd want to spin it up to 8500.

With the goodness relatively concentrated in a tight band I'd want those ratios tightly spaced too :)

Great result though and full credit due - what does the boost curve look like?

its only just drops 25-30kw at 8500 (this run cut early as it was tuned up there already.... ) with 8500 it allows you to to change less on the track even with the close ratio sequential its mental... never driven anything like it with a healthy 4000rpm torque and power band its crazy.

when compared to a similar 3litre powered rb2530 neo with VCT (graph shows vct on and off) attached you can see just how insane the little sr is.. the rpm band is a similar 3500-4000rpm.

    • It's the adhesive holding the ceramic wheel to the shaft the fails on 90% of them.
    • Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.
    • I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out
    • hfygrte52 what side you looking for? Do you care what color car it's off? Found a white LH side on here: https://skylinespares.com.au/product/nissan-skyline-r33-coupe-rear-tail-light/   Aussie parts place but will ship to USA. Maybe get it before there's a tarrif on 25yo shit box parts
    • I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.
