Hey guys just wondering if I can machine a HKS3037 Pro S cartridge into the housings? i went to per4manz in perth he recommended me the CHRA 700177-12, i was thinking of buying the cartridge from ATP from the states but they only offer these ones :

http://www.atpturbo.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=tp&Product_Code=CHRA-GT3076R&Category_Code=

Time to sell and upgrade IMO.

The existing housings would need to be machined to fit. Even if there is enough meat in the housings I think it would be a highly compromised setup.

By the time you sell your very in demand turbo kit you will be well on the way to paying for a new fitted GT3076.

No you can't really machine out those HKS GT"2835" Pro S housings .

Interestingly HKS used the same turbine housing castings in 0.68 and 0.87 A/Rs but they offset the housing in the Lathe to do the GT3037 version because the full sized GT30 turbine has a larger exducer diameter and would have broken into the waste gates outlet flow path .

With port shrouded compressor housings the radial slot is machined to suit the height of the lower or splitter blades leading edges and most wheels are different .

The thing people used to do to get a bit more out of a GT2835 Pro S was to use the larger 0.87 A/R turbine housing if they didn't already have one .

oh right, so pretty much disco i can't use any of the above CHRA's at all? cause my turbo builder said he could machine out the housings a little bit to suit the 700177-12 GT3076r CHRA but I had a read of your other thread and found that that is not the real GT3076r or something...

I may have missed it but what sort of power are you making and what are you looking for ?

I would have thought a 2835 Pro S would've made quite reasonable squirt though they may lose you the bit right down low .

I think you're at point where changing turbos could be expensive and maybe other upgrades like say better cams could help a bit .

hmmm well my cartridge is blown thats why im looking at upgrades disco...but i don't wnana buy a brand new turbo, so i was thinking get a 3076 cartridge and machine it in there cause it'd be the cheaper option machining will cost me from 100-200 and if i can get a 3076 cartridge from ATP for 870 its not too bad although i have been looking at KAMAK turbo's but thats too much messing around... the 2835 Pro S is good but im chasing more power lol somewhere in the 400+ ish hp, so disco in your opinion is the 700177-12 cartridge good for 400?

Cheers

You should be able to get the -3 cartridge I mentioned above locally for around $1100 if you ask nicely. My new cartridge was installed for that price by MTQ in Sydney after a friendly arm wrestle.

ATP cartridge will need to add shipping which should still come under $1000 but still worth considering buying locally.

Some mobs can rebuild Garrett GT BB cartridges and the economics revolve around whats worn or bent/broken .

The things that ae expensive are new turbines if the blades are amaged or the piston ring has eaten into its groove . When there is piston ring damage to the back of the turbine wheels hub you often find it in the same part of the cartridges bearing housing and its not economic to change both .

Buying locally usually costs a bit more but if the new item has issues getting exchanges can be more complicatede from OS .

New std cartridge is the way to go I think , if your heart is set on 300 Kw sell the 2835 and buy a GT3076R .

Cartridge number 700177-12 is a GT30 turbine based one but with the 7/7 bladed compressor wheel in 56 trim .

It is not part of the HKS range of Garrett GT BB turbos/cartridges which includes the better version of that -12 cartridge from the 56 trim GT3037/GT3076r which is 700177-7 .

To confirm the GT2835 56T HKS turbos use cartridge number 700177-3 according to my lists/notes .

It should be in that list I posted some years back of most of the GT30 BB turbo family .

    • The MX5 has had some annoying rattles in both front doors over bumps So I installed fancy pants door bushings, which stopped all of the rattles with the windows up, but........with the windows down there was still rattles, so after some googling,  and a chat with MX5 Mania, I got some new door to glass weather seals, all the rattles, windows up, or down, are gone now Shout out to MX5 Mania, the weather seals were on sale, and when I head to Dural to pick the up they even fitted them for me for free I did see a "really" nice Blue NA sitting out front   and this Black NC PRHT that looked like it has sat in the sun for its whole life and never had a wash, the clear coat was non-existent, an it looked horrible, really horrible, but, it had a nice turbo kit with over 200kw, the thing went like a cut snake, bagging the rears through the gears and dosing like a champ 😍 But, as I've always stated, I am keeping my NC na, I'm happy with the current power the car makes In other news: MX5 Mania do a drive in drive out turbo kit, the only minor additional part recommended for boosting my car, as it sits now, is a oil cooler, and that bonnet vents are definitely required for track use Aftermarket version look a bit to "racecar" spec I wonder how Focus RS bonnet vents would look?????
