New Garrett Gtx2860R / 2863R / 2867R

They spec the normal GTX2863 for 2000 bucks including the normal 3"/2" compressor housing for 2000 bucks, so an extra 200 bucks for a gtr style compressor housing machined out to fit doesn't seem that bad to me...

anyone have any thoughts on the response difference running GTX2863s on a 2.6 instead of a 2.8?

im trying to gauge how the'd go on mine after seeing the dyno plots on a 2.8. im guessing a similar difference between the -5 and GTX plots just moved slightly up the rpm scale?

Why bother....OK apart from Legality (which aftermarket turbos still dont cover you for).....

how did I know that video was what was in the link.

old tech twins vs new tech billet single

should have used a GT3582 from an XR6 turbo. that would have been a better comparison since the compressor wheels are all of similar design and the only variable would have been twin vs single.

What if he had used newer gtx2863 vs older gt3582 single?

I posted this in the comments of the video but I'm still awaiting a reply

To be fair, he is correct in that he's comparing two common setups. Not many are running around with GTX2863's still.

but it not about comparing "common" setups it was all about "low twins vs single".

his single setup uses a 50mm ex gate which looks to be to atmosphere, plus his 3.5" exhaust which helps with the response mid topend power.

he should have plumbed the gate back in before the cat. to make it a fair fight.

Not siding either way as I'm after a stock appearance myself.

+1 for stock appearance

That video is a good summary of my feeling going from twins to the 6262

He seems to have epic power from -9s though or a slightly happy dyno?

-7 housings with -5 wheels I believe, Pete.

^yeah, that's why I'm super keen to see a pair of GTX2860's in -7 housings. I'm curious how hard they'll go in the .42 compressor covers.

Also worth noting is the stock head work and tomei poncams with only 9.1mm lift!

GTX2863 are not bolt on. He says in the opening lines what the comparison is and goes through all the pros and cons.

Haven't most of the graphs of gtx turbos proven they don't spool quicker but they make more power?

So using an older gt style 3582 would just not make as much top end

    • So.... when I'm finally getting around to having my power steering leak sorted, now it looks like I've got the same issue most A/T Skylines are having. My A/T light will randomly come on and I'm stuck in 3rd gear until I turn the car off and on again. Only 3 weeks ago I did a complete transmission service: Oil flush + new gasket + new filter. This came out of nowhere!! It wasn't like the car was driven hard. I drove about 3 mins down the road to get fuel and boom!!!  Anyway, I have a few questions and hope you fine people can help me out here. All questions are in red. 1. The solenoids: I was looking at the parts catalogue in Amayama and I could only find the Solenoids as an assembly. https://www.amayama.com/en/part/nissan/319404ax05 I read in another thread that Solenoid A = 31940-4AX02 & Solenoid B = 31940-4AX05 but the Amayama product has only the code of B. Is this the right part? Can anyone who has done the Solenoid changes or seen them confirm if this is the complete set of A & B?   2. Gasket and Filter: I'm not going to try change the solenoids myself because it seems difficult to do in a home garage with just 2 jack stands. I plan to take it to a shop and get it changed. I was also going to buy the transmission sump gasket at the same time so I don't reuse the same gasket. Should I just use the existing gasket as it has only been on the car since OCT 19th? (~3 weeks) Should I be buying a brand-new gasket and a filter? Does this job involve taking the filter out?   Thanks in advance to everyone. It's hard to find a video of someone doing a solenoid change on a R34 so any help you can give answering my remaining questions would make me less stressed.
    • Yea - From what I have seen from the video, the car idles like any R34 lol 50PSI of fuel pressure is hardly super abnormal, the regulator is working because the pressure remains static when the throttle gets revved, i.e pressure remains the same when manifold vaccuum changes. Bigger pumps on stock rails always bumped the pressure in the rail without using an aftermarket regulator to change that. Do you know what your IAC is actually doing? Has there been any data showing the stepper motor % etc? There's no way your idle is actually moving around the way the cluster(s) are indicating. You would hear the difference with the engine RPM flying to 3k and 1k in mere seconds. I'd be checking the wiring to the tacho. What the tacho is telling you and what the engine/ecu is telling you are different things. I assume your ECU doesn't display the spike. So whatever is telling the tacho to be at X rpm is doing something weird. When the going gets insane, you're on the wrong path. You've ruled out plenty of things that are working correctly/aren't the issue. Your idle isn't doing what the tacho is indicating. You have two seperate issues, I don't think they are linked, and the idle seems reasonably okay unless it's stalling which.. well, it hasn't. Troubleshoot the stall if it occurs by figuring out what your IAC is doing vs what it is being told to do.
    • So awesome! I love the RB with the exhaust on display.
    • NO HITS PRICE DROP   ENGINE - $8.5k ONO TRANSMISSION - $1.8k ONO  
    • If it has had a code in the recent past, the code should still be there waiting to be read.
