New Garrett Gtx2860R / 2863R / 2867R

Well I for one am very impressed. Thats a fantastic power curve.

Its a prick of a job, but i have done it on my hks2530s, turbonetics make an oem size dual port actuator (part is 30326) that fits the hks actuator bracket. Need 1/4 UNF 80mm actuator rods from gcg for it to fit, and a 4 port mac valve but its a good option to keep the gate shut.

Are your gates creeping open at high exhaust manifold pressures or are the turbines just falling over?

I guess at those flow rates your post-turbine exhaust pressure becomes quite significant.

Is the turbonetics actuator any better than the ones hks offer? Edited by Chris32R

I was going to buy those turbonetics gates but I heard they clash and there's no room for them down there.

I've got them on an R34 and they fit fine, tight to get them on there with the turbos mounted and in the car, but possible. haven't had huge boost through them yet as we we having misfire issues. had to use the HKS actuator bracket as it holds the actuator with two bolts, so the turbonetics fits straight in, whereas the garret actuators are welded to their brackets.

Is the turbonetics actuator any better than the ones hks offer?

I didn't realise HKS did a dual port actuator? do they make one? the only reason I went the turbonetics ones is they were the only dual port stock looking gate on the market (that I could find)

the advantage of dual port is low preload, so the diaphram can respond faster. it uses MAP pressure to press the wastegate closed when the boost control solenoid is active.

so my gate is set to 8psi preload, so you can either go a single port 25psi preload actuator, and it will hold 25psi worth of pressure, or a dual port actuator at 8psi preload will hold it shut with 33psi of pressure. the more preload, the greater the offset.

also means I can run 8psi in Girlfriend/Valet mode, 22psi in Petrol mode and 28psi in E85 mode.

The same power has been made with 63's in gtx housings at the same boost.

I was talking about in regards to the turbonetics wastegate option for the low mounts they said it wouldn't fit on those housings and fit

ah which compressor cover are you using?.. I am using HKS2530 turbos. it may be that the bolt pattern on the back side of the GTX compressor housings are a larger radius from the centre, so the alignment wouldn't work, as that is where the actuator bracket attaches.

not sure if they are or not. but if people are putting -5 comp covers on a GTX core, then I dont think they would be different unless some machining of backplate to comp cover is required to fit the compressor cover to the core.

they're the all-in-one R34 Coils so no igniter required.

if healthy OEM coils can handle 660awhp@ 28+ psi in the car above, that's good enough for me. I'll just get a new set, but if i need to go beefier I'd be interested to hear what Ryan1200 and His mate have done.

Standard setup besides a set of Splitfire coil packs.

I know this, hence why I said I would grind out stock housings to suit.

It's not exactly easy, you'd be better just getting a set of -9 or stock front covers like I did for my gtx2860s.

I'm not sure the gain will justify it, but I am sure there will be a small gain

How long are you away from a result, Pete?

If anyone needs custom turbo work done the guy who owns the cars I posted results on works for MTQ in Brisbane and will happily make it happen. Ask for Rossco.

He did mine

Still a while, have not yet got engine or update on it, shall send the builder a message tommorow to see about that actually.

Considering Getting a shop to put it in and getting it running to save time and prevent me making cockups

    • The two diagrams are equivalent. The R32 one is just one sheet out of about 3 showing everything in the whole car all at once. And without knowing the functionality that occurs in the modules, they are both equally opaque.
    • 8v - 2.48ms 9v - 2.15ms 10v - 1.74ms 11v - 1.41ms 12v - 1.15ms 13v - 0.99ms 14v - 0.89ms 15v - 0.82ms 16v - 0.81ms I'm running these values on my RB20 Neo with 570cc Denso R35 stock jets and it's great. Also bought a set for my Legnum VR4, love these injectors!
    • Thanks for your reply,  Those blue/green wires running to the actuator aren't attached to anything, so I'm not sure how the central locking is still working. I will have to take a good look tomorrow, I don't have the car with me. After googling it seems like a pretty common aftermarket actuator which even uses the same green/blue wires the immobiliser required. i'll test everything tomorrow and if it's working i'll melt the solder, strip it, resolder and neaten it all up with some heat shrink. I don't have to understand it if it works hahaha I just don't want a fire/ short circuit. That R32 diagram looks more like a continuity chart? Can you make sense of this form the R34 manual? 10V is probably due to very flat battery, i'll recheck as well tomorrow, I did have to jump start it haha. Thanks again!  
    • So, COM doesn't mean comms. It means common. What common itself means will depend on the type of device. For a two directional actuator (ie, one that can push and pull on the same output rod) then the common will typically just be the earth connection. There will be at least 2 other wires. If you put 12V on one of the other wires, then the actuator will push. On the other 12V wire, it will pull. Can't quite make out what is going on with the wiring of your actuator. It appears to have several wires at the actuator plug, but there only appears to be 2 wires where its loom approaches the door control module, with at least one of the others cut off. I don't know these actuators off by heart. I'd have to look at a wiring diagram for one before knowing what the wires were about, and that's despite me having to replace one in my car not all that long ago. Just not interesting enough to have dedicated memory set aside for trivia like that any more. That actuator is an aftermarket one, not the original one, which probably died and was replaced. That might require some sort of bodge job on wiring to make it work. Although nothing should justify the bodginess of the bodge job done. As to the soldering job on the door module's loom plug. Ahhahhahaha. Yes, very nasty. Again, I cant tell you what any of those wires do. You'd need to study the R34 wiring diagram (if you can find one that shows the door module). I don't think I have any. I'd have to study the R32 diagram to start to understand what mine is doing, and again, even though I've had a problem with mine for the last 25 years (where it locks the passenger door when the driver's window reaches top or bottom of travel) I'm just not interested enough to try to to work it out. So long as it's not burning down, it's fine with me. Here's the R32 GTR diagram, which, confusingly, has rear door lock actuators and window motors on it!! As you can see, unless you understand the functions of the door lock timer and the power window amplifier, you'll never be able to work out how it works just from the diagram. I don't imagine that the R34 one is any better. Hopefully an R34 aware bod can help. FWIW, the two wires that are cut and joined look like they are both power supply - so hopefully it is not fatal to join them. The 10V you measured on the cut off free end of one of them is concerning. You'd expect 12V, and it might be the reason for the bodge job joining them together.
