Not arguing...just passing on my results with a few caveats. Three curves are

- RB20 TD06-20G 8cm housing (call it 0.63)

- RB25 TD06-20G 8cm housing (call it 0.63)

- RB25 TD06-20G 12cm housing (call it 0.84)

Was largely looking at spool and power they would make. Didnt want to spend too much money on dyno time so only rough tune enough to get a feel for where they were headed. Between the 8cm and the 12cm I would go back to the 8cm. My T67 has a 10cm housing and hunting around for an 8cm housing at the moment for it

All are my car, same set of tyres. The RB25 is an R32 DE so I used the same 6boost manifold and Turbosmart gate, same Plazmaman plenum and R34 GTR cooler, injectors, PFC etc etc with no VCT. All that changed what the engine which was a truly bolt in affair.

GT3071 and TD06-20G are different but not hugely. 68mm vs 71mm compressor and 65mm vs ? GT30 are about 60mm arent they?

So different turbos with different trims but its a fair rule of thumb that they generally make about the same power as one another. 20G/3071 and 25G/3076 is not a bad starting point for assessing turbo sizes.

If its a street car running E85 then I say just slap on what you have and I think you will find it mega grunty and fun to drive. If you were buying a new turbo then perhaps it is not what you would spec up...but would certainly work and work well (remembering he has the turbo already and its a street car)

I am betting it will bag 310-330rwkws depending on what boost is up it and health of engine. Be way mroe grunty then any twin setup running -9s (I would imagine)

My R33 gtst has run a GT3071R 0.63 for the last 6 years on 13psi with no dramas and has great response. I am not real fussed on all the finer specs but it has got lazier over the last 2.5 years but still pulls hard. When it was on street rubber it was a wheel spin monster Hehe it was very snappy and responsive but did struggle to breath over 6800 rpm it is a great set up but it may struggle to breath up top with a 0.63.

But if you have one already just strap it on see what happens.

O yer I only run pump so maybe the corn juice will help.

    • Definitely didn't put a N/A cluster in instead? The speed sensor (location) is different in both cars.... I think. This will obviously stuff things up.
    • Nah not the throwout bearing, it's something internal. I already replaced the throwout bearing. Mechanic misdiagnosed my car and thought it was a spigot bearing, went to another bloke who said it was an input shaft bearing. (I replaced everything when I pulled out the gearbox but didn't open up the gearbox.   In this video at timestamp 6:05 : Mine has the same sound  min
    • It is definitely to space it out and away for clearance during compression, and possibly for spring clearance to upper arm. That latter would only be true for springs that are same-ish diameter to stockers, and so that probably doesn't apply to Teins or most other coilovers.
    • Yeah, a mechanic who knows these cars told me even if I get a brand new gearbox the noise will return but will be less noticeable. I've heard someone also they this noise came back after 3,000km on a new or reconditioned gearbox. It is pretty f**king annoying though just hearing groaning most of the time lol. I wonder if an aftermarket input shaft bearing would fix the problem or how they are built.
    • All RB gearbags, especially the big turbo box, have rollover noise. Mine certainly does. Always has. Sometimes is worse than others - no particular idea why, although it is probably temperature related. I have smurf jizz in mine and have had to have it in there from the first day the box went into teh car. It simply would not select gears with the engine on, on day one, with normal oil in there. And so, the blue stuff has probably ruined almost everything synchro related in the box. But it has taken 12 or 13 years to get to the point where I simply must replace the box. It has become increasingly baulky of late, which might be symptomatic of the way I've been driving it, as much as anything. I shall have to make some corrections when teh new box goes in. Input shaft bearing noise will decrease with clutch pedal pressed because the drive is removed. But yes, more often than not noises that work like that are associated with the throwout. It won't matter either way, new box will mean this one can be relegated to the parts pile.
