Have run it on 1/8 mile here at 400rwkw ran 6.8@106mph. Was meant to race 1/4 mile tomorow but meeting cancelled.

Wow, it's going to be nasty next time - well into the tens at that rate!

FP have dropped prices on a bunch of their turbos, some would be the ones particularly good for Skylines:

Well him or mark at gt pumps can both make them. Mark at g g pumps has not replied to my email yet. Kando has made some hta wherls for mitsi turbos but not garrett he said. So does have some sizes slready on his cnc computer. Im also very wary to get him to make me one to put on a 3076 I have laying hear in the shed. Does fp hta sell just the comp wheel

Lol updates will come soon from mine, not sure where the others are up too.... From what i know there were a couple of others keen on the HTA but not sure who has commited too it!

I ordered mine direct from Forced Performance.

I have my HTA, hope to have it running by mid Oct...

Knowing that is 10mm more compressor on a comparable dyno to 34GeeTeeTee makes me all jittery. That 40kw advantage is shadowed by the outright potential of this thing... And look at the way it aggressively stands up at the 3.7 mark and does a pretty decent job of holding on to its torque too.

That must be freaking scary to drive. I am very jealous.

Good work sky30.

Just emailed kando dynamics and he is quite happy to make hta billet wheels as long as I can supply him with a example or drawing of the wheel? What do you guys think?

Honestly you might just want to source me a 2nd hand HTA turbo and I can have it copied and modified in Australia to what ever shape you want at a fraction of the time.

How ever it takes lot of time and effort to develop a successful compressor wheel, even thou been a competitor I respect their work. Which I'm happy to spend time and modify one of my own wheels to match or beat their performance but I will never copy their work.

Obviously unlike people marks their profits based on copying other people's hard work, since the formation of their business all they've done is making good counterfeits out of many successful competitors products then dump them at a fraction of the costs. That is particularly harmful for the original developers, if that carries on then no one will be welling to invest their time and efforts in better products.

So if you want a HTA item and can't afford it now, then save up for it with respect. Do not cheap it out.

Agreed, it looks like a wicked street setup and still capable of more - it looks pretty much like a normal GT3582R spool but GT3582R+ power which is definitely nice.

:cheers: Awesome attitude :) Would be interesting to see if you could develop wheels to match or beat their performance, I'd certainly get in behind if there is a reliable more local product which could do what the HTAs do all things being equal.

In other news - FP have released a Super 99 HTA turbo, a 103lb/min T3 flanged (hopefully they release other flange versions - but still) turbo capable of >1000hp. MENTAL!

I seen that on there eeb page Lithium. Looks promising. Stao you should try create some new wheels that match ir beat the hta comp wheels as Lithium mentioned. I always prefer to go local if I can. I just dont know what to do im not using the plain new gt3076 I have in the shed. I may as well sell it and look into something like hta 3076 whole tufbo. At work cant fully write everything I wanted to.

Josh.

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
